Centromere interactions promote the maintenance of the multipartite genome in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Project description:Many pathogens and symbionts contain multipartite genomes, but how they are stably maintained is poorly understood. The plant pathogen, Agrobacterium tumefaciens, contains four replicons. Recent work indicates that their replication origins cluster at cell poles in a manner that depends on their ParB-family centromeric proteins. Here, we provide evidence that centromeric clustering is mediated by interactions between these centromeric proteins. We further show that the disruption of centromere clustering results in the loss of replicons. Our data establish the role of centromeric clustering in multipartite genome maintenance.

Conformation and dynamic interactions of the multipartite genome in Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Project description:Bacterial species from diverse phyla contain multiple replicons, yet how these multipartite genomes are organized and segregated during the cell cycle remains poorly understood. Agrobacterium tumefaciens has a 2.8 Mb circular chromosome (Ch1), a 2.1 Mb linear chromosome (Ch2), and two large plasmids (pAt and pTi). We used this alpha proteobacterium as a model to investigate the global organization and temporal segregation of a multipartite genome. Using Chromosome Conformation Capture (Hi-C) assays, we demonstrate that both the circular and the linear chromosomes but neither of the plasmids have their left and right arms juxtaposed from their origins to their termini, generating inter-arm interactions that require the broadly conserved structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complex. Moreover, our studies revealed two types of inter-replicon interactions: “ori-ori clustering” in which the replication origins of all four replicons interact, and “Ch1-Ch2 alignment” in which the arms of Ch1 and Ch2 interact linearly along their lengths. We show that the centromeric proteins (ParB1 for Ch1 and RepBCh2 for Ch2) are required for both types of inter-replicon contacts. Finally, using fluorescence microscopy, we validated the clustering of the origins and observed their frequent colocalization during segregation. Altogether, our findings provide a high-resolution view of the conformation of a multipartite genome. We hypothesize that inter-centromeric contacts promote the organization and maintenance of diverse replicons.

Centromere Interactions Promote the Maintenance of the Multipartite Genome in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Project description:Many pathogens or symbionts of animals and plants contain multiple replicons, a configuration called a multipartite genome. Multipartite genomes enable those species to replicate their genomes faster and better adapt to new niches. Despite their prevalence, the mechanisms by which multipartite genomes are stably maintained are poorly understood. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a plant pathogen that contains four replicons: a circular chromosome (Ch1), a linear chromosome (Ch2), and two large plasmids. Recent work indicates that their replication origins are clustered at the cell poles in a manner that depends on their ParB family centromeric proteins: ParB1 for Ch1 and individual RepB paralogs for Ch2 and the plasmids. However, understanding of these interactions and how they contribute to genome maintenance is limited. By combining genome-wide chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) assays, chromatin-immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq), and live cell fluorescence microscopy, we provide evidence here that centromeric clustering is mediated by interactions between these centromeric proteins. We further show that the disruption of centromere clustering results in the loss of replicons. Our data establish the role of centromeric clustering in multipartite genome stability. IMPORTANCE About 10% of sequenced bacteria have multiple replicons, also known as multipartite genomes. How these multipartite genomes are maintained is still poorly understood. Here, we use Agrobacterium tumefaciens as a model and show that the replication origins of the four replicons are clustered through direct interactions between the centromeric proteins; disruption of origin clustering leads to the loss of replicons. Thus, our study provided evidence that centromeric clustering is important for maintaining multipartite genomes.

Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 whole-genome tiling microarray design and validation

Project description:This research focuses on the design, manufacturing and validation of a new Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 whole-genome tiling microarray platform for novel RNA transcript discovery. A whole-genome tiling microarray allows both annotated genes as well as previously unknown RNA transcripts to be detected and quantified at once. The Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 genome is re-acquired with next-generation sequencing and then used to design the tilinlg microarray with the thermodynamic analysis program Picky. Validations are performed by subjecting Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 under various growth conditions and then using the tling microarrays to verify expected gene expression patterns.

Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 root transcriptome response to Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58

Project description:As sessile organisms, plants require dynamic pathways in order to recognize pathogens and coordinate plant defenses by signalling. Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 is able to avoid triggering plant defenses prior to entering the cell, and therefore is only detected once infection has begun making Agrobacterium a plant pathogen to numerous plant species. Understanding plant responses to Agrobacterium will be useful in improving plant defenses and potentially may also improve plant transformation efficiency. Microarrays were utilized for detailing the global gene expression pattern in A. thaliana Col-0 roots in response to A. tumefaciens C58 for the identification of differentially expressed genes.

Linear dicentric bacterial chromosomes in Agrobacterium tumefaciens natural isolates reveal common constraints for replicon fusion

Project description:Multipartite bacterial genome organization can confer advantages including coordinated gene regulation and faster genome replication, but is challenging to maintain. Agrobacterium tumefaciens lineages often contain a circular chromosome (Ch1), a linear chromosome (Ch2), and multiple plasmids. We previously observed that in some stocks of the lab model strain C58, Ch1 and Ch2 were fused into a linear dicentric chromosome. Here we analyzed Agrobacterium natural isolates from the French Collection for Plant-Associated Bacteria (CFBP) and identified two strains with fused chromosomes. Chromosome conformation capture identified integration junctions that were different from the C58 fusion strain. Genome-wide DNA replication profiling showed both replication origins remained active. Transposon sequencing revealed that partitioning systems of both chromosome centromeres were essential. Importantly, the site-specific recombinases XerCD are required for the survival of the strains containing the fusion chromosome. Our findings show that replicon fusion occurs in natural environments and that balanced replication arm sizes and proper resolution systems enable the survival of such strains.
