Project description:The aim of this research was to isolate purple bacteria from waste that degrade plastics. Using metagenomic techniques, bacteria living in plastic debris were identified, and subsequently the metabolic pathways and proteins involved in them were studied using metaproteomics.

Project description:Collimonas is a genus of soil bacteria which comprises three recognized species: C. fungivorans, C. pratensis and C. arenae. The bacteria belonging to this genus share the ability to lyse chitin (chitinolysis) and feed on living fungal hyphae (mycophagy), but they differ in colony morphology, physiological properties and antifungal activity. In order to gain a better insight into the genetic background underlying this phenotypic variability of collimonads, we investigated the variability in the genomic content of five strains representing the three formally recognized Collimonas species. The genomic content of four test strains was hybridized on an array representing the reference strain C. fungivorans Ter331.

Project description:Dictyostelium discoideum amoebae feed by ingesting bacteria, then killing them in phagosomes. Ingestion and killing of different bacteria have been shown to rely on largely different molecular mechanisms. One would thus expect that D. discoideum adapts its ingestion and killing machinery when encountering different bacteria. In this study, we investigated by RNA sequencing if and how D. discoideum amoebae respond to the presence of different bacteria by modifying their gene expression patterns. Each bacterial species analyzed induced a specific modification of the transcriptome. Bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, Klebsiella pneumoniae, or Mycobacterium marinum induced a specific and different transcriptional response, while Micrococcus luteus did not trigger a significant gene regulation. Although folate has been proposed to be one of the key molecules secreted by bacteria and recognized by hunting amoebae, it elicited a very specific and restricted transcriptional signature, distinct from that triggered by any bacteria analyzed here. Our results indicate that D. discoideum amoebae respond in a highly specific, almost non-overlapping manner to different species of bacteria. We additionally identify specific sets of genes that can be used as reporters of the response of D. discoideum to different bacteria.

Project description:A prototype oligonucleotide microarray was designed to detect and identify viable bacterial species with the potential to grow of common beer spoilage microorganisms from the genera Lactobacillus, Megasphaera, Pediococcus and Pectinatus. Probes targeted the intergenic spacer regions (ISR) between 16S and 23S rRNA, which were amplified in a combination of reverse transcriptase (RT) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) prior to hybridization. This method allows the detection and discrimination of single bacterial species in a complex sample. Furthermore, microarrays using oligonucleotide probes targeting the ISR allow the distinction between viable bacteria with the potential to grow and non-growing bacteria. The results demonstrate the feasibility of oligonucleotide microarrays as a contamination control in food industry for the detection and identification of spoilage microorganisms within mixed population.

Project description:Humans and microorganisms, both symbiotic and pathogenic, have evolved means to communicate through the dissemination of biological signals. In addition to small molecules and proteins, mobile small RNAs (sRNAs) have recently emerged as signal molecules that mediate inter-species crosstalk by functional RNA interference (RNAi). However, the trafficking of sRNAs between humans and microorganisms, as well as the resulting biological consequences, remains unexplored. Here, we report that human cells secrete exosomes to deliver sRNAs into bacteria and induce bacterial gene silencing. The unprecedented RNAi in bacteria is accomplished primarily through translational repression without mRNA degradation, for which the participation of human AGO2 proteins co-transferred with sRNAs is essential. Exosome-mediated bacterial RNAi was further applied to fight superbug infection by targeting drug-resistance genes in a mouse model. Our discovery of this unique exosome-mediated sRNA delivery and gene silencing in bacteria paves the way to understanding and manipulating the cross-kingdom communication between human hosts and intestinal microbiota, as well as between humans and pathogenic bacteria.
