Project description:Borrelia burgdorferi, a causative agent of Lyme disease, contains the most segmented bacterial genome known to date, with one linear chromosome and over twenty plasmids. How this unusually complex genome is organized, and whether and how the different replicons interact are unclear. We recently demonstrated that B. burgdorferi is polyploid and the copies of the chromosome and plasmids are regularly spaced in each cell, which is critical for faithful segregation of the genome to daughter cells. Regular spacing of the chromosome is regulated by two separate partitioning systems (parBS and parAZ) and the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) protein. Here, using chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C), we characterized the conformation of the B. burgdorferi genome and the interactions between the replicons. We uncovered that although the linear chromosome lacks contacts between the two replication arms, the two telomeres are in frequent contact. Moreover, several plasmids specifically interact with the chromosome oriC region, and a subset of plasmids interact with each other more than with others. We found that SMC and the SMC-like MksB protein mediate long-range interactions on the chromosome, but they minimally affect plasmid-chromosome or plasmid-plasmid interactions. Finally, we found that disruption of the two partition systems leads to chromosome restructuring, correlating with the mis-positioning of chromosome oriC. Altogether, this study revealed the conformation of a complex genome and analyzed the contribution of the partition systems and SMC family proteins to this organization. This work expands the understanding of the organization and maintenance of multipartite bacterial genomes.

Project description:Lyme disease is a result from an infection by the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi, and is the leading vector-borne disease in North America. Due to the genomic and proteomic variability of different B. burgdorferi isolates, the study and further comparison of their proteome is key to understand the biology and infectivity of these spirochetes. Mass spectrometry-based proteomics was used to assemble peptide datasets of laboratory isolates B31, MM1, B31-ML23, and the infective isolates B31-5A4, B31-A3, and 297, as well as other public datasets, and is publicly available as the Borrelia PeptideAtlas (http://www.peptideatlas.org/builds/borrelia/). These datasets include information on total proteome, secretome, and membrane proteome of the B. burgdorferi.

Project description:RNA was isolated from late-log pahse wild-type Borrelia burgdorferi B31 and the bb0647 mutant grown in BSKH media at 37 degree, 5% CO2. cDNA was synthesized, labeled and hybridized to the 70mer oligonucleotide B. burgdorferi array. Slides were scanned using axon scanner and image were analyzed using GenePix 6.0. Dta were further analysed using the professional software Acuity 4.o, based on a ratio-based normalization.

Project description:Lyme borreliosis is a disease caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato bacteria. Borrelia burgdorferi is known to induce prolonged extrafollicular immune responses and abnormal germinal center formation. However, the mechanism behind this is poorly understood. The extrafollicular response is characterized by strong plasmablast induction and by an IgM, IgG3, and IgG2b dominant antibody production. These antibodies do not generate a neutralizing type of immunity, and the bacteria eventually establish a persistent infection. Here, we performed single-cell RNA sequencing to characterize the immune landscape of lymph node lymphocytes in the early Borrelia burgdorferi infection in a murine model.
