ABSTRACT EVANS, MATTHEW RICHARD. Global Effects of The ABSTRACT EVANS, MATTHEW RICHARD. Global Effects of the Transcriptional Regulators ArcA and FNR in Anaerobically Grown Salmonella enterica sv. Typhimurium 14028s. (Under the direction of Dr. Hosni M. Hassan.) The purpose of this research was to assess and compare the genome-wide transcriptional profiles and virulence in mice of the global regulators, FNR (Fumarate Nitrate Reductase) and ArcA (Aerobic Respiratory Control) in anaerobically grown Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium 14028s. FNR controls the expression of target genes by sensing and responding to the presence or absence of dioxygen via assembly-disassembly of oxygen-liable iron-sulfur clusters, while ArcA is a two-component (ArcA/ArcB), cytosolic redox response regulator. This work demonstrates that FNR is a positive regulator of motility, flagellar biosynthesis, and pathogenesis. An fnr mutant was non- motile, lacked flagella, attenuated for virulence in mice, and did not survive inside macrophages. In S. Typhimurium, as in Escherichia coli, the FNR modulon encompassed the core metabolic and energy functions as well as motility. Salmonella-specific genes/operons regulated by FNR included those required for ethanolamine utilization, newly identified flagellar genes (mcpAC, cheV), several virulence genes in Salmonella pathogenicity island 1 (SPI-1), and the srfABC operon. ArcA serves as a transcriptional repressor/activator coordinating cellular metabolism and motility. An arcA mutant was non-motile, lacked flagella, and was as virulent as the wild-type strain via intraperitoneal challenge in mice. In S. Typhimurium, as in E. coli, the ArcA modulon encompassed the core metabolic and energy functions as well as motility. Salmonella-specific genes/operons regulated by ArcA included those for propanediol utilization, newly identified flagellar genes (mcpAC, cheV), Gifsy- 1 prophage genes, and a few virulence genes located in SPI-3 (mgtBC, slsA, STM3784). Regulation by either ArcA or FNR in S. Typhimurium is similar, but distinct from that in E. coli. Genes/operons involved in the succinyl-CoA pathway, fatty acid degradation, flagellar biosynthesis, motility, chemotaxis, cytochrome oxidase complexes are regulated similarly in the two organisms by ArcA. Genes/operons involved in aerobic metabolism, NO• detoxification, flagellar biosynthesis, motility and chemotaxis, and anaerobic carbon utilization are regulated similarly in the two organisms by FNR. Herein, we present the first report on the global role of these two redox regulators in S. Typhimurium. According this study, we hypothesize that FNR plays a more heirarchical role than ArcA in pathogenesis and during the transition between aero- and anaerobiosis in the host. Furthermore, when comparing the motility and virulence results from our work on FNR to those on ArcA, we show that the lack of motility does not necessarily correspond to the lack of virulence in S. Typhimurium. Global Effects of the Transcriptional Regulators ArcA and FNR in Anaerobically Grown Salmonella enterica sv.

  • Pneumoniae CG43
    YjcC, a c-di-GMP Phosphodiesterase Protein, Regulates the Oxidative Stress Response and Virulence of Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43 Ching-Jou Huang1, Zhe-Chong Wang2, Hsi-Yuan Huang3, Hsien-Da Huang2,3, Hwei-Ling Peng1,2* 1 Institute of Molecular Medicine and Biological Technology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsin Chu, Taiwan, Republic of China, 2 Department of Biological Science and Technology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsin Chu, Taiwan, Republic of China, 3 Institute of Bioinformatics and Systems Biology, National Chiao Tung University, Hsin Chu, Taiwan, Republic of China Abstract This study shows that the expression of yjcC, an in vivo expression (IVE) gene, and the stress response regulatory genes soxR, soxS, and rpoS are paraquat inducible in Klebsiella pneumoniae CG43. The deletion of rpoS or soxRS decreased yjcC expression, implying an RpoS- or SoxRS-dependent control. After paraquat or H2O2 treatment, the deletion of yjcC reduced bacterial survival. These effects could be complemented by introducing the DyjcC mutant with the YjcC-expression plasmid pJR1. The recombinant protein containing only the YjcC-EAL domain exhibited phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity; overexpression of yjcC has lower levels of cyclic di-GMP. The yjcC deletion mutant also exhibited increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation, oxidation damage, and oxidative stress scavenging activity. In addition, the yjcC deletion reduced capsular polysaccharide production in the bacteria, but increased the LD50 in mice, biofilm formation, and type 3 fimbriae major pilin MrkA production. Finally, a comparative transcriptome analysis showed 34 upregulated and 29 downregulated genes with the increased production of YjcC. The activated gene products include glutaredoxin I, thioredoxin, heat shock proteins, chaperone, and MrkHI, and proteins for energy metabolism (transporters, cell surface structure, and transcriptional regulation).

Abstract Background: Genomic islands are regions of bacterial genomes that have been acquired by horizontal transfer and often contain blocks of genes that function together for specific processes. Recently, it has become clear that the impact of genomic islands on the evolution of different bacterial species is significant and represents a major force in establishing bacterial genomic variation. However, the study of genomic island evolution has been mostly performed at the sequence level using computer software or hybridization analysis to compare different bacterial genomic sequences. We describe here a novel experimental approach to study the evolution of species-specific bacterial genomic islands that identifies island genes that have evolved in such a way that they are differentially-expressed depending on the bacterial host background into which they are transferred.

    Kumka and Bauer BMC Genomics (2015) 16:895 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-2162-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Analysis of the FnrL regulon in Rhodobacter capsulatus reveals limited regulon overlap with orthologues from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Escherichia coli Joseph E. Kumka and Carl E. Bauer* Abstract Background: FNR homologues constitute an important class of transcription factors that control a wide range of anaerobic physiological functions in a number of bacterial species. Since FNR homologues are some of the most pervasive transcription factors, an understanding of their involvement in regulating anaerobic gene expression in different species sheds light on evolutionary similarity and differences. To address this question, we used a combination of high throughput RNA-Seq and ChIP-Seq analysis to define the extent of the FnrL regulon in Rhodobacter capsulatus and related our results to that of FnrL in Rhodobacter sphaeroides and FNR in Escherichia coli. Results: Our RNA-seq results show that FnrL affects the expression of 807 genes, which accounts for over 20 % of the Rba. capsulatus genome. ChIP-seq results indicate that 42 of these genes are directly regulated by FnrL. Importantly, this includes genes involved in the synthesis of the anoxygenic photosystem. Similarly, FnrL in Rba. sphaeroides affects 24 % of its genome, however, only 171 genes are differentially expressed in common between two Rhodobacter species, suggesting significant divergence in regulation. Conclusions: We show that FnrL in Rba. capsulatus activates photosynthesis while in Rba. sphaeroides FnrL regulation reported to involve repression of the photosystem. This analysis highlights important differences in transcriptional control of photosynthetic events and other metabolic processes controlled by FnrL orthologues in closely related Rhodobacter species.

    Utilization of Synbiotics, Acidifiers, and a Polyanhydride Nanoparticle Vaccine in Enhancing the Anti-Salmonella Immune Response in Laying Hens Post-Salmonella Challenge Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ashley D. Markazi, M.S. Graduate Program in Animal Sciences The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee: Ramesh K. Selvaraj, Advisor Michael S. Lilburn, Co-Advisor Renukaradhya Gourapura Lisa Bielke Copyright by Ashley D. Markazi 2018 ABSTRACT Salmonellosis, a zoonotic disease caused by the bacterium Salmonella, is most commonly attributed to the consumption of poultry eggs and meat. The current project examined the effects of drinking water synbiotics, in-feed acidifiers, and a polyanhydride nanoparticle Salmonella vaccine in enhancing the anti-Salmonella immune response and decreasing Salmonella infection in laying hens. The synbiotic experiment was conducted to study the effects of drinking water supplementation of synbiotic product in laying hens with and without a Salmonella challenge. A total of 384 one-day-old layer chicks were randomly distributed to the drinking water synbiotic supplementation or control groups. At 14 wk of age, the birds were vaccinated with a Salmonella vaccine, resulting in a 2 (control and synbiotic) X 2 (non-vaccinated and vaccinated) factorial arrangement of treatments. At 24 wk of age, half of the birds in the vaccinated groups and all the birds that were not vaccinated were challenged with Salmonella Enterica serotype Enteritidis, resulting in a 3 (vaccinated, challenged, vaccinated+challenged) X 2 (control and synbiotic) factorial arrangement. At 8 d post-Salmonella challenge, synbiotic supplementation decreased (P = 0.04) cecal S.

  • The Escherichia Coli Narl Receiver Domain Regulates Transcription
    Katsir et al. BMC Microbiology (2015) 15:174 DOI 10.1186/s12866-015-0502-9 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The Escherichia coli NarL receiver domain regulates transcription through promoter specific functions Galit Katsir1,3,4, Michael Jarvis2,5, Martin Phillips1, Zhongcai Ma2,6 and Robert P. Gunsalus2,3* Abstract Background: The Escherichia coli response regulator NarL controls transcription of genes involved in nitrate respiration during anaerobiosis. NarL consists of two domains joined by a linker that wraps around the interdomain interface. Phosphorylation of the NarL N-terminal receiver domain (RD) releases the, otherwise sequestered, C-terminal output domain (OD) that subsequently binds specific DNA promoter sites to repress or activate gene expression. The aim of this study is to investigate the extent to which the NarL OD and RD function independently to regulate transcription, and the affect of the linker on OD function. Results: NarL OD constructs containing different linker segments were examined for their ability to repress frdA-lacZ or activate narG-lacZ reporter fusion genes. These in vivo expression assays revealed that the NarL OD, in the absence or presence of linker helix α6, constitutively repressed frdA-lacZ expression regardless of nitrate availability. However, the presence of the linker loop α5-α6reversedthisrepressionandalsoshowedimpairedDNAbindingin vitro.The OD alone could not activate narG-lacZ expression; this activity required the presence of the NarL RD. A footprint assay demonstrated that the NarL OD only partially bound recognition sites at the narG promoter, and the binding affinity was increased by the presence of the phosphorylated RD. Analytical ultracentrifugation used to examine domain oligomerization showed that the NarL RD forms dimers in solution while the OD is monomeric.

The association between egg contamination and foodborne outbreaks of SE suggests egg derived SE might be more adept to cause human illness than SE from other sources. Therefore, there is a need to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the ability of egg- derived SE to colonize the chicken intestinal and reproductive tracts and cause disease in the human host. To this end, the present study was carried out in three objectives. The first objective was to sequence two egg-derived SE isolates belonging to the PFGE type JEGX01.0004 to identify the genes that might be involved in SE colonization and/or pathogenesis.
