基于比较转录组学分析NaCl 胁迫影响德尔卑沙门氏菌的耐渗机制

【目的】研究高渗胁迫条件下德尔卑沙门氏菌(Salmonella enterica subsp.enterica Derby,S.Derby)的转录组调控机制,分析差异表达基因(differentially expressed genes,DEGs)表达水平,探究在高渗胁迫影响下德尔卑沙门氏菌耐渗反应的相关代谢通路。【方法】通过高渗胁迫诱导德尔卑沙门氏菌的耐渗性,提取菌株的总RNA,去除rRNA,构建cDNA文库。利用转录组测序技术及生物学信息技术分析相关DEGs,并通过实时荧光定量PCR(real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,qRT-PCR)进行验证。【结果】胁迫组德尔卑沙门氏菌通过转录组测序结果发现有3950个DEGs,其中具有显著上调的基因21个,显著下调基因38个。涉及到细胞膜蛋白、氨基酸的代谢等相关基因上调,协助德尔卑沙门氏菌在高渗环境中存活。与此同时,胁迫组德尔卑沙门氏菌的糖转运系统(sugar transport system,PTS)、糖酵解过程以及抗氧化性相关基因表达显著下调,这是由于高渗环境菌体需要在体内储存大量糖类等物质,从而降低了糖原的消耗,进而导致细胞外膜的脂多糖合成受到抑制,降低了高渗胁迫下德尔卑沙门氏菌细胞膜表面的O抗原的合成。【结论】高渗环境诱导后显著提高了德尔卑沙门氏菌的耐渗性,其中Na+/H+逆向转运蛋以及谷氨酸的代谢通路发挥着重要的作用,为进一步了解以及更好地控制其在食品中的污染提供了理论依据。

Structures of the O-polysaccharides of Salmonella enterica O59 and Escherichia coli O15

The O-polysaccharide of Salmonella enterica O59 was studied using sugar analysis and 2D ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, and the following structure of the tetrasaccharide repeating unit was established:→2)-β-d-Galp-(1→3)-α-d-GlcpNAc-(1→4)-α-l-Rhap-(1→3)-β-d-GlcpNAc-(1→Accordingly, the O-antigen gene cluster of S. enterica O59 includes all genes necessary for the synthesis of this O-polysaccharide. Earlier, another structure has been reported for the O-polysaccharide of Salmonella arizonae (S. enterica IIIb) O59, which later was found to be identical to that of Citrobacter (Citrobacter braakii) O35 and, in this work, also to the O-polysaccharide of Escherichia coli O15.     

Sequence analysis and characterization of sulfonamide resistance plasmid pRF-1 from Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis

The nucleotide sequence of a small plasmid, designated pRF-1, isolated from Salmonella enterica serovar Choleraesuis, was determined. We identified seven open reading frames (ORFs) encoded by 6066 nucleotides with a total G + C content of 53.6%. Analysis of the complete nucleotide sequence revealed a replicon of pRF-1 to have high similarity to the p15A origin of replication, with a possible cer-like region. ORF1, which is composed of 816 nucleotides, shows a high degree of similarity to dihydropteroate synthetase encoded by the sulII gene from plasmids in several enteropathogenic bacteria, which functions as the sulfonamide resistance determinant. In fact, Salmonella and Escherichia coli strains carrying pRF-1 were found to show strong resistance to sulfathiazole, suggesting that orf1 is a functional gene. Four of seven ORFs were found to encode putative proteins of unknown function.

Iron regulated genes of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in response to norepinephrine and the requirement of fepDGC for norepinephrine-enhanced growth

Catecholamines may stimulate enteric bacteria including the foodborne pathogen Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (Salmonella Typhimurium) by two mechanisms in vivo: as a quorum sensing signal and a supplier of iron. To identify genes of Salmonella Typhimurium that respond to norepinephrine, transposon mutagenesis and DNA microarray analysis were performed. Insertional mutations in the following genes decreased norepinephrine-enhanced growth: degS, entE, entF, fes, gpmA, hfq, STM3846. DNA microarray and real-time RT-PCR analyses revealed a decrease in the expression of several genes involved in iron acquisition and utilization during norepinephrine exposure, signifying the iron-limiting conditions of serum-SAPI minimal medium and the siderophore-like activity of norepinephrine. Unlike the wild-type parent strain, growth of neither a fepA iroN cirA mutant nor a fepC mutant, harboring deletional mutations in the outer and inner membrane transporters of enterochelin, respectively, was enhanced by norepinephrine. However, growth of the fepC and the fepA iroN cirA mutants could be rescued by an alternative siderophore, ferrioxamine E, further validating the role of norepinephrine in supplying the organism with iron via the catecholate-specific iron transport system. Contrary to previous reports using small animal models, the fepA iroN cirA mutant of Salmonella Typhimurium colonized the swine gastrointestinal tract, as did the fepC mutant.

We have cloned fourNeurospora crassagenes by complementation analysis. Cloned genes include thearginine-1(arg-1),methionine-6(met-6),unknown-7(un-7), andribosome production-1(rip-1) loci. Chromosome walks were initiated in ordered cosmid libraries from the cloned loci. A total of about 700 kb of theNeurosporagenome is covered in these walks.     

Modelling of the regulation of the hilA promoter of type three secretion system of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium

One of the most common modes of secretion of toxins in gram-negative bacteria is via the type three secretion system (TTSS), which enables the toxins to be specifically exported into the host cell. The hilA gene product is a key regulator of the expression of the TTSS located on the pathogenicity island (SPI-1) of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. It has been proposed earlier that the regulation of HilA expression is via a complex feedforward loop involving the transactivators HilD, HilC and RtsA. In this paper, we have constructed a mathematical model of regulation of hilA-promoter by all the three activators using two feedforward loops. We have modified the model to include additional complexities in regulation such as the proposed positive feedback and cross regulations of the three transactivators. Results of the various models indicate that the basic model involving two Type I coherent feedforward loops with an OR gate is sufficient to explain the published experimental observations. We also discuss two scenarios where the regulation can occur via monomers or heterodimers of the transactivators and propose experiments that can be performed to distinguish the two modes of regulator function.

Fluorescent labeling of (Na + K)-ATPase by 5-iodoacetamidofluorescein

5-Iodoacetamidofluorescein (5-IAF) covalently labels dog kidney (Na⁺ + K⁺)-ATPase with approximately 2 moles incorporated per mole of enzyme. ATPase and K⁺-phosphatase activities are fully retained after reaction, and the kinetic parameters for Na⁺, K⁺, Mg²⁺, ATP and p-nitrophenyl phosphate are likewise not significantly affected. The fluorescence of the bound 5-IAF is increased by ATP, Na⁺, and Mg²⁺, and decreased by K⁺. These fluorescence changes likely reflect ligand-induced stabilization of the E₁ or E₂ states of the enzyme.
