Повний текст джерелаA long list of constrains that affect gene expression have been discovered thanks to the thousands of sequenced genomes and comparative genomics. These contrains can be at the nucleotidic level, but also at the 3D scale. Studies showed that the spatial organization of bacterial genomes goes from the molecular level to the cellular level. At the molecular level, NAPs (Nuceloid Associated Proteins) are modeling the chromosome by inducing 10kb loops called microdomains, that present different supercoiling levels. At the cellular scale, it has been observed 4 different structured regions + 2 non-structured regions on E.coli's chromosome. These regions of approximatively 1Mbp are called macrodomains. The first goal of this project is to study the effects of positioning and constrains on gene expression in E.coli. With the chromosome being so large and precisely organized in time and space by several interacting elements simultaneously, it is often difficult for researchers to isolate one specific feature and to accurately correlate this to gene regulation. What becomes obvious when one begins to wade through the literature is that the field would greatly benefit from simplified model chromosomes

Повний текст джерелаThe organization of the E. Coli chromosome has been defined genetically as consisting of four insulated macrodomains and two less constrained regions. During my Ph. D. Thesis, we have analyzed the positioning, the segregation pattern and the motility of fluorescent markers in the macrodomains or the Non Structured regions. We have demonstrated that the organization into macrodomains influences the segregation of sister chromatids and the mobility of chromosomal DNA in a radically different way than the NS regions. Moreover we have demonstrated that the organization of the Terminus region into a macrodomain relies on the presence of a 13 bp motif called matS repeated 23 times in the 800 kb-long domain. MatS sites are the main targets in the E. Coli chromosome of a newly identified protein designated MatP. MatP accumulates in the cell as a discrete focus that colocalizes with the Ter macrodomain. The effects of MatP inactivation reveal its role as main organizer of the Ter macrodomain : in the absence of MatP, DNA is less compacted, the mobility of markers is increased, and segregation of Ter macrodomain occurs early in the cell cycle. Our results indicate that a specific organizational system is required in the Terminus region for bacterial chromosome management during the cell cycle

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is the most common cause of diarrhea in travellers and young children in developing countries. We previously characterized three vaccine candidates (MipA, Skp, and ETEC_2479) which effectively protected mice in an intranasal ETEC challenge model after immunization. However, these proteins are conserved not only in multiple ETEC isolates, but also in commensal bacteria. In this study, we examined the potential of these antigens to affect the host intestinal microbiota and subsequently found no significant impact on healthy of host after vaccination. In addition, we also optimized the types of adjuvants and forms of antigens and evaluated the efficacy in a mouse intranasal challenge model. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is an emerging zoonotic pathogen that cause global public health threads. EHEC possesses the potential to cause gastroenteritis, hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), which may lead to renal failure. Type III secretion system (T3SS) is a hallmark of EHEC, characterized by the needle-like structure and a variety of effectors injected into host cells. NleB, one of T3SS effectors, is a glycosyltransferase with the ability to catalyze the transfer of N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (N-GlcNAc) to host proteins to suppress the activation of NF-kB signaling pathway. In this study, we employed luminescence-based glycosyltransferase assay and high-throughput screening using a chemical library of various compounds. A total of 128 chemicals was selected with significant inhibition on NleB glycosyltransferase activity for further pharmaceutical study as novel therapy against EHEC infection.

Повний текст джерелаEscherichia coli is also of causing a variety of intestinal or extraintestinal infections in humans and animals. In poultry flocks APEC (Avian pathogenic E. Coli) are involved in a systemic infection initiated in the respiratory tract that can be lethal for the animals. Several bacterial factors have been associated with their virulence, however the mechanisms underlying pathogenicity are not fully understood yet. Identification of new factors involved in the pathogenesis of APEC should lead to a better understanding of the infectious process. In bacteria, virulence factors are often located in mobile genetic elements (transposons or pathogenicity islands (PAIs)). PAIs are often associated with tRNA loci. We identified a new PAI in the APEC strain BEN2908, that we named AGI-3 for "APEC genomic island 3". AGI-3 is located at the 3'-end of the selC tRNA and possesses several characteristics of PAIs (flanked by direct repeats, presence of genes coding for putative mobile elements and large size 49 600 pb). AGI-3 shows a mosaic structure. It is composed of 49 ORFs three of them, aec35 to aec37, seem to be implicated in sugar metabolism. Comparing the abilities of the wild type strain BEN2908 and of the isogenic mutant, deleted for the three genes, to assimilate carbohydrates and to induce colibacillosis in a chicken experimental model, we demonstrated the implication of the cluster in the uptake of seven carbohydrates and in pathogenesis at the early steps of the infection. The presence of a putative active integrase gene as well as att sites suggested that AGI-3 could have been acquired by horizontal gene transfer. We demonstrated that AGI-3 is able to excise from the chromosome and to persist in the bacterial cytoplasm as a circular form and be transferred to an E. Coli K-12 strain by conjugation. These data show that AGI-3 could be a potential vector for dissemination of virulence genes between bacterial strains

Повний текст джерелаEnterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are a major public health concern. Indeed, these pathogens are responsible for thousands of food-borne illness cases worldwide every year and can lead to serious complications, including kidney damages in young children and brain damages in the elderly. Currently, the main issue is the limited number of available therapeutic treatments since antibiotic therapy can promote the development of infection-related complications. Therefore, it appears essential and topical to identify bacterial factors associated with EHEC virulence and to understand the interactions occurring between the pathogen and the host, in order to develop new anti-infective strategies. The first objective of this thesis was to identify new bacterial factors potentially involved in the infectious process. Application of the RIVET technology to the reference strain O157:H7 EDL933 revealed 31 genes specifically induced during mouse infection. Characterization of these genes showed that some of them encode niche factors potentially involved in the adaptation of EHEC to the intestinal environment, therefore contributing to virulence. The second aim of this thesis was to characterize in vivo the response of EHEC to nitric oxide (NO), a mediator of the host’s immune response, and thus assess the protective role of NO against EHEC infection in a mouse model. By using a NO-sensing reporter EHEC strain, we demonstrated that NO is produced by the host at the early stages of infection and this NO limits adhesion of the pathogen to the colonic mucosa. On the other hand, we also showed that NO is detrimental to the host since it promotes the production of Shigatoxins (Stx), which is the major EHEC virulence factor, and leads to the development of renal dysfunction. Finally, we showed that the NO reductase NorVW is important for the virulence of some, but not all, EHEC strains. Inactivation of the norVW operon in strain O157:H7 620 reduces the ability of the pathogen to efficiently colonize the digestive tract and to produce Stx. However, this observation is strain-specific and this suggests that EHEC response to nitrosative stress during infection is complex and probably multifactorial. This work contributes to a better understanding of the EHEC infectious process, an essential step for the development of future anti-infective strategies

Повний текст джерелаMolybdenum (Mo) is a rare transition metal that is indispensable to most living organisms. In particular, it makes part of the active site of metalloenzymes involved in the biogeochemical cycles of carbon, nitrogen and sulphur. In this context, prokaryotic molybdoenzymes (MoEs) with the bisPGD cofactor at their active site essentially catalyze oxidoreduction reactions with 2 e-/2 H+ towards a wide range of substrates. Given that some MoEs can activate substrates that are well-known pollutants, understanding the mechanism of these enzymes accounts for a major prerequisite for future enzymatic engineering strategies aimed at optimizing enzyme reactivity towards bioremediation processes. To identify the molecular determinants of the reactivity of MoEs, we have explored the importance of the Mo proteic ligand aspartate in the respiratory Nitrate Reductase from E. coli. We have combined biochemistry and EPR spectroscopy to analyze the impact of the Mo-ligand substitution on both the enzymatic and the structural properties of the molybdenum cofactor. Our results show that the nature of the proteic ligand plays a critical role in the reactivity of the active site. A second part of my thesis work consisted in establishing the link between spectroscopic data on the MoV centre and its atomic structure. To get a high level of resolution and to identify which kind of structural modification is responsible for the spectroscopic differences between every Mo(V) signature, pulsed EPR spectroscop is most promising. Our results constitute a pre-requisite for structural studies of every species of the MoV center of the NRA

Повний текст джерелаBiofilms are heterogeneous microbial populations associated to surfaces and encased in an extracellular matrix. They are very common in all type of ecological niches and they are often found in medical and industrial environments where they are frequently harmful. The presence of biofilms is indeed problematic because of their high scattering capacities and resistances to anti-bacterial agents. During biofilm formation, bacteria synthesize various adhesive surface structures subjected to a complex network of regulations. Indeed, biofilm formation leads to a modification of the gene expression profile and to specific physiological answers. The objectives of my phD work is the exploration of factors involved in biofilm formation in E. Coli and Salmonella. I first developed a new genetical tool which allows thé modulation of target genes expression, to identify news adhesins in E. Coli and S. Enteritica. I also identified two genes, ychA and ycbB, located on the F conjugative plasmid, which encode autotransporters adhesins and I studied their role in E. Coli biofilm formation. Finally, I investigated the role of the rhs genes in biofilm formation. These genes of unknown function are considered as cryptic in laboratory conditions. I showed that they are specifically expressed in biofilm suggesting that they play a role in its formation. All these results show the wide variety of adhesion factors that are involved in biofilm formation

Повний текст джерелаWater is an important daily requirement and in a clean, pure form, it promotes health and well-being. In addition to South Africa being one of the driest countries in the world, water availability is also being compromised by massive pollution of remaining water sources. The Berg- and Plankenburg Rivers are two of the surface water sources in the Western Cape, South Africa, which are highly polluted by sewage, industrial and agricultural run-off. The current investigation was aimed at comparing diagnostic tools, which are employed by municipalities and food industries, and molecular based techniques to routinely monitor water for indicator organisms in time- and cost-effective manner. These rivers were sampled twice a month (July 2010 to January 2011) at the sites closest to the informal settlements of Kayamandi in Stellenbosch (Plankenburg River) and Mbekweni in Paarl (Berg River). The contamination levels of the two river systems were evaluated by the enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliforms using the Colilert 18® system, Membrane Filtration (MF) and Multiple Tube Fermentation (MTF) techniques. The highest faecal coliform count of 9.2 × 106 microorganisms/100 ml was obtained in weeks 21 and 28 from the Plankenburg River system by the MTF technique, while the lowest count of 1.1 × 103 microorganisms/100 ml was obtained in week one for both river systems by the MTF technique. The highest E. coli count of 1.7 × 106 microorganisms/100 ml was obtained from the Berg River system (week 9) using the MTF technique, while the lowest count of 3.6 × 102 microorganisms/100 ml was obtained by the MF technique from the Plankenburg River system. The coliform and E. coli counts obtained by the enumeration techniques thus significantly (p > 0.05) exceeded the guidelines of 2000 microorganisms/100 ml stipulated by the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry (DWAF, 1996) for water used in recreational purposes. Overall the results obtained in this study showed that the water in the Berg- and Plankenburg River systems is highly polluted, especially where these water sources are used for irrigational and recreational purposes. For the coliform and E. coli counts obtained using the three enumeration techniques, it was noted that the MTF technique was more sensitive and obtained higher counts for most of the sampling weeks. However, the media (Membrane lactose glucuronide agar) used in the MF technique also effectively recovered environmentally stressed microbial cells and it was also better for the routine selection and growth of coliforms and E. coli. While E. coli and total coliforms were detected utilising the Colilert 18® system, accurate enumeration values for these two indicator groups was not obtained for the entire sampling period for both river systems. It has previously been shown that dilutions (up to 10-3) of highly polluted waters increase the accuracy of the Colilert 18® system to enumerate colifoms and E. coli in marine waters. As the results obtained utilising the Colilert 18® system were also not comparable to the MF and MTF techniques it is recommended that highly polluted water samples be diluted to increase the accuracy of this system as a routine enumeration technique. Water samples were directly inoculated onto MacConkey, Vile Red Bile (VRB) agar and the Chromocult Coliform agar (CCA) and single colonies were inoculated onto nutrient agar. Chromocult coliform agar proved to be more sensitive than MacConkey and VRB agar for the culturing of E. coli and coliforms. Preliminary identification of these colonies was done using the RapID ONE and API 20 E systems. The most isolated Enterobacteriaceae species by both systems, included Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Escherichia coli and Enterobacter cloacae in both river systems. The API 20 E system was more sensitive in the preliminary identification of the various isolates, as greater species diversity was obtained in comparison to the RapID ONE system. The Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was firstly optimised using positive Enterobacteriaceae species. The optimised method was then applied to the analysis of river water samples, which were centrifuged to harvest the bacterial cells, with DNA extracted using the boiling method. The extracted DNA was amplified using conventional PCR with the aid of species specific primers. The Enterobacteriaceae species that were detected throughout the study period in both river systems include Serratia marcescens, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Bacillus cereus. Conventional PCR was the most reliable and sensitive technique to detect Enterobacteriaceae to species level in a short period of time when compared to RapID ONE and the API 20 E systems. Multiplex PCR was optimised using the positive pathogenic E. coli strains namely, Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC), Enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) and Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC). It was then employed in river water sample analysis and enabled the detection of EAEC, EHEC, and EIEC strains in Berg River system, with only the EAEC detected in the Plankenburg River system. Real-time PCR was used to optimise the multiplex PCR in the amplification of E. coli strains and successfully reduced the time to obtain final results when using control organisms. Real-time PCR was found to be more sensitive and time-effective in the identification of E. coli strains, and also more pronounced DNA bands were observed in real-time PCR products compared to conventional-multiplex PCR amplicons. To sustain the services provided by the Berg- and Plankenburg Rivers in the Western Cape (South Africa), these water sources should frequently be monitored, results assessed and reported according to the practices acknowledged by responsible bodies. It is therefore recommended that the enumeration techniques be used in conjunction with the very sensitive PCR technique for the accurate detection of coliforms and E. coli in river water samples.

Повний текст джерелаBacterial typing is crucial to tackle the spread of bacterial pathogens but current methods are time-consuming and costly. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ability of MALDI-TOF MS to type the 3 main bacterial species re.sponsible for nosocomial infections - Escherichia coti, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Analysis of MALDI-TOF mass spectra allow the identification (i) of E. coti isolates belonging to phylogroup B2, that fosters the most virulent extra-intestinal strains, and (ii) of E. coli STl 31, a clone involved in the dissemination of extended-spectrum β-lactamases. MALDI-TOF MS also recognizes S. aureus isolates belonging to CC398, a pathogen responsible for invasive infections in fragile patients and associated with a higher 30-day mortality. Furthermore the MALDI-TOF MS based typing method identifies the major high risk epidemic clones of P. aeruginosa STl 11, STl 75, ST235, ST253, and ST395. We confirmed phylogroup B2 specific peaks also described by other authors. However the identification of E. coli STl 31 or epidemic clones of S. aureus is based on biomarkers that differs between studies. Different parameters can influence the MALDI-TOF MS typing results and must therefore be standardized. MALDI-TOF-based typing methods allow the detection of epidemic pathogens. Keeping in mind that the choice of a method for routine bacterial typing should be made according to the objectives but also the performance of the different systems available, the MALDI-TOF MS technique could become a first-line typing method
