Abstract
The design of novel antibiotics relies on a profound understanding of their mechanism of action. While it has been shown that cellular effects of antibiotics cluster according to their molecular targets, we investigated whether compounds binding to different sites of the same target can be differentiated by their transcriptome or metabolome signatures. The effects of three fluoroquinolones, two aminocoumarins, and two cystobactamids, all inhibiting bacterial gyrase, on Pseudomonas aeruginosa at subinhibitory concentrations could be distinguished clearly by RNA sequencing as well as metabolomics. We observed a strong (2.8- to 212-fold) induction of autolysis-triggering pyocins in all gyrase inhibitors, which correlated with extracellular DNA (eDNA) release. Gyrase B-binding aminocoumarins induced the most pronounced changes, including a strong downregulation of phenazine and rhamnolipid virulence factors. Cystobactamids led to a downregulation of a glucose catabolism pathway. The study implies that clustering cellular mechanisms of action according to the primary target needs to take class-dependent variances into account. IMPORTANCE Novel antibiotics are urgently needed to tackle the growing worldwide problem of antimicrobial resistance. Bacterial pathogens possess few privileged targets for a successful therapy: the majority of existing antibiotics as well as current candidates in development target the complex bacterial machinery for cell wall synthesis, protein synthesis, or DNA replication. An important mechanistic question addressed by this study is whether inhibiting such a complex target at different sites with different compounds has similar or differentiated cellular consequences. Using transcriptomics and metabolomics, we demonstrate that three different classes of gyrase inhibitors can be distinguished by their molecular signatures in P. aeruginosa. We describe the cellular effects of a promising, recently identified gyrase inhibitor class, the cystobactamids, in comparison to those of the established gyrase A-binding fluoroquinolones and the gyrase B-binding aminocoumarins. The study results have implications for mode-of-action discovery approaches based on target-specific reference compounds, as they highlight the intraclass variability of cellular compound effects.

PprA Protein Is Involved in Chromosome Segregation via Its Physical and Functional Interaction with DNA Gyrase in Irradiated Deinococcus radiodurans Bacteria. mSphere 2016; 1:mSphere00036-15. [PMID: 27303692 PMCID: PMC4863600 DOI: 10.1128/msphere.00036-15] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2015] [Accepted: 12/09/2015] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
D. radiodurans is one of the most radiation-resistant organisms known. This bacterium is able to cope with high levels of DNA lesions generated by exposure to extreme doses of ionizing radiation and to reconstruct a functional genome from hundreds of radiation-induced chromosomal fragments. Here, we identified partners of PprA, a radiation-induced Deinococcus-specific protein, previously shown to be required for radioresistance. Our study leads to three main findings: (i) PprA interacts with DNA gyrase after irradiation, (ii) treatment of cells with novobiocin results in defects in chromosome segregation that are aggravated by the absence of PprA, and (iii) PprA stimulates the decatenation activity of DNA gyrase. Our results extend the knowledge of how D. radiodurans cells survive exposure to extreme doses of gamma irradiation and point out the link between DNA repair, chromosome segregation, and DNA gyrase activities in the radioresistant D. radiodurans bacterium. PprA, a radiation-induced Deinococcus-specific protein, was previously shown to be required for cell survival and accurate chromosome segregation after exposure to ionizing radiation. Here, we used an in vivo approach to determine, by shotgun proteomics, putative PprA partners coimmunoprecipitating with PprA when cells were exposed to gamma rays. Among them, we found the two subunits of DNA gyrase and, thus, chose to focus our work on characterizing the activities of the deinococcal DNA gyrase in the presence or absence of PprA. Loss of PprA rendered cells hypersensitive to novobiocin, an inhibitor of the B subunit of DNA gyrase. We showed that treatment of bacteria with novobiocin resulted in induction of the radiation desiccation response (RDR) regulon and in defects in chromosome segregation that were aggravated by the absence of PprA. In vitro, the deinococcal DNA gyrase, like other bacterial DNA gyrases, possesses DNA negative supercoiling and decatenation activities. These two activities are inhibited in vitro by novobiocin and nalidixic acid, whereas PprA specifically stimulates the decatenation activity of DNA gyrase. Together, these results suggest that PprA plays a major role in chromosome decatenation via its interaction with the deinococcal DNA gyrase when D. radiodurans cells are recovering from exposure to ionizing radiation.

Abstract
In Helicobacter pylori, a host-adapted bacterium with a small genome and few dedicated transcriptional regulators, promoter structure, and gene organization suggested a role for DNA topology in the transcriptional regulation of flagellar genes. H. pylori DNA supercoiling, monitored by a reporter plasmid, was relaxed by novobiocin, an inhibitor of DNA gyrase. A decrease in negative supercoiling coincided with lowered transcription of the late flagellin gene flaA. Targeted mutagenesis that either increased or decreased promoter spacer length in the flaA sigma(28) promoter lowered flaA transcript levels, expression of FlaA protein, and flagella formation. It also changed the promoter response to decreased superhelicity. Supercoiling of reporter plasmid DNA in H. pylori varied with growth phase in liquid culture. H. pylori sigma(28) promoters of various spacer length, as well as other supercoiling-sensitive genes, were differentially transcribed during the growth phases, consistent with supercoiling being associated with growth phase regulation. Genome-wide transcript analysis of wild-type H. pylori under conditions of reduced supercoiling identified flagellar, housekeeping, and virulence genes, the expression of which correlated with supercoiling change and/or growth phase. These data indicate that global supercoiling changes may help coordinate temporal (growth phase-related) regulation of flagellar biosynthesis and other cellular functions in Helicobacter.

Abstract
The yebG gene of Escherichia coli is a novel SOS regulon gene, but details of its regulation mechanism and biological function are not yet known. To characterize the regulation of yebG gene as a SOS gene, we identified the genetic factors affecting the SOS induction of yebG gene using yebG-lacZ operon fusion plasmid. We found that the SOS induction of yebG occurs as the cells enter into the stationary growth phase, but its induction is not observed in LB medium in the presence of 1% glucose. A stationary phase SOS induction of the yebG gene does not require the global regulator of stationary phase-specific genes, rpoS, or gyrA functions, but requires cya encoding the adenylate cyclase and hns encoding the histone-like protein H-NS functions. Our results demonstrated that the induction of a DNA damage-inducible yebG gene of E. coli is dependent on cyclic AMP and H-NS.

Abstract
Photorhabdus sp. strain K122 was found to produce higher levels of the protein CAP87K when cultured at 9 degrees C than when cultured at 28 degrees C. NH2-terminal sequencing of this protein revealed homology with the NH2 terminus of Escherichia coli polynucleotide phosphorylase. A 4.5-kb DNA fragment from strain K122 was cloned and sequenced and found to have 75% identity to the E. coli rpsO-pnp operon coding for ribosomal protein S15 and polynucleotide phosphorylase, respectively. Predicted proteins encoded by this sequence were found to have 86% identity with ribosomal protein S15 and polynucleotide phosphorylase from E. coli, and the genes were called rpsO and pnp, respectively. Quantitation of rpsO and pnp mRNA transcripts from K122 revealed that there was a 2.4-fold increase in the level of pnp mRNA and a 1.9-fold decrease in the level of rpsO mRNA at 9 degrees C relative to 28 degrees C. Primer extension analysis revealed the positions of possible promoters controlling the expression of rpsO and pnp in K122, suggesting that the genes are expressed independently. The increase in the level of pnp mRNA at 9 degrees C was not due to any relative increase in its stability compared with that of the rpsO transcript. However, there was evidence to suggest that it may be a result of a cold-inducible promoter, P2, in the intergenic region between rpsO and pnp. Several features of P2 support the suggestion that it may be cold inducible.

Abstract
A variety of reports describe shifts in the environment which cause a corresponding change in the measured linking number of plasmid DNA isolated from bacterial cells. This change in linking number is often attributed to a change in superhelical density. This, coupled with the observation that transcription is often dependent upon the superhelical density of the DNA template seen in vitro, has led to the suggestion that superhelical density may control expression of certain genes. However, since many environmental changes could, in principle, influence DNA twist itself, then the measured differences in linking number, delta Lk, may simply be a consequence of variation in twist according to the relationship delta Lk = delta Tw + delta Wr, where delta Tw and delta Wr are changes in twist and writhe, respectively. In fact, we show that when an environmental change causes a change in the helical pitch of the DNA, and if the superhelical density of DNA is regulated to remain constant according to the homeostatic model of Menzel and Gellert, then delta Lk approximately delta Tw. We have found that there are a number of published reports describing variation in promoter activity as a function of linking number that can be explained by considering twist. We suggest that there are classes of sigma 70 promoters whose ability to be recognized by RNA polymerase is exquisitely sensitive to the relative orientation of the -35 and -10 regions, and environmental conditions can control this relative orientation by changing DNA twist.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
Inhibitors of DNA gyrase in Escherichia coli exerted differential effects on the genetic transformation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. When competent cells of the gonococcus were exposed to novobiocin before the uptake of transforming antibiotic resistance DNA, there was a 50 to 60% reduction in the number of transformants compared with the number of control untreated cells. Norfloxacin, a more potent inhibitor of DNA gyrase and an analog of nalidixic acid, nearly abolished the production of transformants by recipient cells. On the contrary, exposure of competent cells to nalidixic acid had no effect on transformant yield. The target of these inhibitors appears to be at the level of recombination. Possible mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract
Whereas treatment with many different drugs led to induction of the SOS response in Bacillus subtilis, only inhibitors of DNA gyrase subunit B and, unexpectedly, polyether antibiotics (membrane ionophores) led to relaxation of supercoiled plasmid DNA. However, treatment with DNA gyrase subunit B inhibitors but not with polyethers led to SOS induction. Thus, the presence of underwound supercoiled DNA was not sufficient to induce the SOS response. Possible mechanisms by which polyethers induce relaxation of supercoiled DNA in vivo are discussed.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the genes encoding the two subunits of Escherichia coli DNA gyrase are regulated in a manner which is dependent on DNA conformation. When the DNA encoding the gyrA and gyrB genes is relaxed, both genes are expressed at a high level; in negatively supercoiled DNA they are expressed at a low level. In this paper we describe fusions of both the gyrA and gyrB 5' sequences to the E. coli galactokinase gene. In such fusions we found that galactokinase can be induced by treating the cells with coumermycin A1, an inhibitor of DNA gyrase. Our results suggest that the regulation occurs at the transcriptional level and that only a small region of DNA is necessary for coumermycin-induced gene expression.

Abstract
Induction of the SOS genes is required for efficient repair of damaged DNA in Escherichia coli. SOS induction by nalidixic acid or oxolinic acid, two inhibitors of DNA gyrase, requires the RecBC enzyme of E. coli. We report here that the nuclease activity of RecBC enzyme is not needed for SOS induction by these agents. We suggest that the unwinding activity of RecBC enzyme produces single-stranded DNA which activates the RecA protein to stimulate LexA repressor cleavage and SOS induction.

Abstract
We have examined the level of expression of the SOS regulon in cells lacking DNA adenine methylase activity (dam-). Mud (Ap, lac) fusions to several SOS operons (recA, lexA, uvrA, uvrB, uvrD, sulA, dinD and dinF) were found to express higher levels of beta-galactosidase in dam- strains than in isogenic dam+ strains. The attempted construction of dam- strains that were also mutant in one of several SOS genes indicated that the viability of methylase-deficient strains correlates with the inactivation of the SOS repressor (LexA protein). Consistent with this, the wild-type functions of two LexA-repressed genes (recA and ruv) appear to be required for dam- strain viability.

Abstract
A recA-lacZ protein fusion was constructed in vivo by using bacteriophage Mu dII301(Ap lac). The fusion contained the promoter and first 47 codons of the recA mutant, as determined by DNA sequence analysis. The fusion was cloned and used to construct a recA-lacZ operon fusion at the same site within the recA gene. These fusions were introduced into the Escherichia coli chromosome at the lambda attachment site either as complete or cryptic lambda prophages. Synthesis of beta-galactosidase from these fusions was inducible by UV radiation. As the UV dose was increased, induction became slower and persisted for a longer period of time. At low doses of UV radiation, more beta-galactosidase was produced in a uvrA mutant than in a wild-type strain; however, at high doses, no induced synthesis of beta-galactosidase occurred in a uvrA mutant. recA+ strains carrying either the protein or operon fusion on a multicopy plasmid showed reduced survival after UV irradiation. This UV sensitivity was not exhibited by strains containing a single copy of either fusion, however; hence, the fusions provide a reliable measure of recA expression.

Abstract
We analyzed the nucleotide sequence of a 1.325-kilobase region of wild-type Escherichia coli containing a functional recF gene and six Tn3 mutations that inactivate recF. The analysis shows a potentially translatable reading frame of 1071 nucleotides, which is interrupted by all six insertions. A protein of 40.5 kilodaltons would result from translation of the open reading frame, and a radioactive band of protein of an apparent molecular weight of approximately 40 kilodaltons was seen by the maxicell method using a recF+ plasmid. Putative truncated peptides were seen when two recF::Tn3 mutant plasmids were used. Differential expression of dnaN and recF from a common promoter was noted. recF332::Tn3 was transferred to the chromosome where, in hemizygous condition, it produced UV sensitivity indistinguishable from that produced by two presumed recF point mutations.

Abstract
The recA gene product plays a critical role in the Escherichia coli SOS system. To facilitate studies of the regulation of the recA operon, we constructed a gene fusion between the recA operon and the Salmonella trp operon. This gene fusion closely mimics the behavior of the authentic recA operon in vivo. Using the gene fusion, we looked at the effect of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) on recA expression. In contrast to the expectations from previous work, we found that low (0.5 microgram/ml) adaptive doses of MNNG induce the recA-trp gene fusion as efficiently as other SOS inducers without inducing either lambda or phi 80 prophages. These results are a clear example of the ability of some agents to induce a subset of the SOS-dependent operons. They force a reevaluation of many of the arguments that have led to the conclusion that the SOS and adaptive responses are completely independent.
