Comparison of global transcription responses allows identification of Vibrio cholerae genes differentially expressed following infection.

چکیده
Comparison of global transcription profiles of Vibrio cholerae grown in vitro and in vivo revealed that 20% of the genome was repressed and about 5% was induced under in vivo conditions. Hybridization with the cloned genes revealed that the virulence genes ctx, toxR, toxT and tcpA were induced under in vivo conditions. Dissection of two in vivo induced cosmids identified another set of three genes homologous to che Y1 involved in motility and chemotaxis, pnuC encoding the major component of the nicotinamide mononucleotide transport system and icmF belonging to a cassette involved in multiplication inside host cells. These results demonstrate that the global transcription profile approach might be a powerful method for identification of differentially expressed transcripts under in vivo conditions.

Differences in gene expression between the classical and El Tor biotypes of Vibrio cholerae O1.
Differences in whole-genome expression patterns between the classical and El Tor biotypes of Vibrio cholerae O1 were determined under conditions that induce virulence gene expression in the classical biotype. A total of 524 genes (13.5% of the genome) were found to be differentially expressed in the two biotypes. The expression of genes encoding proteins required for biofilm formation, chemotax...
متن کاملTranscriptional responses of intestinal epithelial cells to infection with Vibrio cholerae.
Vibrio cholerae is a noninvasive enteric bacterium that causes the severe diarrheal disease cholera. Candidate cholera vaccines have been engineered by deleting genes encoding known virulence factors in V. cholerae; however, many of these attenuated strains were still reactogenic in human volunteers. In this study, DNA arrays were utilized to monitor the transcriptional responses of human intes...
متن کاملThe Application of a Non-Radioactive DD-AFLP Method for Profiling of Aeluropus lagopoides Differentially Expressed Transcripts under Salinity or Drought Conditions
Aeluropus lagopoides is a salt and drought tolerant grass from Poaceae family, distributed widely in arid regions. There is almost no information about the genetics or genome of this close relative of wheat that stands harsh conditions of deserts. Differential Display Amplified fragment length polymorphism (DD-AFLP) led to the improvement of a non-radioactive method for which many parameters we...
متن کاملSimultaneous Detection of Integrase and Antibiotic Resistance Genes within SXT Constin in Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor Strains Isolated from Iran Using Multiplex-PCR
Objective(s) Amongst the various antibiotic resistant elements in Vibrio. cholerae, SXT constin (SXT-C) is important. We were going to design a quick method for determination of antibiotic resistance gene pattern in SXT-C. Materials and Methods Ninety four V. cholerae O1El Tor isolates were used in this study. Antibiotic susceptibility testing, multiplex PCR amplification of SXT-C containing...
متن کاملSecond-generation recombination-based in vivo expression technology for large-scale screening for Vibrio cholerae genes induced during infection of the mouse small intestine.
We have constructed an improved recombination-based in vivo expression technology (RIVET) and used it as a screening method to identify Vibrio cholerae genes that are transcriptionally induced during infection of infant mice. The improvements include the introduction of modified substrate cassettes for resolvase that can be positively and negatively selected for, allowing selection of resolved ...
