228SSV009Mathematical modell<strong>in</strong>g of cooperation and cheat<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>survival strategies of microorganismsS. SchusterUniversity of Jena, Dept. of Bio<strong>in</strong>formatics, Jena, GermanyMicroorganisms are often eng<strong>in</strong>eered to produce a extracellular enzymes,for example, for produc<strong>in</strong>g renewable fuels and <strong>in</strong> biodegradation ofxenobiotics. Productivity is often reduced by "cheater" mutants, which aredeficient <strong>in</strong> exoenzyme production and benefitt<strong>in</strong>g from the productprovided by the "cooperat<strong>in</strong>g" cells. The <strong>in</strong>terplay between cooperationand cheat<strong>in</strong>g can be described theoretically by game theory [1,2]. Wepresent a game-theoretical model to analyze population structure andexoenzyme productivity [3]. Three dist<strong>in</strong>ct regimes are predicted: whenthe metabolic effort for exoenzyme production and secretion is low, allcells cooperate; at <strong>in</strong>termediate metabolic costs, cooperators and cheaterscoexist, while at high costs, all cells use the cheat<strong>in</strong>g strategy [2-4]. Theseregimes correspond to the harmony game, snowdrift game, and Prisoner’sDilemma, respectively. Thus, microbial stra<strong>in</strong>s eng<strong>in</strong>eered for exoenzymeproduction will not normally be outcompeted by cheater mutants.Moreover, our model provides an estimate of the cell density maximiz<strong>in</strong>gexoenzyme production [3].Another example of different survival strategies that can be modelled bygame theory concerns the polymorphic fungus Candida albicans. Twostrategies are available for each pathogenic yeast cell once be<strong>in</strong>gphagocytosed: avoid<strong>in</strong>g lysis transiently (called silenc<strong>in</strong>g here) or form<strong>in</strong>ghyphae and escap<strong>in</strong>g (called pierc<strong>in</strong>g). Two different outcomes can bederived from our model: when the difference of the costs of the twostrategies is low, all fungal cells <strong>in</strong>side a macrophage will play the pierc<strong>in</strong>gstrategy, while <strong>in</strong> the high-cost case, pierc<strong>in</strong>g and silenc<strong>in</strong>g cellscancoexist [5]. Further, the role of theSAPgene family encod<strong>in</strong>g secretedprote<strong>in</strong>ases and the Sap prote<strong>in</strong>s is <strong>in</strong>vestigated and is put <strong>in</strong> relation to thecosts of the strategies. Our results are <strong>in</strong> agreement with wet-lab resultspresented by other groups and the model parameters can be estimated fromexperimental data.1. T. Pfeiffer, S. Schuster.

Bertram*, K. Lewis, S. Lechner1 Universität Tüb<strong>in</strong>gen, Lehrbereich Mikrobielle Genetik, Tüb<strong>in</strong>gen, Germany2 Northeastern University, Antimicrobial Discovery Center, Boston, UnitedStatesBacterial cultures conta<strong>in</strong> a subpopulation of persister cells, non- or slowgrow<strong>in</strong>g reversible phenotypic variants of the wild type, tolerant tobactericidal antibiotics. To establish parameters for selection ofStaphylococcus aureus persisters, we monitored CFU counts ofplanktonically grown cells treated with a number of antibiotics over time.Stra<strong>in</strong>s SA113, HG001, HG002, and HG003 and small colony variants(SCVs) hemB and menD were challenged by the drugs added at differentlogs of MIC <strong>in</strong> exponential- or stationary growth phase. Generally,antibiotic tolerance was elevated <strong>in</strong> SCV stra<strong>in</strong>s compared to normallygrow<strong>in</strong>g cells and <strong>in</strong> stationary vs. exponential growth phase, but biphasickill<strong>in</strong>g k<strong>in</strong>etics, typical for persister cell selection, were observed <strong>in</strong> bothtypes of cultures. Treatment of stra<strong>in</strong>s HG001-HG003 <strong>in</strong> exponential phasewith 10-fold the MIC of tobramyc<strong>in</strong> resulted <strong>in</strong> the selection for bothpersisters and phenotypically stable SCVs. Trajectories of different kill<strong>in</strong>gcurves <strong>in</strong>dicated physiological heterogeneity of fitness with<strong>in</strong> a pool ofpersisters. 100-fold MIC of daptomyc<strong>in</strong> added to stationary phase SA113cells rapidly selected for very robust persisters. Although cells pretreatedwith an antibiotic exhibited elevated tolerance upon immediate reexposureto the same drug, the persister state was not vertically transmitted. A shiftof persisters to non-selective media evoked resuscitation and resumption ofgrowth after about three hours. Our data provide <strong>in</strong>sights <strong>in</strong>to persisterdynamics and reveal important roles of growth phase, stra<strong>in</strong> backgroundand genotype on persister levels of S. aureus.SSV011Sodium hypochlorite stimulates c-di-GMP synthesis andbiofilm formation <strong>in</strong> Pseudomonas aerug<strong>in</strong>osaN. Strempel*, M. Nusser, G. Brenner-Weiß, J. OverhageKarlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Institute of Functional Interfaces,Eggenste<strong>in</strong>-Leopoldshafen, GermanyThe Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aerug<strong>in</strong>osa plays animportant role as an opportunistic pathogen <strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>fectious diseases. Due tothe size and complexity of its genome as well as the sophisticated andcoord<strong>in</strong>ated regulation of gene expression mediated by a large number ofregulatory elements, P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa is able to adapt to variousenvironments. One important strategy <strong>in</strong> order to survive stressfulenvironmental conditions e.g. growth <strong>in</strong> the presence of antimicrobialagents such as antibiotics or biocides is the formation of resistant biofilms.To <strong>in</strong>vestigate the stress response of P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa PAO1 to sodiumhypochlorite, a dis<strong>in</strong>fectant which is commonly used <strong>in</strong> hospitals anddr<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g water treatment, we analyzed bacterial growth and biofilmformation <strong>in</strong> the presence of free chlor<strong>in</strong>e at different concentrations. Instatic biofilm assays, free chlor<strong>in</strong>e at sub<strong>in</strong>hibitory concentrations led to atwo-fold <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> attachment after two hours of <strong>in</strong>cubation compared tothe non-treated controls. The altered biofilm structure caused by sodiumhypochlorite treatment was further studied by fluorescence microscopy.Microarray analyses of chlor<strong>in</strong>e treated cells compared to untreatedcontrols revealed a significant upregulation <strong>in</strong> the expression of differentgenes which are known to be <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> attachment and biofilmformation, e.g. genes implicated <strong>in</strong> type IV-pili, flagella and alg<strong>in</strong>atebiosynthesis and function. Moreover we found an enhanced expression ofORF PA3177 which codes for a putative di-guanylate-cyclase. Diguanylate-cyclasescatalyze the synthesis of the second messenger c-di-GMP which is an important factor <strong>in</strong> biofilm formation and persistence <strong>in</strong>P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa. Subsequent LC-MS/MS analyses of bacterial lysatesshowed <strong>in</strong>deed a more than 5-fold <strong>in</strong>crease <strong>in</strong> c-di-GMP levels <strong>in</strong> responseto chlor<strong>in</strong>e treatment suggest<strong>in</strong>g a key role of this second messenger <strong>in</strong>chlor<strong>in</strong>e <strong>in</strong>duced biofilm formation. The function of PA3177 <strong>in</strong> the stressresponse of P. aerug<strong>in</strong>osa towards biocides was further <strong>in</strong>vestigated <strong>in</strong>more detail.SSV012SiaABCD, a signal<strong>in</strong>g pathway controll<strong>in</strong>g autoaggregation <strong>in</strong>Pseudomonas aerug<strong>in</strong>osaB. Colley 1 , S. Kjelleberg 1 , J. Klebensberger* 21 Centre for Mar<strong>in</strong>e Bio-Innovation/University of New South Wales, Schoolof Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences, Sydney, Australia2 Institute of Technical Biochemistry/Universitaet Stuttgart, Chemistry,Stuttgart, GermanyThe formation of biofilms and cell aggregates is environmentallyresponsive, often proceed<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> a sequential manner <strong>in</strong>volv<strong>in</strong>g complexregulatory mechanisms. The lack of knowledge regard<strong>in</strong>g environmentalstimuli and the apparent redundancy of pathways lead<strong>in</strong>g to biofilmformation provide challenges for study<strong>in</strong>g its genetic regulation.Previously, we showed that Pseudomonas aerug<strong>in</strong>osa forms freely float<strong>in</strong>gaggregates as an adaptive survival strategy <strong>in</strong> the presence of the toxicsurfactant sodium dodecyl-sulfate(SDS). While aggregate formation wastriggered by SDS exposure, it was not a prerequisite for survival undergrowth permissive conditions, mak<strong>in</strong>g this a suitable model system toanalyze the molecular mechanisms <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> aggregate formation. Wefound that expression of the adhesive fimbriae CupA and the extracellularpolysaccharide Psl is essential for autoaggregation <strong>in</strong> response to SDSstress and that this phenotype is regulated by the novel signal<strong>in</strong>g pathwaySiaABCD.We now report that the gene PA4623, located immediately upstream of thepreviously described two-partner secretion system encoded by cdrAB, isessential for SDS-<strong>in</strong>duced aggregate formation. This is <strong>in</strong> agreement withprevious microarray data show<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>creased expression of PA4623 andcdrAB, exclusively for aggregated cells dur<strong>in</strong>g SDS exposure. To further<strong>in</strong>vestigate the molecular mechanisms of SDS-<strong>in</strong>duced aggregation, weperformed a systematic mutational analysis of the siaABCD operon andcharacterized the correspond<strong>in</strong>g mutants. While a siaB deletion promotedautoaggregation, a non-functional siaC allele completely abolishedaggregation dur<strong>in</strong>g SDS exposure. Interest<strong>in</strong>gly, stra<strong>in</strong>s overexpress<strong>in</strong>gsiaB generally exhibited a non-aggregative phenotype, <strong>in</strong>dicat<strong>in</strong>g animportant regulatory function of the SiaB prote<strong>in</strong>. Further, secondarymutation analysis suggest that the SiaABCD pathway may operate via a bifunctionalmechanism, <strong>in</strong>volv<strong>in</strong>g c-di-GMP signal<strong>in</strong>g and the regulation ofmRNA stability.SSP001Microbial species show adaption for survival <strong>in</strong> adversemedium by <strong>in</strong>duc<strong>in</strong>g changes to glycosidic products before anddur<strong>in</strong>g the sporulation stage.S. LawrenceUniversity of Cambridge and Sci-Tech(South), Earth Sciences andBiochemistry Research, Cambridge, United K<strong>in</strong>gdomMost microbial species have a life cycle pathway that <strong>in</strong>volves cont<strong>in</strong>uousadaption of the nutrients <strong>in</strong> the surround<strong>in</strong>g media.This depends on theimmediate needs of the organism at any particular <strong>in</strong>stant <strong>in</strong> the life cycleprocess.Many microbial species use the method of chang<strong>in</strong>g glycosidicand polysaccharidic related products both <strong>in</strong>side the organism and <strong>in</strong> thesurround<strong>in</strong>g milieu to their needs at any particular po<strong>in</strong>t <strong>in</strong> thepathway.These changes are made by vary<strong>in</strong>g the structure of glycosidicproducts and the polymeric length of products accord<strong>in</strong>g to the basicBIOspektrum | Tagungsband <strong>2012</strong>

Berditsch* 1 , T. Vladimirova 1 , T. Jäger 1 , P. Wadhwani 2 , A.S. Ulrich 1,21 Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Institute of Organic Chemistry/Chairof Biochemistry, Karlsruhe, Germany2 Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Institute of Biological Interfaces (IBG-2), Karlsruhe, GermanyQuestion: One of the survival strategies of bacterial populations is theproduction of a small number of dormant persister cells that grow <strong>in</strong> aform of small-colony variants (SCVs) [1]. These are tolerant to antibioticsand represent an attached bacterial growth <strong>in</strong> microbiofilm mode. Thetransition <strong>in</strong>to the dormant stage occurs dur<strong>in</strong>g the SOS response and ismodulated <strong>in</strong> E.coli by the membrane associated TisB peptide, whichdecreases proton motive force and ATP biosynthesis [2]. We observed thatantimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which <strong>in</strong>teract with the bacterial plasmamembrane and perturb its <strong>in</strong>tegrity [3], can have a similar effect as TisBand lead to the generation of undesirable persister cells. S<strong>in</strong>ce these cellsreduce their metabolic activity, we suggest that cell respiration may serveas a possible <strong>in</strong>dicator of the transition of cells <strong>in</strong>to the dormant stage.Method: We developed a microdilution alamarBlue respiration assayfor monitor<strong>in</strong>g the Bacterial Respiration (BR) as a cellular response tounfavourable conditions. The respiration activity of four bacterial stra<strong>in</strong>swas measured as a difference <strong>in</strong> the absorption between reduced andoxidized forms of the redox <strong>in</strong>dicator alamarBlue dur<strong>in</strong>g 3 hours after<strong>in</strong>oculation. The microtiter plates were then <strong>in</strong>cubated for 24 hours at 37°Cto evaluate the ability of cells to grow.Results: By monitor<strong>in</strong>g of BR, we observed three different k<strong>in</strong>ds ofrespiration activity with respect to bacterial growth: activation, correlation,or shutdown, - depend<strong>in</strong>g on the comb<strong>in</strong>ation of bacteria and AMP.Shutdown of <strong>in</strong>itial BR at sub-MIC and subsequent growth at higherpeptide concentrations was observed for S.aureus upon exposure to MAP,PGLa, Maga<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong> and a comb<strong>in</strong>ation of PGLa/Maga<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>. In those cases,s<strong>in</strong>gle cells of S.aureus were found to survive and form SCVs, which werevisible by magnification and were detectable via dye reduction.Conclusion: These f<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>gs suggest that exposure of S.aureus to thesemembrane-active AMPs <strong>in</strong>duces a transition of s<strong>in</strong>gle cells <strong>in</strong>to thedormant stage, which can enhance risk of persistent <strong>in</strong>fections.1.

PCC 6803B. Roenneke*, K. Mar<strong>in</strong>Universität zu Köln, Institut für Biochemie, Köln, GermanyUnder osmotic stress the synthesis and accumulation of the compatiblesolute glucosylglycerol <strong>in</strong> the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803is facilitated by the activation and f<strong>in</strong>e tun<strong>in</strong>g of the key enzyme of thepathway the Glucosylglycerole phosphate synthase (GgpS). At low saltconcentrations GgpS is <strong>in</strong>hibited via an electrostatic <strong>in</strong>teraction withnucleic acids (Novak et. al 2010). Upon a sudden <strong>in</strong>crease of the saltconcentration GgpS is liberated and present <strong>in</strong> its active form. Dur<strong>in</strong>g saltacclimation the largest fraction of GgpS is rebound by nucleic acids whilethe rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g active molecules ensure the ongo<strong>in</strong>g GG-Synthesisaccord<strong>in</strong>g to the external salt concentration and growth rate.Biot<strong>in</strong>ylation assays revealed the possible b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g site for nucleic acids an-helix near the active centre of GgpS. Four positively charged am<strong>in</strong>oacids might contribute to the <strong>in</strong>teraction, s<strong>in</strong>ce an exchanged of theseam<strong>in</strong>o acids aga<strong>in</strong>st alan<strong>in</strong>e caused a reduced aff<strong>in</strong>ity for the b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g andhad an impact on enzyme activity. We found that b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g to nucleic acidsleads to a conformational change of the prote<strong>in</strong> and characterised theb<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g and <strong>in</strong>hibition k<strong>in</strong>etics.Additionally, we compared regulatory features of GgpS enzymes orsimilar trehalose phosphate synthases (TPS) orig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from organismsadapted to different environments with respect to fluctuations of the saltconcentration. We found prote<strong>in</strong>s that do or do not b<strong>in</strong>d to nucleic acidsand are or are not <strong>in</strong>hibited accord<strong>in</strong>gly. The structural differences and theimpact of the regulatory circuit of osmolyte synthesis will be discussed.SSP004MscCG of Corynebacterium glutamicum - a mechanosensitivechannel with dual function <strong>in</strong> osmotic stress response andglutamate productionM. Becker*, K. Börngen, R. KrämerUniversität zu Köln, Institut für Biochemie, Köln, GermanyCorynebacterium glutamicum is a gram-positive, biot<strong>in</strong> auxotroph andapathogenic soil bacterium with exceptional importance for the <strong>in</strong>dustrialproduction of various am<strong>in</strong>o acids, especially L-glutamate. Themechanism of glutamate export is not fully understood so far, although C.glutamicum has been used for the <strong>in</strong>dustrial production of am<strong>in</strong>o acids fordecades. Glutamate excretion can be <strong>in</strong>duced by several differenttreatments, all alter<strong>in</strong>g the cell envelope. Recently, evidence was providedthat the small MS channel prote<strong>in</strong> MscCG of C. glutamicum is l<strong>in</strong>ked toglutamate excretion under glutamate production conditions. MscCGbelongs to the MscS-type family of mechanosensitive channels,function<strong>in</strong>g as emergency valves upon an osmotic downshift. The prote<strong>in</strong>is a close relative of the mechanosensitive channel MscS from E. coli (286AA) concern<strong>in</strong>g its N-term<strong>in</strong>al and pore region. In addition, MscCGcarries a long C-term<strong>in</strong>al doma<strong>in</strong> of 247 am<strong>in</strong>o acids <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g a fourthtransmembrane doma<strong>in</strong>. The electrophysiological analysis of MscCGshowed the typical pressure dependent gat<strong>in</strong>g behavior of a stretchactivatedchannel with a current/voltage dependence <strong>in</strong>dicat<strong>in</strong>g a stronglyrectify<strong>in</strong>g behavior. To unravel the dual function of MscCG as amechanosensitive channel and as a glutamate exporter, the wellcharacterized E. coli homolog of MscCG, MscS, was used and expressed<strong>in</strong> a mscCG stra<strong>in</strong>. We also generated selected C-term<strong>in</strong>al truncations ofMscCG <strong>in</strong> C. glutamicum, ga<strong>in</strong>-of-function and loss-of-function constructsof both E. coli MscS and C. glutamicum MscCG, as well as fusionconstructs of these two prote<strong>in</strong>s, and we have <strong>in</strong>vestigated the properties ofthese constructs with respect to mechanosensitive efflux, electricalconductance, gat<strong>in</strong>g properties, as well as glutamate excretion. Variousrecomb<strong>in</strong>ant forms of MscCG were shown to be closely similar withrespect to conductance, but we found significantly differences concern<strong>in</strong>gglutamate excretion. The results of these experiments argue for MscCGbe<strong>in</strong>g both a relevant mechanosensitive channel <strong>in</strong> C. glutamicum uponhypoosmotic stress as well as the major efflux pathway for glutamateexcretion <strong>in</strong> response to particular physiologic conditions. Moreover, theresults obta<strong>in</strong>ed <strong>in</strong>dicate the C-term<strong>in</strong>al doma<strong>in</strong> of MscCG be<strong>in</strong>g ofsignificant impact for function and/or regulation of MscCG activity.SSP005Insights <strong>in</strong>to biofilm formation by <strong>in</strong>itial proteome analysisof a novel Antarctic haloarchaeal isolateS. Fröls* 1 , G. Losensky 1 , M. Dyall-Smith 2 , F. Pfeifer 11 TU Darmstadt, Institut für Mikrobiologie und Genetik , Darmstadt, Germany2 Charles Sturt University, School of Biomedical Sciences, Wagga Wagga,AustraliaThe formation of biofilms <strong>in</strong>itiated by the adhesion to surfaces turns out tobe the most dom<strong>in</strong>ant mode of life of microorganisms <strong>in</strong> nature. Thescreen<strong>in</strong>g and characterisation of various haloarchaea stra<strong>in</strong>s and isolatesdemonstrated that the ability for adhesion is widely distributed with<strong>in</strong> thegenera Halobacterium sal<strong>in</strong>arumand Haloferax. Further characterisationshowed that the adhesive stra<strong>in</strong>s were able to form biofilms. Based on thisobservation we tested seven novel isolates from water samples of ahypersal<strong>in</strong>e Antarctic deep lake by a fluorescence-based assay foradhesion. In comparison to the other haloarchaea the novel Antarcticisolate DL24 showed the highest adhesion signal and was chosen for moredetailed analyses. Isolate DL24 is a rod shaped, motile, extremelyhalophilic archaeon, represent<strong>in</strong>g a new genus of the Halobacteriaceae.Thecells are able to adhere on glass and plastic surfaces form<strong>in</strong>g biofilms ofdense packed multi cell layers with tower<strong>in</strong>g macrocolonies up to 50 m <strong>in</strong>height. Extra polymeric substances (EPS) were composed of free nucleicacids and glycoconjugates.To identify factors <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> adhesion a proteome analyses of wholeprote<strong>in</strong> fractions were carried out by mass spectrometry. By comparativeanalysis 220 prote<strong>in</strong>s were exclusively identified <strong>in</strong> the prote<strong>in</strong> fraction ofadherent cells. Among these were transcriptional regulators, differentfactors of two-component systems, a glycosyltransferase, a surfaceglycoprote<strong>in</strong> as well as prote<strong>in</strong>s required for a functional type IV pilisystem. The largest group of prote<strong>in</strong>s corresponded to transport systemssuch as sugar, ion and multidrug transporters. In addition prote<strong>in</strong>sdemonstrat<strong>in</strong>g a transition from aerob to anaerobic energy conversion werefound. This <strong>in</strong>itial proteome analyses showed dist<strong>in</strong>ct differences betweenthe adherent and planktonic lifestyle belong to environmental response,transcriptional differentiation, adhesion and biofilm maturation.BIOspektrum | Tagungsband <strong>2012</strong>
