Title Global gene expression profiles of Mycobacterium smegmatis under shock and mild nutrient starvation
Organism Mycolicibacterium smegmatis MC2 155
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Mycobacteria are known to be non-spore forming but very hardy: the bacilli can for instance survive starvation in zero-nutrient saline in a non-replicating state. Recently we reported that mycobacteria in fact can undergo cellular differentiation when exposed to different starvation conditions. The presence of traces of nutrients triggers the development of a new, ‘small resting cell’ form (SMRCs). Saline shock-starved large resting cells (LARCs), which did not show cell size or surface changes when observed by scanning electron microscopy, remodeled their internal structure to the septated, multi-nucleoided cells seen during differentiation to SMRCs. Here we conduct RNA-seq to gain greater insights into whether starvation elicited a distinct developmental pathway. Comparative transcriptome analysis of SMRC and LARC development revealed largely overlapping sets of differentially expressed regulatory and metabolic genes. These transcriptome data are consistent with a mycobacterial starvation-induced differentiation program in which at first septated, multi-nuceloided cells are generated. Under zero-nutrient conditions bacteria terminate development at this stage as LARCs. In the presence of traces of a carbon source, these multi-nucleoided cells continue differentiation into mono-nuleoided SMRCs.
 
Overall design Exponentially growing M. smegmatis in rich 7H9 medium (0h sample, baseline) was transferred to PBS or PBS-Tween80 and RNA was sampled and sequenced after 1h and 3h to capture immediate responses, and after 24h when LARC formation in PBS cultures and SMRC formation in PBS-Tween80 culture are completed. In addition we sampled 14d old starved cultures to determine long term gene expression changes.
