Functional genomics of the initial phase of cold adaptation of Pseudomonas putida KT2440

Abstract (Expand)

The cold stress response of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 was investigated by genomewide deep cDNA sequencing and gel-free MS-based protein profiling. Transcriptome and proteome profiles were assessed at … 30 degrees C and 2 h after a downshift from 30 to 10 degrees C. Pseudomonas putida adapted to lower ambient temperature by the activation of ribosome-associated functional modules that facilitate translational efficiency. The outer membrane profile was reorganized, anabolic pathways and core as well as energy metabolism were repressed and the alginate regulon and sugar catabolism were activated. At the investigated early time point of cold adaptation, the transcriptome was reprogrammed in almost all functional categories, but the protein profile had still not adapted to the change of living conditions in the cold.

Pseudomonas putida KT2440 genome update by cDNA sequencing and microarray transcriptomics

Abstract (Expand)

Pseudomonas putida KT2440 is a completely sequenced biosafety strain that has retained its capability to survive and function in the environment. The global mRNA expression profiles of the KT2440 strain … grown at 10 degrees C and 30 degrees C were determined by deep cDNA sequencing to refine the genome annotation. Transcriptome sequencing identified 36 yet unknown small non-coding RNAs, 143 novel ORFs in 106 intergenic regions, 42 unclassified genes and eight highly expressed leaderless mRNA transcripts. The genome coordinates of eight genes and the organization of 57 operons were corrected. No overrepresented sequence motifs were detected in the 5'-untranslated regions. The 50 most highly expressed genes made up 60% of the total mRNA pool. Comparison of cDNA sequencing, Affymetrix and Progenika microarray data from the same mRNA preparation revealed a higher sensitivity and specificity of cDNA sequencing, a relatively poor correlation between the normalized cDNA reads and microarray signal intensities, and a systematic signal-dependent bias of microarrays in the detection of differentially regulated genes. The study demonstrates the power of next-generation cDNA sequencing for the quantitation of mRNA transcripts and the refinement of bacterial genome annotation.
