text: A key attribute of persistent or recurring bacterial infections is the ability
of the pathogen to evade the host’s immune response. Many Enterobacteriaceae express
type 1 pili, a pre-adapted virulence trait, to invade host epithelial cells and
establish persistent infections. However, the molecular mechanisms and strategies
by which bacteria actively circumvent the immune response of the host remain poorly
understood. Here, we identified CD14, the major co-receptor for lipopolysaccharide
detection, on mouse dendritic cells (DCs) as a binding partner of FimH, the protein
located at the tip of the type 1 pilus of Escherichia coli. The FimH amino acids
involved in CD14 binding are highly conserved across pathogenic and non-pathogenic
strains. Binding of the pathogenic strain CFT073 to CD14 reduced DC migration
by overactivation of integrins and blunted expression of co-stimulatory molecules
by overactivating the NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T-cells) pathway, both
rate-limiting factors of T cell activation. This response was binary at the single-cell
level, but averaged in larger populations exposed to both piliated and non-piliated
pathogens, presumably via the exchange of immunomodulatory cytokines. While defining
an active molecular mechanism of immune evasion by pathogens, the interaction
between FimH and CD14 represents a potential target to interfere with persistent
and recurrent infections, such as urinary tract infections or Crohn’s disease.

text: Gene expression levels are influenced by multiple coexisting molecular mechanisms.
Some of these interactions such as those of transcription factors and promoters
have been studied extensively. However, predicting phenotypes of gene regulatory
networks (GRNs) remains a major challenge. Here, we use a well-defined synthetic
GRN to study in Escherichia coli how network phenotypes depend on local genetic
context, i.e. the genetic neighborhood of a transcription factor and its relative
position. We show that one GRN with fixed topology can display not only quantitatively
but also qualitatively different phenotypes, depending solely on the local genetic
context of its components. Transcriptional read-through is the main molecular
mechanism that places one transcriptional unit (TU) within two separate regulons
without the need for complex regulatory sequences. We propose that relative order
of individual TUs, with its potential for combinatorial complexity, plays an important
role in shaping phenotypes of GRNs.

text: Bacteria-host interactions represent a continuous trade-off between benefit
and risk. Thus, the host immune response is faced with a non-trivial problem –
accommodate beneficial commensals and remove harmful pathogens. This is especially
difficult as molecular patterns, such as lipopolysaccharide or specific surface
organelles such as pili, are conserved in both, commensal and pathogenic bacteria.
Type 1 pili, tightly regulated by phase variation, are considered an important
virulence factor of pathogenic bacteria as they facilitate invasion into host
cells. While invasion represents a de facto passive mechanism for pathogens to
escape the host immune response, we demonstrate a fundamental role of type 1 pili
as active modulators of the innate and adaptive immune response.

text: Buffers are essential for diluting bacterial cultures for flow cytometry analysis
in order to study bacterial physiology and gene expression parameters based on
fluorescence signals. Using a variety of constitutively expressed fluorescent
proteins in Escherichia coli K-12 strain MG1655, we found strong artifactual changes
in fluorescence levels after dilution into the commonly used flow cytometry buffer
phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and two other buffer solutions, Tris-HCl and M9
salts. These changes appeared very rapidly after dilution, and were linked to
increased membrane permeability and loss in cell viability. We observed buffer-related
effects in several different E. coli strains, K-12, C and W, but not E. coli B,
which can be partially explained by differences in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and
outer membrane composition. Supplementing the buffers with divalent cations responsible
for outer membrane stability, Mg2+ and Ca2+, preserved fluorescence signals, membrane
integrity and viability of E. coli. Thus, stabilizing the bacterial outer membrane
is essential for precise and unbiased measurements of fluorescence parameters
using flow cytometry.

text: The molecular mechanisms underlying phenotypic variation in isogenic bacterial
populations remain poorly understood.We report that AcrAB-TolC, the main multidrug
efflux pump of Escherichia coli, exhibits a strong partitioning bias for old cell
poles by a segregation mechanism that is mediated by ternary AcrAB-TolC complex
formation. Mother cells inheriting old poles are phenotypically distinct and display
increased drug efflux activity relative to daughters. Consequently, we find systematic
and long-lived growth differences between mother and daughter cells in the presence
of subinhibitory drug concentrations. A simple model for biased partitioning predicts
a population structure of long-lived and highly heterogeneous phenotypes. This
straightforward mechanism of generating sustained growth rate differences at subinhibitory
antibiotic concentrations has implications for understanding the emergence of
multidrug resistance in bacteria.

text: "This repository contains the data collected for the manuscript \"Biased partitioning
of the multi-drug efflux pump AcrAB-TolC underlies long-lived phenotypic heterogeneity\".\r\nThe
data is compressed into a single archive. Within the archive, different folders
correspond to figures of the main text and the SI of the related publication.\r\nData
is saved as plain text, with each folder containing a separate readme file describing
the format. Typically, the data is from fluorescence microscopy measurements of
single cells growing in a microfluidic \"mother machine\" device, and consists
of relevant values (primarily arbitrary unit or normalized fluorescence measurements,
and division times / growth rates) after raw microscopy images have been processed,
segmented, and their features extracted, as described in the methods section of
the related publication."
