Transposon mutagenesis greatly facilitates the study of gene function in microorganisms ranging from viruses to fungi. Traditionally, one would study individual transposon mutants with interesting phenotypes one mutant at a time. Here, we describe methods for the study of tens of thousands of transposon mutants in parallel in the bacterial pathogenVibrio choleraeusing transposon-sequencing. The first section outlines methods for making a saturated transposon mutant library. The second section outlines methods for massively parallel sequencing of the transposon junctions.

Transposon mutagenesis has been the method of choice for genetic screens and selections in bacteria by virtue of the transposon being linked to the disrupted gene, simplifying its identification. Transposon sequencing (Tn-seq) is a high-throughput version of transposon mutant screening, in which massively parallel sequencing is used to simultaneously follow the fitness of all mutants in a complex library. In a single experiment, one can use Tn-seq to interrogate the contribution of all genes of a bacterium to fitness under a condition of interest. Here, we introduce a method to construct a sat

ABSTRACT To effectively analyze Mycoplasma gallisepticum for virulence-associated determinants, the ability to create stable genetic mutations is essential. Global M. gallisepticum mutagenesis is currently limited to the use of transposons. Using the gram-positive transposon Tn4001mod, a mutant library of 110 transformants was constructed and all insertion sites were mapped. To identify transposon insertion points, a unique primer directed outward from the end of Tn4001mod was used to sequence flanking genomic regions. By comparing sequences obtained in this manner to the annotated M. gallisep

ABSTRACTMutant hunts using comprehensive sequence-defined libraries make it possible to identify virtually all of the nonessential functions required for different bacterial processes. However, the success of such screening depends on the accuracy of mutant identification in the mutant library used.

ABSTRACT Streptococcus parasanguis, a primary colonizer of the tooth surface, has long, peritrichous fimbriae. A fimbria-associated protein, Fap1, is identified as an adhesin of S. parasanguis FW213. The mature Fap1 protein is glycosylated, and the glycosylation is required for fimbria biogenesis and bacterial adhesion. Little is known about the mechanism of Fap1 glycosylation due to the lack of identifiable mutants. A novel transposon mutagenesis system was established and used to generate a mutant library.

Multidrug-resistant P. aeruginosa infections pose a serious public health threat due to the rise in antimicrobial resistance. Phage therapy has emerged as a promising alternative. However, P. aeruginosa has evolved various mechanisms to thwart phage attacks, making it crucial to decipher these resistance mechanisms to develop effective therapeutic strategies. In this study, we conducted a forward-genetic screen of the P. aeruginosa PA14 non-redundant transposon library (PA14NR) to identify dominant-negative mutants displaying phage-resistant phenotypes.

ABSTRACT Transposon mutagenesis is a tool that is widely used for the identification of genes involved in the virulence of bacteria. Until now, transposon mutagenesis in Clostridium perfringens has been restricted to the use of Tn916-based methods with laboratory reference strains. This system yields primarily multiple transposon insertions in a single genome, thus compromising its use for the identification of virulence genes. The current study describes a new protocol for transposon mutagenesis in C. perfringens, which is based on the bacteriophage Mu transposition system. The protocol was s

Burkholderia kururiensis M130 is one of the few rice endophytic diazotrophic bacteria identified thus far which is able to enhance growth of rice. To date, very little is known of how strain M130 and other endophytes enter and colonize plants. Here, we identified genes of strain M130 that are differentially regulated in the presence of rice plant extract. A genetic screening of a promoter probe transposon mutant genome bank and RNAseq analysis were performed. The screening of 10,100 insertions of the genomic transposon reporter library resulted in the isolation of 61 insertions displaying diff

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a leading cause of life-threatening endovascular infections. Endothelial cell (EC) damage is a key factor in the pathogenesis of these syndromes.

This study aims to identify genetic determinants that impact human EC damage by screening the genome-wide Nebraska Transposon Mutant Library (NTML). A well-established MTT assay was used to test the in vitro damage of human EC cell line (HMEC-1) caused by each mutant strain in the NTML. We first confirmed some global reg

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen associated with a variety of life-threatening diseases. Infections caused by P. aeruginosa can be nearly untreatable because of its multidrug-resistance. One of the characteristics of P. aeruginosa that helps it survive in high drug concentrations is its ability to form biofilms–large communities of cells encompassed by extracellular polymeric substances that defend against many antibiotics. In fact, sub-minimum inhibitory concentrations of antibiotics stimulate biofilm production. This project aims to identify genes associated with biofilm i

ABSTRACT The type III secretion system (T3SS) of Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important virulence factor. The T3SS of P. aeruginosa can be induced by a low calcium signal or upon direct contact with the host cells. The exact pathway of signal sensing and T3SS activation is not clear. By screening a transposon insertion mutant library of the PAK strain, mutation in the mucA gene was found to cause repression of T3SS expression under both type III-inducing and -noninducing conditions. Mutation in the mucA gene is known to cause alginate overproduction, resulting in a mucoid phenotype. Alginate p

Loci contributing to the primary phenotypic innovation were sought by screening a WS transposon library for niche-defective (WS-) mutants. Detailed analysis of one group o
