Project Title:Bacteroides-derived sphingolipids are critical for maintaining intestinal homeostasis and symbiosis
Project Summary:Sphingolipids are structural membrane components and important eukaryotic signaling molecules. We hypothesized that sphingolipids mediate intestinal health as they were identified as the most upregulated metabolite feature in stool of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Commensal Bacteroidetes also produce sphingolipids, but the impact of these metabolites on host pathways is largely uncharacterized. To study Bacteroidetes sphingolipids in intestinal health, we colonized germ-free mice with a sphingolipid-deficient Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron strain. A lack of Bacteroides-derived sphingolipids increased intestinal inflammation, dysregulated innate immunity and altered the host ceramide pool. Using metabolomic analysis, we described the Bacteroides sphingolipid biosynthesis pathway and revealed a greater variety of Bacteroides-derived sphingolipids than previously recognized, including ceramide phosphoinositol and deoxy-sphingolipids. We annotated Bacteroides sphingolipids in an IBD metabolomic dataset, discovering lower abundances in IBD and negative correlations with gut inflammation and host sphingolipid production. These data highlight the role of sphingolipids in maintaining host-bacterial symbiosis and intestinal homeostasis.

Collection:

Collection ID:CO001180
Collection Summary:WT and ΔSPT cultures of B. thetaiotaomicron and B. ovatus were grown in 5 mL of BHI liquid media supplemented with vitamin K and hemin. After 24 hrs, cultures were normalized by OD600 and centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 10 min to pellet cells. Resulting pellets were washed and further centrifuged twice to remove residual media. Resulting pellets were resuspended in 5 mL isopropanol + 0.1 ng/μL C24:0 PC, incubated at RT for 1 hr, and centrifuged for 10 min at 10,000g. From each sample, 2 μL was injected.

Storage Conditions:-80℃

Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR001201
Treatment Summary:In-frame deletion of the serine palmitoyl transferase gene (spt) in B. thetaiotaomicron Δtdk was generated using a counter-selectable allelic exchange procedure (Koropatkin et al., 2008). Briefly, a 2 kb fragment concatenating the 700 bp upstream sequence, the first 291bp of the SPT gene (BT0870) followed by a stop, and the 1 kb downstream sequences of SPT was synthesized by IDT. The in-frame deletion in spt encodes only the first 97 amino acids of the B. thetaiotaomicron Spt protein. This 2 kb fragment was amplified using primer pairs BT0870_Up700b_BamHI _F and BT0870_Down1kb_NotI_R and ligated into the suicide vector pExchange_tdk (obtained from Dr. Harry Brumer, UBC). The resulting pExchange_tdk_BT0870_DEL vector was electroporated into E. coli S17-1 λ pir and then conjugated into B. thetaiotaomicron VPI-5482. Single recombinants were selected on BHI agar plates containing gentamicin and erythromycin, cultured in liquid BHI medium overnight without antibiotics and then plated onto BHI agar plates containing 200 μg/mL 5-fluoro-2-deoxyuridine (FUdR). Single colonies of SPT deletion candidates were confirmed by PCR using the diagnostic primers BT0870_Up1kb_F and BT0870_Down1150b_R. The B. ovatus spt deletion mutant was generated in a similar fashion. Briefly, ~900 bp fragments upstream and downstream of the B. ovatus SPT (BACOVA_02588) were cloned and fused using primer pairs ΔSPT Xba1-UPF (5’AGTCACGACGTTGTAAAACGACGGCCAGT-3’), BamH1 UPR-(5’- GGCGTAATCATGGTCATAGCTGTTTCCTG-3’), EcoR1-DNF (5’- GTTGTAAAACGACGGCCAGT-3’) and HindIII-DNR (5’-GGCGTAATCATGGTCATAGC-3’), respectively, and ligated into pExchange_tdk. The resulting pExchange_tdk_BACOVA_02588_DEL vector was electroporated into E. coli S17-1 λ pir and then conjugated into B. ovatus ATCC 8483. Single recombinants were selected on BHI agar plates containing gentamicin and erythromycin, cultured in liquid BHI plus medium [BHI lemented with 5% heat inactivated fetal bovine serum, 1% vitamin 500 K1-hemin solution (Becton Dickinson), 1% trace mineral supplement (ATCC), 1% vitamin supplement (ATCC), 2.9 mM (+)-cellobiose (Becton Dickinson), 2.9 mM maltose (Hardy Diagnostics), 5.8 mM D-(−)- Fructose (Sigma) and 2.8 mM L-Cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate (Sigma)] overnight without antibiotics, and then plated onto BHI plus agar plates containing 200 μg/mL FUdR. Single colonies of SPT deletion candidates were screened and confirmed by PCR using the diagnostic primers BACOVA_02588 _Up1kb_F and BACOVA_02588 _Down1kb_R.
