  1. Integrated Bioinformatics • Comparison of genomes – Scenario • Regular expressions in Python • Installing and running Blast • How to find differences • Nature of research articles

  2. Escherichia coli . . . . . . very small lab rats Courtesy of Kent State University Microbiology E. coli: What makes it kill?

  3. E. coli: What makes it kill? Escherichia coli . . . • Shiga toxin-producing • a.k.a. enterohemorrhagicE. coli (EHEC). • EnterotoxigenicE. coli • EnteropathogenicE. coli (EPEC) • EnteroaggregativeE. coli (EAEC) • EnteroinvasiveE. coli (EIEC) • Diffusely adherent E. coli (DAEC) At least six different dirarrheal "pathotypes" of E. coli ! http://www.cdc.gov/ecoli/general

  4. E. coli: What makes it kill? E. coli O157:H7 . . . The classic baddie!! • Shiga toxin-producing (STEC) • a.k.a. enterohemorrhagicE. coli (EHEC) • First described as a pathogen in 1982 • The most prevalent in foodborne outbreaks • Most self-resolving diarrhea and vomiting • Hemolytic urinary syndrome a serious complication Easily the most extensively studied pathogenic E. coli

  5. E. coli: What makes it kill? E. coli O104:H4 . . . The up-and-comer • EnteroaggregativeE. coli (EAEC) • …but with acquired Shiga toxin genes! • First described as a pathogen in 2005 (only one case!), but caused a huge outbreak in Germany in 2011 • German outbreak traced back to sprouts! • 3,950 people affected, with 53 deaths, and 800 cases of hemolytic urinary syndrome Good example of how "new" pathogens can suddenly emerge

  6. Research papers Perna, N. T., G. Plunkett, 3rd, et al. (2001) Genome sequence of enterohaemorrhagicEscherichia coli O157:H7. Nature 409(6819): 529-33 Hayashi, T., K. Makino, et al.

  9. Killer protein Killer functions Membrane protein, sodium transporter Iron responsive transcriptional regulator Calcium-dependent protein kinase Unknown protein Unknown protein Unknown protein . . . Similarity finder • Suggests therapeutic interventions E. coli: What makes it kill? How do these differences arise?

  10. How do genomic differences arise? Point mutation organism 1 TTT TCT GAA TCC GTA GAC GTT organism 2 TTT TCT GAA TCA GCA GAC GTG What kind of mutations arise? Can these explain the difference between K12 and O157:H7??

  11. DNA mutation has multiple causes! • Errors during DNA replication • base mis-incorporation • polymerase slippage / repeat amplification • Errors during recombination or cell division • chromosome loss or rearrangement • large insertions or deletions • Environmental factors – mutagens: • radiation – UV or ionizing radiation • chemical – many mechanism of action • Spontaneous events: • tautomerisation • depurination • deamination • Viral infection or transposons

  12. How to distinguish from ? How do genomic differences arise? Addition/deletion of DNA Where do they come from? – GC-content?
