Avirulent phenotype promotes Bordetella pertussis adaptation to the intramacrophage environment

Mariam R. Farman et al.

Summary: The causative agent of whooping cough is Bordetella pertussis, a strictly human pathogen that can escape phagocytic killing and survive within macrophages. It has been found that the transition to an avirulent phase, Bvg(-), allows B. pertussis cells to adapt to the macrophage environment by adjusting central and energy metabolism, cell wall reinforcement, redox and metal homeostasis, and repairing damaged macromolecules. The downregulation of the BvgAS two-component system is involved in this adaptive response, although other regulators may also play a role. Furthermore, genes involved in sulphur metabolism are strongly modulated within macrophages, and the absence of cysteine dioxygenase genes leads to reduced cytotoxicity towards THP-1 cells.

BopN is a Gatekeeper of the Bordetella Type III Secretion System

Kevin Munoz Navarrete et al.

Summary: The study reveals that BopN is a gatekeeper of the Bordetella T3SS, responsible for regulating the secretion and translocation of the BteA effector into host cells. It is similar to gatekeepers that control access to the T3SS channel from the bacterial cytoplasm. Deletion of the bopN gene in B. bronchiseptica increased secretion of BteA, but decreased the translocation of BteA into host cell cytoplasm.

Interference of flagellar rotation up-regulates the expression of small RNA contributing to Bordetella pertussis infection

Yukihiro Hiramatsu et al.

Summary: A bacterial small RNA called Bpr4 was found to contribute to Bordetella pertussis infection by up-regulating the expression of a major adhesin called filamentous hemagglutinin (FHA) posttranscriptionally. Bpr4 up-regulation was triggered by interference with flagellar rotation, leading to activation of a diguanylate cyclase and subsequent up-regulation of Bpr4.

Omics Analysis of Blood-Responsive Regulon in Bordetella pertussis Identifies a Novel Essential T3SS Substrate

Jakub Drzmisek et al.

Summary: Bacterial pathogen Bordetella pertussis, the causal agent of whooping cough, shows adaptive gene expression changes in response to specific cues from different host niches, particularly when in contact with blood. The majority of these blood-specific effects diminish upon loss of blood contact, except for the continued expression of certain genes. The findings highlight the importance of blood contact as a significant cue for B. pertussis cells.

Pathogenicity and virulence of Bordetella pertussis and its adaptation to its strictly human host

Thomas Belcher et al.

Summary: Bordetella pertussis, the highly contagious agent of whooping cough, has evolved as a successful human pathogen by acquiring virulence factors and adapting its metabolism to the human respiratory tract. It overcomes host immune defenses through sophisticated mechanisms and interferes with vaccine-induced adaptive immunity. Ongoing evolutionary adaptation has made B. pertussis a highly successful human pathogen.

Highly accurate protein structure prediction with AlphaFold

John Jumper et al.

Summary: Proteins are essential for life, and accurate prediction of their structures is a crucial research problem. Current experimental methods are time-consuming, highlighting the need for accurate computational approaches to address the gap in structural coverage. Despite recent progress, existing methods fall short of atomic accuracy in protein structure prediction.

Comparative Omics Analysis of Historic and Recent Isolates of Bordetella pertussis and Effects of Genome Rearrangements on Evolution

Ana Dienstbier et al.

Summary: Despite high vaccination coverage, pertussis is increasing in many industrialized countries, including the Czech Republic. Analysis of historic strains and recent clinical isolates of Bordetella pertussis showed substantial differences in genome organization, leading to altered transcriptomic and proteomic profiles. Recent isolates exhibited increased expression of certain genes compared to historic strains, suggesting a potential link between these genetic changes and the resurgence of pertussis.
