An <i>E. coli</i> CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) strain was constructed to allow control of <i>lptD</i> expression. Induction of the CRISPRi system led to ∼440-fold reduction of gene expression. Dose-dependent growth inhibition was observed, where strong knockdown effectively inhibited initial growth but partial knockdown exhibited maximum overall killing after 24 h. LptD depletion led to morphological changes where cells exhibited long, filamentous cell shapes and cytoplasmic accumulation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Transcriptional profiling by RNA-Seq showed that LptD knockdown led to upregulation of carbohydrate metabolism, especially in the colanic acid biosynthesis pathway. This pathway was further overexpressed in the presence of sublethal concentrations of colistin, an antibiotic targeting LPS, indicating a specific transcriptional response to this synergistic envelope damage. Additionally, exposure to colistin during LptD depletion resulted in downregulation of pathways related to motility and chemotaxis, two important virulence traits. Altogether, these results show that LptD depletion (i) affects <i>E. coli</i> survival, (ii) upregulates carbohydrate metabolism, and (iii) synergizes with the antimicrobial activity of colistin.</p>","PeriodicalId":73024,"journal":{"name":"FEMS microbes","volume":"4 ","pages":"xtad013"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10495129/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10232305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Workflows for wastewater surveillance generally rely on concentration steps to increase the probability of detection of low-abundance targets, but preconcentration can substantially increase the time and cost of analyses while also introducing additional loss of target during processing. To address some of these issues, we conducted a longitudinal study implementing a simplified workflow for SARS-CoV-2 detection from wastewater, using a direct column-based extraction approach. Composite influent wastewater samples were collected weekly for 1 year between June 2020 and June 2021 in Athens-Clarke County, Georgia, USA. Bypassing any concentration step, low volumes (280 µl) of influent wastewater were extracted using a commercial kit, and immediately analyzed by RT-qPCR for the SARS-CoV-2 N1 and N2 gene targets. SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA was detected in 76% (193/254) of influent samples, and the recovery of the surrogate bovine coronavirus was 42% (IQR: 28%, 59%). N1 and N2 assay positivity, viral concentration, and flow-adjusted daily viral load correlated significantly with per-capita case reports of COVID-19 at the county-level (ρ = 0.69-0.82). To compensate for the method's high limit of detection (approximately 10<sup>6</sup>-10<sup>7</sup> copies l<sup>-1</sup> in wastewater), we extracted multiple small-volume replicates of each wastewater sample. With this approach, we detected as few as five cases of COVID-19 per 100 000 individuals.
