Özet

© 2022 Elsevier B.V.In this study, comparative transcriptomic analyzes (mRNA and miRNA) were performed on the biofilm forms of S. Typhimurium ATCC 14028 wild-type strain and its seqA gene mutant in order to determine the regulation characteristics of the seqA gene in detail. The results of global gene expression analyses showed an increase in the expression level of 54 genes and a decrease in the expression level of 155 genes (p < 0.05) in the seqA mutant compared to the wild-type strain. 10 of the 48 miRNAs identified on behalf of sequence analysis are new miRNA records for Salmonella. Transcripts of 14 miRNAs differed between wild-type strain and seqA mutant (p < 0.05), of which eight were up-regulated and six were down-regulated. Bioinformatic analyzes showed that differentially expressed genes in the wild-type strain and its seqA gene mutant play a role in different metabolic processes as well as biofilm formation, pathogenicity and virulence. When the transcriptomic data were interpreted together with the findings obtained from phenotypic tests such as motility, attachment to host cells and biofilm morphotyping, it was determined that the seqA gene has a critical function especially for the adhesion and colonization stages of biofilm formation, as well as for biofilm stability. Transcriptomic data pointing out that the seqA gene is also a general positive regulator of T3SS effector proteins active in cell invasion in S. Typhimurium wild-type biofilm, proves that this gene is involved in Salmonella host cell invasion.
