Ranking essential bacterial processes by speed of mutant death.

Abstract:

:Mutant phenotype analysis of bacteria has been revolutionized by genome-scale screening procedures, but essential genes have been left out of such studies because mutants are missing from the libraries analyzed. Since essential genes control the most fundamental processes of bacterial life, this is a glaring deficiency. To address this limitation, we developed a procedure for transposon insertion mutant sequencing that includes essential genes. The method, called transformation transposon insertion mutant sequencing (TFNseq), employs saturation-level libraries of bacterial mutants generated by natural transformation with chromosomal DNA mutagenized heavily by in vitro transposition. The efficient mutagenesis makes it possible to detect large numbers of insertions in essential genes immediately after transformation and to follow their loss during subsequent growth. It was possible to order 45 essential processes based on how rapidly their inactivation inhibited growth. Inactivating ATP production, deoxyribonucleotide synthesis, or ribosome production blocked growth the fastest, whereas inactivating cell division or outer membrane protein synthesis blocked it the slowest. Individual mutants deleted of essential loci formed microcolonies of nongrowing cells whose sizes were generally consistent with the TFNseq ordering. The sensitivity of essential functions to genetic inactivation provides a metric for ranking their relative importance for bacterial replication and growth. Highly sensitive functions could represent attractive antibiotic targets since even partial inhibition should reduce growth.
