项目摘要

Abstract: Clostridioides difficile is the most prevalent cause of hospital associated infections (HAIs). As an obligately anaerobic pathogen, C. difficile can consume diverse carbon sources to support gut colonization and infection. In particular, glycolytic and Stickland amino acid fermentation pathways have been shown to support rapid growth, a finding that also occurs after antibiotic treatment elevates availability of these nutrient sources by removing competitive commensal species. However, the metabolic pathways of obligately anaerobic bacteria remain ill-defined, limiting capacity to identify preventive and therapeutic interventions that target C. difficile’s core physiology. To address these limitations, we will employ carbon-13 (13C) NMR of C. difficile’s dynamic metabolism to inform a genome-scale metabolic model and clearly define metabolic integration points among energy-generating glycolytic and amino acid fermentation pathways. Findings will be evaluated in targeted genetic mutants and with combinations of fermentable carbon sources to evaluate their impact on pathogen growth and virulence.

摘要：梭状芽胞杆菌艰难梭菌是医院相关感染的最普遍原因（海斯）。作为一种绝对的厌氧病原体，艰难梭菌可以将多种碳源消耗到支持肠道定植和感染。特别是糖酵解和棒状氨基酸氨基酸发酵途径已显示支持快速生长，这一发现也发生在抗生素治疗通过消除竞争性来提高这些养分来源的可用性共生物种。但是，厌氧菌的代谢途径仍然存在定义不明，限制能力，以识别针对C的预防和治疗干预措施。困难的核心生理。为了解决这些限制，我们将使用碳13（13C）NMR 艰难梭菌的动态代谢，以告知基因组级代谢模型并明确定义能量产生糖酵解和氨基酸发酵之间的代谢整合点途径。发现将在靶向的遗传突变体中评估，并结合可发酵的碳源评估其对病原体生长和病毒的影响。
