Novel antimicrobial peptides and peptide-microbiome crosstalk in Appalachian salamander skin

Description

Host antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are an ancient defense system found in all multicellular organisms that interact with host microbiomes. We used multi-omics and mathematical tools to discover new AMPs and examine AMP-microbial interactions in three Appalachian salamander species (Plethodon cinereus, Eurycea bislineata and Notophthalmus viridescens). We conducted skin transcriptomics (n = 13), proteomics (n = 91) and AMP database querying to identify candidate AMPs. With candidate AMPs, we identified correlations with the skin microbiome (16S rRNA amplicon) and synthesized 20 peptides to use in challenge assays with pathogens of amphibians (Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis: Bd) and humans (ESKAPEE pathogen panel). Using transcriptomics, candidate AMP genes (30-67 genes) were detected in all individuals with Cathelidicin-like peptides being most common. Using proteomics, detectable AMPs were only found in a subset of salamanders (31/91) - predominately E. bislineata - with Kinin-like peptides being most common. Candidate AMP composition generally predicted skin bacterial composition. Crude and synthesized peptides showed limited activity against Bd. Two synthesized Cathelicidin-like peptides (from P. cinereus) showed moderate to strong killing activity against human pathogens, Acinetobacter baumannii and Escherichia coli. We show that mining under-studied taxa and using multi-omics fuels AMPs discovery, reveals dynamic AMPs-microbial relationships, and informs the therapeutic potential of AMPs usage in conservation and translational applications.

Click here to queue conversion of this dataset's submitted spectrum files to open formats (e.g. mzML). This process may take some time.

When complete, the converted files will be available in the "ccms_peak" subdirectory of the dataset's FTP space (accessible via the "FTP Download" link to the right).
Number of distinct conditions across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct condition labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "Condition" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct biological replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct replicate labels are counted across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category having a "BioReplicate" or "Replicate" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct technical replicates across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

The technical replicate count is defined as the maximum number of times any one distinct combination of condition and biological replicate was analyzed across all files submitted in the "Metadata" category. In the case of fractionated experiments, only the first fraction is considered.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Originally identified proteins that were automatically remapped by MassIVE to proteins in the SwissProt human reference database.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct protein accessions reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct unmodified peptide sequences reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct peptide sequences (including modified variants or peptidoforms) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Total number of peptide-spectrum matches (i.e. spectrum identifications) reported across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins quantified across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
Number of distinct proteins found to be differentially abundant in at least one comparison across all analyses (original submission and reanalyses) associated with this dataset.

A protein is differentially abundant if its change in abundance across conditions is found to be statistically significant with an adjusted p-value <= 0.05 and lists no issues associated with statistical tests for differential abundance.

Distinct protein accessions are counted across all files submitted in the "Statistical Analysis of Quantified Analytes" category having a "Protein" column in this dataset.

"N/A" means no results of this type were submitted.
This dataset may not contain all raw spectra data as originally deposited in PRIDE. It has been imported to MassIVE for reanalysis purposes, so its spectra data here may consist solely of processed peak lists suitable for reanalysis with most software.
