Metabolomic profiling of Burkholderia cenocepacia in synthetic cystic fibrosis sputum medium reveals nutrient environment-specific production of virulence factors
Abstract Infections by Burkholderia cenocepacia lead to life-threatening disease in immunocompromised individuals, including those living with cystic fibrosis (CF). While genetic variation in various B. cenocepacia strains has been reported, it remains unclear how the chemical environment of CF lung...

Herein, C13-acyl-homoserine lactone, a quorum sensing signal previously not known to be produced by B. cenocepacia as well as pyochelin-type siderophores were exclusively detected during growth in SCFM2 in the presence of trimethoprim. The comparative metabolomics approach described in this study provides insight into environment-dependent production of secondary metabolites by B. cenocepacia strains and suggests future work which could identify personalized strain-specific regulatory mechanisms involved in production of secondary metabolites.
