Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans strain CB1190 during growth on THF or succinate

ABSTRACT: Analysis of gene expression in Pseudonocardia dioxanivorans strain CB1190 during growth on THF (tetradhydrofuran) or succinate, and re-analysis of GSE33197 published expression data. Two new treatments, based on carbon/energy source used for growth: THF and succinate. Three previously published treatments (pyruvate, dioxane, and glycolate) from GEO Series GSE33197 were also reanalyzed. Triplicate microarrays (biological replicates) were prepared for each treatment. Gene expression changes were compared directly between the new treatments (THF vs. succinate) and to previously published data during growth on pyruvate (GEO accession numbers GSM821862-GSM821864) in order to yield THF vs. pyruvate and succinate vs. pyruvate contrasts. Included as part of the re-analysis of GSE33197 were data from dioxane and glycolate treatments (GSM821865-GSM821870). The complete dataset representing: (1) the THF- and succinate-treated CB1190 Samples and (2) the pyruvate-, dioxane- and glycolate-treated CB1190 Samples from Series GSE33197 (re-processed using RMA), is linked below as a supplementary file (GSE48814_complete_data.txt).

Project description:Malic enzymes decarboxylate the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediate malate to the glycolytic end-product pyruvate and are well positioned to regulate metabolic flux in central carbon metabolism. The bacterium Sinorhizobium meliloti has a NAD(P)-malic enzyme (DME) and a NADP-malic enzyme (TME) and DME is required for symbiotic N2-fixation. To help understand the role of these enzymes, we examined growth, metabolic and transcriptional consequences resulting from the deletion of these enzymes. Few effects were observed upon growth with glucose, whereas growth with the gluconeogenic substrate, succinate, resulted in transcriptional and metabolic effects particularly in the dme mutant strains. When grown with succinate, DME mutant cells accumulated hexose sugar phosphates and trehalose, while TME mutants accumulated putrescine. Succinate-grown DME mutant cells also showed increased transcription of genes for gluconeogenesis and for pathways such as amino acid and fatty acid synthesis that divert metabolites away from the TCA cycle. These data suggested that, DME is required to regulate the levels of TCA cycle intermediates and that the activity of TME is insufficient to prevent the accumulation of TCA cycle intermediates in cells utilizing succinate as carbon source. Consistent with this, in short-1-3 hour incubations with succinate, dme mutant cells excreted large amounts of malate whereas little malate was excreted from tme or wild-type cells. These results support the suggestion that DME is required for N2-fixation in alfalfa because it is required for synthesis of pyruvate and acetyl-CoA and the rapid metabolism of C4-dicarboxylates supplied by the plant. RNA expression was measured for S. meliloti in exponential phase grown in MOPS (morpholinpropanesulfonic acid) buffered minimal media under 2 growth conditions: 1) 15 mM succinate, 2) 15 mM glucose; using wild type cells as well as dme and tme mutant strains (6 experiments, 2 replicates: total 12 samples)
