Pyomelanin from Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica reduces biofouling.

Project description:Members of the marine bacterial genus Pseudoalteromonas are efficient producers of antifouling agents that exert inhibitory effects on the settlement of invertebrate larvae. The production of pigmented secondary metabolites by Pseudoalteromonas has been suggested to play a role in surface colonization. However, the physiological characteristics of the pigments produced by Pseudoalteromonas remain largely unknown. In this study, we identified and characterized a genetic variant that hyperproduces a dark-brown pigment and was generated during Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica biofilm formation. Through whole-genome resequencing combined with targeted gene deletion and complementation, we found that a point mutation within the hmgA gene, which encodes homogentisate 1,2-dioxygenase, is solely responsible for the overproduction of the dark-brown pigment pyomelanin. In P. lipolytica, inactivation of the hmgA gene led to the formation of extracellular pyomelanin and greatly reduced larval settlement and metamorphosis of the mussel Mytilus coruscus. Additionally, the extracted pyomelanin from the hmgA deletion mutant and the in vitro-synthesized pyomelanin also reduced larval settlement and metamorphosis of M. coruscus, suggesting that extracellular pyomelanin released from marine Pseudoalteromonas biofilm can inhibit the settlement of fouling organisms.

Characterization of self-generated variants in Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica biofilm with increased antifouling activities.

Project description:Pseudoalteromonas is widespread in various marine environments, and most strains can affect invertebrate larval settlement and metamorphosis by forming biofilms. However, the impact and the molecular basis of population diversification occurring in Pseudoalteromonas biofilms are poorly understood. Here, we show that morphological diversification is prevalent in Pseudoalteromonas species during biofilm formation. Two types of genetic variants, wrinkled (frequency of 12±5%) and translucent (frequency of 5±3%), were found in Pseudoalteromonas lipolytica biofilms. The inducing activities of biofilms formed by the two variants on larval settlement and metamorphosis of the mussel Mytilus coruscus were significantly decreased, suggesting strong antifouling activities. Using whole-genome re-sequencing combined with genetic manipulation, two genes were identified to be responsible for the morphology alternations. A nonsense mutation in AT00_08765 led to a wrinkled morphology due to the overproduction of cellulose, whereas a point mutation in AT00_17125 led to a translucent morphology via a reduction in capsular polysaccharide production. Taken together, the results suggest that the microbial behavior on larval settlement and metamorphosis in marine environment could be affected by the self-generated variants generated during the formation of marine biofilms, thereby rendering potential application in biocontrol of marine biofouling.

Isolation and Characterisation of the Agarolytic Bacterium Pseudoalteromonas Ruthenica.

Project description:Agar is a polysaccharide that primarily constitutes the cell wall of red algae. It is a good source of carbon and energy for many microbes. In the present study, an agarolytic bacterium, UQAD-3, was obtained from the waters of Al-Uqair, the Arabian Gulf, Al-Ahsaa, Saudi Arabia. UQAD-3 exhibited agarolytic activity when grown on agar as the sole source of carbon and energy. The strain was identified as Pseudoalteromonas ruthenica based on comparative analysis of the 16S rRNA, with 99.6% similarity. This finding was further confirmed by phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences, which highlighted that UQAD-3 was assembled within the Pseudoalteromonas clade and constituted a monophyletic subcluster with P. ruthenica, KMM 300T. The strain was further characterised biochemically using the Biolog Gen III microtest system. UQAD-3 showed positive reactions to 16 (17%) of the 94 diverse traits assessed. Good growth was reported in 10% NaCl indicating its moderate halophilic nature. These observations indicate the agarolytic potential of the strain and opens new horizons for industrial applications in the future.

Algicidal effects of a novel marine pseudoalteromonas isolate (class Proteobacteria, gamma subdivision) on harmful algal bloom species of the genera Chattonella, Gymnodinium, and Heterosigma.

Project description:During a bacterial survey of the Huon Estuary in southern Tasmania, Australia, we isolated a yellow-pigmented Pseudoalteromonas strain (class Proteobacteria, gamma subdivision), designated strain Y, that had potent algicidal effects on harmful algal bloom species. This organism was identified by 16S rRNA sequencing as a strain with close affinities to Pseudoalteromonas peptidysin. This bacterium caused rapid cell lysis and death (within 3 h) of gymnodinoids (including Gymnodinium catenatum) and raphidophytes (Chattonella marina and Heterosigma akashiwo). It caused ecdysis of armored dinoflagellates (e.g., Alexandrium catenella, Alexandrium minutum, and Prorocentrum mexicanum), but the algal cultures then recovered over the subsequent 24 h. Strain Y had no effect on a cryptomonad (Chroomonas sp.), a diatom (Skeletonema sp.), a cyanobacterium (Oscillatoria sp.), and two aplastidic protozoans. The algicidal principle of strain Y was excreted into the seawater medium and lost its efficacy after heating. Another common bacterial species, Pseudoalteromonas carrageenovora, was isolated at the same time and did not have these algicidal effects. The minimum concentrations of strain Y required to kill G. catenatum were higher than the mean concentrations found in nature under nonbloom conditions. However, the new bacterium showed a chemotactic, swarming behavior that resulted in localized high concentrations around target organisms. These observations imply that certain bacteria could play an important role in regulating the onset and development of harmful algal blooms.

Reference assembly and gene expression analysis of Apostichopus japonicus larval development.

Project description:The transcriptome of the holothurian Apostichopus japonicus was sequenced at four developmental stages-blastula, gastrula, auricularia, pentactula-on an Illumina sequencer. Based on our RNA-seq data and the paired-end reads from 16 libraries obtained by other researchers earlier, we have achieved the currently most complete transcriptome assembly for A. japonicus with the best basic statistical parameters. An analysis of the obtained transcriptome has revealed 174 differentially expressed transcription factors, as well as stage-specific transcription factors that are most promising for further study. In addition, a total of 1,174,999 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphisms have been identified, including 58,932 indels. A GO enrichment analysis of contigs containing polymorphic loci shows the predominance of GO terms associated with immune response. The data obtained by us provide an additional basis for a deeper study of the mechanisms of the planktotrophic-type development in holothurians and can be used in commercial sea cucumber breeding programs.

Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase of Vibrio splendidus is involved in adhesion to Apostichopus japonicus.

Project description:Vibrio splendidus is one of the most opportunistic marine pathogens and infects many important marine animals, including the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. In this study, two genes named DLD1 and DLD2, encoding dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) homologues in pathogenic V. splendidus, were cloned, and conditionally expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The enzymatic activities of DLD1 and DLD2 showed that they both belonged to the NADH oxidase family. Both DLD1 and DLD2 were located on the outer membrane of V. splendidus as detected by whole-cell ELISA. To study the adhesion function of DLD1 and DLD2, polyclonal antibodies were prepared, and antibody block assay was performed to detect the normal function of the two proteins. DLD1 and DLD2 were determined to play important roles in adhesion to different matrices and the adhesive ability of V. splendidus reduced more than 50% when DLD1 or DLD2 was defective.
