Project description:We compared global transcriptional patterns in Pyrobaculum aerophilum cultures with oxygen, nitrate, arsenate and ferric iron as respiratory electron acceptors to identify genes and regulatory patterns that differentiate these pathways. Keywords: Time course study with different respiratory electron acceptors To focus the microarrays on genes that are specifically affected by changes in terminal electron acceptors we analyzed gene expression in time courses with cultures shifted from aerobic growth to either NO3-, As(V), Fe(III)-citrate, or additional O2. Gene expression and substrate usage were measured at three time points (2.5, 4.5, and 7.5 hours), allowing sufficient time for changes in gene expression, while restricting cultures to a maximum of one or two cell divisions.

Project description:The Geobacter species evolved respiratory versatility to utilize a wide range of terminal electron acceptors. To explore this adaptive mechanism, Fe(III) citrate, hydrous ferric oxide, and fumarate were selected as electron acceptors, and the methylome and metabolome of Geobacter sulfurreducens PCA grown on each electron acceptor were investigated via third-generation, single-molecule real-time DNA sequencing.Results showed that the patterns of 4-methylcytosine (m4C) and 6-methyladenine (m6A) modification were all varied in different electron acceptor cultures. Moreover, genes (e.g., GSU0466 and GSU1467) with low expression levels generally had high methylation levels. These findings suggest that m4C and m6A modifications play a role in the adaption of G. sulfurreducens to diverse electron acceptors, and DNA methylation may be involved in the adaption mainly via gene expression regulation.

Project description:Desulfitobacterium hafniense DCB-2, a halo-respirer and versatile inorganic ion reducer, grows in hazardous waste contaminated environments. M-BM- Gene expression changes were determined when the strain was grown in the presence of high concentrations of Fe(+3), Se(+6), U(+6), or NO3(-) as alternative electron acceptors. (Thesis by Christina L. Harzman at Michigan State University, 2009) RNA was used to directly compare gene expression in control samples of pyruvate fermentation (20 mM) to fermentation in the presence inorganic electron acceptors or respiration-inducing conditions. M-BM- The inorganic electron acceptors added to media for fermentation were 1 mM selenate or 0.5 mM uranyl acetate. The respiration-inducing conditions were 50 mM ferric citrate (20 mM lactate carbon source) or 10 mM nitrate (20 mM lactate carbon source). Microarray hybridizations were performed with a dye swap and 3 biological replicates for a total of 6 slides per condition for comparison.

Project description:Bioavailability of electron acceptors is probably the most limiting factor in the restoration of anoxic, contaminated environments. The oxidation of contaminants such as aromatic hydrocarbons, particularly in aquifers, often depends on the reduction of ferric iron or sulphate. We have previously detected a highly active fringe zone beneath a toluene plume at a tar-oil contaminated aquifer in Germany, where a specialized community of contaminant degraders co-dominated by Desulfobulbaceae and Geobacteraceae had established. Although on-site geochemistry links degradation to sulphidogenic processes, dominating catabolic (benzylsuccinate synthase alpha-subunit, bssA) genes detected in situ appeared more related to those of Geobacter spp. Therefore, a stable isotope probing (SIP) incubation of sediment samples with 13C7-toluene and comparative electron acceptor amendment was performed. We introduce pyrosequencing of templates from SIP microcosms as a powerful new strategy in SIP gradient interpretation (Pyro-SIP). Our results reveal the central role of Desulfobulbaceae for sulphidogenic toluene degradation in situ, and affiliate the detected bssA genes to this lineage. This, and the absence of 13C-labelled DNA of Geobacter spp. in SIP gradients preclude their relevance as toluene degraders in situ. In contrast, Betaproteobacteria related to Georgfuchsia spp. became labelled under iron-reducing conditions. Furthermore, secondary toluene degraders belonging to the Peptococcaceae detected in both treatments suggest the possibility of functional redundancy amongst anaerobic toluene degraders on site. 2 samples examined from the different electron-acceptors (sulphate or ferric iron) incubates at the time point of maximal toluene degradation.

Project description:Hydrogen can be an important source of energy for chemolithotrophic acidophiles, especially in the deep terrestrial subsurface. Nevertheless, the current knowledge of microbial hydrogen utilization in acidic environments is minimal. A multi-omics analysis was applied on Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans growing aerobically and anaerobically (with ferric iron) on hydrogen as an electron donor, and a respiratory model proposed from the results obtained. In this model, both [NiFe] hydrogenases, cytoplasmic uptake and membrane-bound respiratory, oxidize molecular hydrogen to two protons and two electrons. The electrons are used to reduce membrane-soluble ubiquinone to ubiquinol. Genetically associated [FeS]-binding proteins mediate electron relay from the hydrogenases to the ubiquinone pool. Under aerobic conditions, reduced ubiquinol transfers electrons to either cytochrome aa3 oxidase via cytochrome bc1 complex and cytochrome c4 or the alternate directly to cytochrome bd oxidase, resulting in proton efflux together with the reduction of molecular oxygen to water. Under anaerobic conditions, reduced ubiquinol transfers electrons to outer membrane cytochrome c (ferric iron reductase) via cytochrome bc1 complex and a cascade of electron transporters (cytochrome c4, cytochrome c552, rusticyanin, and high potential iron-sulfur protein), resulting in proton efflux together with the reduction of ferric iron to ferrous iron. The proton gradient generated by molecular hydrogen oxidation maintains the membrane potential and allows the generation of ATP via ATP synthase and NADH via NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase. To a lesser extent, NADH can also be generated by another bidirectional cytoplasmic hydrogenase. ATP and NADH are further utilized in the Calvin–Benson–Bassham cycle for inorganic carbon uptake and assimilation. These results further clarify the role of extremophiles in biogeochemical processes and their impact on the composition and features of the deep terrestrial subsurface from the distant past to the present.

Project description:Two Near Isogenic soybean (Glycine max) lines were grown in hydroponic conditions with either 50uM ferric nitrate or 100uM ferric nitrate. After 10 days, half the plants were harvested (total root tissue). At 12 days after planting, iron was added to plants grown in low iron conditions bringing them up to sufficient iron growth conditions. Root tissue was harvested for the remaining plants at 14 days after planting. Gene expression analysis from root tissue of two Near Isogenic Lines (NILs), Clark (PI548553) and IsoClark (PI547430), grown in iron stress or iron stress recovered conditions.

Project description:Transcriptomic study of A. ferrooxidans was explored either during aerobic growth with sulfur as an electron source and oxygen as final electron acceptor or in anaerobic conditions with ferric iron as the final electron receptor. Differential RNA levels were related to changes in cellular functions that were used to develop a preliminary model for A. ferrooxidans electron transport during dissimilatory ferric iron reduction.

Project description:Melioribacter roseus is one of two cultured representatives of the phylum Ignavibacteriae. It could grow by fermentation of sugars and peptides, by aerobic respiration or by dissimilatory reduction of arsenate, nitrite or Fe(III) on fermentable and non-fermentable substrates, what allows this bacterium to adapt to fluctuating environmental conditions. Primary genome analysis highlighted key determinants of electron transport chains, providing important insights into the ability of M. roseus to use a range of electron acceptors. Complete set of genes for proton-translocating membrane complexes I and II, alternative complex III (ACIII) and seven terminal oxidoreductases was found in the M. roseus genome. Among those three different cytochrome oxidases and two different molybdopterin oxidoreductases have been proposed to determine two most active respiratory processes performed by M. roseus – aerobic respiration and dissimilatory arsenate reduction, respectively.
