M.ruminantium B.proteoclasticus coculture vs monocultures

ABSTRACT: This study was undertaken with two major goals in mind: i) To investigate the potential for interspecies hydrogen transfer between a hemicellulytic rumen bacterium (B. proteoclasticus) and a methanogenic achaea (M. ruminantium) Microscopic examination had previously shown B. proteoclasticus in co-culture with M. ruminantium rapidly formed cell to cell co-aggregates. ii) To examine the expression of genes involved in methanogenesis under more rumen-like conditions.

Project description:Hong2004 - Genome-scale metabolic network of Mannheimia succiniciproducens (iSH335) This model is described in the article: The genome sequence of the capnophilic rumen bacterium Mannheimia succiniciproducens. Hong SH, Kim JS, Lee SY, In YH, Choi SS, Rih JK, Kim CH, Jeong H, Hur CG, Kim JJ. Nat. Biotechnol. 2004 Oct; 22(10): 1275-1281 Abstract: The rumen represents the first section of a ruminant animal's stomach, where feed is collected and mixed with microorganisms for initial digestion. The major gas produced in the rumen is CO(2) (65.5 mol%), yet the metabolic characteristics of capnophilic (CO(2)-loving) microorganisms are not well understood. Here we report the 2,314,078 base pair genome sequence of Mannheimia succiniciproducens MBEL55E, a recently isolated capnophilic Gram-negative bacterium from bovine rumen, and analyze its genome contents and metabolic characteristics. The metabolism of M. succiniciproducens was found to be well adapted to the oxygen-free rumen by using fumarate as a major electron acceptor. Genome-scale metabolic flux analysis indicated that CO(2) is important for the carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate to oxaloacetate, which is converted to succinic acid by the reductive tricarboxylic acid cycle and menaquinone systems. This characteristic metabolism allows highly efficient production of succinic acid, an important four-carbon industrial chemical.
