Phosphorus deficiency alleviates cyanobacterial iron-limitation through a direct PhoB_x0002_ mediated gene regulation

ABSTRACT: Iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) are essential nutrients with close geochemical association. They exist at low concentrations in surface waters and may be co-limiting resources for phytoplankton growth. However, the adaptive strategies of photosynthetic organisms to Fe/P co-limitation remain largely unknown. Here, we show that phosphorus deficiency increases the growth of Fe-limited cyanobacteria through a PhoB-mediated regulatory network. In addition to its well-recognized role in controlling phosphate homeostasis, PhoB regulates key metabolic processes crucial for Fe-limited cyanobacteria, including ROS detoxification and Fe uptake. Transcript abundances of PhoB-targeted genes are enriched in samples from the P-deplete ocean, and a conserved PhoB binding site is widely present in the promoters of the targets, suggesting that the strategy we discovered may be highly conserved. Our findings provide important molecular insights into the response of cyanobacteria to simultaneous Fe/P nutrient limitation and help in understanding how nutrient availability affects primary productivity in aquatic environments.

Trichodesmium LC-MSMS iron and phosphorous co-limitation in the ocean

Project description:Nitrogen fixation by cyanobacteria supplies critical bioavailable nitrogen to marine ecosystems worldwide; however, field and lab data have demonstrated it to be limited by iron, phosphorus and/or CO2. To address unknown future interactions among these factors, we grew the nitrogen-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium for 1 year under Fe/P co-limitation following 7 years of both low and high CO2 selection. Fe/P co-limited cell lines demonstrated a complex cellular response including increased growth rates, broad proteome restructuring and cell size reductions relative to steady-state growth limited by either Fe or P alone. Fe/P co-limitation increased abundance of a protein containing a conserved domain previously implicated in cell size regulation, suggesting a similar role in Trichodesmium. Increased CO2 further induced nutrient-limited proteome shifts in widespread core metabolisms. Our results thus suggest that N2-fixing microbes may be significantly impacted by interactions between elevated CO2 and nutrient limitation, with broad implications for global biogeochemical cycles in the future ocean.

Phosphorus-Ca2+ signalling in marine diatoms

Project description:Phosphorus is a critical nutrient controlling phytoplankton growth. Availability of this limiting factor can vary significantly in space and time, particularly in dynamic aquatic ecosystems. Diatoms are important eukaryotic phytoplankton that thrive in regions of pulsed phosphate supply, yet little is known of the sensory mechanisms enabling them to detect and rapidly respond to phosphorus availability. Here we show that phosphorus-starved diatoms utilise a novel Ca2+-dependent signalling pathway to sense and regulate cellular recovery following phosphorus resupply. This pathway, which has not previously been described in eukaryotes, is sensitive to sub-micromolar concentrations of phosphate, alongside a range of environmentally relevant phosphorus forms. Using comparative proteomics, we have characterised early adaptations governing diatom cellular recovery from phosphorus limitation. Strikingly, the dominant response was substantial enhancement of nitrogen assimilation proteins. This led to 12-fold increases in absolute nitrate uptake rates, relative to phosphorus-starved cells. Moreover, we find that the novel phosphorus-Ca2+ signalling pathway controls this primary recovery response. Our findings highlight that fundamental cross-talk between the essential nutrients phosphorus and nitrogen drive diatom recovery from phosphorus limitation. Moreover, a novel Ca2+-dependent phosphorus signalling pathway governs such ecological acclimation responses, and is thus likely critical to the success of diatoms in regions of episodic nutrient supply.

Project description:Like many microalgae unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii also accumulates energy rich storage lipid and starch under nutrient-limited conditions, such as phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) limitation. To dissect the transcriptional regulation of lipid and starch biosynthesis in response to nutrient limitation, we have characterized the biological role of a candidate regulator: the MYB family transcription factor, PSR1 (phosphorus starvation response 1). Genetically modified (psr1 compromised) and wild-type lines were grown under P limiting and sufficient conditions and assayed at two time points by SOLiD RNA-seq.

Transcriptomic response induced by iron limitation in the cyanobacteria Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 (BMB04)

Project description:In this study, we characterized the homeostasis of the marine cyanobacteria Synechococcus sp. PCC7002 (BMB04) growing in chemically characterized synthetic seawater with three different levels of iron limitation representative of the modern ocean. Using transcriptomic approach, we identified the sequence of physiological responses to increasing Fe limitation. Our results showed an increase in the number of dysregulated genes and in the complexity of the response to increasing Fe limitation. Genes involved in photosynthesis were strongly down-regulated under MiFeL, while membrane transporters were up-regulated. Genes involved in regulation of energy metabolism responded under strong Fe limitation, while fine metabolic regulation of co-factors expression and activation of specific cellular mechanisms to minimize oxidative stress were only observed under severe Fe limitation. Additionally, our results demonstrate the limitations in the construct of the bioreporter BMB04 that hamper its application in areas of the ocean strongly Fe limited.

RNA-protein dynamics of high CO2-adapted, iron-phosphorus co-limited Trichodesmium reveals nutrient-limited molecular architecture of a globally significant marine nitrogen fixer in a future ocean

Project description:Our paper presents the results of a study in which we used Illumina RNA-Seq (i.e. transcriptomics) and high-CO2 nutrient limitation experiments to examine transcriptional variation of iron-limited, phosphorus-limited, and iron-phosphorus co-limited cultures following long-term (~7 years) low- (380 µatm CO2) and high-CO2 (750 µatm CO2) selection. Hence, we describe the molecular physiology of the globally-significant, biogeochemically-critical marine cyanobacterium Trichodesmium.

Systems and trans-system level analysis identifies conserved Fe-deficiency responses in the plant lineage

Project description:We used RNA-Seq to compare the transcriptomes of Fe-replete vs. Fe-deficient vs. Fe-limited Chlamydomonas wild-type cells. Our RNA-Seq data revealed 90 and 49 genes to be specifically expressed under hetero-phototrophic and phototrophic conditions, respectively. Around 30 genes represent putative Fe-deficiency targets, independent of the carbon source used. Many of these Fe-specific responses are conserved between Chlamydomonas and land plants. We identified several transporters (NRAMP4, a CCC1-like proteins and a ferroportin homologue) all of them most likely being involved in intracellular Fe redistribution. RNA-seq of Chlamydomonas Fe-deficient and limited cells indicated that about 40% of differentially expressed genes represent proteins of unknown functions. Whereas Fe-deficiency gave us insides into putative Fe-specific responses, Fe-limitation revealed responses related to increased oxidative stress. Quantitative proteomics on the soluble Chlamydomonas extracts indicated a fair correlation between changes we detected at mRNA levels compared to changes in protein levels in Fe-deficient and Fe-limited Chlamydomonas. We found that Fe-deficient and Fe-limited cells have increased ascorbate levels, a major antioxidant molecule in plants. Ascorbate levels appear to be elevated by de novo synthesis via the L-Galactose pathway and recycling by monodehydroascorbate reductase. Fe-limited cells showed increased transcript and protein levels of enzymatic antioxidant components of the ascorbate-glutathione scavenging system (MSD3, MDAR1 or GSH1). Fe-limited cells showed the increase of several proteases indicative of elevated proteolitic activity under these severe nutrient limitation conditions.

Transcriptomic profiling of an oceanic diatom adapted to Cu deficiency

Project description:Enhanced vertical stratification brought about by warming of the ocean surface is expected to reduce vertical circulation and nutrient input with knock-on effects for phytoplankton. Increased nutrient limitation is one predicted outcome, but the response of phytoplankton is uncertain because long-term adaptation to nutrient limitation has not been studied. We used Cu as a model catalytic nutrient to explore the adaptive response of an oceanic diatom to continuous nutrient deprivation. Thalassiosira oceanica was maintained under Cu-limiting and sufficient conditions for more than 2000 generations and the evolved populations evaluated for physiological traits in a reciprocal transplant experiment. Adaptation to low Cu concentration increased Cu use efficiency, so that under Cu-limiting conditions T. oceanica maintained significantly faster rates of net C assimilation and growth than the control and ancestral populations.

Transcriptome analysis of iron and phosphorus interaction in rice seedlings

Project description:The antagonistic interaction between iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P) has been noted in the area of plant nutrition. To understand the physiology and molecular mechanisms of this interaction, we studied the growth performance, nutrient concentration, and gene expression profiles of root and shoot segments derived from 10-d-old rice (Oryza sativa) seedlings under four different nutrient conditions: (1) full strength of Fe and P (+Fe+P); (2) full strength of P and no Fe (-Fe+P); (3) full strength of Fe and no P (+Fe-P); and (4) without both Fe and P (-Fe-P). We used Affymetrix genechip to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying different Fe and P supply conditions identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes.
