Enhancing Extracellular Polysaccharide Production under Nitrate Condition through the Silencing of the Transcription Factor AreA in Ganoderma lucidum

ABSTRACT: Fungal polysaccharides are not only important components of cell walls but also important for their applications in food and medicine. Nitrogen is crucial for physiological functions of fungi. However, studies on how nitrogen affect polysaccharides biosynthesis are relatively scarce. In this study, transcriptomic profiles of strains cultured with ammonium or nitrate as the nitrogen source were examined, respevtively, and their comparative analysis resulted in the enrichment of polysaccharide synthesis pathway. Further studies revealed that ammonium nitrogen promotes the extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) synthesis, whereas nitrate enhances the intracellular polysaccharides (IPS) synthesis. Subsequently, the function of AreA, an important nitrogen metabolism transcription factor, on polysaccharides synthesis was studied. Under nitrate condition, compared to the wild-type (WT), the content of EPS increased by approximately 33%, while the content of IPS, chitin, and ?-1,3-glucan in the areA-silenced strain was significantly reduced by 24%, 20%, and 20%-25%, respectively. Changes in content of chitin and ?-1,3-glucan affect the structure and integrity of the cell wall. Compared to ammonium condition, under nitrate condition, the cell wall thinned by approximately 23% following areA silencing, and sensitivity to cell wall perturbing agents increased by approximately 20%-30%. In summary, this study elucidates the impact of nitrogen sources on the polysaccharides synthesis, offering valuable insights into strategies for enhancing polysaccharide content in G. lucidum

Nitrate and starvation dependent transcription in Aspergillus nidulans

Project description:Nitrogen metabolism in Aspergillus nidulans is subject to regulation by the GATA transcription factor AreA which is required for the utilization of a wide range of nitrogen sources other than glutamine or ammonium. The level of AreA activity is regulated by intracellular glutamine levels that vary in response to nitrogen supplementation. For nitrate assimilation, which involves two transporters (CrnA, CrnB), nitrate reductase (NiaD) and nitrite reductase (NiiA), the respective genes are subject to regulation at the level of transcription, including nitrogen metabolite repression mediated by AreA and induction mediated by nitrite or nitrate, mediated by a second transcription factor, NirA. Both transcription factors act synergistically to regulate the expression of all four structural genes when nitrogen is limiting or either nitrate or nitrite is available. In this study we dissect the nitrogen limitation effect mediated by AreA form the nitrate/nitrite specific effect mediated by NirA on the transcriptome level.

Transcriptional profiles of Haloferax mediterranei based on nitrogen availability

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Haloferax mediterranei in three culture media with different nitrogen sources: a) cells were grown stationary and exponentially on ammonium, b) cells were grown exponentially on nitrate, and c) cells were shifted to nitrogen starvation conditions. The main differences in the transcriptional profiles have been identified between the cultures with ammonium as nitrogen source and the cultures with nitrate or nitrogen starvation, supporting previous results which indicate the absence of ammonium as the factor causing the expression of genes involved in nitrate assimilation pathway.

Differences in Shewanella algae C6G3 transcriptomes according to nature of electron acceptor (MnIV/NO3)

Project description:Shewanella algae C6G3 can conduct dissimilative nitrate reduction into ammonium and MnIV reduction. This bacteria have the unusual ability to produce anaerobically nitrite from ammonium in the presence of MnIV. This property may explain NO2/3- accumulation observed in some anaerobic zones of marine sediments. To gain insight into their metabolic capabilities, global mRNA expression patterns were investigated by RNA-seq and qRT-PCR in cells growing with lactate and ammonium as carbon and nitrogen sources and with MnIV or nitrate as electron acceptors. Genes exhibiting higher expression levels in the presence of MnIV belonged to functional categories of carbohydrate, coenzyme, lipid metabolisms and inorganic ion transport. Furthermore, comparative transcriptomic pattern between MnIV and NO3 revealed that the strain presented an ammonium limitation status with MnIV, despite the presence of identical and non-limiting concentration of ammonium in both culture conditions. Regulators ntrB/nrtC, ammonium channel, nitrogen regulatory protein P-II, glutamine synthetase and asparagine synthetase glutamine dependent genes were over-expressed. In nitrate condition, genes involved in synthesis of several amino acids were over expressed. Among the genes associated with the stress response, Kat E was highly expressed particularly under manganese condition

Comparison of root transcriptomes in Arabidopsis thaliana plants supplied with different forms of inorganic nitrogen

Project description:Plants aquire nitrogen from the soil, most commonly in the form of either nitrate or ammonium. Unlike ammonium, nitrate must be reduced (with NADH and ferredoxin as electron donors) prior to assimilation. Thus, nitrate nutrition imposes a substantially greater energetic cost than ammonium nutrition. Our goal was to compare the transcriptomes of nitrate-supplied and ammonium-supplied plants, with a particular interest in characterizing the differences in redox metabolism elicited by different forms of inorganic nitrogen. We used microarrays to compare the short-term transcriptional response to either nitrogen supply or ammonium supply in Arabidopsis roots. Genes upregulated or downregulated by nitrate only, ammonium only, or both ammonium and nitrate were identified and analyzed. Arabidopsis thaliana (Col-0) plants were grown hydroponically until they reached growth stage 5.10. They were then transferred to a nitrogen-free medium for 26 hr and then supplied with 1 mM nitrate or 1 mM ammonium. RNA isolation (and subsequent microarray analysis) was performed on root tissue isolated just before nitrogen supply (time 0) and at 1.5 hr and 8 hr after nitrogen supply (1.5 hr nitrate, 8 hr nitrate, 1.5 hr ammonium, 8 hr ammonium).

Effect of overexpression of a nitrate-inducible GARP-type transcriptional repressor NIGT1 in rice

Project description:Nitrogen is the most important macronutrient in plants and its supply induces responses in gene expression, metabolism and developmental processes. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the nitrogen responses remain poorly understood. Here we show that the supply of nitrate but not ammonium immediately induces the expression of a transcriptional repressor gene in rice, designated NIGT1 (Nitrate-Inducible, GARP-type Transcriptional Repressor 1). The results of DNA-binding site selection experiments and electrophoretic mobility shift assays indicated that NIGT1 binds to DNA containing either of two consensus sequences, GAATC and GAATATTC. In transient reporter assays, NIGT1 was found to repress transcription from the promoters containing the identified NIGT1-binding sequences in vivo. Furthermore, NIGT1 repressed the activity of its own promoter, suggesting an auto-repression mechanism. Consistently, nitrate-induced NIGT1 expression was found to be downregulated after a transient peak during nitrate treatment, and the nitrate-induced expression of NIGT1 decreased in transgenic rice plants in which this gene was constitutively overexpressed. Furthermore, the chlorophyll content that could be a marker of nitrogen utilization was found to be decreased in NIGT1 overexpressors of rice grown with nitrate medium but not with ammonium medium. Thus, we propose NIGT1 as a nitrate-inducible and auto-repressible transcriptional repressor that may play a role in the nitrogen response in rice. Taken together with the fact that the NIGT1-binding sites are conserved in promoter sequences of Arabidopsis NIGT1 homologs, our findings imply the presence of a time-dependent complex system for nitrate-responsive transcriptional regulation that is conserved in both monocots and dicots.

Nitrate and ammonium affect the overall maize response to nitrogen availability by triggering specific and common transcriptional signatures in root

Project description:Nitrogen (N) is an essential macronutrient for crops. Plants developed several responses to N fluctuations, thus optimizing the root architecture in response to N availability. Nitrate and ammonium are the main N inorganic forms taken up by plants and act as both nutrients and signals, affecting gene expression and plant development. In this study, RNA-sequencing was applied to gain comprehensive information on the pathways underlying the response of maize root, pre-treated in an N-deprived solution, to the provision of nitrate or ammonium. To assess the physiological response to these nutrients the shoot and root growth, the leaf pigment content and the amino acid amount in root and shoot were assessed. The analysis of the transcriptome shows that nitrate and ammonium regulate overlapping and distinct pathways, thus leading to different responses. NH4+ activates the response to stress, while NO3- acts as a negative regulator of transmembrane transport. Both the N-source repress genes related to the cytoskeleton and reactive oxygen species detoxification. Moreover, the presence of ammonium induces the accumulation of anthocyanins, while reduces biomass and chlorophyll and flavonoids accumulation. The profiles observed for hydrolysed and free amino acids highlighted common and distinct features in response to the two nitrogen forms.

Transcriptome Kuenenia stuttgartiensis bioreactor

Project description:Anaerobic ammonium-oxidising (anammox) bacteria, members of the ‘Candidatus Brocadiaceae’ family, play an important role in the nitrogen cycle and are estimated to be responsible for about half of the oceanic nitrogen loss to the atmosphere. Anammox bacteria combine ammonium with nitrite and produce dinitrogen gas via the intermediates nitric oxide and hydrazine (anammox reaction) while nitrate is formed as a by-product. These reactions take place in a specialized, membrane-bound compartment called the anammoxosome. Therefore, the substrates ammonium, nitrite and product nitrate have to cross the outer-, cytoplasmic- and anammoxosome membranes to enter or exit the anammoxosome. The genomes of all anammox species harbour multiple copies of ammonium-, nitrite- and nitrate transporter genes. Here we investigated how the distinct genes for ammonium-, nitrite- and nitrate- transport were expressed during substrate limitation in membrane bioreactors. Transcriptome analysis of Kuenenia stuttgartiensis planktonic cells under ammonium-limitation showed that three of the seven ammonium transporter genes and one of the six nitrite transporter genes were significantly upregulated, while another ammonium and nitrite transporter gene were downregulated in nitrite limited growth conditions. The two nitrate transporters were expressed to similar levels in both conditions. In addition, genes encoding enzymes involved in the anammox reaction were differentially expressed, with those using nitrite as a substrate being upregulated under nitrite limited growth and those using ammonium as a substrate being upregulated during ammonium limitation. Taken together, these results give a first insight in the potential role of the multiple nutrient transporters in regulating transport of substrates and products in and out of the compartmentalized anammox cell.

Dissecting the rice genes responsible for long time changes of nitrogen supply forms and nitrogen starvation

Project description:In comparison with provision of either ammonium or nitrate alone, simultaneously supplying both forms of N results in superior growth and yield for the majority of plants including rice. Using a rice 22K oligo-array, we performed transcriptome analysis to identify genes of rice (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica) responsive to change of N-supply forms and N-starvation. Using the supply of ammonium nitrate (one to one molar ratio) as control, the total number of root genes that were equal or more than two fold up- or down- regulated was 445, 324, and 781 by upon supply of either ammonium or nitrate or continuous N starvation, respectively for 96 h. In the shoot the equivalent numbers were much smaller only 32, 58, and 165, respectively. Clustering of the rice genes associated with different environmental stresses revealed substantial organ specificity of the root and shoot to N starvation, and also to the N supply form. Genes encoding transporters for ammonium and nitrate, nitrate reductase, glutamate dehydrogenase, and aspartate amino transferase, showed great response to change of the N supply form, especially to N starvation. Some of the genes involved in chlorophyll metabolism, carbon fixation and assimilation, were enhanced by ammonium supply only, but significantly suppressed by N-starvation. In the shoot there was increased expression of more general stress genes under nitrate when compared to ammonium nutrition. In the root the reverse situation was true with more apparent stress under ammonium nutrition. The microarray approach has revealed new levels of complexity in the response of rice to the form of N supply.

Adaptive responses of Trichlorobacter lovleyi to nitrite detoxification reveal overlooked contributions of Geobacterales to nitrate ammonification

Project description:Poorly understood microorganisms "short-circuit" the nitrogen cycle via the dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium to retain the element in agricultural lands and stimulate crop productivity. The prevalence of Geobacterales closely related to Trichlorobacter lovleyi in nitrate ammonification hotspots motivated us to investigate adaptive responses contributing to ammonification rates in the laboratory type strain T. lovleyi SZ. Here we describe the identification of tightly regulated pathways for efficient nitrate foraging and respiration with acetate, an important intermediate of organic matter degradation that Geobacterales efficiently assimilate and oxidize. Challenging the established dogma that high carbon/nitrate ratios stimulate the reduction of nitrate to ammonium, T. lovleyi doubled rapidly across a wide range of ratios provided nitrate concentrations were low enough to prevent the accumulation of the toxic nitrite intermediate. Yet, excess electrons during hydrogenotrophic growth alleviated nitrite toxicity and stimulated the reduction of nitrate to ammonium even under conditions of severe acetate limitation. These findings underscore the importance of nitrite toxicity in the ammonification of nitrate by Geobacterales and provide much needed mechanistic understanding of microbial adaptations contributing to soil nitrogen conservation. This information is critical to enhance the predictive value of genomic-based traits in environmental surveys and to guide strategies for sustainable management of nitrogen fertilization as well as mitigation of green-house emissions and agrochemical leaching from agricultural lands.
