Mutations in GlnA, NifA and NifK enabling photosynthetic growth of Rhodobacter sphaeroides in the absence of CO2 fixation

ABSTRACT: Previously isolated spontaneous mutants of Rhodobacter sphaeroides, which were initially compromised in their ability to assimilate carbon dioxide through the reductive pentose phosphate pathway, were found to exhibit abnormal nitrogenase gene regulation as well as altered patterns of nitrogenase enzymatic activity. The genomes of these strains were studied by whole genome pyrosequencing and whole genome microarray analysis to identify possible loci responsible for the observed phenotypes.

Not just an alternative nitrogenase: The Fe-nitrogenase system belongs to the NifA regulon in Rhodobacter capsulatus

Project description:The diazotrophic bacterium Rhodobacter capsulatus synthesizes a molybdenum nitrogenase and an alternative iron-only nitrogenase, enabling growth with molecular dinitrogen as sole nitrogen source. Regulation of nitrogen fixation was analyzed by proteome profiling of wild-type and mutant strains lacking the transcriptional regulators NifA, AnfA, and MopAB.

PpsR regulon in Rhodobacter sphaeroides

Project description:mRNA levels were measured in Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 at 20% O2 and 0.5% O2, Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 App11 (AppA-null), Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 (pPNs) and PpsR mutant PPS2-4. The mRNA samples were prepared from cultures supplied with 20% O2, 1% CO2, and 79% N2, and grown in the dark to an OD of 0.18. The mRNA levels for each strain was measured three times.

Two distinct ferredoxins are essential for nitrogen fixation by the iron nitrogenase in Rhodobacter capsulatus

Project description:Nitrogenases are the only enzymes able to ‘fix’ gaseous nitrogen into bioavailable ammonia and, hence, are essential for sustaining life. Catalysis by nitrogenases requires both a large amount of ATP and electrons donated by strongly reducing ferredoxins or flavodoxins. Our knowledge about the mechanisms of electron transfer to nitrogenase enzymes is limited, with electron transport to the iron (Fe)-nitrogenase having hardly been investigated. Here, we characterised the electron transfer pathway to the Fe-nitrogenase in Rhodobacter capsulatus via proteome analyses, genetic deletions, complementation studies and phylogenetics. Proteome analyses revealed an upregulation of four ferredoxins under nitrogen-fixing conditions reliant on the Fe-nitrogenase in a molybdenum nitrogenase knockout strain (nifD), compared to non-nitrogen-fixing conditions. Based on these findings, R. capsulatus strains with deletions of ferredoxin (fdx) and flavodoxin (fld, nifF) genes were constructed to investigate their roles in nitrogen fixation by the Fe-nitrogenase. R. capsulatus deletion strains were characterised by monitoring diazotrophic growth and nitrogenase activity in vivo. Only deletion of fdxC or fdxN resulted in slower growth and reduced Fe-nitrogenase activity, whereas the double-deletion of both fdxC and fdxN abolished diazotrophic growth. Differences in the proteomes of ∆fdxC and ∆fdxN strains, in conjunction with differing plasmid complementation behaviours of fdxC and fdxN, indicate that the two Fds likely possess different roles and functions. These findings will guide future engineering of the electron transport systems to nitrogenase enzymes, with the aim of increased electron flux and product formation.

Expression data from H2-producing Rhodobacter sphaeroides cultures fed different organic substrates

Project description:Rhodobacter sphaeroides produces hydrogen gas (H2) via its nitrogenase enzyme during photoheterotrophic growth under nitrogen-limited conditions. We find that cells produce different amounts of H2 and show different growth rates, depending on the organic substrate provided (lactate, succinate, glucose, xylose, or glycerol). We used global transcript analyses to determine what genes are involved in the onset of H2 production, and those that lead to different H2 production capacities in cells fed different organic substrates. Growth and real-time H2 production were followed for photoheterotrophically grown Rhodobacter sphaeroides cultures (19 mL test tube cultures) fed one of five different organic substrates (lactate, succinate, glucose, xylose, or glycerol) and provided glutamate as the sole nitrogen source. Cells were harvested for RNA extraction during early post-exponential growth, at points near the maximum H2 production rates of the cultures. Non-H2-producing cells (500 mL cultures) fed succinate and provided NH4+ as nitrogen source were also harvested for RNA extraction as reference samples. At least two samples for every given set of conditions were analyzed.

FnrL regulon in Rhodobacter sphaeroides

Project description:In this study, we performed a ChIP-chip experiment to determine the regulon of FnrL in Rhodobacter sphaeroides. We grew R. sphaeroides under anaerobic photosnthetic conditions, in which FnrL is expected to bind DNA and contol gene expression, and immuno-precipitated FnrL, but also sigma70 and the Beta' subunits of RNA polymerase to determine transcription activity.

RpoE regulon in Rhodobacter sphaeroides

Project description:In Rhodobacter sphaeroides a transcriptional response to the reactive oxygen species singlet oxygen is controlled by the group IV sigma factor RpoE and the anti-sigma factor ChrR. In this study, we integrated various large datasets to identify genes within the singlet oxygen stress response that contain RpoE-dependent promoters within R. sphaeroides. Transcript pattern clustering and a RpoE-binding sequence model were used to predict candidate promoters that respond to singlet oxygen stress in R. sphaeroides. These candidate promoters were experimentally validated to nine R. sphaeroides RpoE-dependent promoters that control the transcription of 15 genes activated by singlet oxygen.
