Project description:Hydroxy-L-proline (L-Hyp) mainly exists in animal collagens through post-translational modification on peptidyl proline. Utilization of L-Hyp as carbon and nitrogen sources in bacteria including P. aeruginosa requires conversion of L-Hyp to D-Hyp followed by the D-Hyp dehydrogenase pathway. However, the molecular mechanism in control of L-Hyp catabolism and transport at the genetic level was not clear. We performed a detailed transcriptome profile analysis of P. aeruginosa in response to L-Hyp and D-Hyp with an emphasis in catabolism and regulation, which revealed the presence of twelve genes in two adjacent loci that were induced by exogenous L-Hyp and D-Hyp. The first locus includes lhpABFE encoding a Hyp epimerase (LhpA) and D-Hyp dehydrogenase (LhpBEF), while the second locus covers genes for a putative ABC transporter (LhpPMNO), a protein of unknown function (LhpH), Hyp/Pro racemase (LhpK), and two enzymes in L-Hyp catabolism (LhpC and LhpG). In addition, proximal to these two loci, lhpR encodes a transcriptional regulator of the AraC family. We conducted four independent microarray experiments in the presence (experimental) of L-Hyp or D-Hyp. P. aeruginosa PAO1 was grown aerobically in minimal medium P with 300 rpm shaking at 37°C, in the presence of L-glutamate with the addition of L-Hyp or D-Hyp at 5 mM.

Project description:Hydroxyproline in decaying organic matter and root exudates and is a source of carbon and nitrogen to soil-dwelling microorganisms. A bacterial pathway for hydroxyproline catabolism was elucidated over 30 years ago however genes and gene function relationships were not established. In that pathway, trans-4-hydroxy-L-proline (4-L-Hyp) is epimerized to cis-4-hydroxy-D-proline (4-D-Hyp), and then, in three enzymatic reactions, the D-diastereomer is converted via 1-pyrroline-4-hydroxy-2-carboxylate and alpha-ketoglutaric semialdehyde to alpha-ketoglutaric acid. Here we report on the regulation and functions of several genes from a hydroxyproline catabolism locus on the pSymB megaplasmid of the legume endosymbiont Sinorhizobium meliloti. The hydroxyproline catabolism genes (hyp) are negatively regulated by hypR and are organized as four single transcripts (hypR, hypD, hypS and hypH) and a 9 gene transcript (hypMNPQ(RE)XYZ). Transcription of these genes was induced in the presence of either 4-L-Hyp and 4-D-Hyp, and was not subject to nitrogen source regulation. The hypRE gene is shown to encode 4-hydroxyproline 2-epimerase (HypRE) responsible for the reversible isomerization of 4-L-Hyp and 4-D-Hyp, whereas a hypRE mutant grew with 4-D-Hyp but not of 4-L-Hyp as carbon source. hypO, hypD and hypH are predicted to encode the 4-D-Hyp oxidase, the 1-pyrroline-4-hydroxy-2-carboxylate deaminase and alpha-ketoglutaric semialdehyde dehydrogenase respectively. No epimerase activity was detected for the HypY (Smb20270), a predicted racemase, and activities from four other genes (designated hypS, hypX and hypZ) remain to be determined. In summary, the 4-hydroxyproline (4-Hyp) catabolic pathway for S. meliloti is similar to that previously elucidated for Pseudomonas however the presence of additional genes at the hyp locus suggests that additional metabolic steps still remain to be elucidated.

Project description:D-Glutamate (D-Glu), an essential component of peptidoglycans, can be utilized as carbon and nitrogen source by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. DNA microarrays were employed to identify genes involved in D-Glu catabolism. Through gene knockout and growth phenotype analysis, the divergent dguR-dguABC (D-glutamate utilization) gene cluster was shown to participate in D-Glu catabolism and regulation. The dguA gene encodes a FAD-dependent D-amino acid dehydrogenase with D-Glu as its preferred substrate, and its promoter was specifically induced by exogenous D-Glu and D-Gln. The function of DguR as transcriptional activator of the dguABC operon was demonstrated by promoter activity measurements in vivo and by mobility shift assays with purified His-tagged DguR in vitro. Although the DNA-binding activity of DguR did not require D-Glu, the presence of D-Glu in the binding reaction was found to stabilize a preferred nucleoprotein complex. The dguB gene encodes a putative enamine/imine deaminase of the RidA family, but its role in D-Glu catabolism remained to be determined. While a lesion in dguC encoding a periplasmic solute binding protein did not affect growth on D-Glu, the AatJMQP transporter for acidic amino acid uptake was found essential for D-Glu and L-Glu utilization. Expression of this uptake system was subjected to induction by exogenous DL-Glu, most likely via the AauSR two-component system. In summary, DguA was identified in this study as a new member of the FAD-dependent amino acid dehydrogenase family for D-amino acid catabolism. DguR serves as a D-Glu sensor and transcriptional activator of the dguA promoter. Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was chosen as model to study gene response with different D-amino acids.

Project description:Polyamines (putrescine, spermidine, and spermine) are major organic polycations essential for a wide spectrum of cellular processes. The cells require mechanisms to maintain homeostasis of intracellular polyamines to prevent otherwise severe adverse effects. We performed a detailed transcriptome profile analysis of P. aeruginosa in response to agmatine and putrescine with an emphasis in polyamine catabolism. Agmatine serves as precursor compound for putrescine (and hence spermidine and spermine), which was proposed to convert into GABA and succinate before entering the TCA cycle in support of cell growth as the sole source of carbon and nitrogen. Two acetylpolyamine amidohydrolases, AphA and AphB, were identified to be involved in the conversion of agmatine into putrescine. Enzymatic products of AphA were confirmed by mass spectrometry analysis. Interestingly, the alanine-pyruvate cycle was shown indispensable for polyamine utilization. The newly identified dadRAX locus, encoding the regulator, alanine transaminase and racemase respectively, coupled with SpuC, the major putrescine-pyruvate transaminase, were key components to maintain alanine homeostasis. Corresponding mutant strains were severely hampered in polyamine utilization. On the other hand, the alternative gamma-glutamylation pathway for the conversion of putrescine into GABA was also discussed. Subsequently, GabD, GabT and PA5313 were identified for GABA utilization. Growth defect of PA5313 gabT double mutant in GABA suggested the importance of these two transaminases. The succinic-semialdehyde dehydrogenase activity of GabD and its induction by GABA was also demonstrated in vitro. Polyamine utilization in general was proven independent of the PhoPQ two-component system even the expression of which was induced by polyamines. Multiple potent catabolic pathways as depicted in this study could serve pivotal roles in control of intracellular polyamine levels. Keywords: Metabolism, polyamines, agmatine, putrescine, glutamate, phoPQ.

Experiment Overall Design: P. aeruginosa PAO1 was grown aerobically in minimal medium P with 350 rpm shaking at 37C, in the presence of L-glutamate alone or with the addition of putrescine, agmatine or GABA at 20 mM. Cells were harvested when the optical density at 600 nm reached 0.5~0.6 by centrifugation for 5 minutes at 4C. Total RNA samples were isolated by RNeasy purification kit following instructions of the manufacturer (Qiagen). Reverse transcription for cDNA synthesis, fragmentation by DNase I treatment, cDNA probe labeling and hybridization were performed according to the instructions of GeneChip manufacturer (Affymetrix). Data were processed by Microarray Suite 5.0 software normalizing the absolute expression signal values of all chips to a target intensity of 500. GeneSpring software (Silicon Genetics) was used for expression pattern analysis and comparison. Only genes showing consistent expression profiles in duplicates were selected for further analysis.

Project description:Burkholderia thailandensis is a soil-dwelling bacterium that shares many metabolic pathways with the ecologically similar, but evolutionarily distant, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Among the diverse nutrients it can utilize is choline, which can be converted into the osmoprotectant glycine betaine and further catabolized as a source of carbon and nitrogen, similar to P. aeruginosa. Orthologs of genes in the choline catabolic pathway in these two bacteria showed distinct differences in gene arrangement as well as an additional orthologous transcriptional regulator in B. thailandensis. In this study, we showed that multiple glutamine amidotransferase1 (GATase1)-containing AraC-family transcription regulators (GATRs) are involved in regulation of the B. thailandensis choline catabolic pathway (gbdR1, gbdR2, souR). Using genetic analyses and sequencing the transcriptome in the presence and absence of choline, we identified the likely regulons of gbdR1 (BTH_II1869) and gbdR2 (BTH_II0968). We also identified a functional ortholog for P. aeruginosa souR, a GATR that regulates the metabolism of sarcosine to glycine. GbdR1 is absolutely required for expression of the choline catabolic locus, similar to P. aeruginosa GbdR, while GbdR2 is important to increase expression of the catabolic locus. Additionally, the B. thailandensis SouR ortholog (BTH_II0994) is required for catabolism of choline and its metabolites as carbon sources, whereas in P. aeruginosa, SouR function can by bypassed by GbdR. The strategy employed by B. thailandensis represents a distinct regulatory solution to control choline catabolism and thus provides both an evolutionary counterpoint and an experimental system to compare the acquisition and regulation of this pathway during environmental growth and infection.

Project description:Ethylene glycol (EG) is a widely used industrial chemical with manifold applications and is also generated in the degradation of plastics such as PET. Rhodococcus jostii RHA1 (RHA1), a potential biocatalytic chassis, grows on EG. Transcriptomic analyses revealed four clusters of genes potentially involved in EG catabolism: the mad locus, predicted to encode mycofactocin-dependent alcohol degradation, including the catabolism of EG to glycolate; two GCL clusters, predicted to encode glycolate and glyoxylate catabolism; and the mft genes, predicted to specify mycofactocin biosynthesis. Bioinformatic analyses further revealed that the mad and mft genes are widely distributed in mycolic acid-producing bacteria such as RHA1. Neither ΔmadA nor ΔmftC RHA1 mutant strains grew on EG but grew on acetate. In resting cell assays, the ΔmadA mutant depleted glycolaldehyde but not EG from culture media. These results indicate that madA encodes a mycofactocin-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase that initiates EG catabolism. In contrast to some mycobacterial strains, the mad genes did not appear to enable RHA1 to grow on methanol as sole substrate. Finally, a strain of RHA1 adapted to grow ~3× faster on EG contained an overexpressed gene, aldA2, predicted to encode an aldehyde dehydrogenase. When incubated with EG, this strain accumulated lower concentrations of glycolaldehyde than RHA1. Moreover, ecotopically expressed aldA2 increased RHA1’s tolerance for EG further suggesting that glycolaldehyde accumulation limits growth of RHA1 on EG. Overall, this study provides insights into the bacterial catabolism of small alcohols and aldehydes and facilitates the engineering of Rhodococcus for the upgrading of plastic waste streams.
