Project description:Among multiple interconnected pathways for L-Lysine (L-Lys) catabolism in pseudomonads, Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 employed the decarboxylase and the transaminase pathways. However, up till now several genes involved in the operation and regulation of these pathways were still missing. Transcriptome analyses coupled with promoter activity measurements and mutant growth phenotype analysis lead us to identify several new members of the L-Lys and D-Lys catabolic pathways and their regulatory elements, including argR to trigger lysine decarboxylation into cadaverine, PauR for the γ-glutamylation pathway of polyamine catabolism into 5-aminovalerate, gcdR-gcdHG for glutarate utilization, dpkA, amaR-amaAB and PA2035 for D-Lys catabolism, lysR-lysXE for L-Lys efflux, and lysP for L-Lys uptake. Gene expression microarray, including probe preparation, hybridization, fluidics run and chip scan, was performed by Georgia State University DNA/Protein Core Facility. P. aeruginosa PAO1 was grown aerobically in minimal medium P with 350 rpm shaking at 37C, in the presence of 10mM L-glutamate supplemented with 10 mM L-lysine, cadaverine, 5-amino valerate, glutaric acid, D-lysine or 5mM L-pipecolate. 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. Data collection was carried out using GCOS 1.4 software (Affymetrix). Probe intensity values were normalized to a target value of 500 with normalization factor equal to 1. Data analysis was performed using GeneSpring GX 11 Software (Aglient, Palo Alto,CA).

Project description:Lysine decarboxylases (Ldc) are widely distributed enzymes that catalyse the decarboxylation of L-lysine to form cadaverine, a natural polyamine playing a key role in a wide range of physiological process. The Gram-negative bacterium Francisella tularensis is the etiological agent of tularemia. A previous report showed that F. novicida transposon mutant with insertions in cadA (FTT0406) which encodes a putative lysine decarboxylase (herein designed as LdcF) was attenuated in mouse spleen. Here, to address the role of this protein, we compared the proteomes of bacterial strains expressing or not LdcF.

Project description:5-aminovalerate (5AVA), L-lysine derived compound, represents a potential building block for the production of the bio-plastic nylon-5. Escherichia coli has been engineered for the production of 5AVA, but Corynebacterium glutamicum has never been engineered for the production of 5AVA, but, a lot of work was done in the last decades to optimize the production of the precursor L-lysine and more recently cadaverine. 5AVA added to the growth medium hardly affected growth rate of C. glutamicum, since, a half-inhibitory concentration of 1.1 M 5AVA was determined. While in E. coli, 5AVA production was engineered by using the DavBA pathway from Pseudomonas putida, here a pathway based on the route described in P. aeruginosa was established. C. glutamicum wild type was converted into a 5AVA producing strain by heterologous expression of L-lysine decarboxylase (LdcC), putrescine transaminase (PatA) and γ-aminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase (PatD) genes from E. coli. 5AVA production was improved by using a strain previously engineered for high L-lysine production, by de-repressing phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PTS) and glycolysis and by avoiding formation of the by-product L-lactate. 5AVA accumulation by this strain was increased to 44.9 mM, representing a yield of 202 mmol mol-1 glucose, which is about three times higher than the highest yield achieved in E. coli for the production of 5AVA from glucose fermentation.

Project description:We used the RiboTag method to obtain macrophage-specific mRNA directly from injured spinal cord and performed RNA sequencing to investigate the translational profiles. Our data show that macrophages at 3 days after SCI are enriched in genes related to cell migration and cytokine signaling. However, at 7 days, lipid catabolism represents the main biological process, and we identify canonical nuclear receptor pathways as potential mediators of lipid catabolism in macrophages.

Project description:Herbaspirillum seropedicae are β-proteobacteria that establish as endophytes in various plants. They are able to consume diverse carbon sources, including hexoses and pentoses like D-xylose. D-xylose catabolism pathways have been described in some microorganisms, but databases of genes involved in these routes are limited. This is of special interest in biotechnology, considering that D-xylose is the second most abundant sugar in nature. Furthermore, it is found in some potential raw materials such as lignocellulosic biomass. In this work we present a study of D-xylose catabolism pathways in H. seropedicae strain Z69, using RNA-seq analysis and the subsequent study of phenotypes determined in targeted mutants in corresponding identified genes. G5B88_22805 gene, designated xylB, encodes a NAD+- dependent D-xylose dehydrogenase. Mutant Z69∆xylB was still able to grow on D-xylose, although at a reduced rate. This is due to expression of an L-arabinose dehydrogenase encoded by G5B88_05250 gene, and was thus able to use D-xylose as substrate. According to our results, H. seropedicae Z69 uses non-phosphorylative pathways to catabolize D-xylose. The lower portion of metabolism involves co-expression of two routes: Weimberg pathway that produces α-ketoglutarate and a novel pathway recently described that produces pyruvate and glycolate. This novel pathway seems to be essential since a mutant in the last step of this pathway, Z69∆G5B88_06410, was unable to grow on D‑xylose.

Project description:The dicarboxylic acid glutarate is gaining attention in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry as promising building-block. Synthesis of glutarate via microbial fermentation is a desirable aim which will allow the production of biopolymers avoiding fossil raw materials. Here, by rational metabolic engineering of the biofactory microorganism Corynebacterium glutamicum the fermentative production of glutarate from glucose was established. Modifications focused on increase glucose consumption and reduce by-products formation together with the heterologous overexpression of the L-lysine decarboxylase, putrescine transaminase and putrescine dehydrogenase genes from E. coli in the L-lysine producer GRLys1 allowed production the glutarate precursor 5-aminovalerate. Additional heterologous overexpression of 5-aminovalerate amino transferase and glutarate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase genes from C. glutamicum and three Pseudomonas species enabled glutarate synthesis from glucose. By coupling glutarate production with the glutamate synthesis of C. glutamicum glutarate titer improved 10%. The final strain was tested in a glucose-based fed-batch fermentation

Project description:Despite the importance of amino acids as basic components of proteins, amino acids also serve as substrates for multiple other metabolic pathways, such as the TCA cycle that regulates energy homeostasis. The response to deficiency in the biosynthesis of specific amino acids (also termed âamino acid starvationâ) has been studied extensively in yeast (See for example Petti et. al., 2011 Survival of starving yeast is correlated with oxidative stress response and non-respiratory mitochondria function. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 108: 1089-1098). In contrast, very little is known about the metabolic responses to deficiency in the biosynthesis of amino acids in plants. A number of recent reports have already shown that catabolism of amino acids can significantly contribute to cellular energy homeostasis particularly during the nighttime and particularly in response to stress. In the present manuscript we used a previously characterized Arabidopsis mutant with reduced expression of the Lys biosynthesis enzyme L,L-diaminopimelate aminotransferase (dapat) to investigate the physiological and metabolic impacts of deficient Lys biosynthesis. The results obtained demonstrate that not stomatal limitations but rather biochemical alterations are responsible for the decreased photosynthesis and growth of the dapat mutants which mimic stress conditions associated to Lys deficiency. Our findings suggest that manipulation of Lys biosynthesis in dapat mutant simulates a stress response culminating in a highly exquisite metabolic reprogramming such that alternative substrates support energy generation once carbohydrate metabolism is down-regulated.

Project description:In order to elucidate transcriptional and metabolic networks associated with Lys metabolism, we utilized developing seeds as a system in which Lys synthesis could be stimulated developmentally without application of chemicals and coupled this to a T-DNA insertion knockout mutation impaired in Lys catabolism. This seed-specific metabolic perturbation stimulated Lys accumulation starting from the initiation of storage reserve accumulation. Our results revealed that the response of seed metabolism to the inducible alteration of Lys metabolism was relatively minor, however, that which was observable operated in a modular manner. They also demonstrated that Lys metabolism is strongly associated with the operation of the TCA cycle, whilst largely disconnected from other metabolic networks. In contrast, the inducible alteration of Lys metabolism was strongly associated with gene networks, stimulating the expression of hundreds of genes controlling anabolic processes that are associated with plant performance and vigor, whilst suppressing a small number of genes associated with plant stress interactions. The most pronounced effect of the developmentally-inducible alteration of Lys metabolism was an induction of expression of a large set of genes encoding ribosomal proteins as well as genes encoding translation initiation and elongation factors, all of which are associated with protein synthesis. With respect to metabolic regulation, the inducible alteration of Lys metabolism was primarily associated with altered expression of genes belonging to networks of amino acids and sugar metabolism. The combined data are discussed within the context of network interactions both between and within metabolic and transcriptional control systems.
