Biomarker Response of Aerobic Methanotrophs to Methane Oxidation Rates and Short-Term Methane and Oxygen Limitation

Project description:Methanotrophs, which help regulate atmospheric levels of methane, are active in diverse natural and man-made environments. This range of habitats and the feast-famine cycles seen by many environmental methanotrophs suggest that methanotrophs dynamically mediate rates of methane oxidation. Global methane budgets require ways to account for this variability in time and space. Functional gene biomarker transcripts are increasingly being studied to inform the dynamics of diverse biogeochemical cycles. Previously, per-cell transcript levels of the methane oxidation biomarker, pmoA, were found to vary quantitatively with respect to methane oxidation rates in model aerobic methanotroph, Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b. In the present study, these trends were explored for two additional aerobic methanotroph pure cultures, Methylocystis parvus OBBP and Methylomicrobium album BG8. At steady-state conditions, per cell pmoA mRNA transcript levels strongly correlated with per cell methane oxidation across the three methanotrophs across many orders of magnitude of activity (R2 = 0.91). Additionally, genome-wide expression data (RNA-seq) were used to explore transcriptomic responses of steady state M. album BG8 cultures to short-term CH4 and O2 limitation. These limitations induced regulation of genes involved in central carbon metabolism (including carbon storage), cell motility, and stress response.

MmoD regulates soluble methane monooxygenase and methanobactin production in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b

Project description:Methane oxidation by aerobic methanotrophs is well-known to be strongly regulated by the availability of copper, i.e., the “copper-switch”. That is, there are two forms of the methane monooxygenase: a cytoplasmic or soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) and a membrane-bound or particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO). sMMO is only expressed and active in the absence of copper, while pMMO requires copper. Previous work has also shown that one gene in the operon of the soluble methane monooxygenase – mmoD – also plays a critical role, but its function is still vague. Herein we show that MmoD is not needed for expression of genes in the sMMO gene cluster but is critical for formation of sMMO polypeptides and sMMO activity in Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b, indicating that MmoD plays a key post-transcriptional role in maturation of sMMO. Further, data also show that MmoD controls expression of methanobactin, a unique copper-binding compound used by some methanotrophs for copper collection. Collectively these results provide greater insights into the components of the “copper-switch” and thus provide new strategies to manipulate methanotrophic activity.

A laboratory-based model ecosystem reveals genetic determinants of methanotroph phenotypic heterogeneity in a methane-oxygen counter gradient

Project description:Connecting genes to phenotypic traits in bacteria is often challenging because of a lack of environmental cues in laboratory settings. However, laboratory-based model ecosystems offer a means to better account for natural conditions compared to standard planktonic cultures, aiding in the linking of genotypes and phenotypes. Here, we present a simple, cost-effective, laboratory-based model ecosystem to study aerobic methane-oxidizing bacteria (methanotrophs). This system, referred to as the gradient syringe, is made by inoculating bacteria into semi-solid agarose held within a disposable syringe. Empty space at one end of the syringe is flushed with methane gas, while the other end is open to the atmosphere through a sterile filter. We show this system replicates the methane-oxygen counter gradient typically found in the natural soil environment of methanotrophs. Culturing the methanotroph Methylomonas sp. strain LW13 in this system produced a distinct horizontal band at the intersection of the counter gradient, which we discovered was due not to increased cell growth at this location but instead to an increased amount of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). We also discovered that different methanotrophic taxa formed EPS bands with distinct locations and morphologies when grown in the methane-oxygen counter gradient. By comparing transcriptomic data from LW13 growing within and surrounding this EPS band, we identified genes implicated in cell growth and EPS formation within the gradient syringe, and validated the involvement of these genes with knockout strains. This work highlights the use of a laboratory-based model ecosystem that more closely mimics the natural environment to uncover methanotroph phenotypes missing from standard planktonic cultures, and link these phenotypes their genetic determinants.
