Project description:The aim of this study was to identify TBBPA-degrading organisms in a complex microbial community by a metagenome-based functional metaproteomic approach, using protein-based stable isotope probing (protein-SIP). Firstly, the degradation kinetics were evaluated in order to simulate the decrease of residual mass of the labelled compound based on experimental data. In sequence, a metagenome was generated, and biomass was collected in different time-points for protein-SIP in incubations with 13C-TBBPA. This approach allowed for the identification organisms assimilating labelled carbon from the cometabolic degradation of a micropollutant.

Project description:Methylomicrobium buryatense 5GB1 is an obligate methylotroph, which grows on methane or methanol with similar growth rates. Core metabolic pathways are similar on both substrates, but recent studies of methane metabolism suggest that growth on methanol might have significant differences from growth on methane. In this study, both a targeted metabolomics approach as well as a 13C tracer approach have been taken to understand core carbon metabolism in M. buryatense 5GB1 during methanol growth, to determine whether such differences occur. Targeted metabolomics analyses were performed on both methane and methanol cultures to identify metabolic nodes with altered fluxes. Several key metabolites showed significant differences in pool size. Noticeably, 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) showed much larger pools under methanol culture, suggesting the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway was more active. Intermediates in other parts of metabolism also showed differences in pool sizes under methanol growth. A systematic shift of active core metabolism is proposed to explain the changes. In order to distinguish flux partition differences at the C3-C4 node, 13C tracer analysis was also applied to methanol-grown cultures. Using the experimental results as constraints, we applied flux balance analysis to determine the metabolic flux phenotype of M. buryatense 5GB1 growing on methanol. The resulting new insights into core metabolism of this methanotroph provide an improved basis for future strain design.
