In principle, tandem mass spectrometry can be used to detect and quantify the peptides present in a microbiome sample, enabling functional and taxonomic insight into microbiome metabolic activity. However, the phylogenetic diversity constituting a particular microbiome is often unknown, and many of the organisms present may not have assembled genomes. In ocean microbiome samples, with particularly diverse and uncultured bacterial communities, it is difficult to construct protein databases that c ...[more]

Project description:This project aims to investigate the metabolic pathways expressed by the active microbial community occurring at the deep continental subsurface. Subsurface chemoLithoautotrophic Microbial Ecosystems (SLiMEs) under oligotrophic conditions are supported by H2; however, the overall ecological trophic structures of these communities are poorly understood. Some deep, fluid-filled fractures in the Witwatersrand Basin, South Africa appear to support inverted trophic pyramids wherein methanogens contributing <5% of the total DNA apparently produce CH4 that supports the rest of the community. Here we show the active metabolic relationships of one such trophic structure by combining metatranscriptomic assemblies, metaproteomic and stable isotopic data, and thermodynamic modeling. Four autotrophic β-proteobacteria genera that are capable of oxidizing sulfur by denitrification dominate. They co-occur with sulfate reducers, anaerobic methane oxidizers and methanogens, which each comprises <5% of the total community. Defining trophic levels of microbial chemolithoautotrophs by the number of transfers from the initial abiotic H2-driven CO2 fixation, we propose a top-down cascade influence of the metabolic consumers that enhances the fitness of the metabolic producers to explain the inverted biomass pyramid of a multitrophic SLiME. Symbiotic partnerships are pivotal in the deep biosphere on and potentially beyond the Earth.

Project description:Proteomics on B. thuringiensis CT_43 cells in GYS medium. Two biological replicate cell samples were collected at time points of 7 h, 9 h, 13 h and 22 h, respectively. The crude proteins were purified using the ReadyPrep 2-D Cleanup Kit, underwent the reductive alkylation, tryptically digested, and were labeled with 8-plex iTRAQ reagents as follows: 7 h-1, 113; 7 h-2, 114; 9 h-1, 115; 9 h-2, 116; 13 h-1, 117; 13 h-2, 118; 22 h-1, 119; and 22 h-2, 121. The labeled samples were pooled and resolved into 12 fractions, which were loaded onto LC-MSMS.

Project description:Elucidating the role of gut microbiota in physiological and pathological processes has recently emerged as a key research aim in life sciences. In this respect, metaproteomics (the study of the whole protein complement of a microbial community) can provide a unique contribution by revealing which functions are actually being expressed by specific microbial taxa. However, its wide application to gut microbiota research has been hindered by challenges in data analysis, especially related to the choice of the proper sequence databases for protein identification. Here we present a systematic investigation of variables concerning database construction and annotation, and evaluate their impact on human and mouse gut metaproteomic results. We found that both publicly available and experimental metagenomic databases lead to the identification of unique peptide assortments, suggesting parallel database searches as a mean to gain more complete information. Taxonomic and functional results were revealed to be strongly database-dependent, especially when dealing with mouse samples. As a striking example, in mouse the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio varied up to 10-fold depending on the database used. Finally, we provide recommendations regarding metagenomic sequence processing aimed at maximizing gut metaproteome characterization, and contribute to identify an optimized pipeline for metaproteomic data analysis.

Project description:Cross species comparison of genomes and transcriptomes is a powerful tool for understanding underlying biological processes, accurate functional classification of genes, and discovery of novel elements. The shift to next-generation sequencing platforms has tremendously accelerated the analysis of genomes and transcriptomes. The use of this technology for transcriptome analysis has many advantages over hybridization based technologies, including higher sensitivity and specificity, and eliminates the need for probe design. Using Illumina sequencing of mRNAs, we have captured the global transcriptional profiles of the developmental cycles of D. discoideum and D. purpureum. The morphology and transcriptional profiles in these two species have been largely conserved even after greater than 300 million years of divergence. We also captured the transcriptional profiles of prespore and prestalk cells from both species. The RNA-seq results correlate well with previously known markers and reveal many new transcripts with unique developmental regulation and cell type enrichment. Our analysis provides the first complete picture of the transcriptional landscape in both D. discoideum and D. purpureum. Transcriptional abundance of over 13,900 genome elements from seven time points of development, and prespore/prestalk cell types will be available through a graphical, highly-interactive, explorative web interface at: http://www.ailab.si/dictyexpress , which currently displays all of our published microarray data. Sequence coverage at a single nucleotide resolution will also be available through an interactive genome browser. These data, from morphology to genome to transcriptome, provide a global picture of the developmental cycles of D. discoideum and D. purpureum and will facilitate the functional classification of genes, as well as discovery of novel genes, splice variants, regulatory elements and non-coding RNAs. Keywords: Transcriptome Analysis Examination of 7 developmental time points in two cell types with 2 biological replicates for each sample.

Project description:During its life cycle Leishmania undergoes extreme environmental changes, alternating between insect vectors and vertebrate hosts. In mammals the parasites replicate within parasitophorous vacuoles of macrophages, compartments that contain low concentrations of iron. Here we show that stimulation of iron transport, which is induced in Leishmania amazonensis by an iron-poor environment, triggers the differentiation of avirulent promastigotes into virulent amastigotes. Iron depletion from the culture medium triggered expression of the LIT1 ferrous iron transporter, growth arrest, and differentiation of wild type promastigotes into infective amastigotes. In contrast, LIT1 null promastigotes showed continued exponential growth in iron-poor media, followed by massive cell death. Iron depletion from the medium and LIT1 upregulation increased iron superoxide dismutase activity (FeSOD) in wild type, but not in LIT1 null parasites. Notably, the superoxide-generating drug menadione or H2O2 were sufficient to trigger differentiation of wild type promastigotes into fully infective amastigotes. On the other hand, LIT1 null promastigotes accumulated superoxide radical and initiated amastigote differentiation after exposure to H2O2, but not to menadione. Our results reveal a novel role for FeSOD activity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in orchestrating the differentiation of Leishmania infective stages, in a process regulated by iron availability. Four samples were obtained in total from wild-type L. amazonensis promastigotes grown for 24 hours in culture. Two of these samples derived from medium with iron and two from mediam without iron.These two samples derived from each culture served as biological replicates.

Project description:Phytoplankton blooms represent hotspots of primary production and lead to the formation of particulate organic matter composed of living and dead algal cells. These particles are characterized by steep chemical gradients, for instance in oxygen concentration, that provide diverse ecological niches for specifically adapted microbes to thrive. Particulate fractions were collected at almost daily intervals between early March and late May in 2018. Amplicon sequencing and Meta-omics was used to asses microbial community composition and functionality at different time points.

Project description:Environmental meta-omics is rapidly expanding as sequencing capabilities improve, computing technologies become more accessible, and associated costs are reduced. The in situ snapshots of marine microbial life afforded by these data provide a growing knowledge of the functional roles of communities in ecosystem processes. Metaproteomics allows for the characterization of the dynamic proteome of a complex microbial community. It has the potential to reveal impacts of microbial metabolism on biogeochemical transport, storage and cycling (for example, Hawley et al., 2014), while additionally clarifying which taxonomic groups perform these roles. Previous work illuminated many of the important functions and interactions within marine microbial communities (for example, Morris et al., 2010), but a review of ocean metaproteomics literature revealed little standardization in bioinformatics pipelines for detecting peptides and inferring and annotating proteins. As prevalence of these data sets grows, there is a critical need to develop standardized approaches for mass spectrometry (MS) proteomic spectrum identification and annotation to maximize the scientific value of the data obtained. Here, we demonstrate that bioinformatics decisions made throughout the peptide identification process are as important for data interpretation as choices of sampling protocol and bacterial community manipulation experimental design. Our analysis offers a best practices guide for environmental metaproteomics.
