S. cerevisiae natural isolate proteomics

ABSTRACT: Natural S. cerevisiae isolates were evaluated for tolerance to a complex mixture of lignocellulosic inhibitors. Two isolates, with intermediate and superior tolerance characteristics, were investigated to determine the proteomic changes required for tolerance to lignocellulosic inhibitors.

Strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae with improved tolerance to plant hydrolysates are of utmost importance for the cost-competitive production of value-added chemicals and fuels. However, engineering strategies are constrained by a lack of understanding of the yeast response to complex inhibitor mixtures. Natural S. cerevisiae isolates display niche-specific phenotypic and metabolic diversity, encoded in their DNA, which has evolved to overcome external stresses, utilise available resources and ...[more]

Project description:Damage to the mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) severely affects the cell and causes disease. Mutations to mtDNA also accumulate throughout the lifespan of many organisms and may be a proximal cause of aging. There is no effective treatment for ailments caused by mtDNA mutation. Since mitochondrial function and biogenesis are controlled by the nutrient environment of the cell, it is possible that perturbation of conserved, nutrient-sensing pathways may successfully treat mitochondrial disease. Experiments using the tractable eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae allow us to investigate the connection between nutrient-sensing and mitochondrial function. We have focused our current studies on the protein kinase A (PKA) pathway, which controls S. cerevisiae behavior according to glucose availability. We found that reduced PKA signaling can lead, in a background-dependent manner, to improved fitness after mtDNA loss. Specifically, over-expression of the cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase Pde2p, removal of PKA isoform Tpk3p, or ablation of other proteins promoting PKA activity leads to improved proliferation of cells deleted of the mitochondrial genome. Over-expression of Pde2p also suppresses the inviability of several mutants that normally cannot survive mtDNA loss. Moreover, Pde2p over-expression diminishes the nuclear transcriptional response to mtDNA damage, further supporting the idea that glucose sensation is harmful for cells lacking the mitochondrial genome. These findings are heavily dependent upon yeast genetic background. Interestingly, robust import of mitochondrial polytopic membrane proteins may be required in order for cells with no mtDNA to receive the full benefits of PKA reduction. Our findings support the idea that perturbation of nutrient-sensing pathways, and specifically the sensation of glucose, may benefit cells with dysfunctional mitochondria. Four experimental conditions were used: BY4743 (WT) cells containing empty pRS426 vector and containing mtDNA because EtBr was not used, BY4743 (WT) cells containing empty pRS426 vector and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide, BY4743 (WT) cells overexpressing TIP41 from plasmid pRS426 and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide, and BY4743 (WT) cells overexpressing PDE2 from plasmid pRS426 and lacking mtDNA after 24 hours of treatment with 25 µg/ml ethidium bromide. Two replicates were performed for each sample type.

Project description:Pseudomonas alloputida KT2440 (previously misclassified as P. putida KT2440 based on 16S rRNA gene homology) has emerged as an ideal host strain for plan t biomass valorization. However, P. alloputida KT2440 is unable to natively utilize abundant pentose sugars (e.g., xylose and arabinose) in hydrolysate streams, which may account for up to 25% of lignocellulosic biomass. In the last decades, microbes have been engineered to utilize the pentose sugars. However, most of the engineered strains were either slow-growing or displayed phenotypes that could not be replicated. In this work, we successfully isolated five Pseudomonas species with the native capability to utilize glucose, xylose and p-coumarate as a sole carbon source. These isolates were in two clusters; one set of isolates (M2 and M5) and the second set of isolates (BP6 and BP7) showed 85.6% and 96.2% ANI, respectively, to P. alloputida KT24440. BP8 showed 84.6% ANI to P. putida KT2440 and does not belong to any neighboring type strains indicating a new species. Notably, the isolates showed robust growth solely on xylose and higher growth rates (m, 0.36-0.49 h-1) when compared to only known xylose-utilizing Pseudomonas taiwanenesis VLB120 (m, 0.28 h-1) as a control. Unexpectedly, among five isolates, M2 and M5 grew solely on arabinose as well. Comprehensive analysis of genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics revealed the isolates utilize xylose and arabinose via Weimberg pathway (xylD-xylX-xylA) and oxidative pathway (araD-araX-araA), respectively. Furthermore, a preliminary result demonstrated the production of flaviolin solely on xylose and arabinose in the isolate, showing noteworthy potential to be an alternative host for lignocellulosic feedstocks into valuable products. This is the first report on isolating Pseudomonas strains natively capable of utilizing all of the major carbon sources in lignocellulosic biomass, and leading to higher consumption of available substrates and therefore maximizing the product yield.
