Anammox enrichment culture glycoproteomics

ABSTRACT: The physiology of the planctomycetal anammox bacteria makes them particularly special because they share features with all three domains of life. Anammox bacteria have been reported recently to produce surface-layer proteins, which represent the outermost layer and provide structure, shape and protection under extreme conditions. Furthermore, we report on the unique cell surface-layer glycosylation of the anammox bacterium Ca. Kuenenia stuttgartiensis as revealed by a newly established glycoproteomics approach. This approach enables untargeted exploration of prokaryotic protein glycosylation from (high-resolution) shotgun proteomics data directly.

The enormous chemical diversity and strain variability of prokaryotic protein glycosylation makes their large-scale exploration exceptionally challenging. Therefore, despite the universal relevance of protein glycosylation across all domains of life, the understanding of their biological significance and the evolutionary forces shaping oligosaccharide structures remains highly limited. Here, we report on a newly established mass binning glycoproteomics approach that establishes the chemical iden ...[more]

Project description:The community composition (in terms of abundance, distribution and contribution of diverse clades) of bacteria involved in nitrogen transformations in the oxygen minimum zones may be related to the rates of fixed N loss in these systems. The abundance of both denirifying and anammox bacteria, and the assemblage composition of denitrifying bacteria were investigated in the Eastern Tropical South Pacific and the Arabian Sea using assays based on molecular markers for the two groups of bacteria. The abundance and distribution of bacteria associated with the fixed N removal processes denitrification and anammox were investigated using quantitative PCR for genes encoding nitrite reductase (nirK and nirS) in denitrifying bacteria and hydrazine oxidase(hzo) and 16S rRNA genesin anammox bacteria. All of these genes had depth distributions with maxima associated with the secondary nitrite maximum in low oxygen waters. NirS was mch more abundant than nirK, and much more abundant than the 16S rRNA gene from anammox bacteria. The ratio of hzo:16S rRNA for anammox was low and variable implying greater unexplored diversity in the the hzo gene. Assemblage composition of the abundant nirS-type denitrifiers was evaluated using a funcitonal gene microarray. Of the nirS archetypes represented on the microarray, very few occurred speficically in one region or depth interval, but the assemblages varied significantly. Community composition of denitrifiers based on microarray analysis of the nirS gene was most different between geographical regions. Within each region, the surface layer and OMZ assemblages clustered distinctly. Thus, in addition to spatial and temporal variation in denitrificaiton and anammox rates, both microbial abundance and community composition also vary between OMZ regions and depths. Two color array (Cy3 and Cy5): the universal standard 20-mer oligo is printed to the slide with a 70-mer oligo (an archetype). Environmental DNA sequences (fluoresced with Cy3) within 15% of the 70-mer conjugated to a 20-mer oligo (fluoresced with Cy5) complementary to the universal standard will bind to the oligo probes on the array. Signal is the ratio of Cy3 to Cy5. Three replicate probes were printed for each archetype. Two replicate arrays were run on duplicate targets.

Project description:The continuing ‘desire’ in obtaining more quantitative and detailed information from cellular proteomics experiments in regards to proteome coverage and protein modifications asks for a systematic investigation of the protein extraction and digestion protocols, in particular when working with unicellular organisms with a strong cell wall such as the model yeast S. cerevisiae. The selection of a suitable sample preparation workflow is crucial to obtain in-depth proteome coverage, as the use of certain sample preparation protocols may bias the protein identification or induce (unexpected) peptide modifications. Here, we made an extensive comparison of preparation workflows commonly applied to S. cerevisiae. Workflows were compared on the basis of identified MS/MS spectra, peptide sequences and number and type of modifications using both restricted (Peaks) and unrestricted (TagGraph) database search approaches. The proteome coverage was mainly affected by the sample collection approach, while it was maximized using a FASP. Extensive reagent specific peptide modifications were detected when using formic acid, but also when using acetone. Such artefacts split the analyte mass signals and generate additional chemical noise that may also elute differently compared to the native peptide. The use of both an unrestricted and restricted database search increased identification rates significantly and resulted in the identification of approximately 70% of the MS2 spectra for the best protocol. The unidentified spectra were assessed by their de novo sequencing score. This confirmed that those spectra consisted by a majority of very low quality spectra, insufficient to match to database sequences. However, a small fraction of the unidentified spectra showed high quality, which presumably derive from unknown sequence variants not present in the database. This study demonstrates the high importance of the sample preparation workflow and the obtained results will guide researchers in the field to optimize sample preparation procedures.
