Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) are proteinaceous prokaryotic organelles that enable the utilization of substrates such as 1,2-propanediol and ethanolamine. BMCs are mostly linked to the survival of particular pathogenic bacteria by providing a growth advantage through utilization of 1,2-propanediol and ethanolamine which are abundantly present in the human gut. Although a 1,2-propanediol utilization cluster was found in the probiotic bacterium <i>Propionibacterium freudenreichii</i>, BMC-med ...[more]

Project description:Self-assembly of proteins into complexes with defined stoichiometry and organization is fundamental to the structure and functionality of many molecular machines in biology. Some enteric bacteria including Salmonella have evolved the propanediol-utilizing microcompartment (Pdu MCP), a specialized proteinaceous organelle that is essential for 1,2-propanediol degradation and enteric pathogenesis. Pdu MCPs are a family of bacterial microcompartments that are self-assembled from thousands of protein molecules within the bacterial cytosol. Inside the Pdu MCP, several catalytical enzymes and cofactors involved in reactions for metabolizing 1,2-propanediol are encapsulated in a semi-permeable protein shell that comprises multi-subunit proteins in hexameric, pentameric, and trimeric states. Here, we seek a comprehensive understanding of the stoichiometric composition and organization of Pdu MCPs. We obtain accurate stoichiometry of shell proteins and internal enzymes of the natural Pdu MCP by QconCAT-driven quantitative mass spectrometry. Genetic deletion of the major shell protein and absolute stoichiometry analysis reveal the stoichiometric and structural remodeling of Pdu MCPs. Our new knowledge about the protein stoichiometry leads us to propose a model of the Pdu metabolosome structure. Moreover, atomic force microscopy of Pdu MCPs at the near-physiological condition illustrates the inherent flexibility of the Pdu MCP structure and the key role of cargo enzymes in maintaining mechanical stiffness of the biological architecture. These structural insights into the Pdu MCP will be critical for both delineating the general principles underlying bacterial organelle formation, structural robustness and function, and repurposing natural microcompartments using synthetic biology for biotechnological applications.

Project description:Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) enrich beneficial bifidobacteria in the infant gut microbiome which produce molecules that impact development and physiology. 2´fucosyllactose (2´FL) is a highly abundant fucosylated HMO which is utilized by Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis, despite limited scientific understanding of the underlying mechanism. Moreover, there is not a current consensus on whether free fucose could be metabolized when not incorporated in a larger oligosaccharide structure. Based on metabolic and genomic analyses, we hypothesize that B. infantis catabolizes both free fucose and fucosyl oligosaccharide residues to produce 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PD). Accordingly, systems-level approaches including transcriptomics and proteomics support this metabolic path. Co-fermentation of fucose and limiting lactose or glucose was found to promote significantly higher biomass and 1,2-PD concentrations than individual substrates, suggesting a synergistic effect. In addition, and during growth on 2´FL, B. infantis achieves significantly higher biomass corresponding to increased 1,2-PD. These findings support a singular fucose catabolic pathway in B. infantis that is active on both free and HMO-derived fucose and intimately linked with central metabolism. The impact of fucose and 2´FL metabolism on B. infantis physiology provides insight into the role of fucosylated HMOs in influencing host- and microbe-microbe interactions within the infant gut microbiome.

Project description:Clostridium ljungdahlii derives energy by acetogenesis as a lithotrophic pathway and as part of various organotrophic pathways. Its recently sequenced genome has made it possible to discover changes in gene expression that occur in different growth modes, from which strategies for biofuel production may be developed. C. ljungdahlii was grown with fructose as an organoheterotrophic substrate and also lithoautotrophically, either on syngas or with H2 as the electron donor and CO2 as the electron acceptor. RNA extracted from all three conditions was analyzed by hybridization to a microarray, and gene expression was compared quantitatively by RNA-Seq of C. ljungdahlii grown with fructose and with H2 and CO2. Results. Strongly upregulated (> 10-fold, p < 0.05) genes with both syngas and H2/CO2 encode enzymes that degrade aspartate and arginine through the urea cycle to control the release of ammonia from amino acids. Numerous genes for uptake and degradation of peptides and amino acids, response to sulfur starvation, and molybdopterin-dependent pathways were also significantly (> 2-fold, p < 0.05) upregulated, along with three potentially NADPH-producing pathways for which the key metabolites are (S)-malate, ornithine and 6-phospho-D-gluconate. Upregulation of genes implicated in quorum sensing, sporulation and cell wall remodeling suggests a global and multicellular response to lithoautotrophic conditions. With syngas, (R)-lactate dehydrogenase and associated electron transfer flavoproteins were upregulated, representing a route of electron transfer from ferredoxin to NAD that is independent of the proton-translocating Rnf complex. With H2/CO2, a flavodoxin and histidine biosynthesis enzymes were upregulated. Genes for degradation of purine bases entering the cell by facilitated diffusion were upregulated in lithotrophic cells, whereas genes for degradation of adenine or adenosine derivatives entering by active transport were significantly (2-fold, p < 0.05) downregulated. The most downregulated genes, after those specific to fructose metabolism, encode enzymes of pyrimidine and purine biosynthesis, arginine fermentation to ornithine, threonine biosynthesis and phosphate uptake. Genes for biogenesis of an intracytoplasmic microcompartment were downregulated, within which (S)-1,2-propanediol dehydratase and other enzymes may dispose of methylglyoxal, a toxic byproduct of glycolysis, as 1-propanol. Several redox-active proteins, both cytoplasmic and membrane-associated, and predicted cell surface proteins were identified as differentially regulated. Conclusion. The transcriptomic profiles of C. ljungdahlii in lithoautotrophic and organoheterotrophic growth modes indicate large-scale physiological and metabolic differences, observations that may guide the production of biofuels and commodity chemicals with this species.

Project description:Anaerobic benzene oxidation coupled to the reduction of Fe(III) was studied in Ferroglobus placidus in order to learn more about how such a stable molecule could be metabolized under strict anaerobic conditions. F. placidus conserved energy to support growth at 85°C in a medium with benzene provided as the sole electron donor and Fe(III) as the sole electron acceptor. The stoichiometry of benzene loss and Fe(III) reduction, as well as the conversion of [14C]-benzene to [14C]-carbon dioxide, was consistent with complete oxidation of benzene to carbon dioxide with electron transfer to Fe(III). Benzoate, but not phenol or toluene, accumulated at low levels during benzene metabolism and [14C]-benzoate was produced from [14C]-benzene. Analysis of gene transcript levels revealed increased expression of genes encoding enzymes for anaerobic benzoate degradation during growth on benzene versus growth on acetate, but genes involved in phenol degradation were not up-regulated during growth on benzene. A gene for a putative carboxylase that was more highly expressed in benzene- versus benzoate-grown cells was identified. These results suggest that benzene is carboxylated to benzoate and that phenol is not an important intermediate in the benzene metabolism of F. placidus. This is the first demonstration of a microorganism in pure culture that can grow on benzene under strict anaerobic conditions and for which there is strong evidence for degradation of benzene via clearly defined anaerobic metabolic pathways. Thus, F. placidus provides a much needed pure culture model for further studies on the anaerobic activation of benzene in microorganisms. A five-chip study using total RNA recovered from three separate cultures of Ferroglobus placidus DSM 10642 grown with 0.5 mM phenol (experimental condition) and two separate cultures of Ferroglobus placidus DSM 10642 grown on 1 mM benzoate (control condition). Each chip measures the expression level of 2,613 genes from Ferroglobus placidus DSM 10642 with nine 45-60-mer probe pairs (PM/MM) per gene, with three-fold technical redundancy.
