Project description:The diets of industrialized countries reflect the increasing use of processed foods, often with the inclusion of novel food additives. Xanthan gum is a complex polysaccharide with unique rheological properties that have established its use as a widespread stabilizer and thickening agent. Xanthan gum’s chemical structure is distinct from the host and dietary polysaccharides that are more commonly expected to transit the gastrointestinal tract, and little is known about its direct interaction with the gut microbiota, which plays a central role in digestion of other dietary fiber polysaccharides. Here, we show that the ability to digest xanthan gum is surprisingly common in industrialized human gut microbiomes and appears contingent on a single uncultured bacterium in the family Ruminococcaceae. Our data reveal that this primary degrader cleaves the xanthan gum backbone before processing the released oligosaccharides using additional enzymes. Surprisingly, some individuals harbor a Bacteroides intestinalis that is incapable of consuming polymeric xanthan gum but grows on oligosaccharide products generated by the Ruminococcaceae. Feeding xanthan gum to germfree mice colonized with a human microbiota containing the uncultured Ruminococcaceae supports the idea that this additive can drive expansion of this primary degrader along with exogenously introduced Bacteroides intestinalis. Our work demonstrates the existence of a potential xanthan gum food chain involving at least two members of different phyla of gut bacteria and provides an initial framework to understand how widespread consumption of a recently introduced food additive influences human microbiomes.

Project description:Xanthan gum, a natural heteropolysaccharide produced by Xanthomonas species, has many biotechnological applications across industries due to its unique rheological properties. Expanding its utility requires specific enzymes capable of targeted xanthan modification or degradation. In this study, a novel bacterial strain, isolated from a spoiled xanthan sample and identified as Paenibacillus taichungensis I5, was shown to degrade xanthan using a plate screening assay with Congo red. Enzyme activity tests of the culture supernatant demonstrated the secretion of xanthan-degrading enzymes. Genome and proteome analyses suggests a chromosomal xanthan utilization locus encoding a suite of enzymes, including a xanthanase (Pt_XanGH9), two xanthan lyases (Pt_XanPL8a and Pt_XanPL8b), two unsaturated glucuronidases, two α-mannosidases, as well as transport and regulator proteins. Functional characterization through recombinant protein expression and enzyme assays confirmed the functions of Pt_XanGH9, Pt_XanPL8a and Pt_XanPL8b on native xanthan and xanthan-derived oligosaccharides. The polysaccharide degradation products released by these enzymes were identified via LC-MS analysis. The two xanthan lyases differed in cleavage specificity. In contrast to Pt_XanPL8a, Pt_XanPL8b is synthesized with an N-terminal signal peptide, yet both lyases were detected in cell-free supernatant during growth on xanthan. Based on the composition of the xanthan utilization gene cluster and preliminary enzyme characteristics, a working model for xanthan utilization by P. taichungensis I5 is proposed. Reaching a better understanding of bacterial xanthan derivatives and xanthan degrading pathways and the enzymes involved may help to develop modified xanthan derivatives and xanthan degrading enzymes that align with the specific demands of various industrial process.

Project description:Few aerobic hyperthermophiles degrade polysaccharides. We describe the genome-enabled enrichment and isolation of an aerobic hyperthermophile, Fervidibacter sacchari, which was originally ascribed to candidate phylum Fervidibacteria. F. sacchari uses polysaccharides and monosaccharides as sole carbon sources from 65-87.5 °C, and its genome encodes 117 glycoside hydrolases (GHs) spanning 49 GH families, including 31 homologs of understudied GH109, GH177, and GH179 domains. Here, we analyzed the transcriptomes of F. sacchari cells grown on eight different sole carbon and energy sources (beta-glucan, chondroitin sulfate, corn stover, gellan gum, locust bean gum, starch, xanthan gum, and xyloglucan) to link glycoside hydrolase substrate to function, as well as identify potential regulatory mechanisms. These data will provide preliminary characterization of novel carbohydrate-active enzymes at high temperatures.

Project description:Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) B100 is a phytopathogenic bacterium, which uses xanthan, a secreted heterogeneous exopolysaccharide in both stages of infection of Brassicaceae. Until now, proteome analysis of Xcc lacking a detailed view on the proteins involved in xanthan biosynthesis. Proteins involved in the biosynthesis of this polysaccharide are located near, in or at the cell membrane. This study aims to establish a robust and rapid protocol for a comprehensive proteome analysis of Xcc strains, without the need to isolate different cell fractions. Therefore, a method for the analysis of the whole cell proteome was compared to the isolation of specific fractions regarding the total number of identified proteins, the overlap as well as the differences between the approaches. The whole cell proteome analysis using the “single-tube” preparation protocol resulted in more than 2,000 identified proteins with a coverage of 95.11% of the cell fraction specific identifications. To prove the usability of the protocol to study natural product formation at the envelope with proteins distributed over various cell fractions, Gum proteins of Xcc B100 were identified and quantified by a label free quantification (LFQ) approach. Thus, expression profiles of 9 out of 12 Gum proteins comparing stationary phase and growth phase were measured and showed differential expression levels within the operon structure. Five out of ten identified Gum proteins show a differential regulation indicating regulatory mechanisms beyond transcription level.

Project description:Rationale: Recent studies suggest a potential link between gut bacterial microbiota dysbiosis and PAH, but the exact role of gut microbial communities, including bacteria, archaea, and fungi, in PAH remains unclear. Objectives: To investigate the role of gut microbiota dysbiosis in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and to assess the therapeutic potential of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in modulating PAH progression. Methods: Using shotgun metagenomics, we analyzed gut microbial communities in IPAH patients and healthy controls. FMT was performed to transfer gut microbiota from IPAH patients or MCT-PAH rats to normal rats and from healthy rats to MCT-PAH rats. Hemodynamic measurements, echocardiography, histological examination, metabolomic and RNA-seq analysis were conducted to evaluate the effects of FMT on PAH phenotypes. Measurements and Main Results: Gut microbiota analysis revealed significant alterations in the bacterial, archaeal, and fungal communities in IPAH patients compared to healthy controls. FMT from IPAH patients induced PAH phenotypes in recipient rats. Conversely, FMT from healthy rats to IPAH rats significantly ameliorated PAH symptoms, restored gut microbiota composition, and normalized serum metabolite profiles. Specific microbial species were identified with high diagnostic potential for IPAH, improving predictive performance beyond individual or combined microbial communities. Conclusions: This study establishes a causal link between gut microbiota dysbiosis and IPAH and demonstrates the therapeutic potential of FMT in reversing PAH phenotypes. The findings highlight the critical role of bacterial, archaeal, and fungal communities in PAH pathogenesis and suggest that modulation of the gut microbiome could be a promising treatment strategy for PAH.

Project description:Disrupted interactions between host and intestinal bacteria are implicated in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the functional impacts of these inter-kingdom interactions remain poorly defined. To examine this interplay, we performed mouse and microbiota RNA-sequencing on colon tissue from germ-free (GF) and gnotobiotic ApcMin/+;Il10-/- mice associated with microbes from biofilm-positive human CRC tumor (BT) and biofilm-negative healthy (BX) tissues. The bacteria in BT mice differentially expressed >2,900 genes related to bacterial secretion, virulence and biofilms, but only affected 62 host genes. Importantly, the bacterial communities from BT mice were transmissible and carcinogenic when administered to a new GF ApcMin/+;Il10-/- cohort, maintaining a set of 13 bacterial genera. Our findings suggest complex interactions within bacterial communities affecting bacterial composition and CRC development.
