Project description:Background: The International Space Station is an orbiting laboratory for microbial research in space, where microorganisms can be exposed to multiple extremes. Dehydrated cell clusters of extremophilic bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans have survived 3-year exposure outside the International Space Station in frames of the Tanpopo mission. We investigated the robust molecular machinery of Deinococcus radiodurans involved in its recovery after long-term space travel. Methods: The space-exposed and ground control cells of Deinococcus radiodurans were recovered in a complex medium for 5 and 15 h and investigated using integrative –omics techniques combined with electron microscopy tools. Consolidative transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic analyses were performed to investigate molecular kinetics of cell recovery after 3-year exposure to low Earth orbit. Results: Ultrastructure analysis showed that Deinococcus radiodurans cells remained intact after low Earth orbit exposure for 3 years. Multiscale molecular analysis revealed significant alterations in response to long-term space travel. Key adaptations included upregulated DNA repair genes,stress response regulators, and oxidative stress scavenging enzymes. Proteins associated with transmembrane processes, cell division, and stress defence were also upregulated. Metabolomic analysis showed that only a few amino acids, sugars, and specific metabolites were more abundant after low Earth orbit exposure, suggesting energy conservation for molecular repair and regulation.Primordial stress molecule spermidine is also involved in cells recovery, helping combat the stress factors after space travel. Conclusion: Comparative –omics profile of extracted mRNA, proteins and metabolites allowed us to propose a multiscale dynamic molecular response of Deinococcus radiodurans after 3 years of space exposure. The kinetic profile with 2 timepoints during post-exposure analysis enabled the identification of foreground molecular targets employed by this microorganism in recovery after a space journey. Altogether, a multi-omics approach towards space-exposed cells revealed a strong focus on repair mechanisms, stress defence, and the utilization of external resources during the initial recovery phase. These findings expand our understanding of the molecular mechanisms employed by extremophiles to survive in space, providing implications for astrobiology and future space exploration.

Project description:Abstract Background The extraordinarily resistant bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans withstands harsh environmental conditions present in outer space. Deinococcus radiodurans was exposed for one year outside the International Space Station within Tanpopo orbital mission to investigate microbial survival and space travel. In addition, a ground-based simulation experiment with conditions, mirroring those from Low Earth orbit, was performed. Methods We monitored Deinococcus radiodurans cells during early stage of recovery after Low Earth orbit exposure using electron microscopy tools. Furthermore, proteomic, transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses were performed to identify molecular mechanisms responsible for the survival of Deinococcus radiodurans in Low Earth orbit. Results D. radiodurans cells exposed to low Earth orbit conditions do not exhibit any morphological damage. However, an accumulation of numerous outer-membrane associated vesicles was observed. On levels of proteins and transcripts, a multifaceted response was detected to alleviate cell stress. The UvrABC endonuclease excision repair mechanism was triggered to cope with DNA damage. Defense against reactive oxygen species is mirrored by the increased abundance of catalases and is accompanied by the increased abundance of putrescine which works as scavenging molecule. In addition, several proteins and mRNAs, responsible for regulatory and transporting functions showed increased abundances. The decrease in primary metabolites indicate alternations in the energy status, which is needed to repair damaged molecules. Conclusion Low Earth orbit induced molecular rearrangements trigger multiple components of metabolic stress response and regulatory networks in exposed microbial cells. Presented results show that the non-sporulating bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans survived long-term Low Earth orbit exposure if wavelength below 200 nm are not present, which mirrors the UV spectrum of Mars, where CO2 effectively provides a shield below 190 nm. These results should be considered in the context of planetary protection concerns and the development of new sterilization techniques for future space missions.

Project description:Increasing evidences showing that succinylation of lysine residue mainly regulates enzymes involved in the carbon metabolism pathway, both in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Deinococcus radiodurans is one of the most radioresistant organisms on earth, which is famous for its robust resistance. A major goal in the current study of protein succinylation is to explore its function in D. radiodurans. We used high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for qualitative proteomics to perform a global succinylation analysis of D. radiodurans and identified 492 succinylation sites on 270 proteins. These identified proteins are involved in a variety of biological process and pathways.

Project description:As plans for future space exploration are becoming more ambitious, a better understanding of all factors affecting humans, plants, and microorganisms in space is necessary. Microgravity is an important variable in outer space and understanding the short- and long- term effects of microgravity on cellular processes will be important to minimize its negative effects on the physiology of any organism. Gravitational force has had an important role in the development of life on Earth, and short- and long-term changes in perceived gravitational force can induce notable changes within cells. Deinococcus radiodurans is the gram-positive bacterium that is best known for its extreme resistance to UV-C and gamma radiation, oxidation stress and desiccation, which has led to increased interest in this species in the context of astrobiology. The present study aimed to elucidate the short-term proteomic response of this species to real microgravity during parabolic flight. Overnight cultures were subjected to microgravity during a single parabola, and metabolic activity quenched using methanol. Proteins were extracted and subsequently measured using HPLC ESI MS/MS. Results indicated multiple affected processes in the cell envelope of D. radiodurans, such as increased peptidoglycan synthesis and altered S-layer activities. Energy metabolism upregulation and increased activity of DNA repair pathways could indicate increased endogenous ROS production that contributes to the stress response. The present study shows that the D. radiodurans proteome reacts to real microgravity within seconds. Differential expression patterns in response to microgravity show similarities to previously reported stress responses, thus the present results could be used as basis for future research aiming to better understand the complex regulatory processes underpinning stress management in D. radiodurans.
