Project description:The deep-sea tubeworm Riftia pachyptila is a model system for a mutualistic association: The adult worm has no digestive system, but completely relies on one phylotype of endosymbiotic chemosynthetic bacteria for nutrition. The bacteria, in turn, are provisioned by the host. Metabolism and physiology of this symbiosis, particularly of the uncultured symbiont, have been subject to various studies. Yet, how both partners interact on the molecular level remains largely unknown. To study these host-symbiont interactions in detail, we sequenced the R. pachyptila host transcriptome de novo, and conducted comprehensive metaproteomic comparisons of symbiont-containing and symbiont-free R. pachyptila tissues under energy-rich and energy-limiting conditions. Our results demonstrate that R. pachyptila invests a considerable part of its proteome to provision the symbionts with inorganic compounds. It acquires symbiont-derived biomass primarily by digesting parts of the symbiont population. The R. pachyptila immune system apparently not only protects the holobiont from pathogens, but is also involved in symbiont population control. The symbiont expresses a repertoire of proteins dedicated to communication with the host, including eukaryote-like proteins that may counteract phagocytosis. During energy limitation, i.e., when reduced sulfur compounds are lacking, the host apparently increases symbiont digestion. We show here an intricate network of interaction pathways that shapes the R. pachyptila holobiont. Together with the metabolic flexibility of the association under varying energy conditions, this probably forms the basis for the success of this tight association under the highly challenging deep-sea conditions.

Project description:The endosymbiont population of the hydrothermal vent tube worm Riftia pachyptila consists of a single 16S phylotype of sulfur-oxidizing gammaproteobacteria. The intracellular symbiont exhibits remarkable morphological heterogeneity, from small rod-shaped or coccoid cells to large cocci, which were suggested to be part of a common cell cycle. To assess whether these morphological differences are accompanied by distinct metabolic profiles, we physically enriched individual symbiont cells sizes by density gradient centrifugation and subjected these enrichments to metaproteomic analysis and statistical evaluation using clustering and random forests. Unlike previous molecular studies, which examined the metabolism of the symbiont population as whole, we were thus able to unravel comprehensive protein abundance patterns of individual symbiont subpopulations. Supported by microscopic analyses, our metaproteomic results show that Riftia symbiont cells of different sizes are stages of a physiological differentiation process: Small symbionts actively divide and may establish cellular symbiont-host interaction, as indicated by highest abundance of the cell division key protein FtsZ and highly abundant chaperones and porins in this initial phase. We furthermore present evidence that large symbionts, on the other hand, do not divide, but still replicate DNA, leading to DNA endoreduplication. Highest abundance of enzymes for CO2 fixation, carbon storage and biosynthesis indicates that in its late differentiation stage, the symbiont’s metabolism is efficiently geared on the production of organic material. We propose that this symbiont aging process enhances the productivity of the symbiosis as a whole.

Project description:A mutualistic relationship between reef-building corals and endosymbiotic algae (Symbiodinium spp.) forms the basis for the existence of coral reefs. Genotyping tools for Symbiodinium spp. have added a new level of complexity to studies concerning cnidarian growth, nutrient acquisition, and stress. For example, the response of the coral holobiont to thermal stress is connected to the host-Symbiodinium genotypic combination, as different partnerships can have different bleaching susceptibilities. If, and to what extent, differences in algal symbiont clade contents can exert effects on the coral host transcriptome is currently unknown. In this study, we monitored algal physiological parameters and profiled the coral host transcriptional responses in acclimated, thermally stressed, and recovered coral fragments using a custom cDNA gene expression microarray. Combining these analyses with results from algal and host genotyping revealed a striking symbiont effect on both the acclimated coral host transcriptome and the magnitude of the thermal stress response. This is the first study that links coral host transcriptomic patterns to the clade content of their algal symbiont community. Our data provide a critical step to elucidating the molecular basis of the apparent variability seen among different coral-algal partnerships.
