Project description:Global warming has shifted climate zones poleward or upward. However, understanding the responses and mechanism of microbial community structure and functions relevant to natural climate zone succession is challenged by the high complexity of microbial communities. Here, we examined soil microbial community in three broadleaved forests located in the Wulu Mountain (WLM, temperate climate), Funiu Mountain (FNM, at the border of temperate and subtropical climate zones), or Shennongjia Mountain (SNJ, subtropical climate).Soils were characterized for geochemistry, Illumina sequencing was used to determine microbial taxonomic communities and GeoChips 5.0 were used to determine microbial functional genes.

Project description:The melting of permafrost and its potential impact on greenhouse gas emissions is a major concern in the context of global warming. The fate of the carbon trapped in permafrost will largely depend on soil physico-chemical characteristics, among which are the quality and quantity of organic matter, pH and water content, and on microbial community composition. In this study, we used microarrays and real-time PCR (qPCR) targeting 16S rRNA genes to characterize the bacterial communities in three different soil types representative of various Arctic settings. The microbiological data were linked to soil physico-chemical characteristics and CO2 production rates. Microarray results indicated that soil characteristics, and especially the soil pH, were important parameters in structuring the bacterial communities at the genera/species levels. Shifts in community structure were also visible at the phyla/class levels, with the soil CO2 production rate being positively correlated to the relative abundance of the Alphaproteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Betaproteobacteria. These results indicate that CO2 production in Arctic soils does not only depend on the environmental conditions, but also on the presence of specific groups of bacteria that have the capacity to actively degrade soil carbon. Three different soil types from the Canadian high Arctic were sampled at two depths within the active layer of soil and at two sampling dates (winter and summer conditions), for a total of 20 samples.

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:This study evaluated the ammonium oxidizing communities (COA) associated with a potato crop (Solanum phureja) rhizosphere soil in the savannah of Bogotá (Colombia) by examining the presence and abundance of amoA enzyme genes and transcripts by qPCR and next-generation sequence analysis. amoA gene abundance could not be quantified by qPCR due to problems inherent in the primers; however, the melting curve analysis detected increased fluorescence for Bacterial communities but not for Archaeal communities. Transcriptome analysis by next-generation sequencing revealed that the majority of reads mapped to ammonium-oxidizing Archaea, suggesting that this activity is primarily governed by the microbial group of the Crenarchaeota phylum. In contrast,a lower number of reads mapped to ammonia-oxidizing bacteria.

Project description:Chemical communication is crucial in ecosystems with complex microbial assemblages. However, due to archaeal cultivation challenges, our understanding of the structure diversity and function of secondary metabolites (SMs) within archaeal communities is limited compared to the extensively studied and well-documented bacterial counterparts. Our comprehensive investigation into the biosynthetic potential of archaea, combined with metabolic analyses and the first report of heterologous expression in archaea, has unveiled the previously unexplored biosynthetic capabilities and chemical diversity of archaeal ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP). We have identified twenty-four new lanthipeptides of RiPPs exhibiting unique chemical characteristics, including a novel subfamily featuring an unexplored type with diamino-dicarboxylic (DADC) termini, largely expanding the chemical landscape of archaeal SMs. This sheds light on the chemical novelty of archaeal metabolites and emphasizes their potential as an untapped resource for natural product discovery. Additionally, archaeal lanthipeptides demonstrate specific antagonistic activity against haloarchaea, mediating the unique biotic interaction in the halophilic niche. Furthermore, they showcased a unique ecological role in enhancing the host's motility by inducing the rod-shaped cell morphology and upregulating the archaellum gene flgA1, facilitating the archaeal interaction with abiotic environments. These discoveries broaden our understanding of archaeal chemical language and provide promising prospects for future exploration of SM-mediated interaction.

Project description:Despite the global importance of forests, it is virtually unknown how their soil microbial communities adapt at the phylogenetic and functional level to long term metal pollution. Studying twelve sites located along two distinct gradients of metal pollution in Southern Poland revealed that both community composition (via MiSeq Illumina sequencing of 16S rRNA genes) and functional gene potential (using GeoChip 4.2) were highly similar across the gradients despite drastically diverging metal contamination levels. Metal pollution level significantly impacted microbial community structure (p = 0.037), but not bacterial taxon richness. Metal pollution altered the relative abundance of specific bacterial taxa, including Acidobacteria, Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes and Proteobacteria. Also, a group of metal resistance genes showed significant correlations with metal concentrations in soil, although no clear impact of metal pollution levels on overall functional diversity and structure of microbial communities was observed. While screens of phylogenetic marker genes, such as 16S rRNA, provided only limited insight into resilience mechanisms, analysis of specific functional genes, e.g. involved in metal resistance, appeared to be a more promising strategy. This study showed that the effect of metal pollution on soil microbial communities was not straightforward, but could be filtered out from natural variation and habitat factors by multivariate statistical analysis and spatial sampling involving separate pollution gradients.

Project description:Since their discovery, archaea have not only proven a fascinating domain in their own right, but also helped us understand the evolution and function of molecular components they share with bacteria or eukaryotes. Archaeal histones are homologous to their eukaryotic counterparts, but operate in a less constrained bacterial-like cellular environment and their role in transcription and genome function remains obscure. In order to understand how archaeal histones affect transcriptional processes, we induced expression of the two histones from the archaeon Methanothermus fervidus in a naive bacterial system (E. coli) that has not evolved to integrate this kind of proteins. We show, using a series of MNase digestion experiments, that these histones bind the bacterial genome and wrap DNA in vivo in a pattern consistent with a previously proposed multimerisation model, in a similar pattern observed natively. We correlate genome-wide occupancy maps and gene expression profiles in different phases of growth to show that – although expression of archaeal histones triggers morphological changes in E. coli – there appears to only be an indirect effect on transcription.
