Project description:Here we provide dataset from a proteomic experiment, using trypsin digestion, and reversed-phase chromatography (RPC) with tandem mass spectrometr (RPC-MS/MS), in order to relatively quantify the protein composition of skin mucus of Prussian carp Carassius gibelio. The main aim of the project is to identify the proteins specifically assotiated with fish inhabits euthophic shallow lakes lake Chany Lake (West Siberia).
Project description:This study investigates temporal dynamics in microbial community function within the freshwater ecosystem of Lake Zurich, Switzerland, over three months (36 timepoints). Metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) and metaproteomes were analyzed to identify species-specific and community-level protein expression patterns. The study explores how bacterial species contribute to ecosystem functioning through protein-level activity, focusing on relationships between species taxonomy, abundance, and protein investment patterns.
Project description:Adult pike Esox lucius was caught in the end of summer (August, 2020) in Teletskoye Lake (Altai region, west Siberia, Russia, 51°79’10’’ N, 87°30’43’’E). Parasite (Triaenophorus crassus) was retrieved from the intestine of pike and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. After that, the sample was lyophilized and sent in ice (-20 °C) to the Group of mass spectrometry of Shemyakin-Ovchinnikov Institute of Bioorganic Chemistry RAS (Moscow, Russia) where further analysis was performed.
Project description:Anthropogenic activities such as urbanization and agriculture can potentially pose a threat to neighboring freshwaters through nitrate and phosphorous contamination, which over time may lead to lake eutrophication. In such nitrogen-polluted environments, oxygen is depleted, and plants die and decompose. This enhances denitrifying microbes that respire under hypoxic/anoxic conditions by reducing nitrate instead of molecular oxygen and using plant remnants (lignocellulose) as carbon source. Microbial lignocellulose degradation has been well-studied for both aerobic- and anaerobic conditions; however, its degradation during denitrification remains largely unknown. Here we have applied a combination of gas kinetics and meta-omics techniques to enrich and analyze microbial communities from 10 eutrophic lakes to identify a set of core microbial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) present in all the eutrophic lakes. We have further investigated their strategies and enzyme profiles for degrading lignocellulose under denitrifying conditions. We identified Pseudomonadota, Bacteroidota, Verrucomicrobiota, and Actinomycetota as the most abundant phyla and they were present in enrichments from all eutrophic lakes having a key role in denitrification and fermentation. Lignocellulose degradation was, however, dominated by species outside the core microbiome, i.e., there were differing key degraders between lakes, suggesting some level of lake-specialization. Among these we observed potential respiratory DNRA pathways, and they expressed a broad range of CAZymes targeting the various lignocellulose subfractions. Interestingly, many of the detected MAGs contained NO dismutases, enzymes postulated to convert NO to molecular oxygen and dinitrogen gas.
