Project description:Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) and Drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) are critical points for public health for persistently remaining microorganisms after treatment may pose a risk. This study aimed to conduct microbial metagenomic analyses on waters from both DWTPs and WWTPs under the Istanbul Water and Sewerage Administration (ISKI). In this study a total of 52 samples were included, comprising 18 samples from DWTPs and 34 from WWTPs. All water samples underwent pre-isolation filtration. DNA isolation was conducted using filter material, followed by library preparation and sequencing on a NovaSeq 6000 instrument following the manufacturer's guidelines.
Project description:We have previously reported that phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase(Pck) overexpression under glycolytic conditions enables Escherichia coli to harbor a high intracellular ATP pool resulting in enhanced recombinant protein synthesis and biohydrogen production. To understand possible reasons of the high ATP haboring cell, we carried out transcriptome and metabolic flux analysis.

Project description:A biohydrogen and polyhydroxyalkanoates(PHA)-producing natural photoheterotrophic mixed culture composed mainly by Rhodopseudomonas palustris and Clostridium sp was studied by a proteomic analysis under non-growth conditions (nitrogen-absence and organic acids). Proteins in C. pasteurianum were upregulated, particularly those related to stress response. In contrast, C. pasteurianum in the consortium did not present such proteins, showing the advantage of being part of it. Both cultures showed proteins involved in organic acid metabolism and biohydrogen production, such as lactate dehydrogenase, ferredoxins, and hydrogenases. Proteomes of R. palustris as single culture and in consortium showed that organic acids were redirect into central carbon pathways to generate reduced equivalents for biohydrogen production. Light-harvesting proteins and fatty acid metabolism linked to PHA accumulation were also upregulated. This study provides insights into how the proteomes of individual organisms and their consortium counterparts adapt to non-growth conditions, shedding light on how microbial interactions influence protein expression.
