Project description:Macroalgae contribute substantially to primary production in coastal ecosystems. Their biomass, mainly consisting of polysaccharides, is cycled into the environment by marine heterotrophic bacteria (MHB), using largely uncharacterized mechanisms. In Zobellia galactanivorans, we discovered and characterized the complete catabolic pathway for carrageenans, major cell wall polysaccharides of red macroalgae, providing a model system for carrageenan utilization by MHB. We further demonstrate that carrageenan catabolism relies on a multifaceted carrageenan-induced regulon, including a non-canonical polysaccharide utilization locus (PUL) and several distal genes. The genetic structure of the carrageenan utilization system is well conserved in marine Bacteroidetes, but modified in other MHB phyla. The core system is completed by additional functions which can be assumed by non-orthologous genes in different species. This complex genetic structure is due to multiple evolutionary events including gene duplications and horizontal gene transfers. These results allow for an extension on the definition of bacterial PUL-mediated polysaccharide digestion.

Project description:Previous studies have demonstrated that the iron content in marine heterotrophic bacteria is comparatively higher than that of phytoplankton. Therefore, they have been indicated to play a major role in the biogeochemical cycling of iron. In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential of viral lysis as a source of iron for marine heterotrophic bacteria. Viral lysates were derived from the marine heterotrophic bacterium, Vibrio natriegens PWH3a (A.K.A Vibrio alginolyticus). The bioavailability of Fe in the lysates was determined using a model heterotrophic bacterium, namely, Dokdonia sp. strain Dokd-P16, isolated from Fe-limited waters along Line P transect in the Northeastern Pacific Ocean. The bacteria were grown under Fe-deplete or Fe-replete conditions before being exposed to the viral lysate. Differential gene expression following exposure to the viral lysate was analyzed via RNA sequencing to identify differentially expressed genes under iron-replete and iron-deplete conditions. This study would provide novel insights into the role of viral lysis in heterotrophic bacteria in supplying bioavailable iron to other marine microorganisms under iron-limiting and non-limiting conditions. First, the marine heterotrophic bacterium genome, Dokdonia sp. strain Dokd-P16, was sequenced to provide a genomic context for the expression studies. Subsequently, the relative gene expression in Dokdonia sp. strain Dokd-P16 grown under Fe limiting and non-limiting conditions were analyzed. This transcriptomic approach would be utilized to elucidate genes regulated by Fe availability in Dokdonia sp. strain Dokd-P16, which indicate its Fe-related response viral lysate exposure. Taken together, in this study, the transcriptomic responses of Fe-limited and non-limited marine heterotrophic bacteria were analyzed, which provided novel insights into the biological availability of Fe from the viral lysates.

Project description:About one half of the global, biogenic carbon dioxide fixation into organic matter is driven by microscopic algae in the surface oceans. These microalgal activities generate, among other molecules, polysaccharides that are food for and recycled by bacteria with polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). These genetic clusters of co-evolved genes, which work together in recognition, depolymerizing and uptake of one type of polysaccharide. However, we rarely know the substrates of PULs present in marine bacteria. Here we investigated the proteomic and physiological response of mannan PULs from marine Flavobacteriia isolated in the North Sea. The genomic clusters of these marine Bacteroidetes are related to PULs of human gut Bacteroides strains, which are known to digest α- and β-mannans from yeasts and plants respectively. Proteomics and defined growth experiments with these types of mannans as sole carbon source confirmed the functional prediction. Our data suggest that biochemical principles established for gut or terrestrial microbes apply to marine bacteria even though the PULs are evolutionary distant. Moreover, our data support discoveries from the 60th reporting mannans in microalgae suggesting that these polysaccharides play an important role in the marine carbon cycle.

Project description:The polysaccharide β-mannan, which is common in terrestrial plants but unknown in microalgae, was recently detected during diatom blooms. We identified a β-mannan polysaccharide utilization locus (PUL) in the genome of the marine Flavobacterium Muricauda sp. MAR_2010_75 which resembles PULs in bacteria from diverse ecosystems. Proteomics showed the β-mannan induced translation of 22 proteins encoded within the PUL.

Project description:Bacteria respond to stimuli in the environment using transcriptional control, but this may not be the case for most marine bacteria having small, streamlined genomes. Candidatus Pelagibacter ubique, a cultivated representative of the SAR11 clade, which is the most abundant clade in the oceans 4, has a small, streamlined genome and possesses an unusually small number of transcriptional regulators. This observation leads to the hypothesis that transcriptional control is low in Pelagibacter and limits its response to environmental conditions. However, the extent of transcriptional control in Pelagibacter is unknown. Here we show that transcriptional control is extremely low in Pelagibacter and another oligotroph (SAR92) compared to two marine copiotrophic bacterial taxa, Polaribacter MED152 and Ruegeria pomeroyi. We found that ~0.1% of protein-encoding genes in Pelagibacter are under transcriptional control compared to >10% of genes in other marine bacteria. Regardless of the growth condition, the same genes were highly expressed while most genes were always expressed at very low levels. Quantitative RNA sequencing revealed that abundances of most Pelagibacter transcripts were <0.01 copies per cell whereas transcript abundances were 1 to 10 copies per cell in some other bacteria. Our results demonstrate that Pelagibacter can change growth without shifts in transcript levels, suggesting that transcriptional control plays a minimal role in the adaptive strategy for one of the most successful organisms in the biosphere.
