Project description:The transcription of the cldEFGC gene cluster of Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003 was shown to be induced upon growth on cellodextrins, implicating these genes in the metabolism of these sugars. Phenotypic analysis of a B. breve UCC2003::cldE insertion mutant confirmed that the cld gene cluster is exclusively required for cellodextrin utilization by this bacterium. HPAEC-PAD analysis of medium samples obtained during growth of B. breve UCC2003 on a mixture of cellodextrins revealed its ability to utilize cellobiose, cellotriose, cellotetraose and cellopentaose, with cellotriose representing the preferred substrate. The cldC gene of the cld operon of B. breve UCC2003 was shown to be the first described bifidobacterial β-glucosidase exhibiting hydrolytic activity towards various cellodextrins.

Project description:Bifidobacteria constitute a specific group of commensal bacteria which inhabit the gastrointestinal tract of humans and other mammals. Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003 has previously been shown to utilise several plant-derived carbohydrates that include cellodextrins, starch and galactan. In the current study, we investigate the ability of this strain to utilise the mucin- and human milk oligosaccharide (HMO)-derived carbohydrate, sialic acid. Using a combination of transcriptomic and functional genomic approaches, we identified a gene cluster dedicated to the uptake and metabolism of sialic acid. Furthermore, we demonstrate that B. breve UCC2003 can cross feed on sialic acid derived from the metabolism of 3’ sialyllactose, a HMO, by Bifidobacterium bifidum PRL2010.

The cldC gene of the cld operon of B. breve UCC2003 was shown to be the first described bifidobacterial β-glucosidase exhibiting hydrolytic activity towards various cellodextrins. In order to investigate differences in gene expression patterns of B. breve UCC2003 when grown on cellobiose or cellodextrins as compared to growth on glucose, DNA microarray experiments were performed. Total RNA was isolated from B. breve UCC2003 cultures grown on cellobiose, cellodextrins, or glucose (see Materials and Methods). The cultures were harvested at the time points that ensured that B. breve UCC2003 was metabolizing cellobiose or cellodextrins as opposed to the residual glucose present in the cellodextrin preparation. Analysis of the DNA microarray data was obtained from two independent biological replicates.

Project description:Bifidobacterium are considered to be beneficial for human health and are classified as probiotic bacterium. They must resist many environmental stress factors in order to survive in the gastrointestinal environment including; pH, oxygen availability, bile and nutrient starvation (eg: iron or carbon). This study investigates Bifidobacterium breve UCC2003 global genome response to growth under ferrous and/or ferric iron limiting conditions. Revealing that growth under iron limitation effects many processes in the cell including carbon and nitrogen metabolism and induces/reduces the expression of numerous genes; including multiple iron uptake systems, DPS proteins (which are predicted to be involved in iron storage/DNA protection), Fe-S cluster associated proteins and a bile salt hydrolase (bshB). Insertional mutagenesis and survival assays were employed and demonstrated that iron starvation imposed on B. breve UCC2003 results in an increased resistance to bile stress due to in part the iron-inducible transcription of the bshB gene. Furthermore, this study links BSH activity in B. breve UCC2003 to its ability to survive the deleterious effects of bile salt and suggest that B. breve UCC2003 may be use iron as a signal to adapt to the constantly changing environment within the small intestine.
