Propionicimonas Ferrireducens Sp. Nov., Isolated from Dissimilatory Iron(III)-Reducing Microbial Enrichment Obtained from Paddy Soil TAXONOMIC DESCRIPTION Zhou et al., Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2018;68:1914–1918 DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.002766 Propionicimonas ferrireducens sp. nov., isolated from dissimilatory iron(III)-reducing microbial enrichment obtained from paddy soil Guo-Wei Zhou,1,2 Xiao-Ru Yang,1,* Mohammed A. M. Wadaan,3 Wael N. Hozzein,3 Bang-Xiao Zheng,1,4 Jian-Qiang Su1 and Yong-Guan Zhu1,2 Abstract A novel strain, designated Y1A-10 4-9-1T, with Gram-stain-positive and rod-shaped cells, was isolated from paddy soil in Yingtan, Jiangxi, China. Cells were 0.15–0.2 µm wide and 1.5–3.3 µm long. The optimal growth temperature was 30 C and the optimal pH was 7.0. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that the novel strain is closely related to Propionicimonas paludicola JCM 11933T (98.57 %). The genomic DNA G+C content was 63.9 mol%. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4) and meso-diaminopimelic acid was present in the cell-wall peptidoglycan layer. The major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, one unidentified phospholipid and two unidentified lipids. The dominant cellular fatty acids T detected were anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0. The phylogenetic and phenotypic results supported that strain Y1A-10 4-9-1 is a novel species of the genus Propionicimonas, for which the name Propionicimonas ferrireducens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is Y1A-10 4-9-1T (=CCTCC AB 2016249T=KCTC 15566T=LMG 29810T).

In all samples analyzed, ubiquinones, menaquinone and fatty acids were the main components. Dominance and E5 suggested that a large number of organisms belonging to the b and subclasses Proteobacteria and Actinobacteria from higher GMC Gram-positive bacteria, respectively, were present. Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis analysis revealed at least 6-10 predominant DNA bands and numerous other fragments in each sample. Five major denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis fragments from each of 1.8% and 11.8% phosphate containing sludge samples, respectively, were successfully isolated and sequenced. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences revealed that both 3% and 15% phosphate -containing sludge samples shared three common phylotypes which are separately associated with new bacterial groups of subclass C Proteobacteria, two E5 containing Actinobacteria, and Caulobacter spp. The subclass Proteobacteria. Phylogenetic analysis revealed useful phylotypes unique for both samples sludge. Therefore, changes in the phosphate content did not affect the composition and quantity prevailing microbial population, although specific phylotypes could not be unambiguously associated with EBPR.

Gura A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE December 2019 Committee: Scott O. Rogers, Advisor Helen Michaels Paul Morris © 2019 Colby Gura All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Scott O. Rogers, Advisor Chapter 1: Lake Vostok is named for the nearby Vostok Station located at 78°28’S, 106°48’E and at an elevation of 3,488 m. The lake is covered by a glacier that is approximately 4 km thick and comprised of 4 different types of ice: meteoric, basal, type 1 accretion ice, and type 2 accretion ice. Six samples were derived from the glacial, basal, and accretion ice of the 5G ice core (depths of 2,149 m; 3,501 m; 3,520 m; 3,540 m; 3,569 m; and 3,585 m) and prepared through several processes. The RNA and DNA were extracted from ultracentrifugally concentrated meltwater samples. From the extracted RNA, cDNA was synthesized so the samples could be further manipulated. Both the cDNA and the DNA were amplified through polymerase chain reaction. Ion Torrent primers were attached to the DNA and cDNA and then prepared to be sequenced. Following sequencing the sequences were analyzed using BLAST. Python and Biopython were then used to collect more data and organize the data for manual curation and analysis. Chapter 2: As a result of the glacier and its geographic location, Lake Vostok is an extreme and unique environment that is often compared to Jupiter’s ice-covered moon, Europa.

Supervisory Committee Mitigating biofouling on reverse osmosis membranes via greener preservatives by Anna Curtin Biology (BSc), Le Moyne College, 2017 Supervisory Committee Heather Buckley, Department of Civil Engineering Supervisor Caetano Dorea, Department of Civil Engineering, Civil Engineering Departmental Member ii Abstract Water scarcity is an issue faced across the globe that is only expected to worsen in the coming years. We are therefore in need of methods for treating non-traditional sources of water. One promising method is desalination of brackish and seawater via reverse osmosis (RO). RO, however, is limited by biofouling, which is the buildup of organisms at the water-membrane interface. Biofouling causes the RO membrane to clog over time, which increases the energy requirement of the system. Eventually, the RO membrane must be treated, which tends to damage the membrane, reducing its lifespan. Additionally, antifoulant chemicals have the potential to create antimicrobial resistance, especially if they remain undegraded in the concentrate water. Finally, the hazard of chemicals used to treat biofouling must be acknowledged because although unlikely, smaller molecules run the risk of passing through the membrane and negatively impacting humans and the environment.

  • Isolation of Novel Actinomycetes from Spider Materials
    Actinomycetologica (2009) 23:8–15 Copyright Ó 2009 The Society for Actinomycetes Japan VOL. 23, NO. 1 Isolation of Novel Actinomycetes from Spider Materials Kimika IwaiÃ, Susumu Iwamoto, Kazuo Aisaka and Makoto Suzukiy Innovative Drug Research Laboratories, Kyowa Hakko Kirin Co., Ltd., 3-6-6 Asahi-machi, Machida-shi, Tokyo, 194-8533, Japan (Received Oct. 20, 2008 / Accepted Mar. 12, 2009 / Published May 29, 2009) To collect new kinds of microorganisms for screening of biologically active substances, we focused on spider materials (webs, cuticle, egg sac), previously uninvestigated sources of such organisms. Using a new method of pre-treatment with 70% ethanol, 1,159 strains of actinomycetes were isolated from 196 spider materials, based on their morphological features. Of these, 293 strains were identified as non-filamentous actino- mycetes from their 16S rRNA gene sequences. More detailed examination indicated that 139 strains belonged to the suborders Micrococcineae, Frankineae and Propionibacterineae, and they included some novel strains of non-filamentous actinomycetes. Thus, spider materials provide a more useful source of non- filamentous actinomycetes than do soil samples. INTRODUCTION paper, we report a new method of isolation of micro- organisms from spider materials pre-treated with 70% The unique structural diversity inherent in natural ethanol, and we describe relationships between the kinds of products continues to be recognized for its value in the spider materials used and the taxonomic diversity of the drug discovery process (Fenical & Jensen, 2006). However, isolates obtained. there has been a recent decline in the rate of discovery of novel bioactive substances obtained from common terres- MATERIALS AND METHODS trial microorganisms, despite an increase in the rate of re- isolation of known compounds (Magarvey et al., 2004).

Approx. 100 out of 150 antibiotics used in human therapy and agriculture are produced by actinomycetes. Finding novel leader compounds from actinomycetes is still one of the promising approaches to develop new pharmaceuticals. The aim of this study was to find new species and genera of actinomycetes as the basis for the discovery of new leader compounds for pharmaceuticals.
