D’Angelo Lexington, KY 2008 Copyright © Andres Enrique Nunez 2008 ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION MICROBIAL COMMUNITY STRUCTURE DYNAMICS IN OHIO RIVER SEDIMENTS DURING REDUCTIVE DECHLORINATION OF PCBS The entire stretch of the Ohio River is under fish consumption advisories due to contamination with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In this study, natural attenuation and biostimulation of PCBs and microbial communities responsible for PCB transformations were investigated in Ohio River sediments. Natural attenuation of PCBs was negligible in sediments, which was likely attributed to low temperature conditions during most of the year, as well as low amounts of available nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic carbon.

  • Core Sulphate-Reducing Microorganisms in Metal-Removing Semi-Passive Biochemical Reactors and the Co-Occurrence of Methanogens
    microorganisms Article Core Sulphate-Reducing Microorganisms in Metal-Removing Semi-Passive Biochemical Reactors and the Co-Occurrence of Methanogens Maryam Rezadehbashi and Susan A. Baldwin * Chemical and Biological Engineering, University of British Columbia, 2360 East Mall, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z3, Canada; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-604-822-1973 Received: 2 January 2018; Accepted: 17 February 2018; Published: 23 February 2018 Abstract: Biochemical reactors (BCRs) based on the stimulation of sulphate-reducing microorganisms (SRM) are emerging semi-passive remediation technologies for treatment of mine-influenced water. Their successful removal of metals and sulphate has been proven at the pilot-scale, but little is known about the types of SRM that grow in these systems and whether they are diverse or restricted to particular phylogenetic or taxonomic groups. A phylogenetic study of four established pilot-scale BCRs on three different mine sites compared the diversity of SRM growing in them. The mine sites were geographically distant from each other, nevertheless the BCRs selected for similar SRM types. Clostridia SRM related to Desulfosporosinus spp. known to be tolerant to high concentrations of copper were members of the core microbial community. Members of the SRM family Desulfobacteraceae were dominant, particularly those related to Desulfatirhabdium butyrativorans. Methanogens were dominant archaea and possibly were present at higher relative abundances than SRM in some BCRs. Both hydrogenotrophic and acetoclastic types were present. There were no strong negative or positive co-occurrence correlations of methanogen and SRM taxa. Knowing which SRM inhabit successfully operating BCRs allows practitioners to target these phylogenetic groups when selecting inoculum for future operations.

  • Microbial Diversity Under Extreme Euxinia: Mahoney Lake, Canada V

A dense plate of phototrophic purple sulfur bacteria is found at the chemocline, but to date the rest of the Mahoney Lake microbial ecosystem has been underexamined. In particular, the microbial community that resides in the aphotic hypolimnion and ⁄ or in the lake sediments is unknown, and it is unclear whether the sulfate reducers that supply sulfide for phototrophy live only within, or also below, the plate. Here we profiled distribu- tions of 16S rRNA genes using gene clone libraries and PhyloChip microarrays. Both approaches suggest that microbial diversity is greatest in the hypolimnion (8 m) and sediments. Diversity is lowest in the photosynthetic plate (7 m). Shallower depths (5 m, 7 m) are rich in Actinobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, and Gammaproteo- bacteria, while deeper depths (8 m, sediments) are rich in Crenarchaeota, Natronoanaerobium, and Verrucomi- crobia. The heterogeneous distribution of Deltaproteobacteria and Epsilonproteobacteria between 7 and 8 m is consistent with metabolisms involving sulfur intermediates in the chemocline, but complete sulfate reduction in the hypolimnion.

  • Characterization of a Novel Porin-Like Protein, Exti, from Geobacter Sulfurreducens and Its Implication in the Reduction of Selenite and Tellurite
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article Characterization of a Novel Porin-Like Protein, ExtI, from Geobacter sulfurreducens and Its Implication in the Reduction of Selenite and Tellurite Mst. Ishrat Jahan †, Ryuta Tobe † and Hisaaki Mihara * Department of Biotechnology, College of Life Sciences, Ritsumeikan University, Kusatsu, Shiga 525-8577, Japan; [email protected] (M.I.J.); [email protected] (R.T.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-77-561-2732 † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 16 February 2018; Accepted: 8 March 2018; Published: 11 March 2018 Abstract: The extI gene in Geobacter sulfurreducens encodes a putative outer membrane channel porin, which resides within a cluster of extHIJKLMNOPQS genes. This cluster is highly conserved across the Geobacteraceae and includes multiple putative c-type cytochromes. In silico analyses of the ExtI sequence, together with Western blot analysis and proteinase protection assays, showed that it is an outer membrane protein. The expression level of ExtI did not respond to changes in osmolality and phosphate starvation. An extI-deficient mutant did not show any significant impact on fumarate or Fe(III) citrate reduction or sensitivity to β-lactam antibiotics, as compared with those of the wild-type strain. However, extI deficiency resulted in a decreased ability to reduce selenite and tellurite. Heme staining analysis revealed that extI deficiency affects certain heme-containing proteins in the outer and inner membranes, which may cause a decrease in the ability to reduce selenite and tellurite. Based on these observations, we discuss possible roles for ExtI in selenite and tellurite reduction in G.

  • Microbial Community Dynamics and Coexistence in a Sulfide-Driven Phototrophic Bloom Srijak Bhatnagar1†, Elise S
    Bhatnagar et al. Environmental Microbiome (2020) 15:3 Environmental Microbiome https://doi.org/10.1186/s40793-019-0348-0 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Microbial community dynamics and coexistence in a sulfide-driven phototrophic bloom Srijak Bhatnagar1†, Elise S. Cowley2†, Sebastian H. Kopf3, Sherlynette Pérez Castro4, Sean Kearney5, Scott C. Dawson6, Kurt Hanselmann7 and S. Emil Ruff4* Abstract Background: Lagoons are common along coastlines worldwide and are important for biogeochemical element cycling, coastal biodiversity, coastal erosion protection and blue carbon sequestration. These ecosystems are frequently disturbed by weather, tides, and human activities. Here, we investigated a shallow lagoon in New England. The brackish ecosystem releases hydrogen sulfide particularly upon physical disturbance, causing blooms of anoxygenic sulfur-oxidizing phototrophs. To study the habitat, microbial community structure, assembly and function we carried out in situ experiments investigating the bloom dynamics over time. Results: Phototrophic microbial mats and permanently or seasonally stratified water columns commonly contain multiple phototrophic lineages that coexist based on their light, oxygen and nutrient preferences. We describe similar coexistence patterns and ecological niches in estuarine planktonic blooms of phototrophs. The water column showed steep gradients of oxygen, pH, sulfate, sulfide, and salinity. The upper part of the bloom was dominated by aerobic phototrophic Cyanobacteria, the middle and lower parts by anoxygenic purple sulfur bacteria (Chromatiales) and green sulfur bacteria (Chlorobiales), respectively. We show stable coexistence of phototrophic lineages from five bacterial phyla and present metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of two uncultured Chlorobaculum and Prosthecochloris species. In addition to genes involved in sulfur oxidation and photopigment biosynthesis the MAGs contained complete operons encoding for terminal oxidases.

  • 1 Characterization of Sulfur Metabolizing Microbes in a Cold Saline Microbial Mat of the Canadian High Arctic Raven Comery Mast
    Characterization of sulfur metabolizing microbes in a cold saline microbial mat of the Canadian High Arctic Raven Comery Master of Science Department of Natural Resource Sciences Unit: Microbiology McGill University, Montreal July 2015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master in Science © Raven Comery 2015 1 Abstract/Résumé The Gypsum Hill (GH) spring system is located on Axel Heiberg Island of the High Arctic, perennially discharging cold hypersaline water rich in sulfur compounds. Microbial mats are found adjacent to channels of the GH springs. This thesis is the first detailed analysis of the Gypsum Hill spring microbial mats and their microbial diversity. Physicochemical analyses of the water saturating the GH spring microbial mat show that in summer it is cold (9°C), hypersaline (5.6%), and contains sulfide (0-10 ppm) and thiosulfate (>50 ppm). Pyrosequencing analyses were carried out on both 16S rRNA transcripts (i.e. cDNA) and genes (i.e. DNA) to investigate the mat’s community composition, diversity, and putatively active members. In order to investigate the sulfate reducing community in detail, the sulfite reductase gene and its transcript were also sequenced. Finally, enrichment cultures for sulfate/sulfur reducing bacteria were set up and monitored for sulfide production at cold temperatures. Overall, sulfur metabolism was found to be an important component of the GH microbial mat system, particularly the active fraction, as 49% of DNA and 77% of cDNA from bacterial 16S rRNA gene libraries were classified as taxa capable of the reduction or oxidation of sulfur compounds.
