    Sea Squirt Symbionts! Or what I did on my summer vacation… Leah Blasiak 2011 Microbial Diversity Course Abstract Microbial symbionts of tunicates (sea squirts) have been recognized for their capacity to produce novel bioactive compounds. However, little is known about most tunicate-associated microbial communities, even in the embryology model organism Ciona intestinalis. In this project I explored 3 local tunicate species (Ciona intestinalis, Molgula manhattensis, and Didemnum vexillum) to identify potential symbiotic bacteria. Tunicate-specific bacterial communities were observed for all three species and their tissue specific location was determined by CARD-FISH. Introduction Tunicates and other marine invertebrates are prolific sources of novel natural products for drug discovery (reviewed in Blunt, 2010). Many of these compounds are biosynthesized by a microbial symbiont of the animal, rather than produced by the animal itself (Schmidt, 2010). For example, the anti-cancer drug patellamide, originally isolated from the colonial ascidian Lissoclinum patella, is now known to be produced by an obligate cyanobacterial symbiont, Prochloron didemni (Schmidt, 2005). Research on such microbial symbionts has focused on their potential for overcoming the “supply problem.” Chemical synthesis of natural products is often challenging and expensive, and isolation of sufficient quantities of drug for clinical trials from wild sources may be impossible or environmentally costly. Culture of the microbial symbiont or heterologous expression of the biosynthetic genes offers a relatively economical solution. Although the microbial origin of many tunicate compounds is now well established, relatively little is known about the extent of such symbiotic associations in tunicates and their biological function. Tunicates (or sea squirts) present an interesting system in which to study bacterial/eukaryotic symbiosis as they are deep-branching members of the Phylum Chordata (Passamaneck, 2005 and Buchsbaum, 1948).

Lamellodysidea herbacea sponges obtain additional energy from abundant photosynthetic Hormoscilla cyanobacterial symbionts, which also produce polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) chemically similar to anthropogenic pollutants of environmental concern. Potential contributions of non-Hormoscilla bacteria to Lamellodysidea microbiome metabolism and the synthesis and degradation of additional secondary metabolites are currently unknown.

The floc-forming bacteria play a central role in activated sludge, which has been widely utilized for the treatment of municipal sewage and industrial wastewater. Here, we use a floc-forming bacterium, Aquincola tertiaricarbonis RN12, as a model to explore the biosynthesis of extracellular polysaccharides and the regulation of floc formation.

  • A Novel Species of the Marine Cyanobacterium Acaryochloris With
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN A novel species of the marine cyanobacterium Acaryochloris with a unique pigment content and Received: 12 February 2018 Accepted: 1 June 2018 lifestyle Published: xx xx xxxx Frédéric Partensky 1, Christophe Six1, Morgane Ratin1, Laurence Garczarek1, Daniel Vaulot1, Ian Probert2, Alexandra Calteau 3, Priscillia Gourvil2, Dominique Marie1, Théophile Grébert1, Christiane Bouchier 4, Sophie Le Panse2, Martin Gachenot2, Francisco Rodríguez5 & José L. Garrido6 All characterized members of the ubiquitous genus Acaryochloris share the unique property of containing large amounts of chlorophyll (Chl) d, a pigment exhibiting a red absorption maximum strongly shifted towards infrared compared to Chl a. Chl d is the major pigment in these organisms and is notably bound to antenna proteins structurally similar to those of Prochloron, Prochlorothrix and Prochlorococcus, the only three cyanobacteria known so far to contain mono- or divinyl-Chl a and b as major pigments and to lack phycobilisomes. Here, we describe RCC1774, a strain isolated from the foreshore near Roscof (France). It is phylogenetically related to members of the Acaryochloris genus but completely lacks Chl d. Instead, it possesses monovinyl-Chl a and b at a b/a molar ratio of 0.16, similar to that in Prochloron and Prochlorothrix. It difers from the latter by the presence of phycocyanin and a vestigial allophycocyanin energetically coupled to photosystems. Genome sequencing confrmed the presence of phycobiliprotein and Chl b synthesis genes. Based on its phylogeny, ultrastructural characteristics and unique pigment suite, we describe RCC1774 as a novel species that we name Acaryochloris thomasi. Its very unusual pigment content compared to other Acaryochloris spp.

  • Prochlorophyta: a Sub-Class of Chlorophyta
    PROCHLOROPHYTA: A SUB-CLASS OF CHLOROPHYTA Prochlorophyta are a photosynthetic prokaryote members of the phytoplankton group Picoplankton. These oligotrophic organisms are abundant in nutrient-poor tropical waters and use a unique photosynthetic pigment, divinyl-chlorophyll, to absorb light and acquire energy. These organisms lack red and blue Phycobilin pigments and have staked thylakoids, both of which make them different from Cyanophyta. Prochlorophyta were initially discovered in 1975 near the Great Barrier Reef and off the coast of Mexico. The following year, Ralph A. Lewin, of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, assigned them as a new algal sub-class. Prochlorophytes are very small microbes generally between 0.2 and 2 µm (Photosynthetic picoplankton). They morphologically resemble Cyanobacteria, Members of Prochlorophyta have been found as coccoid (spherical) shapes, like Prochlorococcus, and as filaments, like Prochlorothrix. In addition to Prochlorophyta, other phytoplankton that lack Phycobilin pigments were later found in freshwater lakes in the Netherlands, by Tineke Burger-Wiersma. These organisms were termed Prochlorothrix. Prochloron (a marine symbiont) and Prochlorothrix (from freshwater plankton) contain chlorophylls a and b; Prochlorococcus (common in marine picoplankton) contains divinyl-chlorophylls a and b. In 1986, Prochlorococcus was discovered by Sallie W. Chisholm and his colleagues. These organisms might be responsible for a significant portion of the global primary production. Like cyanophytes they are all clearly photosynthetic prokaryotes, but since they contain no blue or red bilin pigment they were assigned to a new algal sub- class, the Prochlorophyta. However, since their possible phylogenetic relationships to ancestral green-plant chloroplasts have not received support from molecular biology, it now seems expedient to consider them as aberrant cyanophytes.

  • Deoxyribonucleic Acid Base Sequence Homologies of Some Budding and Prosthecate Bacterla RICHARD L
    JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY, Apr. 1972, p. 256-261 Vol. 110, No. 1 Copyright © 1972 American Society for Microbiology Printed in U.S.A. Deoxyribonucleic Acid Base Sequence Homologies of Some Budding and Prosthecate Bacterla RICHARD L. MOORE' AND PETER HIRSCH2 Department of Microbiology and Public Health, Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan 48823 Received for publication 21 December 1971 The genetic relatedness of a number of budding and prosthecate bacteria was determined by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) homology experiments of the di- rect binding type. Strains of Hyphomicrobium sp. isolated from aquatic habi- tats were found to have relatedness values ranging from 9 to 70% with strain "EA-617," a subculture of the Hyphomicrobium isolated by Mevius from river water. Strains obtained from soil enrichments had lower values with EA-617, ranging from 3 to 5%. Very little or no homology was detected between the amino acid-utilizing strain Hyphomicrobium neptunium and other Hyphomi- crobium strains, although significant homology was observed with the two Hyphomonas strains examined. No homology could be detected between pros- thecate bacteria of the genera Rhodomicrobium, Prosthecomicrobium, Ancal- omicrobium, or Caulobacter, and Hyphomicrobium strain EA-617 or H. nep- tunium LE-670. The grouping of Hyphomicrobium strains by their relatedness values agrees well with a grouping according to the base composition of their DNA species. It is concluded that bacteria possessing cellular extensions repre- sent a widely diverse group of organisms. Two genera of bacteria, Hyphomicrobium drum, P. pneumaticum, Ancalomicrobium adetum, and Rhodomicrobium, are listed under the and Caulobacter crescentus were obtained from J.

  • Biosynthesis of 2-Hydroxyisobutyric Acid (2-HIBA) from Renewable Carbon Thore Rohwerder*, Roland H Müller
    Rohwerder and Müller Microbial Cell Factories 2010, 9:13 http://www.microbialcellfactories.com/content/9/1/13 RESEARCH Open Access Biosynthesis of 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid (2-HIBA) from renewable carbon Thore Rohwerder*, Roland H Müller Abstract Nowadays a growing demand for green chemicals and cleantech solutions is motivating the industry to strive for bio- based building blocks. We have identified the tertiary carbon atom-containing 2-hydroxyisobutyric acid (2-HIBA) as an interesting building block for polymer synthesis. Starting from this carboxylic acid, practically all compounds posses- sing the isobutane structure are accessible by simple chemical conversions, e. g. the commodity methacrylic acid as well as isobutylene glycol and oxide. During recent years, biotechnological routes to 2-HIBA acid have been proposed and significant progress in elucidating the underlying biochemistry has been made. Besides biohydrolysis and biooxi- dation, now a bioisomerization reaction can be employed, converting the common metabolite 3-hydroxybutyric acid to 2-HIBA by a novel cobalamin-dependent CoA-carbonyl mutase. The latter reaction has recently been discovered in the course of elucidating the degradation pathway of the groundwater pollutant methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in the new bacterial species Aquincola tertiaricarbonis. This discovery opens the ground for developing a completely bio- technological process for producing 2-HIBA. The mutase enzyme has to be active in a suitable biological system pro- ducing 3-hydroxybutyryl-CoA, which is the precursor of the well-known bacterial bioplastic polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB). This connection to the PHB metabolism is a great advantage as its underlying biochemistry and physiology is well understood and can easily be adopted towards producing 2-HIBA.

    Antarctic Science page 1 of 15 (2020) © Antarctic Science Ltd 2020 doi:10.1017/S0954102020000243 Detection and community-level identification of microbial mats in the McMurdo Dry Valleys using drone-based hyperspectral reflectance imaging JOSEPH LEVY 1, S. CRAIG CARY 2, KURT JOY 2 and CHARLES K. LEE 2 1Colgate University, Department of Geology, Hamilton, NY 13346, USA 2International Centre for Terrestrial Antarctic Research, University of Waikato, Hamilton 3240, New Zealand [email protected] Abstract: The reflectance spectroscopic characteristics of cyanobacteria-dominated microbial mats in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) were measured using a hyperspectral point spectrometer aboard an unmanned aerial system (remotely piloted aircraft system, unmanned aerial vehicle or drone) to determine whether mat presence, type and activity could be mapped at a spatial scale sufficient to characterize inter-annual change. Mats near Howard Glacier and Canada Glacier (ASPA 131) were mapped and mat samples were collected for DNA-based microbiome analysis. Although a broadband spectral parameter (a partial normalized difference vegetation index) identified mats, it missed mats in comparatively deep (> 10 cm) water or on bouldery surfaces where mats occupied fringing moats. A hyperspectral parameter (B6) did not have these shortcomings and recorded a larger dynamic range at both sites. When linked with colour orthomosaic data, B6 band strength is shown to be capable of characterizing the presence, type and activity of cyanobacteria-dominated mats in and around MDV streams. 16S rRNA gene polymerase chain reaction amplicon sequencing analysis of the mat samples revealed that dominant cyanobacterial taxa differed between spectrally distinguishable mats, indicating that spectral differences reflect underlying biological distinctiveness.

Peter Greenberga,b,1 aIntegrative Microbiology Research Centre, South China Agricultural University, 510642 Guangzhou, People’s Republic of China; bDepartment of Microbiology, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195; and cDivision of Biological Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO 65211 Contributed by E. Peter Greenberg, June 12, 2018 (sent for review May 15, 2018; reviewed by Helen E. Blackwell and Clay Fuqua) Many species of Proteobacteria produce acyl-homoserine lactone predict whether a LuxI homolog is in the ACP- or CoA-dependent (AHL) compounds as quorum-sensing (QS) signals for cell density- family (11–13). We became interested in the α-Proteobacterium dependent gene regulation. Most known AHL synthases, LuxI-type Prosthecomicrobium hirschii when its genome sequence was pub- enzymes, produce fatty AHLs, and the fatty acid moiety is derived lished (14). This dimorphic prosthecate bacterium has genes coding from an acyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) intermediate in fatty acid for an AHL QS system, and we predicted the luxI homolog codes for biosynthesis. Recently, a class of LuxI homologs has been shown to a member of the CoA-utilizing family. P. hirschii is a saprophyte that use CoA-linked aromatic or amino acid substrates for AHL synthe- can be isolated from freshwater lakes (15) and exhibits two different sis. By using an informatics approach, we found the CoA class of cell morphologies. Some cells have multiple long prostheca, and LuxI homologs exists primarily in α-Proteobacteria.
