Association Between the Gut Microbiota and Blood Pressure in a Population Cohort of 6953 Individuals

Niiranen , MD, PhD BACKGROUND: Several small-scale animal studies have suggested that gut microbiota and blood pressure (BP) are linked. However, results from human studies remain scarce and conflicting. We wanted to elucidate the multivariable-adjusted as- sociation between gut metagenome and BP in a large, representative, well-phenotyped population sample. We performed a focused analysis to examine the previously reported inverse associations between sodium intake and Lactobacillus abun- dance and between Lactobacillus abundance and BP. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied a population sample of 6953 Finns aged 25 to 74 years (mean age, 49.2±12.9 years; 54.9% women). The participants underwent a health examination, which included BP measurement, stool collection, and 24-hour urine sampling (N=829). Gut microbiota was analyzed using shallow shotgun metagenome sequencing. In age- and sex-adjusted models, the α (within-sample) and β (between-sample) diversities of taxonomic composition were strongly re- lated to BP indexes (P<0.001 for most). In multivariable-adjusted models, β diversity was only associated with diastolic BP (P=0.032). -

Introduction RNase I preferentially degrades single-stranded RNA to individual nucleoside 3′ monophosphates by cleaving every phosphodiester bond.1 By comparison, other ribonucleases cleave only after specific residues (e.g., RNase A cleaves 3′ to pyrimidine residues). Thus, RNase I is useful for removing RNA from DNA preparations,2 detecting mismatches in RNA:RNA and RNA:DNA hybrids2,3 and analysing and quantifying RNA in ribonuclease -

Dissimilation of Cysteate Via 3-Sulfolactate Sulfo-Lyase and a Sulfate Exporter in Paracoccus Pantotrophus NKNCYSA
Microbiology (2005), 151, 737–747 DOI 10.1099/mic.0.27548-0 Dissimilation of cysteate via 3-sulfolactate sulfo-lyase and a sulfate exporter in Paracoccus pantotrophus NKNCYSA Ulrike Rein,1 Ronnie Gueta,1 Karin Denger,1 Ju¨rgen Ruff,1 Klaus Hollemeyer2 and Alasdair M. Cook1 Correspondence 1Department of Biology, The University, D-78457 Konstanz, Germany Alasdair Cook 2Institute of Biochemical Engineering, Saarland University, Box 50 11 50, D-66041 [email protected] Saarbru¨cken, Germany Paracoccus pantotrophus NKNCYSA utilizes (R)-cysteate (2-amino-3-sulfopropionate) as a sole source of carbon and energy for growth, with either nitrate or molecular oxygen as terminal electron acceptor, and the specific utilization rate of cysteate is about 2 mkat (kg protein)”1. The initial degradative reaction is catalysed by an (R)-cysteate : 2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase, which yields 3-sulfopyruvate. The latter was reduced to 3-sulfolactate by an NAD-linked sulfolactate dehydrogenase [3?3 mkat (kg protein)”1]. The inducible desulfonation reaction was not detected initially in cell extracts. However, a strongly induced protein with subunits of 8 kDa (a) and 42 kDa (b) was found and purified. The corresponding genes had similarities to those encoding altronate dehydratases, which often require iron for activity. The purified enzyme could then be shown to convert 3-sulfolactate to sulfite and pyruvate and it was termed sulfolactate sulfo-lyase (Suy). A high level of sulfite dehydrogenase was also induced during growth with cysteate, and the organism excreted sulfate. A putative regulator, OrfR, was encoded upstream of suyAB on the reverse strand. Downstream of suyAB was suyZ, which was cotranscribed with suyB. -
Biochemical Characterization of Homing Endonucleases Encoded By
Biochemical characterization of homing endonucleases encoded by fungal mitochondrial genomes By Tuhin Kumar Guha A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of the University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of: DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Microbiology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2016 by Tuhin Kumar Guha I Abstract The small ribosomal subunit gene of the Chaetomium thermophilum DSM 1495 is invaded by a nested intron at position mS1247, which is composed of a group I intron encoding a LAGLIDADG open reading frame interrupted by an internal group II intron. The first objective was to examine if splicing of the internal intron could reconstitute the coding regions and facilitate the expression of an active homing endonuclease. Using in vitro transcription assays, the group II intron was shown to self-splice only under high salt concentration. Both in vitro endonuclease and cleavage mapping assays suggested that the nested intron encodes an active homing endonuclease which cleaves near the intron insertion site. This composite arrangement hinted that the group II intron could be regulatory with regards to the expression of the homing endonuclease. Constructs were generated where the codon-optimized open reading frame was interrupted with group IIA1 or IIB introns. The concentration of the magnesium in the media sufficient for splicing was determined by the Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction analyses from the bacterial cells grown under various magnesium concentrations. Further, the in vivo endonuclease assay showed that magnesium chloride stimulated the expression of a functional protein but the addition of cobalt chloride to the growth media antagonized the expression. -

Although many correlations have been described, specific mechanistic links between these changes and glucose homeostasis remain to be defined. Here we show that blood and intestinal levels of the microbiota-produced N-formyl peptide, formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLF), are elevated in high fat diet (HFD)- induced obese mice. Genetic or pharmacological inhibition of the N-formyl peptide receptor Fpr1 leads to increased insulin levels and improved glucose tolerance, dependent upon glucagon- like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Obese Fpr1-knockout (Fpr1-KO) mice also display an altered microbiome, exemplifying the dynamic relationship between host metabolism and microbiota. -
