Ward1, Chloé-Rose Colombero1, David T. Johnston1 3 4 1Department of Earth and Planetary Science, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138 5 *Correspondence to KMS: [email protected] 6 7 Abstract 8 The ability of aerobic microorganisms to regulate internal and external concentrations of the 9 reactive oxygen species (ROS) superoxide directly influences the health and viability of cells. 10 Superoxide dismutases (SODs) are the primary regulatory enzymes that are used by 11 microorganisms to degrade superoxide. SOD is not one, but three separate, non-homologous 12 enzymes that perform the same function. Thus, the evolutionary history of genes encoding for 13 different SOD enzymes is one of convergent evolution, which reflects environmental selection 14 brought about by an oxygenated atmosphere, changes in metal availability, and opportunistic 15 horizontal gene transfer (HGT). In this study we examine the phylogenetic history of the protein 16 sequence encoding for the nickel-binding metalloform of the SOD enzyme (SodN). A comparison 17 of organismal and SodN protein phylogenetic trees reveals several instances of HGT, including 18 multiple inter-domain transfers of the sodN gene from the bacterial domain to the archaeal domain.

Accepted 9 January, 2013 Actinomycetes were isolated by plating of serially diluted samples onto humic acid-vitamin agar prepared with or without NaCl and characterized by physiological and phylogenetical studies. A total of 16 strains were isolated from hypersaline soil in Mongolia. All strains showed alkaliphilic characteristics and were able to abundantly grow in media with pH 9.0. Six strains were halotolerant actinomycetes (0 to 12.0% NaCl) and 10 strains were moderately halophiles (3.0 to 12.0% NaCl). Most strains required moderately high salt (5.0 to 10.0%) for optimal growth but were able to grow at lower NaCl concentrations. Among the 16 strains, 5 were able to grow at 45°C.

Prof. Ondřej Uhlík, Ph.D. Esame finale anno 2015 Abstract The investigation of phylogenetic diversity and functionality of complex microbial communities in relation to changes in the environmental conditions represents a major challenge of microbial ecology research. Nowadays, particular attention is paid to microbial communities occurring at environmental sites contaminated by recalcitrant and toxic organic compounds. Extended research has evidenced that such communities evolve some metabolic abilities leading to the partial degradation or complete mineralization of the contaminants. Determination of such biodegradation potential can be the starting point for the development of cost effective biotechnological processes for the bioremediation of contaminated matrices. This work showed how metagenomics-based microbial ecology investigations supported the choice or the development of three different bioremediation strategies. First, PCR-DGGE and PCR-cloning approaches served the molecular characterization of microbial communities enriched through sequential development stages of an aerobic cometabolic process for the treatment of groundwater

  • Actinobacterial Diversity in Atacama Desert Habitats As a Road Map to Biodiscovery
    Actinobacterial Diversity in Atacama Desert Habitats as a Road Map to Biodiscovery A thesis submitted by Hamidah Idris for the award of Doctor of Philosophy July 2016 School of Biology, Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering, Newcastle University, Newcastle Upon Tyne, United Kingdom Abstract The Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, the oldest and driest nonpolar desert on the planet, is known to harbour previously undiscovered actinobacterial taxa with the capacity to synthesize novel natural products. In the present study, culture-dependent and culture- independent methods were used to further our understanding of the extent of actinobacterial diversity in Atacama Desert habitats. The culture-dependent studies focused on the selective isolation, screening and dereplication of actinobacteria from high altitude soils from Cerro Chajnantor. Several strains, notably isolates designated H9 and H45, were found to produce new specialized metabolites. Isolate H45 synthesized six novel metabolites, lentzeosides A-F, some of which inhibited HIV-1 integrase activity. Polyphasic taxonomic studies on isolates H45 and H9 showed that they represented new species of the genera Lentzea and Streptomyces, respectively; it is proposed that these strains be designated as Lentzea chajnantorensis sp. nov. and Streptomyces aridus sp. nov.. Additional isolates from sampling sites on Cerro Chajnantor were considered to be nuclei of novel species of Actinomadura, Amycolatopsis, Cryptosporangium and Pseudonocardia. A majority of the isolates produced bioactive compounds that inhibited the growth of one or more strains from a panel of six wild type microorganisms while those screened against Bacillus subtilis reporter strains inhibited sporulation and cell envelope, cell wall, DNA and fatty acid synthesis.

An amplified rRNA restriction analysis confirmed that these actinomycetes are distinct from Frankia, a finding substantiated by a 16S rRNA gene phylogenetic analysis of two of the Mexican isolates. Further support for these actinomycetes being separate from Frankia comes from the very low DNA-DNA homology that was found. Nevertheless, the Mexican isolates may be diazotrophs based not only on their ability to grow in N-free medium and reduce acetylene to ethylene but also on the results from 15N isotope dilution analysis and the finding that a nifH gene was PCR amplified.
