Clostridium ultunense is one of the most abundant syntrophic acetate-oxidising bacteria (SAOB) found in engineered biogas processes operating with high ammonia concentrations. It has been proven to oxidise acetate in cooperation with hydrogenotrophic methanogens. There is evidence that the Wood- Ljungdahl (WL) pathway plays an important role in acetate oxidation. In this study we analysed the physiological and metabolic capacities of C. ultunense on genome scale and conducted a comparative study of all known characterised SAOB, namely Syntrophaceticus schinkii, Thermacetogenium phaeum, Tepidanaerobacter acetatoxydans and Pseudothermotoga lettingae. -

An Integrated Study on Microbial Community in Anaerobic Digestion Systems
An Integrated Study on Microbial Community in Anaerobic Digestion Systems DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yueh-Fen Li Graduate Program in Environmental Science The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Zhongtang Yu, Advisor Dr. Brian Ahmer Dr. Richard Dick Dr. Olli Tuovinen Copyrighted by Yueh-Fen Li 2013 Abstract Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an attractive microbiological technology for both waste treatment and energy production. Microorganisms are the driving force for the whole transformation process in anaerobic digesters. However, the microbial community underpinning the AD process remains poorly understood, especially with respect to community composition and dynamics in response to variations in feedstocks and operations. The overall objective was to better understand the microbiology driving anaerobic digestion processes by systematically investigating the diversity, composition and succession of microbial communities, both bacterial and archaeal, in anaerobic digesters of different designs, fed different feedstocks, and operated under different conditions. The first two studies focused on propionate-degrading bacteria with an emphasis on syntrophic propionate-oxidizing bacteria. Propionate is one of the most important intermediates and has great influence on AD stability in AD systems because it is inhibitory to methanogens and it can only be metabolized through syntrophic propionate- oxidizing acetogenesis under methanogenic conditions. In the first study (chapter 3), primers specific to the propionate-CoA transferase gene (pct) were designed and used to construct clone libraries, which were sequenced and analyzed to investigate the diversity and distribution of propionate-utilizing bacteria present in the granular and the liquid portions of samples collected from four digesters of different designs, fed different ii feedstocks, and operated at different temperatures. -

Manzoor et al. Standards in Genomic Sciences (2015) 10:99 DOI 10.1186/s40793-015-0092-z SHORT GENOME REPORT Open Access Working draft genome sequence of the mesophilic acetate oxidizing bacterium Syntrophaceticus schinkii strain Sp3 Shahid Manzoor1,3, Bettina Müller2*, Adnan Niazi1, Anna Schnürer2 and Erik Bongcam-Rudloff1 Abstract Syntrophaceticus schinkii strain Sp3 is a mesophilic syntrophic acetate oxidizing bacterium, belonging to the Clostridia class within the phylum Firmicutes, originally isolated from a mesophilic methanogenic digester. It has been shown to oxidize acetate in co-cultivation with hydrogenotrophic methanogens forming methane. The draft genome shows a total size of 3,196,921 bp, encoding 3,688 open reading frames, which includes 3,445 predicted protein-encoding genes and 55 RNA genes. Here, we are presenting assembly and annotation features as well as basic genomic properties of the type strain Sp3.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS OF MICROBIAL SPECIES IN A METAGENOME BASED ON THEIR SIGNATURE SEQUENCES Pooja Yadav 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 August 2017 Committee: Xu, Zhaohui, Advisor Mckay, Robert Michael Roy, Sankardas Copyright c August 2017 Pooja Yadav All rights reserved iii ABSTRACT Xu, Zhaohui, Advisor Shotgun metagenomics has provided a relatively new and powerful approach to study the environmental samples to characterize the microbial communities in contrast to pure cultures by conventional techniques. To determine the microbial diversity and to understand the role of microbes in the ecosystem, quantitative studies are important whose values are comparable across different studies and samples. We have developed a statistical approach to microbial profiling which en-compasses quantitative characterization and comparison of relative abundance of the microbes in a metagenome sample based on their signature sequences (unique k-mers). We demonstrated the utility of this approach by characterizing and quantifying the relative abundance of the microbes in 4 different simulated metagenome samples (Comp_25, Comp_50, Comp_75, and Comp_100). The suffix of simulated metagenome’s name represents the gene content percentage of reporter species in the simulated metagenomes. The analysis of simulated metagenomes for data volume 6e9 and 6e10 furnish the information about the abundance of species by identifying the unique k-mers (signature sequences) of the six-reporter species B. licheniformis, L. brevis, L. fermentum, L. plantarum, P. ananatis, and P. vagans. Our developed approach has efficiently identified the abundance of 4 reporter species i.e. -

Abstract Today’s main energy sources are the fossil fuels petroleum, coal and natural gas, which are depleting rapidly and are major contributors to global warming. Methane is produced during anaerobic biodegradation of wastes and residues and can serve as an alternative energy source with reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In the anaerobic biodegradation process acetate is a major precursor and degradation can occur through two different pathways: aceticlastic methanogenesis and syntrophic acetate oxidation combined with hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis. Bioinformatics is critical for modern biological research, because different bioinformatics approaches, such as genome sequencing, de novo assembly -
Draft Genome Sequence of Dethiosulfovibrio Salsuginis DSM
Díaz-Cárdenas et al. Standards in Genomic Sciences (2017) 12:86 DOI 10.1186/s40793-017-0303-x EXTENDEDGENOMEREPORT Open Access Draft genome sequence of Dethiosulfovibrio salsuginis DSM 21565T an anaerobic, slightly halophilic bacterium isolated from a Colombian saline spring Carolina Díaz-Cárdenas1, Gina López1, José David Alzate-Ocampo2, Laura N. González2, Nicole Shapiro3, Tanja Woyke3, Nikos C. Kyrpides3, Silvia Restrepo2 and Sandra Baena1* Abstract A bacterium belonging to the phylum Synergistetes, genus Dethiosulfovibrio was isolated in 2007 from a saline spring in Colombia. Dethiosulfovibrio salsuginis USBA 82T (DSM 21565T= KCTC 5659T) is a mesophilic, strictly anaerobic, slightly halophilic, Gram negative bacterium with a diderm cell envelope. The strain ferments peptides, amino acids and a few organic acids. Here we present the description of the complete genome sequencing and annotation of the type species Dethiosulfovibrio salsuginis USBA 82T. The genome consisted of 2.68 Mbp with a 53. 7% G + C. A total of 2609 genes were predicted and of those, 2543 were protein coding genes and 66 were RNA genes. We detected in USBA 82T genome six Synergistetes conserved signature indels (CSIs), specific for Jonquetella, Pyramidobacter and Dethiosulfovibrio. The genome of D. salsuginis contained, as expected, genes related to amino acid transport, amino acid metabolism and thiosulfate reduction. These genes represent the major gene groups of Synergistetes, related with their phenotypic traits, and interestingly, 11.8% of the genes in the genome belonged to the amino acid fermentation COG category. In addition, we identified in the genome some ammonification genes such as nitrate reductase genes. The presence of proline operon genes could be related to de novo synthesis of proline to protect the cell in response to high osmolarity. -
