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.

  • Genes for Degradation and Utilization of Uronic Acid-Containing Polysaccharides of a Marine Bacterium Catenovulum Sp
    Genes for degradation and utilization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides of a marine bacterium Catenovulum sp. CCB-QB4 Go Furusawa, Nor Azura Azami and Aik-Hong Teh Centre for Chemical Biology, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Bayan Lepas, Penang, Malaysia ABSTRACT Background. Oligosaccharides from polysaccharides containing uronic acids are known to have many useful bioactivities. Thus, polysaccharide lyases (PLs) and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) involved in producing the oligosaccharides have attracted interest in both medical and industrial settings. The numerous polysaccharide lyases and glycoside hydrolases involved in producing the oligosaccharides were isolated from soil and marine microorganisms. Our previous report demonstrated that an agar-degrading bacterium, Catenovulum sp. CCB-QB4, isolated from a coastal area of Penang, Malaysia, possessed 183 glycoside hydrolases and 43 polysaccharide lyases in the genome. We expected that the strain might degrade and use uronic acid-containing polysaccharides as a carbon source, indicating that the strain has a potential for a source of novel genes for degrading the polysaccharides. Methods. To confirm the expectation, the QB4 cells were cultured in artificial seawater media with uronic acid-containing polysaccharides, namely alginate, pectin (and saturated galacturonate), ulvan, and gellan gum, and the growth was observed. The genes involved in degradation and utilization of uronic acid-containing polysaccharides were explored in the QB4 genome using CAZy analysis and BlastP analysis. Results. The QB4 cells were capable of using these polysaccharides as a carbon source, and especially, the cells exhibited a robust growth in the presence of alginate. 28 PLs and 22 GHs related to the degradation of these polysaccharides were found in Submitted 5 August 2020 the QB4 genome based on the CAZy database.

  • Invasive Escherichia Colito Exposure to Bile Salts
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Metabolic adaptation of adherent- invasive Escherichia coli to exposure to bile salts Received: 7 August 2018 Julien Delmas 1,2, Lucie Gibold1,2, Tiphanie Faïs1,2, Sylvine Batista1, Martin Leremboure4, Accepted: 13 December 2018 Clara Sinel3, Emilie Vazeille2,5, Vincent Cattoir3, Anthony Buisson2,5, Nicolas Barnich2,6, Published: xx xx xxxx Guillaume Dalmasso 2 & Richard Bonnet1,2 The adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC), which colonize the ileal mucosa of Crohn’s disease patients, adhere to intestinal epithelial cells, invade them and exacerbate intestinal infammation. The high nutrient competition between the commensal microbiota and AIEC pathobiont requires the latter to occupy their own metabolic niches to survive and proliferate within the gut. In this study, a global RNA sequencing of AIEC strain LF82 has been used to observe the impact of bile salts on the expression of metabolic genes. The results showed a global up-regulation of genes involved in degradation and a down-regulation of those implicated in biosynthesis. The main up-regulated degradation pathways were ethanolamine, 1,2-propanediol and citrate utilization, as well as the methyl-citrate pathway. Our study reveals that ethanolamine utilization bestows a competitive advantage of AIEC strains that are metabolically capable of its degradation in the presence of bile salts. We observed that bile salts activated secondary metabolism pathways that communicate to provide an energy beneft to AIEC. Bile salts may be used by AIEC as an environmental signal to promote their colonization. Te adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) pathogroup was initially characterized in isolates from the ileal mucosa of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients1–5.

  • Modeling and Computational Prediction of Metabolic Channelling
    MODELING AND COMPUTATIONAL PREDICTION OF METABOLIC CHANNELLING by Christopher Morran Sanford A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto © Copyright by Christopher Morran Sanford 2009 Abstract MODELING AND COMPUTATIONAL PREDICTION OF METABOLIC CHANNELLING Master of Science 2009 Christopher Morran Sanford Graduate Department of Molecular Genetics University of Toronto Metabolic channelling occurs when two enzymes that act on a common substrate pass that intermediate directly from one active site to the next without allowing it to diffuse into the surrounding aqueous medium. In this study, properties of channelling are investigated through the use of computational models and cell simulation tools. The effects of enzyme kinetics and thermodynamics on channelling are explored with the emphasis on validating the hypothesized roles of metabolic channelling in living cells. These simulations identify situations in which channelling can induce acceleration of reaction velocities and reduction in the free concentration of intermediate metabolites. Databases of biological information, including metabolic, thermodynamic, toxicity, inhibitory, gene fusion and physical protein interaction data are used to predict examples of potentially channelled enzyme pairs. The predictions are used both to support the hypothesized evolutionary motivations for channelling, and to propose potential enzyme interactions that may be worthy of future investigation. ii Acknowledgements I wish to thank my supervisor Dr. John Parkinson for the guidance he has provided during my time spent in his lab, as well as for his extensive help in the writing of this thesis.

Whole genome sequence analysis of the isolated soft-rotten plant pathogen Dickeya sp. WS52, revealed various coding genes which involved in vegetable stalk degradation-related properties. A total of 122 genes were found to be encoded for putative carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZy) in Dickeya sp. WS52. The number of pectin degradation-related genes, was higher than that of cellulolytic bacteria as well as other Dickeya spp.
