  • Gene Duplication Drives Genome Expansion in a Major Lineage of Thaumarchaeota

Sheridan 1,2, Sebastien Raguideau3, Christopher Quince3,4,5, Jennifer Holden6, Lihong Zhang 7, ✉ Thames Consortium*, Tom A. Williams 2 & Cécile Gubry-Rangin 1 Ammonia-oxidising archaea of the phylum Thaumarchaeota are important organisms in the nitrogen cycle, but the mechanisms driving their radiation into diverse ecosystems remain 1234567890():,; underexplored. Here, existing thaumarchaeotal genomes are complemented with 12 genomes belonging to the previously under-sampled Nitrososphaerales to investigate the impact of lateral gene transfer (LGT), gene duplication and loss across thaumarchaeotal evolution. We reveal a major role for gene duplication in driving genome expansion subsequent to early LGT. In particular, two large LGT events are identified into Nitrososphaerales and the fate of these gene families is highly lineage-specific, being lost in some descendant lineages, but undergoing extensive duplication in others, suggesting niche-specific roles. Notably, some genes involved in carbohydrate transport or coenzyme metabolism were duplicated, likely facilitating niche specialisation in soils and sediments. Overall, our results suggest that LGT followed by gene duplication drives Nitrososphaerales evolution, highlighting a previously under-appreciated mechanism of genome expansion in archaea. 1 School of Biological Sciences, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, UK. 2 School of Biological Sciences, University of Bristol, Bristol, UK. 3 Warwick Medical School, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK. 4 Organisms and Ecosystems, Earlham Institute, Norwich, UK. 5 Gut Microbes and Health, Quadram Institute, Norwich, UK. 6 School of Life Sciences, University of Warwick, Coventry, UK. 7 European Centre for Environment and Human Health, Medical School, ✉ University of Exeter, Exeter, UK.

Read Full License Page 1/17 Abstract Purpose: Both ammonia oxidizing archaea (AOA) and bacteria (AOB) perform the ammonia oxidation together. These two kinds of microbes present a convenient model for studying niche specialization. To date, few surveys concentrated on the inuence of oxygen concentration on niche specialization of AOA and AOB in intertidal zones. Methods: Here, high-throughput sequencing by Illumina MiSeq and qPCR were applied to detect the change of abundance, diversity as well as community structure of both AOA and AOB with 0-60 cm sediments depth in the intertidal zone in Qingdao. Results and Conclusion: The AOA/AOB amoA gene copy numbers and AOA/AOB OTU numbers were all increased as sediment depth went deeper, which indicated that AOA were more adaptive to oxygen-limited niches compared to AOB and oxygen indeed led to the niche specialization of AOA and AOB in intertidal sediments.

Currently, mesophilic nitrogen-removing microbes eliminate nitrogen from wastewaters. Although thermophilic nitrifiers have been separately enriched from natural environments, no bioreactors are described that couple these processes for the treatment of nitrogen in hot wastewaters. Samples from composting facilities were used as inoculum for the batch-wise enrichment of thermophilic nitrifiers (350 days). Subsequently, the enrichments were transferred to a bioreactor to obtain a stable, high-rate nitrifying process (560 days). The community contained up to 17% ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOAs) closely related to ‘Candidatus Nitrososphaera gargensis’, and 25% nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOBs) related to Nitrospira calida.

Initially classified as ‘mesophilic Crenarchaeota’, discovery of homologs of ammonia monooxygenase genes comparative genomics has recently revealed that they form a in archaea [5–7] and the cultivation of autotrophic ammo- separate and deep-branching phylum within the Archaea. This nia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) [8–11] revealed that an novel phylum comprises in 16S rRNA gene trees not only all additional group of microorganisms is able to catalyze known archaeal ammonia oxidizers but also several clusters of this process. The widespread distribution of putative environmental sequences representing microorganisms with archaeal ammonia monooxygenase (amo) genes and their unknown energy metabolism. Ecophysiological studies of numerical dominance over their bacterial counterparts in ammonia-oxidizing Thaumarchaeota suggest adaptation to most marine and terrestrial environments suggested that low ammonia concentrations and an autotrophic or possibly AOA play a major role in global nitrification [12–15], but mixotrophic lifestyle. Extrapolating from the wide substrate our understanding of their evolutionary history and meta- range of copper-containing membrane-bound bolic repertoire is still in its infancy. monooxygenases, to which the thaumarchaeal ammonia monooxygenases

  • Nitrifying Bacteria Mediate Aerobic Ammonia Oxidation and Urea Hydrolysis Within the Grand River
    Vol. 73: 151–162, 2014 AQUATIC MICROBIAL ECOLOGY Published online October 2 doi: 10.3354/ame01712 Aquat Microb Ecol FREE ACCESS Nitrifying bacteria mediate aerobic ammonia oxidation and urea hydrolysis within the Grand River Puntipar Sonthiphand, Josh D. Neufeld* Department of Biology, University of Waterloo, 200 University Avenue West, Waterloo, Ontario N2L 3G1, Canada ABSTRACT: Ammonia oxidation is an important process for decreasing ammonia concentrations in wastewater-impacted rivers. Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA) are re - sponsible for ammonia oxidation, which is the first step of the nitrification process. Nitrification and urea hydrolysis were monitored in sediment and water column samples in the Grand River (Ontario), and nitrification inhibitors (allylthiourea and 2-phenyl-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline- 1-oxyl 3-oxide) helped identify the relative contributions of AOA and AOB to ammonia oxidation. Despite the presence of AOA, our results implicated AOB as the dominant contributors to ammo- nia oxidation, both directly and in association with urea hydrolysis. KEY WORDS: Nitrification activity · Ammonia oxidizing bacteria · Ammonia oxidizing archaea · PTIO · ATU Resale or republication not permitted without written consent of the publisher INTRODUCTION demonstrated that AOB are more abundant and active than AOA in inorganic fertilized soils (Jia & Nitrification is composed of 2 oxidative processes.

Systems treated with The first step is ammonia oxidation to nitrite under organic fertilizer (i.e. urea and animal urine sub- oxic conditions, which is mediated by ammonia- strate) are also dominated by AOB (Di et al. 2009, oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA).
