Tapping into the Hidden Biotechnological Potential through Metagenomics 5. Unexplored Frontiers and Future Prospects Acknowledgements Glossary Bibliography Biographical Sketches Summary Over the past few decades the extremes at which life thrives has continued to challenge our understanding of biochemistry, biology and evolution. As more new extremophiles are brought into laboratory culture, they have provided a multitude of new potential applications for biotechnology. Furthermore, more recently, innovative culturing approaches, environmental genome sequencing and whole genome sequencing have provided new opportunities for biotechnological exploration of extremophiles. 1. Introduction Organisms that live at the extremes of pH (>pH 8.5,< pH 5.0), temperature (>45°C, <15°C), pressure (>500 atm), salinity (>1.0M NaCl) and in high concentrations of recalcitrant substances or heavy metals (extremophiles) represent one of the last frontiers for biotechnological and industrial discovery.

The interactions of microbial communities in these environments are highly complex and still poorly understood. This work aimed to assess publicly available metagenomes from oil reservoirs and implement a robust pipeline of genome-resolved metagenomics to decipher metabolic and taxonomic profiles of petroleum reservoirs worldwide. Analysis of 301.2 Gb of metagenomic information derived from heavily flooded petroleum reservoirs in China and Alaska to non-flooded petroleum reservoirs in Brazil enabled us to reconstruct 148 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of high and medium quality. At the phylum level, 74% of MAGs belonged to bacteria and 26% to archaea. The profiles of these MAGs were related to the physicochemical parameters and recovery management applied.

  • Developing a Genetic Manipulation System for the Antarctic Archaeon, Halorubrum Lacusprofundi: Investigating Acetamidase Gene Function
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Developing a genetic manipulation system for the Antarctic archaeon, Halorubrum lacusprofundi: Received: 27 May 2016 Accepted: 16 September 2016 investigating acetamidase gene Published: 06 October 2016 function Y. Liao1, T. J. Williams1, J. C. Walsh2,3, M. Ji1, A. Poljak4, P. M. G. Curmi2, I. G. Duggin3 & R. Cavicchioli1 No systems have been reported for genetic manipulation of cold-adapted Archaea. Halorubrum lacusprofundi is an important member of Deep Lake, Antarctica (~10% of the population), and is amendable to laboratory cultivation. Here we report the development of a shuttle-vector and targeted gene-knockout system for this species. To investigate the function of acetamidase/formamidase genes, a class of genes not experimentally studied in Archaea, the acetamidase gene, amd3, was disrupted. The wild-type grew on acetamide as a sole source of carbon and nitrogen, but the mutant did not. Acetamidase/formamidase genes were found to form three distinct clades within a broad distribution of Archaea and Bacteria. Genes were present within lineages characterized by aerobic growth in low nutrient environments (e.g. haloarchaea, Starkeya) but absent from lineages containing anaerobes or facultative anaerobes (e.g. methanogens, Epsilonproteobacteria) or parasites of animals and plants (e.g. Chlamydiae). While acetamide is not a well characterized natural substrate, the build-up of plastic pollutants in the environment provides a potential source of introduced acetamide. In view of the extent and pattern of distribution of acetamidase/formamidase sequences within Archaea and Bacteria, we speculate that acetamide from plastics may promote the selection of amd/fmd genes in an increasing number of environmental microorganisms.

  • Heat Resistant Thermophilic Endospores in Cold Estuarine Sediments
    Heat resistant thermophilic endospores in cold estuarine sediments Emma Bell Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Civil Engineering and Geosciences Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering February 2016 Abstract Microbial biogeography explores the spatial and temporal distribution of microorganisms at multiple scales and is influenced by environmental selection and passive dispersal. Understanding the relative contribution of these factors can be challenging as their effects can be difficult to differentiate. Dormant thermophilic endospores in cold sediments offer a natural model for studies focusing on passive dispersal. Understanding distributions of these endospores is not confounded by the influence of environmental selection; rather their occurrence is due exclusively to passive transport. Sediment heating experiments were designed to investigate the dispersal histories of various thermophilic spore-forming Firmicutes in the River Tyne, a tidal estuary in North East England linking inland tributaries with the North Sea. Microcosm incubations at 50-80°C were monitored for sulfate reduction and enriched bacterial populations were characterised using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, functional gene clone libraries and high-throughput sequencing. The distribution of thermophilic endospores among different locations along the estuary was spatially variable, indicating that dispersal vectors originating in both warm terrestrial and marine habitats contribute to microbial diversity in estuarine and marine environments. In addition to their persistence in cold sediments, some endospores displayed a remarkable heat-resistance surviving multiple rounds of autoclaving. These extremely heat-resistant endospores are genetically similar to those detected in deep subsurface environments, including geothermal groundwater investigated from a nearby terrestrial borehole drilled to >1800 m depth with bottom temperatures in excess of 70°C.

    EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES ON FERMENTATIVE FIRMICUTES FROM ANOXIC ENVIRONMENTS: ISOLATION, EVOLUTION, AND THEIR GEOCHEMICAL IMPACTS By JESSICA KEE EUN CHOI A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Microbial Biology Written under the direction of Nathan Yee And approved by _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Experimental studies on fermentative Firmicutes from anoxic environments: isolation, evolution and their geochemical impacts by JESSICA KEE EUN CHOI Dissertation director: Nathan Yee Fermentative microorganisms from the bacterial phylum Firmicutes are quite ubiquitous in subsurface environments and play an important biogeochemical role. For instance, fermenters have the ability to take complex molecules and break them into simpler compounds that serve as growth substrates for other organisms. The research presented here focuses on two groups of fermentative Firmicutes, one from the genus Clostridium and the other from the class Negativicutes. Clostridium species are well-known fermenters. Laboratory studies done so far have also displayed the capability to reduce Fe(III), yet the mechanism of this activity has not been investigated
