The bacterial cytoskeleton: more than twisted filaments Martin Pilhofer* and Grant J. Jensen Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Division of Biology, California Institute of Technology, 1200 E California Blvd, M/C 114-96, Pasadena, CA, USA Abstract Far from being simple “bags” of enzymes, bacteria are richly endowed with ultrastructures that challenge and expand standard definitions of the cytoskeleton. Here we review rods, rings, twisted pairs, tubes, sheets, spirals, moving patches, meshes and composites, and suggest defining the term “bacterial cytoskeleton” as all cytoplasmic protein filaments and their superstructures that move or scaffold (stabilize/position/recruit) other cellular materials. The evolution of each superstructure has been driven by specific functional requirements. As a result, while homologous proteins with different functions have evolved to form surprisingly divergent superstructures, those of unrelated proteins with similar functions have converged. Defining the bacterial cytoskeleton The word “skeleton” is defined as the basic frame or supporting structure of an object. The term “cytoskeleton” was coined after a network of long, skinny, cell-shape-determining structures was discovered in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. These structures were later found to consist of actin, tubulin and intermediate filament (IF) proteins that move objects through their own growth and disassembly, act as stationary tracks for auxiliary motors, and/ or serve as connectors and scaffolds to position and stabilize other materials.

We applied shotgun metagenomics to rumen contents from six moose to obtain insights into this microbiome. Following binning, 99 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) belonging to 11 prokaryotic phyla were reconstructed and characterized based on phylogeny and CAZyme profile. The taxonomy of these MAGs reflected the overall composition of the metagenome, with dominance of the phyla Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes.

Expanding the Chlamydiae tree. Insights into genome diversity and evolution. Digital Comprehensive Summaries of Uppsala Dissertations from the Faculty of Science and Technology 2040. 87 pp. Uppsala: Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. ISBN 978-91-513-1203-3. Chlamydiae is a phylum of obligate intracellular bacteria. They have a conserved lifecycle and infect eukaryotic hosts, ranging from animals to amoeba. Chlamydiae includes pathogens, and is well-studied from a medical perspective. However, the vast majority of chlamydiae diversity exists in environmental samples as part of the uncultivated microbial majority. Exploration of microbial diversity in anoxic deep marine sediments revealed diverse chlamydiae with high relative abundances. Using genome-resolved metagenomics various marine sediment chlamydiae genomes were obtained, which significantly expanded genomic sampling of Chlamydiae diversity. These genomes formed several new clades in phylogenomic analyses, and included Chlamydiaceae relatives. Despite endosymbiosis-associated genomic features, hosts were not identified, suggesting chlamydiae with alternate lifestyles. Genomic investigation of Anoxychlamydiales, newly described here, uncovered genes for hydrogen metabolism and anaerobiosis, suggesting they engage in syntrophic interactions.

This challenge is most serious in tribe Caryophylleae since the supposed genera seem to be highly artificial, and the available morphological evidence cannot effectively be used for delimitation and exact determination of taxa. The main goal of the present study was to re-assess the monophyly of the genera currently recognized in this tribe using molecular phylogenetic data. We used the sequences of nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the chloroplast gene rps16 for 135 and 94 accessions, respectively, representing all 16 genera currently recognized in the tribe Caryophylleae, with a rich sampling of Gypsophila as one of the most heterogeneous groups in the tribe.

We compared the phylogenetic diversity of 22 marine and freshwater microorganisms and identified specific lineages exhibiting notably high or 23 low similarity between marine and freshwater ecosystems using a meta-analysis of 16S rRNA 24 gene tag-sequencing datasets. As expected, marine and freshwater microbial communities 25 differed in the relative abundance of major phyla and contained habitat-specific lineages; at the 26 same time, however, many shared taxa were observed in both environments. 27 Betaproteobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria sequences had the highest similarity between 28 marine and freshwater sample pairs.

We see that the recently proposed genera Neoapodemia Trujano, 2018 and Plesioarida Trujano & García, 2018 are closely allied with Apodemia C. & R. Felder, [1865] and are better viewed as its subgenera, new status. Overall, Emesis Fabricius, 1807 and Apodemia (even after inclusion of the two subgenera) are so phylogenetically close that several species have been previously swapped between these two genera. New combinations are: Apodemia (Neoapodemia) zela (Butler, 1870), Apodemia (Neoapodemia) ares (Edwards, 1882), and Apodemia (Neoapodemia) arnacis (Stichel, 1928) (not Emesis); and Emesis phyciodoides (Barnes & Benjamin, 1924) (not Apodemia), assigned to each genus by their monophyly in genomic trees with the type species (TS) of the genus.
