This method was used for a I detailed study of the enynnology of the overall reaction (viz. acetyl phosphate to pyruvate) catalysed by I pyruvate synthase in Clostridium sporogenes. The same method could be utilised to harness such reductive I carboxylations for commercial biotransformations of xenobiotics. By adjusting the reaction conditions it was possible to alter the proportions of the products synthesised, and to synthesise compounds more reduced and/or with a greater number of carbon atoms than pyruvate. INTRODUCTION ! The proteolytic clostridia have been the subject of renewed interest, with the attention being focussed upon biotechnologically useful enyzmes that these I organisms produce. Apart from extracellular hydrolases, most notable are enoate [I-41, nitroaryl [5],linoleate [6],2-oxoacid [7], proline [8] and glycine reductases [9]. Recent investigations in this laboratory have concentrated upon Clostridiunz sporo- 1 genes[lO-171.

  • 1 Studies on 3-Hydroxypropionate Metabolism in Rhodobacter
    Studies on 3-Hydroxypropionate Metabolism in Rhodobacter sphaeroides Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Steven Joseph Carlson Graduate Program in Microbiology The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Dr. Birgit E. Alber, Advisor Dr. F. Robert Tabita Dr. Venkat Gopalan Dr. Joseph A. Krzycki 1 Copyrighted by Steven Joseph Carlson 2018 2 Abstract In this work, the involvement of multiple biochemical pathways used by the metabolically versatile Rhodobacter sphaeroides to assimilate 3-hydroxypropionate was investigated. In Chapter 2, evidence of a 3-hydroxypropionate oxidative path is presented. The mutant RspdhAa2SJC was isolated which lacks pyruvate dehydrogenase activity and is unable to grow with pyruvate. Robust 3-hydropropionate growth with RspdhAa2SJC indicated an alternative mechanism exists to maintain the acetyl-CoA pool. Further, RsdddCMA4, lacking the gene encoding a possible malonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, was inhibited for growth with 3-hydroxypropionate providing support for a 3-hydroxypropionate oxidative pathway which involves conversion of malonate semialdehyde to acetyl-CoA. We propose that the 3- hydroxypropionate growth of RspdhAa2SJC is due to the oxidative conversion of 3- hydroxypropionate to acetyl-CoA. In Chapter 3, the involvement of the ethylmalonyl-CoA pathway (EMCP) during growth with 3-hydroxypropionate was studied. Phenotypic analysis of mutants of the EMCP resulted in varying degrees of 3-hydroxypropionate growth. Specifically, a mutant lacking crotonyl-CoA carboxylase/reductase grew similar to wild type with 3- hydroxypropionate. However, mutants lacking subsequent enzymes in the EMCP exhibited 3-hydroxypropionate growth defects that became progressively more severe the ii later the enzyme participated in the EMCP.

The ecology of this pathogen outside its human host is largely unknown and one third of its annotated genes are still hypothetical. To identify genetic determinants expressed under a variety of environmental factors, we applied strand-specific RNA-sequencing, comparing the SOLiD and Illumina systems. Results: Transcriptomes of EHEC were sequenced under 11 different biotic and abiotic conditions: LB medium at pH4, pH7, pH9, or at 15°C; LB with nitrite or trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; LB-agar surface, M9 minimal medium, spinach leaf juice, surface of living radish sprouts, and cattle feces. Of 5379 annotated genes in strain EDL933 (genome and plasmid), a surprising minority of only 144 had null sequencing reads under all conditions. We therefore developed a statistical method to distinguish weakly transcribed genes from background transcription. We find that 96% of all genes and 91.5% of the hypothetical genes exhibit a significant transcriptional signal under at least one condition. Comparing SOLiD and Illumina systems, we find a high correlation between both approaches for fold-changes of the induced or repressed genes. The pathogenicity island LEE showed highest transcriptional activity in LB medium, minimal medium, and after treatment with antibiotics.

Niiranen , MD, PhD BACKGROUND: Several small-scale animal studies have suggested that gut microbiota and blood pressure (BP) are linked. However, results from human studies remain scarce and conflicting. We wanted to elucidate the multivariable-adjusted as- sociation between gut metagenome and BP in a large, representative, well-phenotyped population sample. We performed a focused analysis to examine the previously reported inverse associations between sodium intake and Lactobacillus abun- dance and between Lactobacillus abundance and BP. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied a population sample of 6953 Finns aged 25 to 74 years (mean age, 49.2±12.9 years; 54.9% women). The participants underwent a health examination, which included BP measurement, stool collection, and 24-hour urine sampling (N=829). Gut microbiota was analyzed using shallow shotgun metagenome sequencing. In age- and sex-adjusted models, the α (within-sample) and β (between-sample) diversities of taxonomic composition were strongly re- lated to BP indexes (P<0.001 for most). In multivariable-adjusted models, β diversity was only associated with diastolic BP (P=0.032).

  • Classical and Rational Approaches to Antifungal Drug Design
    Classical and rational approaches to antifungal drug design Jessica Louise Chitty BSc (Hons) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2017 School of Chemistry and Molecular Biosciences Institute of Molecular Biosciences Abstract The emergence of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) in the 1980s has led to an increase in infections from previously rare pathogens. Many of these now cause widespread infection among individuals with compromised immune systems, not just limited to AIDS patients but also to those placed on immunosuppressive medication. The encapsulated yeast Cryptococcus neoformans causes widespread disease in the immunocompromised population, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa where it is a major cause of AIDS-related mortality due in part to limited resources and variable drug availability. Current treatment options are restricted to three out-dated antifungals amphotericin B, flucytosine and fluconazole; where possible they are used in combination as nephrotoxicity and resistance are contributing factors in the unacceptably high mortality rates. Alternative therapeutic agents are urgently required to improve survival rates and combat antifungal drug resistance. Two main routes of compound development can be taken: classical drug screening or rational drug design. Classical design requires groups of compounds to be screened against pathogens and those identified with high efficacy and low cytotoxicity are pursued. Rational drug design requires a detailed characterization of the proposed target; exploitable differences between the pathogen and human host are sought out as potential druggable targets. In this thesis both classical and rational methods have been investigated. A classical approach was taken to investigate a class of octapeptin compounds, produced as secondary metabolites by the soil dwelling bacterium, Bacillus circulans.
