BEVERIDGE'* Department ofMicrobiology' and Department ofMolecular Biology and Genetics, 2 College of Biological Sciences, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, Canada N1G 2W1 Received 16 June 1993/Accepted 27 September 1993 The cell wall of MethanospiriUum hungatei GP1 is a labile structure that has been difficult to isolate and Downloaded from characterize because the cells which it encases are contained within a sheath. Cell-sized fragments, 560 nm wide by several micrometers long, of cell wall were extracted by a novel method involving the gradual drying of the filaments in 2% (wtlvol) sodium dodecyl sulfate and 10%0 (wt/vol) sucrose in 50 mM N-2-hydroxyeth- ylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) buffer containing 10 mM EDTA. The surface was a hexagonal array (a = b = 15.1 nm) possessing a helical superstructure with a ca. 2.50 pitch angle. In shadowed relief, the smooth outer face was punctuated with deep pits, whereas the inner face was relatively featureless. Computer-based two-dimensional reconstructed views of the negatively stained layer demonstrated 4.0- and 2.0-nm-wide electron-dense regions on opposite sides of the layer likely corresponding to the openings of funnel-shaped channels. The face featuring the larger openings best corresponds to the outer face of the layer.

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.

  • Archaeology of Eukaryotic DNA Replication
    Downloaded from http://cshperspectives.cshlp.org/ on September 25, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Archaeology of Eukaryotic DNA Replication Kira S. Makarova and Eugene V. Koonin National Center for Biotechnology Information, National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland 20894 Correspondence: [email protected] Recent advances in the characterization of the archaeal DNA replication system together with comparative genomic analysis have led to the identification of several previously un- characterized archaeal proteins involved in replication and currently reveal a nearly com- plete correspondence between the components of the archaeal and eukaryotic replication machineries. It can be inferred that the archaeal ancestor of eukaryotes and even the last common ancestor of all extant archaea possessed replication machineries that were compa- rable in complexity to the eukaryotic replication system. The eukaryotic replication system encompasses multiple paralogs of ancestral components such that heteromeric complexes in eukaryotes replace archaeal homomeric complexes, apparently along with subfunctionali- zation of the eukaryotic complex subunits. In the archaea, parallel, lineage-specific dupli- cations of many genes encoding replication machinery components are detectable as well; most of these archaeal paralogs remain to be functionally characterized. The archaeal rep- lication system shows remarkable plasticity whereby even some essential components such as DNA polymerase and single-stranded DNA-binding protein are displaced by unrelated proteins with analogous activities in some lineages. ouble-stranded DNA is the molecule that Okazaki fragments (Kornberg and Baker 2005; Dcarries genetic information in all cellular Barry and Bell 2006; Hamdan and Richardson life-forms; thus, replication of this genetic ma- 2009; Hamdan and van Oijen 2010).

Received 27 February, 2016; Accepted 27 June, 2016 Microbial communities of six samples from Escravos and Meren oil production facility in Nigeria were examined after biocide treatment using cultural and molecular approaches. Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) count and activity were the highest in skimmer pit samples (1N1) which was affiliated with Euryarchchaeota (44%) and Proteobacteria (39%). Treatment of Meren injection water (1N2) with biocides significantly reduced SRB population (102 cell/ml). Sample 1N3 (produced water discharge area) and 1N5 (treated produced water) were dominated by 70.79 and 52% Euryarchaeota, respectively. 1N4 (partially treated produced water) was dominated by Euryarchaeota (51.78%) and Proteobacteria (38%), while 1N6 (produced oil) was dominated by Proteobacteria (28%) and Euryarchaeota (62.6%). Metabolic activities in 1N1, 1N4 and 1N5 were dominated by sulfate reduction and methanogenesis; however, that of 1N2 was dominated only by sulfate reduction, while 1N3 and 1N6 were dominated by methanogenesis. Anaerobic incubation of 1N1 samples gave relatively higher corrosion rates (0.065 mm/year) while 1N2, 1N3 and 1N5 gave moderate corrosion rates (0.018 to 0.037 mm/year).
