Abstract
Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) is essential for maintaining the function and stability of anaerobic microbial consortia. However, only limited natural DIET modes have been identified and DIET engineering remains highly challenging. In this study, an unnatural DIET between Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (SO, electron donating partner) and Rhodopseudomonas palustris (RP, electron accepting partner) was artificially established by a facile living cell-cell click chemistry strategy. By introducing alkyne- or azide-modified monosaccharides onto the cell outer surface of the target species, precise covalent connections between different species in high proximity were realized through a fast click chemistry reaction. Remarkably, upon covalent connection, outer cell surface C-type cytochromes mediated DIET between SO and RP was achieved and identified, although this was never realized naturally. Moreover, this connection directly shifted the natural H2 mediated interspecies electron transfer (MIET) to DIET between SO and RP, which delivered superior interspecies electron exchange efficiency. Therefore, this work demonstrated a naturally unachievable DIET and an unprecedented MIET shift to DIET accomplished by cell-cell distance engineering, offering an efficient and versatile solution for DIET engineering, which extends our understanding of DIET and opens up new avenues for DIET exploration and applications.

ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2024; 251:118655. [PMID: 38479717 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2024.118655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
Some nano-biochars (nano-BCs) as electron mediators could enter into cells to directly promote intracellular electron transfer and cell activities. However, little information was available on the effect of nano-BCs on SMX degradation. In this study, nano-BCs were prepared using sludge-derived humic acid (SHA) and their effects on SMX degradation by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 were investigated. Results showed that nano-BCs (Carbon dots, CDs, <10 nm) synthesized using SHA performed a better accelerating effect than that of the nano-BCs with a larger size (10-100 nm), which could be attributed to the better electron transfer abilities of CDs. The degradation rate of 10 mg/L SMX in the presence of 100 mg/L CDs was significantly increased by 84.6% compared to that without CDs. Further analysis showed that CDs could not only be combined with extracellular Fe(III) to accelerate its reduction, but also participate in the reduction of 4-aminobenzenesulphonic acid as an intermediate metabolite of SMX via coupling with extracellular Fe(III) reduction. Meanwhile, CDs could enter cells to directly participate in intracellular electron transfer, resulting in 32.2% and 25.2% increases of electron transfer system activity and ATP level, respectively. Moreover, the activities of SMX-degrading enzymes located in periplasm and cytoplasm were increased by around 2.2-fold in the presence of CDs. These results provide an insight into the accelerating effect of nano-BCs with the size of <10 nm on SMX degradation and an approach for SHA utilization.

Abstract
The iron transport system plays a crucial role in the extracellular electron transfer process of Shewanella sp. In this study, we fabricated a vertically oriented α-Fe2O3 nanoarray on carbon cloth to enhance interfacial electron transfer in Shewanella putrefaciens CN32 microbial fuel cells. The incorporation of the α-Fe2O3 nanoarray not only resulted in a slight increase in flavin content but also significantly enhanced biofilm loading, leading to an eight-fold higher maximum power density compared to plain carbon cloth. Through expression level analyses of electron transfer-related genes in the outer membrane and core genes in the iron transport system, we propose that the α-Fe2O3 nanoarray can serve as an electron mediator, facilitating direct electron transfer between the bacteria and electrodes. This finding provides important insights into the potential application of iron-containing oxide electrodes in the design of microbial fuel cells and other bioelectrochemical systems, highlighting the role of α-Fe2O3 in promoting direct electron transfer.

Efficient nitrate and Cr(VI) removal by denitrifier: The mechanism of S. oneidensis MR-1 promoting electron production, transportation and consumption. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 469:133675. [PMID: 38508109 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.133675] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2023] [Revised: 01/21/2024] [Accepted: 01/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024]
Abstract
When Cr(VI) and nitrate coexist, the efficiency of both bio-denitrification and Cr(VI) bio-reduction is poor because chromate hinders bacterial normal functions (i.e., electron production, transportation and consumption). Moreover, under anaerobic condition, the method about efficient nitrate and Cr(VI) removal remained unclear. In this paper, the addition of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 to promote the electron production, transportation and consumption of denitrifier and cause an increase in the removal of nitrate and Cr(VI). The efficiency of nitrate and Cr(VI) removal accomplished by P. denitrificans as a used model denitrifier increased respectively from 51.3% to 96.1% and 34.3% to 99.8% after S. oneidensis MR-1 addition. The mechanism investigations revealed that P. denitrificans provided S. oneidensis MR-1 with lactate, which was utilized to secreted riboflavin and phenazine by S. oneidensis MR-1. The riboflavin served as coenzymes of cellular reductants (i.e., thioredoxin and glutathione) in P. denitrificans, which created favorable intracellular microenvironment conditions for electron generation. Meanwhile, phenazine promoted biofilm formation, which increased the adsorption of Cr(VI) on the cell surface and accelerated the Cr(VI) reduction by membrane bound chromate reductases thereby reducing damage to other enzymes respectively. Overall, this strategy reduced the negative effect of chromate, thus improved the generation, transportation, and consumption of electrons. SYNOPSIS: The presence of S. oneidensis MR-1 facilitated nitrate and Cr(VI) removal by P. denitrificans through decreasing the negative effect of chromate due to the metabolites' secretion.

Abstract
Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is widely employed as an antibiotic, while its residue in environment has become a common public concern. Using 100 mg/L SMX as the sole nutrient source, the acclimated sludge obtained by this study displayed an excellent SMX degradation performance. The addition of SMX resulted in significant microbiological differentiation within the acclimated sludge. Microbacterium (6.6%) was identified as the relatively dominant genera in metabolism group that used SMX as sole carbon source. Highly expressed proteins from this strain strongly suggested its essential role in SMX degradation, while the degradation of SMX by other strains (Thaurea 78%) in co-metabolism group appeared to also rely on this strain. The interactions of differentially expressed proteins were primarily involved in metabolic pathways including TCA cycle and nitrogen metabolism. It is concluded that the sulfonamides might serve not only as the carbon source but also as the nitrogen source in the reactor. A total of 24 intermediates were identified, 13 intermediates were newly reported. The constructed pathway suggested the mineralizing and nitrogen conversion ability towards SMX. Batch experiments also proved that the acclimated sludge displayed ability to biodegrade other sulfonamides, including SM2 and SDZ and SMX-N could be removed completely.

Abstract
Malathion, an extensively used organophosphorus pesticide, poses a high potential risk of toxicity to humans and the environment. Shewanella (S.) oneidensis MR-1 has been proposed as a strain with excellent bioremediation capabilities, capable of efficiently removing a wide range of hard-to-degrade pollutants. However, the physiological and biochemical response of S. oneidensis MR-1 to malathion is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to examine how S. oneidensis MR-1 responds physiologically and biochemically to malathion while also investigating the biodegradation properties of the pesticide. The results showed that the 7-day degradation rates of S. oneidensis MR-1 were 84.1, 91.6, and 94.0% at malathion concentrations of 10, 20, and 30 mg/L, respectively. As the concentration of malathion increased, superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were inhibited, leading to a significant rise in malondialdehyde content. This outcome can be attributed to the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) triggered by malathion stress. In addition, ROS production stimulates the secretion of soluble polysaccharides, which alleviates oxidative stress caused by malathion. Malathion-induced oxidative damage further exacerbated the changes in the cellular properties of S. oneidensis MR-1. During the initial stages of degradation, the cell density and total intracellular protein increased significantly with increasing malathion exposure. This can be attributed to the remarkable resistance of S. oneidensis MR-1 to malathion. Based on scanning electron microscopy observations, continuous exposure to contaminants led to a reduction in biomass and protein content, resulting in reduced cell activity and ultimately leading to cell rupture. In addition, this was accompanied by a decrease in Na+/K+- ATPase and Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase levels, suggesting that malathion-mediated oxidative stress interfered with energy metabolism in S. oneidensis MR-1. The findings of this study provide new insights into the environmental risks associated with organophosphorus pesticides, specifically malathion, and their potential for bioremediation.

Abstract
Antibiotics often coexist with other pollutants (e.g., nitrate) in an aquatic environment, and their simultaneous biological removal has attracted widespread interest. We have found that sulfamethoxazole (SMX) and nitrate can be efficiently removed by the coculture of a model denitrifier (Paracoccus denitrificans, Pd) and Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (So), and SMX degradation is affected by NADH production and electron transfer. In this paper, the mechanism of a coculture promoting NADH production and electron transfer was investigated by proteomic analysis and intermediate experiments. The results showed that glutamine and lactate produced by Pd were captured by So to synthesize thiamine and heme, and the released thiamine was taken up by Pd as a cofactor of pyruvate and ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, which were related to NADH generation. Additionally, Pd acquired heme, which facilitated electron transfer as heme, was the important composition of complex III and cytochrome c and the iron source of iron sulfur clusters, the key component of complex I in the electron transfer chain. Further investigation revealed that lactate and glutamine generated by Pd prompted So chemotactic moving toward Pd, which helped the two bacteria effectively obtain their required substances. Obviously, metabolite cross-feeding promoted NADH production and electron transfer, resulting in efficient SMX biodegradation by Pd and So in the presence of nitrate. Its feasibility was finally verified by the coculture of an activated sludge denitrifier and So.

Abstract
Nitrate and SMX both play a critical role in their biotransformation in biodegradable polymer-supported denitrification biofilters. However, the mutual influences of nitrate and SMX on their biotransformation for long-term operation remained obscure. Results showed SMX and nitrate had divergent effects on SMX removal. SMX removal rates was positively related with its loading rates, whereas they were negatively related to NLRs. The most abundant metabolite C10H14O3N3S (the reduced form of SMX moiety) from the N-O bond cleavage pathway by UHPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS/MS and effluent TOC variations confirmed the presence of electron donor competition between nitrate and SMX. SMX less than 1000 μg/L had a negligible influence on denitrification performance. Denitrifiers such as Azospira and Denitratisoma were still enriched after chronic exposure, and nosZ/narG positively correlated with sul1/sul2 resistance genes, which were both responsible for the negligible influence of SMX. This work could guide the operational management of denitrification biofilters for simultaneous nitrate and antibiotics removal.

Abstract
Nitrogen-doped graphene (NG) was synthesized via direct thermal annealing treatment. The obtained NG showed outstanding removal ability for tetracycline (TC) ascribed to enhanced adsorption and persulfate activation. The maximum TC adsorption capacity calculated from the Langmuir model of NG was 227.3 mg/g, which was 1.66 times larger than nitrogen-free graphene. The coexistence of NG and persulfate (PS) exhibited complete degradation of TC within 120 min attributed to the successful modification of nitrogen. Further analysis demonstrated that non-radical electron transfer was the dominant degradation pathway, which was different from the widely acknowledgeable radical mechanism. An electron donor-mediator-acceptor system was introduced, in which TC, NG, and PS performed as electron donor, mediator, and acceptor, respectively. The potential intermediates in the TC degradation process were detected and toxicity assessment was also performed. In addition, more than 75.8% of total organic carbon was removed, and excellent reusability was manifested in multiple adsorption and degradation experiments.

In situ bioremediation using organohalide-respiring bacteria (OHRB) is a prospective method for the removal of persistent halogenated organic pollutants from groundwater, as OHRB can utilize H2 or organic compounds produced by carbon source materials as electron donors for cell growth through organohalide respiration. However, few previous studies have determined the suitability of different carbon source materials to the metabolic mechanism of reductive dehalogenation from the perspective of electron transfer. The focus of this critical review was to reveal the interactions and relationships between carbon source materials and functional microbes, in terms of the electron transfer mechanism. Furthermore, this review illustrates some innovative strategies that have used the physiological characteristics of OHRB to guide the optimization of carbon source materials, improving the abundance of indigenous dehalogenated bacteria and enhancing electron transfer efficiency. Finally, it is proposed that future research should combine multi-omics analysis with machine learning (ML) to guide the design of effective carbon source materials and optimize current dehalogenation bioremediation strategies to reduce the cost and footprint of practical groundwater bioremediation applications.

Goethite and riboflavin synergistically enhance Cr(VI) reduction by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1. Biodegradation 2023; 34:155-167. [PMID: 36592293 DOI: 10.1007/s10532-022-10010-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
Bioreduction of Cr(VI) is cost-effective and environmentally friendly, however, the slow bioreduction rate limits its application. In this study, the potential synergistic enhancement of Cr(VI) bioreduction by shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (S. oneidensis) with goethite and riboflavin (RF) was investigated. The results showed that the S. oneidensis reaction system reduce 29.2% of 20 mg/L Cr(VI) after 42 h reaction, while the S. oneidensis/goethite/RF reaction system increased the Cr(VI) reduction rate to 87.74%. RF as an efficient electron shuttle and Fe(II) from goethite bioreduction were identified as the crucial components in Cr(VI) reduction. XPS analysis showed that the final precipitates of Cr(VI) reduction were Cr(CH3C(O)CHC(O)CH3)3 and Cr2O3 and adhered to the bacterial cell surface. In this process, the microbial surface functional groups such as hydroxyl and carboxyl groups participated in the adsorption and reduction of Cr(VI). Meanwhile, an increase in cytochrome c led to an increase in electron transfer system activity (ETSA), causing a significant enhancement in extracellular electron transfer efficiency. This study provides insight into the mechanism of Cr(VI) reduction in a complex environment where microorganisms, iron minerals and RF coexist, and the synergistic treatment method of Fe(III) minerals and RF has great potential application for Cr(VI) detoxification in aqueous environment.

Living and Regenerative Material Encapsulating Self-Assembled Shewanella oneidensis-CdS Hybrids for Photocatalytic Biodegradation of Organic Dyes. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10122501. [PMID: 36557754 PMCID: PMC9781410 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10122501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Revised: 12/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Reductive biodegradation by microorganisms has been widely explored for detoxifying recalcitrant contaminants; however, the biodegradation capacity of microbes is limited by the energy level of the released electrons. Here, we developed a method to self-assemble Shewanella oneidensis-CdS nanoparticle hybrids with significantly improved reductive biodegradation capacity and constructed a living material by encapsulating the hybrids in hydrogels. The material confines the nano-bacteria hybrids and protects them from environmental stress, thus improving their recyclability and long-term stability (degradation capacity unhindered after 4 weeks). The developed living materials exhibited efficient photocatalytic biodegradation of various organic dyes including azo and nitroso dyes. This study highlights the feasibility and benefits of constructing self-assembled nano-bacteria hybrids for bioremediation and sets the stage for the development of novel living materials from nano-bacteria hybrids.

Yin Y, Liu C, Zhao G, Chen Y. Versatile mechanisms and enhanced strategies of pollutants removal mediated by Shewanella oneidensis: A review. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2022; 440:129703. [PMID: 35963088 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2022.129703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2022] [Revised: 07/17/2022] [Accepted: 07/29/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The removal of environmental pollutants is important for a sustainable ecosystem and human health. Shewanella oneidensis (S. oneidensis) has diverse electron transfer pathways and can use a variety of contaminants as electron acceptors or electron donors. This paper reviews S. oneidensis's function in removing environmental pollutants, including heavy metals, inorganic non-metallic ions (INMIs), and toxic organic pollutants. S. oneidensis can mineralize o-xylene (OX), phenanthrene (PHE), and pyridine (Py) as electron donors, and also reduce azo dyes, nitro aromatic compounds (NACs), heavy metals, and iodate by extracellular electron transfer (EET). For azo dyes, NACs, Cr(VI), nitrite, nitrate, thiosulfate, and sulfite that can cross the membrane, S. oneidensis transfers electrons to intracellular reductases to catalyze their reduction. However, most organic pollutants cannot be directly degraded by S. oneidensis, but S. oneidensis can remove these pollutants by self-synthesizing catalysts or photocatalysts, constructing bio-photocatalytic systems, driving Fenton reactions, forming microbial consortia, and genetic engineering. However, the industrial-scale application of S. oneidensis is insufficient. Future research on the metabolism of S. oneidensis and interfacial reactions with other materials needs to be deepened, and large-scale reactors should be developed that can be used for practical engineering applications.

Harnessing Paenarthrobacter ureafaciens YL1 and Pseudomonas koreensis YL2 Interactions to Improve Degradation of Sulfamethoxazole. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10030648. [PMID: 35336223 PMCID: PMC8953276 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms10030648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) is a widespread and persistent pollutant in the environment. Although the screening and analysis of SMX-degrading bacteria have been documented, the interaction mechanisms of functional microorganisms are still poorly understood. This study constructed a consortium with strain YL1 and YL2 supplied with SMX as the sole carbon and energy source. The coexisting mechanism and the removal of SMX of the consortium were investigated. The total oxidizable carbon (TOC) removal rate of the combined bacterial system was 38.94% compared to 29.45% for the single bacterial system at the same biomass. The mixed bacterial consortium was able to resist SMX at concentrations up to 400 mg/L and maintained a stable microbial structure at different culture conditions. The optimum conditions found for SMX degradation were 30 °C, pH 7.0, a shaking speed of 160 r·min−1, and an initial SMX concentration of 200 mg·L−1. The degradation of SMX was accelerated by the addition of YL2 for its ability to metabolize the key intermediate, 4-aminophenol. The removal rate of 4-aminophenol by strain YL2 reached 19.54% after 5 days. Genome analysis revealed that adding riboflavin and enhancing the reducing capacity might contribute to the degradation of SMX. These results indicated that it is important for the bioremediation of antibiotic-contaminated aquatic systems to understand the metabolism of bacterial communities.
