Impacts of Elevated CO 2 and a Nitrogen Supply on the Growth of Faba Beans ( Vicia faba L.) and the Nitrogen-Related Soil Bacterial Community. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:2483. [PMID: 39273967 PMCID: PMC11397150 DOI: 10.3390/plants13172483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2024] [Revised: 08/30/2024] [Accepted: 09/03/2024] [Indexed: 09/15/2024]
Abstract
Ecosystems that experience elevated CO2 (eCO2) are crucial interfaces where intricate interactions between plants and microbes occur. This study addressed the impact of eCO2 and a N supply on faba bean (Vicia faba L.) growth and the soil microbial community in auto-controlled growth chambers. In doing so, two ambient CO2 concentrations (aCO2, daytime/nighttime = 410/460 ppm; eCO2, 550/610 ppm) and two N supplement levels (without a N supply-N0-and 100 mg N as urea per kg of soil-N100) were applied. The results indicated that eCO2 mitigated the inhibitory effects of a N deficiency on legume photosynthesis and affected the CO2 assimilation efficiency, in addition to causing reduced nodulation. While the N addition counteracted the reductions in the N concentrations across the faba beans' aboveground and belowground plant tissues under eCO2, the CO2 concentrations did not significantly alter the soil NH4+-N or NO3--N responses to a N supply. Notably, under both aCO2 and eCO2, a N supply significantly increased the relative abundance of Nitrososphaeraceae and Nitrosomonadaceae, while eCO2 specifically reduced the Rhizobiaceae abundance with no significant changes under aCO2. A redundancy analysis (RDA) highlighted that the soil pH (p < 0.01) had the most important influence on the soil microbial community. Co-occurrence networks indicated that the eCO2 conditions mitigated the impact of a N supply on the reduced structural complexity of the soil microbial communities. These findings suggest that a combination of eCO2 and a N supply to crops can provide potential benefits for managing future climate change impacts on crop production.

Abstract
The present paper reviews oxidases catalyzing conversion of glycolaldehyde into glyoxal. The enzymatic oxidation of glycolaldehyde into glyoxal was first reported in alcohol oxidases (AODs) from methylotrophic yeasts such as Candida and Pichia, and glycerol oxidase (GLOD) from Aspergillus japonicus, although it had been reported that these enzymes are specific to short-chain linear aliphatic alcohols and glycerol, respectively. These enzymes continuously oxidized ethylene glycol into glyoxal via glycolaldehyde. The AODs produced by Aspergillus ochraceus and Penicillium purpurescens also oxidized glycolaldehyde. A new enzyme exhibiting oxidase activity for glycolaldehyde was reported from a newly isolated bacterium, Paenibacillus sp. AIU 311. The Paenibacillus enzyme exhibited high activity for aldehyde alcohols such as glycolaldehyde and glyceraldehyde, but not for methanol, ethanol, ethylene glycol or glycerol. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Paenibacillus AOD was similar to that of superoxide dismutases (SODs), but not to that of methylotrophic yeast AODs. Then, it was demonstrated that SODs had oxidase activity for aldehyde alcohols including glycolaldehyde. The present paper describes characteristics of glycolaldehyde oxidation by those enzymes produced by different microorganisms.

Abstract
We have cloned a gene encoding an alcohol oxidase (AOD) specific to aldehyde alcohols from Paenibacillus sp. AIU 311. The AOD gene contains an open reading frame consisting of 618 nucleotides corresponding to 205 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibits a high similarity to that of manganese superoxide dismutases (SODs). We expressed the cloned gene as an active product in Escherichia coli BL21 cells. The productivity (total units per culture broth volume) of the recombinant AOD expressed in E. coli BL21 is 26,000-fold higher than that of AOD in Paenibacillus sp. AIU 311. The recombinant AOD also exhibits aldehyde alcohol oxidase activity and SOD activity. The recombinant cells described in this study have utility for the production of glyoxal from glycolaldehyde.

Abstract
A variety of spectroscopic and computational techniques have been used to examine the thermochromic transition previously reported for the oxidized state of Mn-dependent superoxide dismutase from E. coli in the presence of substrate analog azide (N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD).[Whittaker, M. M.; Whittaker, J. W. Biochemistry 1996, 35, 6762-6770.] Although previous spectroscopic studies had shown that this thermochromic event corresponds to a change in coordination number of the active-site Mn(3+) ion from 6 to 5 as temperature is increased, the ligand that dissociates in this conversion had yet to be identified. Through the use of electronic absorption, circular dichroism (CD), and magnetic CD (MCD) spectroscopies, both d-->d and ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) transition energies have been determined for native Mn(3+)SOD (possessing a five-coordinate Mn(3+) center) and Y34F N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD (forming a six-coordinate N(3)-Mn(3+) adduct at all temperatures). These two systems provide well-defined reference points from which to analyze the absorption and CD data obtained for N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD at room temperature (RT). Comparison of excited-state spectroscopic data reveals that Mn(3+)SOD and RT N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD exhibit virtually identical d-->d transition energies, suggesting that these two species possess similar geometric and electronic structures and, thus, that azide does not actually coordinate to the active-site Mn(3+) ion at RT. However, resonance Raman spectra of both N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD and Y34F N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD at 0 degrees C exhibit azide-related vibrations, indicating that azide does interact with the active site of the native enzyme at this temperature. To gain further insight into the nature of the azide/Mn(3+) interaction in RT N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD, several viable active-site models designed to promote either dissociation of coordinated solvent, Asp167, or azide were generated using DFT computations. By utilizing the time-dependent DFT method to predict absorption spectra for these models of RT N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD, we demonstrate that only azide dissociation is consistent with experimental data. Collectively, our spectroscopic and computational data provide evidence that the active site of N(3)-Mn(3+)SOD at RT exists in a dynamic equilibrium, with the azide molecule either hydrogen-bonded to the second-sphere Tyr34 residue or coordinated to the Mn(3+) ion. These results further highlight the role that second-sphere residues, especially Tyr34, play in tuning substrate (analog)/metal ion interactions.

Abstract
We found that when grown under anaerobic conditions the moderate halophile, gram-positive bacterium Bacillus halodenitrificans (ATCC 49067) synthesizes large amounts of a polypeptide complex that contains a heme center capable of reversibly bind nitric oxide. This complex, when exposed to air, dissociates and reassociates into two active components, a Mn-containing superoxide dismutase (SOD) and a nucleoside diphosphate kinase (BhNDK). The crystal structure of this latter enzyme has been determined at 2.2A resolution using molecular replacement method, based on the crystal structure of Drosophila melanogaster NDK. The model contains 149 residues of a total 150 residues and 34 water molecules. BhNDK consists of a four-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet, whose surfaces are partially covered by six alpha-helices, and its overall and active site structures are similar to those of homologous enzymes. However, the hexameric packing of BhNDK shows that this enzyme is different from both eukaryotic and gram-negative bacteria. The need for the bacterium to presynthesize both SOD and NDK precursors which are activated during the anaerobic-aerobic transition is discussed.
