[PMID: 37507515 PMCID: PMC10382590 DOI: 10.1038/s42003-023-05110-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/06/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
The vacuolar-type ATPase from Enterococcus hirae (EhV-ATPase) is a thus-far unique adaptation of V-ATPases, as it performs Na+ transport and demonstrates an off-axis rotor assembly. Recent single molecule studies of the isolated V1 domain have indicated that there are subpauses within the three major states of the pseudo three-fold symmetric rotary enzyme. However, there was no structural evidence for these. Herein we activate the EhV-ATPase complex with ATP and identified multiple structures consisting of a total of six states of this complex by using cryo-electron microscopy. The orientations of the rotor complex during turnover, especially in the intermediates, are not as perfectly uniform as expected. The densities in the nucleotide binding pockets in the V1 domain indicate the different catalytic conditions for the six conformations. The off-axis rotor and its' interactions with the stator a-subunit during rotation suggests that this non-uniform rotor rotation is performed through the entire complex.

Abstract
The natural combustion of underground coal seams leads to the formation of gas, which contains molecular hydrogen and carbon monoxide. In places where hot coal gases are released to the surface, specific thermal ecosystems are formed. Here, 16S rRNA gene profiling and shotgun metagenome sequencing were employed to characterize the taxonomic diversity and genetic potential of prokaryotic communities of the near-surface ground layer near hot gas vents in an open quarry heated by a subsurface coal fire. The communities were dominated by only a few groups of spore-forming Firmicutes, namely the aerobic heterotroph Candidatus Carbobacillus altaicus, the aerobic chemolitoautotrophs Kyrpidia tusciae and Hydrogenibacillus schlegelii, and the anaerobic chemolithoautotroph Brockia lithotrophica. Genome analysis predicted that these species can obtain energy from the oxidation of hydrogen and/or carbon monoxide in coal gases. We assembled the first complete closed genome of a member of uncultured class-level division DTU015 in the phylum Firmicutes. This bacterium, 'Candidatus Fermentithermobacillus carboniphilus' Bu02, was predicted to be rod-shaped and capable of flagellar motility and sporulation. Genome analysis showed the absence of aerobic and anaerobic respiration and suggested chemoheterotrophic lifestyle with the ability to ferment peptides, amino acids, N-acetylglucosamine, and tricarboxylic acid cycle intermediates. Bu02 bacterium probably plays the role of a scavenger, performing the fermentation of organics formed by autotrophic Firmicutes supported by coal gases. A comparative genome analysis of the DTU015 division revealed that most of its members have a similar lifestyle.

Roh H, Kim DH. Genotypic and Phenotypic Characterization of Highly Alkaline-Resistant Carnobacterium maltaromaticum V-Type ATPase from the Dairy Product Based on Comparative Genomics. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9061233. [PMID: 34204143 PMCID: PMC8229585 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9061233] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2021] [Revised: 05/29/2021] [Accepted: 06/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Although Carnobacterium maltaromaticum derived from dairy products has been used as a lactic acid bacterium industrially, several studies have reported potential pathogenicity and disease outbreaks. Because strains derived from diseased fish and dairy products are considered potentially virulent and beneficial, respectively, their genotypic and phenotypic characteristics have attracted considerable attention. A genome-wide comparison of 30 genome sequences (13, 3, and 14 strains from diseased aquatic animals, dairy products, and processed food, respectively) was carried out. Additionally, one dairy and two nondairy strains were incubated in nutrient-rich (diluted liquid media) and nutrient-deficient environments (PBS) at pH 10 to compare their alkaline resistance in accordance with different nutritional environments by measuring their optical density and viable bacterial cell counts. Interestingly, only dairy strains carried 11 shared accessory genes, and 8 genes were strongly involved in the V-type ATPase gene cluster. Given that V-type ATPase contributes to resistance to alkaline pH and salts using proton motive force generated via sodium translocation across the membrane, C. maltaromaticum with a V-type ATPase might use nutrients in food under high pH. Indeed, the dairy strain carrying the V-type ATPase exhibited the highest alkaline resistance only in the nutrient-rich environment with significant upregulation of V-type ATPase expression. These results suggest that the gene cluster of V-type ATPase and increased alkaline resistance of dairy strains facilitate adaptation in the long-term ripening of alkaline dairy products.

Phenotypic and Genomic Properties of Chitinispirillum alkaliphilum gen. nov., sp. nov., A Haloalkaliphilic Anaerobic Chitinolytic Bacterium Representing a Novel Class in the Phylum Fibrobacteres. Front Microbiol 2016; 7:407.

Abstract
Anaerobic enrichment from sediments of hypersaline alkaline lakes in Wadi el Natrun (Egypt) with chitin resulted in the isolation of a fermentative haloalkaliphilic bacterium, strain ACht6-1, growing exclusively with insoluble chitin as the substrate in a sodium carbonate-based medium at pH 8.5–10.5 and total Na+ concentrations from 0.4 to 1.75 M. The isolate had a Gram-negative cell wall and formed lipid cysts in old cultures. The chitinolytic activity was associated with cells. Analysis of the 4.4 Mb draft genome identified pathways for chitin utilization, particularly, secreted chitinases linked to the cell surface, as well as genes for the hydrolysis of other polysaccharides and fermentation of sugars, while the genes needed for aerobic and anaerobic respiration were absent. Adaptation to a haloalkaliphilic lifestyle was reflected by the gene repertoire encoding sodium rather than proton-dependent membrane-bound ion pumps, including the Rnf-type complex, oxaloacetate decarboxylase, V-type ATPase, and pyrophosphatase. The phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene and ribosomal proteins indicated that ACht6-1 forms a novel deep lineage at the class level within the bacterial candidate division TG3. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic and genomic analyses, the novel chitinolytic bacterium is described as Chitinispirillum alkaliphilum gen. nov., sp. nov., within a novel class Chitinispirillia that could be included into the phylum Fibrobacteres.

Genome analysis of Chitinivibrio alkaliphilus gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel extremely haloalkaliphilic anaerobic chitinolytic bacterium from the candidate phylum Termite Group 3. Environ Microbiol 2013; 16:1549-65. [PMID: 24112708 DOI: 10.1111/1462-2920.12284] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2013] [Revised: 07/29/2013] [Accepted: 09/09/2013] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Anaerobic enrichments from hypersaline soda lakes with chitin as substrate yielded five closely related anaerobic haloalkaliphilic isolates growing on insoluble chitin by fermentation at pH 10 and salinities up to 3.5 M. The chitinolytic activity was exclusively cell associated. To better understand the biology and evolutionary history of this novel bacterial lineage, the genome of the type strain ACht1 was sequenced. Analysis of the 2.6 Mb draft genome revealed enzymes of chitin-degradation pathways, including secreted cell-bound chitinases. The reconstructed central metabolism revealed pathways enabling the fermentation of polysaccharides, while it lacks the genes needed for aerobic or anaerobic respiration. The Rnf-type complex, oxaloacetate decarboxylase and sodium-transporting V-type adenosine triphosphatase were identified among putative membrane-bound ion pumps. According to 16S ribosomal RNA analysis, the isolates belong to the candidate phylum Termite Group 3, representing its first culturable members. Phylogenetic analysis using ribosomal proteins and taxonomic distribution analysis of the whole proteome supported a class-level classification of ACht1 most probably affiliated to the phylum Fibribacteres. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic and genomic analyses, the novel bacteria are proposed to be classified as Chitinivibrio alkaliphilus gen. nov., sp. nov., within a novel class Chitinivibrione.
