Kim J, Cha IT, Lee KE, Son YK, Yu J, Seol D. Characteristics and adaptability of Flavobacterium panici BSSL-CR3 in tidal flat revealed by comparative genomic and enzymatic analysis. Arch Microbiol 2022; 205:22. [PMID: 36495352 DOI: 10.1007/s00203-022-03359-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2022] [Revised: 11/22/2022] [Accepted: 11/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Tidal flat microbes play an important ecological role by removing organic pollutants and providing an energy source. However, bacteria isolated from tidal flats and their genomes have been scarcely reported, making it difficult to elucidate which genes and pathways are potentially involved in the above roles. In this study, strain BSSL-CR3, the third reported species among the tidal flat Flavobacterium was analyzed using whole-genome sequencing to investigate its adaptability and functionality in tidal flats. BSSL-CR3 is comprised of a circular chromosome of 5,972,859 bp with a GC content of 33.84%. Genome annotation and API ZYM results showed that BSSL-CR3 has a variety of secondary metabolic gene clusters and enzyme activities including α-galactosidase. BSSL-CR3 had more proteins with a low isoelectric point (pI) than terrestrial Flavobacterium strains, and several genes related to osmotic regulation were found in the genomic island (GI). Comparative genomic analysis with other tidal flat bacteria also revealed that BSSL-CR3 had the largest number of genes encoding Carbohydrate Active EnZymes (CAZymes) which are related to algae degradation. This study will provide insight into the adaptability of BSSL-CR3 to the tidal flats and contribute to facilitating future comparative analysis of bacteria in tidal flats.

Abstract
The rapid growth of the use of nanomaterials in different modern industrial branches makes the study of the impact of nanoparticles on the human health and environment an urgent matter. For instance, it has been reported that titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) can be found in wastewater treatment plants. Previous studies have found contrasting effects of these nanoparticles over the activated sludge process, including negative effects on the oxygen uptake. The non-utilization of oxygen reflects that aerobic bacteria were inhibited or decayed. The aim of this work was to study how TiO2 NPs affect the bacterial diversity and metabolic processes on an activated sludge. First, respirometry assays of 8 h were carried out at different concentrations of TiO2 NPs (0.5-2.0 mg/mL) to measure the oxygen uptake by the activated sludge. The bacterial diversity of these assays was determined by sequencing the amplified V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene using Illumina MiSeq. According to the respirometry assays, the aerobic processes were inhibited in a range from 18.5 ± 4.8% to 37.5 ± 2.0% for concentrations of 0.5-2.0 mg/mL TiO2 NPs. The oxygen uptake rate was affected mainly after 4.5 h for concentrations higher than 1.0 mg/mL of these nanoparticles. Results indicated that, in the presence of TiO2 NPs, the bacterial community of activated sludge was altered mainly in the genera related to nitrogen removal (nitrogen assimilation, nitrification and denitrification). The metabolic pathways prediction suggested that genes related to biofilm formation were more sensitive than genes directly related to nitrification-denitrification and N-assimilation processes. These results indicated that TiO2 NPs might modify the bacteria diversity in the activated sludge according to their concentration and time of exposition, which in turn impact in the performance of the wastewater treatment processes.

Insights into the genome and secretome of Fusarium metavorans DSM105788 by cultivation on agro-residual biomass and synthetic nutrient sources. BIOTECHNOLOGY FOR BIOFUELS 2021; 14:74. [PMID: 33743779 PMCID: PMC7981871 DOI: 10.1186/s13068-021-01927-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The transition to a biobased economy involving the depolymerization and fermentation of renewable agro-industrial sources is a challenge that can only be met by achieving the efficient hydrolysis of biomass to monosaccharides. In nature, lignocellulosic biomass is mainly decomposed by fungi. We recently identified six efficient cellulose degraders by screening fungi from Vietnam. RESULTS We characterized a high-performance cellulase-producing strain, with an activity of 0.06 U/mg, which was identified as a member of the Fusarium solani species complex linkage 6 (Fusarium metavorans), isolated from mangrove wood (FW16.1, deposited as DSM105788). The genome, representing nine potential chromosomes, was sequenced using PacBio and Illumina technology. In-depth secretome analysis using six different synthetic and artificial cellulose substrates and two agro-industrial waste products identified 500 proteins, including 135 enzymes assigned to five different carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) classes. The F. metavorans enzyme cocktail was tested for saccharification activity on pre-treated sugarcane bagasse, as well as untreated sugarcane bagasse and maize leaves, where it was complemented with the commercial enzyme mixture Accellerase 1500. In the untreated sugarcane bagasse and maize leaves, initial cell wall degradation was observed in the presence of at least 196 µg/mL of the in-house cocktail. Increasing the dose to 336 µg/mL facilitated the saccharification of untreated sugarcane biomass, but had no further effect on the pre-treated biomass. CONCLUSION Our results show that F. metavorans DSM105788 is a promising alternative pre-treatment for the degradation of agro-industrial lignocellulosic materials. The enzyme cocktail promotes the debranching of biopolymers surrounding the cellulose fibers and releases reduced sugars without process disadvantages or loss of carbohydrates.

Aspergillus sydowii: Genome Analysis and Characterization of Two Heterologous Expressed, Non-redundant Xylanases. Front Microbiol 2020; 11:2154. [PMID: 33071998 PMCID: PMC7531221 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.573482] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2020] [Accepted: 08/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
A prerequisite for the transition toward a biobased economy is the identification and development of efficient enzymes for the usage of renewable resources as raw material. Therefore, different xylanolytic enzymes are important for efficient enzymatic hydrolysis of xylan-heteropolymers. A powerful tool to overcome the limited enzymatic toolbox lies in exhausting the potential of unexplored habitats. By screening a Vietnamese fungal culture collection of 295 undiscovered fungal isolates, 12 highly active xylan degraders were identified. One of the best xylanase producing strains proved to be an Aspergillus sydowii strain from shrimp shell (Fsh102), showing a specific activity of 0.6 U/mg. Illumina dye sequencing was used to identify our Fsh102 strain and determine differences to the A. sydowii CBS 593.65 reference strain. With activity based in-gel zymography and subsequent mass spectrometric identification, three potential proteins responsible for xylan degradation were identified. Two of these proteins were cloned from the cDNA and, furthermore, expressed heterologously in Escherichia coli and characterized. Both xylanases, were entirely different from each other, including glycoside hydrolases (GH) families, folds, substrate specificity, and inhibition patterns. The specific enzyme activity applying 0.1% birch xylan of both purified enzymes were determined with 181.1 ± 37.8 or 121.5 ± 10.9 U/mg for xylanase I and xylanase II, respectively. Xylanase I belongs to the GH11 family, while xylanase II is member of the GH10 family. Both enzymes showed typical endo-xylanase activity, the main products of xylanase I are xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylohexose, while xylobiose, xylotriose, and xylopentose are formed by xylanase II. Additionally, xylanase II showed remarkable activity toward xylotriose. Xylanase I is stable when stored up to 30°C and pH value of 9, while xylanase II started to lose significant activity stored at pH 9 after exceeding 3 days of storage. Xylanase II displayed about 40% activity when stored at 50°C for 24 h. The enzymes are tolerant toward mesophilic temperatures, while acting in a broad pH range. With site directed mutagenesis, the active site residues in both enzymes were confirmed. The presented activity and stability justify the classification of both xylanases as highly interesting for further development.

Abstract
The genus Flavobacterium contains a large group of commensal bacteria identified in diverse terrestrial and aquatic habitats. We compared the genome of a new species Flavobacterium akiainvivens IK-1T to public available genomes of Flavobacterium species to reveal the genomic traits and ecological roles of IK-1T. Principle component analysis (PCA) of carbohydrate-active enzyme classes suggests that IK-1T belongs to a terrestrial clade of Flavobacterium. In addition, type 2 and type 9 secretion systems involved in bacteria-environment interactions were identified in the IK-1T genome. The IK-1T genome encodes eukaryotic-like domain containing proteins including ankyrin repeats, von Willebrand factor type A domain, and major royal jelly proteins, suggesting that IK-1T may alter plant host physiology by secreting eukaryotic-like proteins that mimic host proteins. A novel two-component system FaRpfC-FaYpdB was identified in the IK-1T genome, which may mediate quorum sensing to regulate global gene expressions. Our findings suggest that comparative genome analyses of Flavobacterium spp. reveal that IK-1T has adapted to a terrestrial niche. Further functional characterizations of IK-1T secreted proteins and their regulation systems will shed light on molecular basis of bacteria-plant interactions in environments.

Abstract
Although considerable progress has been made in recent years regarding the classification of bacteria assigned to the phylum Bacteroidetes, there remains a need to further clarify taxonomic relationships within a diverse assemblage that includes organisms of clinical, piscicultural, and ecological importance. Bacteroidetes classification has proved to be difficult, not least when taxonomic decisions rested heavily on interpretation of poorly resolved 16S rRNA gene trees and a limited number of phenotypic features. Here, draft genome sequences of a greatly enlarged collection of genomes of more than 1,000 Bacteroidetes and outgroup type strains were used to infer phylogenetic trees from genome-scale data using the principles drawn from phylogenetic systematics. The majority of taxa were found to be monophyletic but several orders, families and genera, including taxa proposed long ago such as Bacteroides, Cytophaga, and Flavobacterium but also quite recent taxa, as well as a few species were shown to be in need of revision. According proposals are made for the recognition of new orders, families and genera, as well as the transfer of a variety of species to other genera. In addition, emended descriptions are given for many species mainly involving information on DNA G+C content and (approximate) genome size, both of which can be considered valuable taxonomic markers. We detected many incongruities when comparing the results of the present study with existing classifications, which appear to be caused by insufficiently resolved 16S rRNA gene trees or incomplete taxon sampling. The few significant incongruities found between 16S rRNA gene and whole genome trees underline the pitfalls inherent in phylogenies based upon single gene sequences and the impediment in using ordinary bootstrapping in phylogenomic studies, particularly when combined with too narrow gene selections. While a significant degree of phylogenetic conservation was detected in all phenotypic characters investigated, the overall fit to the tree varied considerably, which is one of the probable causes of misclassifications in the past, much like the use of plesiomorphic character states as diagnostic features.

Abstract
In bacteria from the phylum Bacteroidetes, the genes coding for enzymes involved in polysaccharide degradation are often colocalized and coregulated in so-called “polysaccharide utilization loci” (PULs). PULs dedicated to the degradation of marine polysaccharides (e.g. laminaran, ulvan, alginate and porphyran) have been characterized in marine bacteria. Interestingly, the gut microbiome of Japanese individuals acquired, by lateral transfer from marine bacteria, the genes involved in the breakdown of porphyran, the cell wall polysaccharide of the red seaweed used in maki. Sequence similarity analyses predict that the human gut microbiome also encodes enzymes for the degradation of alginate, the main cell wall polysaccharide of brown algae. We undertook the functional characterization of diverse polysaccharide lyases from family PL17, frequently found in marine bacteria as well as those of human gut bacteria. We demonstrate here that this family is polyspecific. Our phylogenetic analysis of family PL17 reveals that all alginate lyases, which have all the same specificity and mode of action, cluster together in a very distinct subfamily. The alginate lyases found in human gut bacteria group together in a single clade which is rooted deeply in the PL17 tree. These enzymes were found in PULs containing PL6 enzymes, which also clustered together in the phylogenetic tree of PL6. Together, biochemical and bioinformatics analyses suggest that acquisition of this system appears ancient and, because only traces of two successful transfers were detected upon inspection of PL6 and PL17 families, the pace of acquisition of marine polysaccharide degradation system is probably very slow.

Comparative genome analysis of Bacillus velezensis reveals a potential for degrading lignocellulosic biomass. 3 Biotech 2018; 8:253. [PMID: 29765811 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-018-1270-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2018] [Accepted: 04/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Genomes of 24 sequenced Bacillus velezensis strains were characterized to identity shared and unique genes of lignocellulolytic enzymes and predict potential to degrade lignocellulose. All 24 strains had genes that encoded lignocellulolytic enzymes, with potential to degrade cellulose and hemicelluloses. Several lignocellulosic genes related to cellulose degradation were universally present, including one GH5 (endo-1,4-β-glucanase), one GH30 (glucan endo-1,6-β-glucosidase), two GH4 (6-phospho-β-glucosidase, 6-phospho-α-glucosidase), one GH1 (6-phospho-β-galactosidase), one GH16 (β-glucanase) and three GH32 (two sucrose-6-phosphate hydrolase and levanase). However, in the absence of gene(s) for cellobiohydrolase, it was predicted that none of the 24 strains would be able to directly hydrolyse cellulose. Regarding genes for hemicellulose degradation, four GH43 (1,4-β-xylosidase; except strain 9912D), one GH11 (endo-1,4-β-xylanase), three GH43 (two arabinan endo-1,5-α-L-arabinosidase and one arabinoxylan arabinofuranohydrolase), two GH51 (α-N-arabinofuranosidase), one GH30 (glucuronoxylanase), one GH26 (β-mannosidase) and one GH53 (arabinogalactan endo-1,4-β-galactosidase) were present. In addition, two PL1 (pectate lyase) and one PL9 (pectate lyase) with potential for pectin degradation were conserved among all 24 strains. In addition, all 24 Bacillus velezensis had limited representation of the auxiliary activities super-family, consistent with a limited ability to degrade lignin. Therefore, it was predicted that for these bacteria to degrade lignin, pretreatment of lignocellulosic substrates may be required. Finally, based on in silico studies, we inferred that Bacillus velezensis strains may degrade a range of polysaccharides in lignocellulosic biomasses.

Cai H, Zeng Y. High-quality draft genome sequence of Aquidulcibacter paucihalophilus TH1-2 T isolated from cyanobacterial aggregates in a eutrophic lake. Stand Genomic Sci 2017; 12:69. [PMID: 29213356 PMCID: PMC5712168 DOI: 10.1186/s40793-017-0284-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2017] [Accepted: 11/21/2017] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Aquidulcibacter paucihalophilus TH1–2T is a member of the family Caulobacteraceae within Alphaproteobacteria isolated from cyanobacterial aggregates in a eutrophic lake. The draft genome comprises 3,711,627 bp and 3489 predicted protein-coding genes. The genome of strain TH1–2T has 270 genes encoding peptidases. And metallo and serine peptidases were found most frequently. A high number of genes encoding carbohydrate active enzymes (141 CAZymes) also present in strain TH1–2T genome. Among CAZymes, 47 glycoside hydrolase families, 37 glycosyl transferase families, 38 carbohydrate esterases families, nine auxiliary activities families, seven carbohydrate-binding modules families, and three polysaccharide lyases families were identified. Accordingly, strain TH1–2T has a high number of transporters (91), the dominated ones are ATP-binding cassette transporters (61) and TonB-dependent transporters (28). Major TBDTs are Group I, which consisted of transporters for various types of dissolved organic matter. These genome features indicate adaption to cyanobacterial aggregates microenvironments.

Abstract
Flavobacterium suncheonense is a member of the family Flavobacteriaceae in the phylum Bacteroidetes. Strain GH29-5T (DSM 17707T) was isolated from greenhouse soil in Suncheon, South Korea. F. suncheonense GH29-5T is part of the GenomicEncyclopedia ofBacteria andArchaea project. The 2,880,663 bp long draft genome consists of 54 scaffolds with 2739 protein-coding genes and 82 RNA genes. The genome of strain GH29-5T has 117 genes encoding peptidases but a small number of genes encoding carbohydrate active enzymes (51 CAZymes). Metallo and serine peptidases were found most frequently. Among CAZymes, eight glycoside hydrolase families, nine glycosyl transferase families, two carbohydrate binding module families and four carbohydrate esterase families were identified. Suprisingly, polysaccharides utilization loci (PULs) were not found in strain GH29-5T. Based on the coherent physiological and genomic characteristics we suggest that F. suncheonense GH29-5T feeds rather on proteins than saccharides and lipids.

Abstract
Strains of the genus Gramella (family Flavobacteriacae, phylum Bacteroidetes) were isolated from marine habitats such as tidal flat sediments, coastal surface seawater and sea urchins. Flavobacteriaceae have been shown to be involved in the decomposition of plant and algal polysaccharides. However, the potential to decompose polysaccharides may differ tremendously even between species of the same genus. Gramella echinicola KMM 6050(T) (DSM 19838(T)) and Gramella portivictoriae UST040801-001(T) (DSM 23547(T)) have genomes of similar lengths, similar numbers of protein coding genes and RNA genes. Both genomes encode for a greater number of peptidases compared to 'G. forsetii'. In contrast to the genome of 'G. forsetii', both genomes comprised a smaller set of CAZymes. Seven polysaccharide utilization loci were identified in the genomes of DSM 19838(T) and DSM 23547(T). Both Gramella strains hydrolyzed starch, galactomannan, arabinoxylan and hydroxyethyl-cellulose, but not pectin, chitosan and cellulose (Avicel). Galactan and xylan were hydrolyzed by strain DSM 19838(T), whereas strain DSM 23547(T) hydrolyzed pachyman and carboxy-methyl cellulose. Conclusively, both Gramella type strains exhibit characteristic physiological, morphological and genomic differences that might be linked to their habitat. Furthermore, the identified enzymes mediating polysaccharide decomposition, are of biotechnological interest.
