宏基因组学在发现新基因方面的应用 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
现代分子微生物生态学研究表明,自然环境中约99%的微生物不能用传统的分离培养方法获得其纯培养,使得环境微生物中的多样性基因资源难以得到充分的开发和应用.宏基因组学是近年来发展起来的,通过直接提取特定环境中全部微生物的总基因组DNA并克隆到合适的可培养微生物宿主中,来筛选目的基因的方法.它已在微生物新功能基因筛选、活性物质开发和微生物多样性研究等方面取得了显著成果.该文旨在介绍宏基因组学在新功能基因发现方面的应用概况并结合我们的研究情况,对这一崭新领域中的最近研究进展进行简要综述. 相似文献

土壤宏基因组学技术及其应用 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
传统的基于培养的研究方法只能反映土壤中少数(0.1%~10 %)微生物的信息,而大部分微生物目前还不能培养,因而这部分微生物资源尚难以被有效地开发利用.宏基因组学是分子生物学技术应用于环境微生物生态学研究而形成的一个新概念,主要技术包括土壤DNA的提取、文库的构建和目标基因克隆的筛选.它可为揭示微生物生态功能及其分子基础提供更全面的遗传信息,并已在微生物新功能基因筛选、活性物质开发和微生物多样性研究等方面取得了显著成果.本文对土壤宏基因组学技术的方法和应用作了详细介绍. 相似文献

A critical step in the process of metagenome analysis is to screen for clones that contain specific genes among a large number of clones. To form one of the sequence-based screening tools of a metagenome library, we designed a format of microarray [metagenome microarray (MGA)] that is arrayed with fosmid library clone DNA samples on a glass slide. We evaluated the MGA using random prime labeled fluorescent probes prepared from PCR products of the target gene and found that we could obtain specific hybridization signals only for the fosmid clone that contained the target gene. We found that the detection limit of the MGA was c. 10 ng microL(-1) of fosmid clone DNA, and that the MGA-based hybridization was quantitative within a concentration range of 10-200 ng microL(-1) of fosmid clone DNA. We used the MGA successfully to identify two fosmid clones that contained 16S rRNA genes from a fosmid library from the sediment of the East Sea, Korea. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that the MGA can be used for screening for fosmid clones containing specific genes in a metagenome library, and that this technology has potential application as a high-throughput metagenome screening tool. 相似文献

The total number of prokaryotic cells on earth has been estimated to be approximately 4–6 × 1030, with the majority of these being uncharacterized. This diversity represents a vast genetic bounty that may be exploited for the discovery of novel genes, entire metabolic pathways and potentially valuable end‐products thereof. Metagenomics constitutes the functional and sequence‐based analysis of the collective microbial genomes (microbiome) in a particular environment or environmental niche. Herein, we review the most recent sequence‐based metagenomic analyses of some of the most microbiologically diverse locations on earth; including soil, marine water and the insect and human gut. Such studies have helped to uncover several previously unknown facts; from the true microbial diversity of extreme environments to the actual extent of symbiosis that exists in the insect and human gut. In this respect, metagenomics has and will continue to play an essential part in the new and evolving area of microbial systems biology. 相似文献

微生物在生物圈中分布广泛,并且在地球物质循环中占有重要地位,但是约99﹪的微生物目前还不能通过传统的培养方法得到纯培养物(即未培养微生物),给这些未培养微生物的研究带来很大的困难。随着分子生物学的快速发展及其在微生物研究中的广泛运用,促进了以环境中未培养微生物为研究对象的新兴学科--环境基因组学的产生和发展。在不进行相关微生物培养分离的情况下,通过从环境样品中直接提取获得所有微小生物的全部遗传物质,并构建环境基因组文库;进一步利用功能基因组学研究策略,从文库中寻找编码产生新的有生物活性产物的基因;通过对系统发育相关锚定位点基因序列分析,从而确定特定生态环境体系中未培养微生物的种类结构组成及进化地位,并最终重建该体系中微生物群体的基本物质循环模式。此外,环境基因组学也可以在对未培养微生物生理生化特性深入了解的基础上,建立发展合适的培养体系,最终获得某些特定微生物的纯培养物。本文对环境基因组的构建及相关分析研究策略的进展进行了综述;同时介绍了其在微生物分类及生态学研究的应用。 相似文献

The development of next-generation sequencing(NGS) platforms spawned an enormous volume of data. This explosion in data has unearthed new scalability challenges for existing bioinformatics tools. The analysis of metagenomic sequences using bioinformatics pipelines is complicated by the substantial complexity of these data. In this article, we review several commonly-used online tools for metagenomics data analysis with respect to their quality and detail of analysis using simulated metagenomics data. There are at least a dozen such software tools presently available in the public domain. Among them, MGRAST, IMG/M, and METAVIR are the most well-known tools according to the number of citations by peer-reviewed scientific media up to mid-2015. Here, we describe 12 online tools with respect to their web link, annotation pipelines, clustering methods, online user support, and availability of data storage. We have also done the rating for each tool to screen more potential and preferential tools and evaluated five best tools using synthetic metagenome. The article comprehensively deals with the contemporary problems and the prospects of metagenomics from a bioinformatics viewpoint. 相似文献

Syngas fermentation is largely dependent on acetogens that occur in various anaerobic environmental samples including soil, sediment, and feces. Here the authors report the metagenomic isolation of acetogens for C2 chemical production from syngas. Screening acetogens for C2 chemical production typically involves detecting the presence of the Wood‐Ljungdahl Pathway for carbon monoxide conversion. The authors collect samples from river‐bed sediments potentially having conditions suitable for carbon monoxide‐converting anaerobes, and enrich the samples under carbon monoxide selection pressure. Changes in the microbial community during the experimental procedure are investigated using both amplicon and shotgun metagenome sequencing. Combined next‐generation sequencing techniques enabl in situ tracking of the major acetogenic bacterial group and lead to the discovery of a 16 kb of gene cluster for WLP. The authors isolat an acetogenic clostridial strain from the enrichment culture (strain H21‐9). The functional activity of H21‐9 is confirmed by its high level of production of C2 chemicals from carbon monoxide (77.4 mM acetate and 2.5 mM of ethanol). This approach of incorporating experimental enrichment with metagenomic analysis can facilitate the discovery of novel strains from environmental habitats by tracking target strains during the screening process, combined with validation of their functional activity. 相似文献
