Members of the phylum Bacteroidetes are abundant in many marine ecosystems and are known to have a pivotal role in the mineralization of complex organic substrates such as polysaccharides and proteins. We studied the decomposition of the algal glycans laminarin and alginate by ‘Gramella forsetii'' KT0803, a bacteroidetal isolate from North Sea surface waters. A combined application of isotope labeling, subcellular protein fractionation and quantitative proteomics revealed two large polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) that were specifically induced, one by alginate and the other by laminarin. These regulons comprised genes of surface-exposed proteins such as oligomer transporters, substrate-binding proteins, carbohydrate-active enzymes and hypothetical proteins. Besides, several glycan-specific TonB-dependent receptors and SusD-like substrate-binding proteins were expressed also in the absence of polysaccharide substrates, suggesting an anticipatory sensing function. Genes for the utilization of the beta-1,3-glucan laminarin were found to be co-regulated with genes for glucose and alpha-1,4-glucan utilization, which was not the case for the non-glucan alginate. Strong syntenies of the PULs of ‘G. forsetii'' with similar loci in other Bacteroidetes indicate that the specific response mechanisms of ‘G. forsetii'' to changes in polysaccharide availability likely apply to other Bacteroidetes. Our results can thus contribute to an improved understanding of the ecological niches of marine Bacteroidetes and their roles in the polysaccharide decomposition part of carbon cycling in marine ecosystems. 相似文献

Algae synthesise structurally complex glycans to build a protective barrier, the extracellular matrix. One function of matrix glycans is to slow down microorganisms that try to enzymatically enter living algae and degrade and convert their organic carbon back to carbon dioxide. We propose that matrix glycans lock up carbon in the ocean by controlling degradation of organic carbon by bacteria and other microbes not only while algae are alive, but also after death. Data revised in this review shows accumulation of algal glycans in the ocean underscoring the challenge bacteria and other microbes face to breach the glycan barrier with carbohydrate active enzymes. Briefly we also update on methods required to certify the uncertain magnitude and unknown molecular causes of glycan-controlled carbon sequestration in a changing ocean. 相似文献

Several unique Sus-like polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) were identified from bacteria resident in bovine rumen microbiomes through functional screening of a fosmid library. The loci were phylogenetically assigned to the genus Prevotella within the phylum Bacteroidetes. These findings were augmented by a bioinformatic re-evaluation of ruminal Prevotella genomes, revealing additional loci not previously reported in the literature. Analysis of Bacteroidales-affiliated genomes reconstructed from a bovine rumen metagenome in a previous study further expanded the diversity of Sus-like PULs resident in this microbiome. Our findings suggest that Sus-like systems represent an important mechanism for degradation of a range of plant-derived glycans in ruminants. 相似文献

Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP), a globally important organosulfur compound is produced in prodigious amounts (2.0 Pg sulfur) annually in the marine environment by phytoplankton, macroalgae, heterotrophic bacteria, some corals and certain higher plants. It is an important marine osmolyte and a major precursor molecule for the production of climate-active volatile gas dimethyl sulfide (DMS). DMSP synthesis take place via three pathways: a transamination ‘pathway-’ in some marine bacteria and algae, a Met-methylation ‘pathway-’ in angiosperms and bacteria and a decarboxylation ‘pathway-’ in the dinoflagellate, Crypthecodinium. The enzymes DSYB and TpMMT are involved in the DMSP biosynthesis in eukaryotes while marine heterotrophic bacteria engage key enzymes such as DsyB and MmtN. Several marine bacterial communities import DMSP and degrade it via cleavage or demethylation pathways or oxidation pathway, thereby generating DMS, methanethiol, and dimethylsulfoxonium propionate, respectively. DMSP is cleaved through diverse DMSP lyase enzymes in bacteria and via Alma1 enzyme in phytoplankton. The demethylation pathway involves four different enzymes, namely DmdA, DmdB, DmdC and DmdD/AcuH. However, enzymes involved in the oxidation pathway have not been yet identified. We reviewed the recent advances on the synthesis and catabolism of DMSP and enzymes that are involved in these processes. 相似文献

Occurrence of α-N-acetylgalactosaminidases among 177 strains of marine bacteria of the phylum Bacteroidetes, epiphytes of marine algae growing on the littoral of the Seas of Okhotsk and Japan, was studied. About 36% of the isolates studied contained α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase. All of the bacteria of the genus Arenibacter (species A. latericius, A. certesii, and A. palladensis), irrespective of the source of isolation, synthesized this enzyme. The greatest number of α-N-acetylgalactosaminidase producers was found among the isolates from the algae Neosiphonia japonica, Acrosiphonia sonderi, and Ulva fenestrata sampled in the Cove of Trinity, Posyet Bay, the Sea of Japan. These were mainly bacteria of the genera Zobellia (50%) and Maribacter (58%). Among the epibionts studied, the bacteria Arenibacter latericius KMM 3523, an epiphyte of the brown alga Chorda filum from the Sea of Okhotsk, and Cellulophaga sp. KMM 6488, an epiphyte of the green alga Acrosiphonia sonderi from the Sea of Japan, were marked as the most promising sources of the enzyme. The results of this study showed that aerobic nonpathogenic marine Bacteroidetes, algal associants not requiring special cultivation conditions, are the promising, economical, and ecologically pure sources of unique and biotechnologically significant α-N-acetylgalactosaminidases. 相似文献

Glycosidase activities of 177 strains of the phylum Bacteroidetes, belonging to 18 genera and isolated from the algae Chondrus sp., Polysiphonia sp., Neosiphonia japonica, Saccharina crassifolia, Saccharina japonica, Chorda filum, Acrosiphonia sonderi, and Ulva fenestrata collected in the littoral zones of the Sea of Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan, Pacific Ocean, were studied. According to the data obtained, glycosidases catalyzing hydrolysis of the ??-glycoside bond were present in over 70% epiphytes of marine algae. It should be noted that ??-galactosidases and the extremely rare enzymes, ??-N-acetylgalactosaminidases, were more frequent in the Bacteroidetes than in the proteobacteria analyzed previously. It was found that the overwhelming majority of the bacteria of the dominant genera Zobellia and Maribacter contained the complete set of the tested glycosidases involved in degradation of algal polysaccharides. Apparently, the presence of the wide range of glycosidases in bacterial strains of these genera makes it possible for them to occupy diverse ecological niches under extreme conditions of the tidal zone. However, such important enzymes of the microbial lytic complex as ??-galactosidases, ??-galactosidases, or ??-xylosidases, were not detected in the numerically important genus Winogradskyella. The noted difference in the metabolic profiles of the strains of these genera suggests the assumption that Winogradskyella strains play an unique role in the microbial communities, unrelated to the hydrolysis of such polysaccharides as agar and carrageenan. Significant differences in production of glycosidases among the different taxonomic groups were revealed, which is of importance for directed search of promising enzymes for biotechnology. 相似文献

Multiple xylanolytic enzymes of Streptomyces thermonitrificans NTU-88 were induced by oat-spelt xylan and separated by two-dimensional polyacrylamide and zymogram gels. Nineteen clear
spots differed in pI and molecular weight values were found on the zymogram, and only spot one was seen on the corresponding silver-stained gel.
These results revealed that multiple xylanases were secreted when S. thermonitrificans NTU-88 was induced and the spot (STXF10), identified as being a glycosyl hydrolase family 10 xylanase, was the predominant
one among xylanases. STXF10 showed a tolerance for high temperatures and broad pH ranges and high affinity and hydrolysis
efficiency for xylans. Furthermore, it also featured the minor ability to degrade different lignocellulosic substrates. Although
S. thermonitrificans NTU-88 possesses multiple xylanases, our results suggest that the major form of xylanase might be selectively and specifically
induced depending on the type of substrate to which the microorganism is exposed. 相似文献

Isoprene is a volatile and climate‐altering hydrocarbon with an atmospheric concentration similar to that of methane. It is well established that marine algae produce isoprene; however, until now there was no specific information about marine isoprene sinks. Here we demonstrate isoprene consumption in samples from temperate and tropical marine and coastal environments, and furthermore show that the most rapid degradation of isoprene coincides with the highest rates of isoprene production in estuarine sediments. Isoprene‐degrading enrichment cultures, analysed by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and 454 pyrosequencing of the 16S rRNA gene and by culturing, were generally dominated by Actinobacteria, but included other groups such as Alphaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes, previously not known to degrade isoprene. In contrast to specialist methane‐oxidizing bacteria, cultivated isoprene degraders were nutritionally versatile, and nearly all of them were able to use n‐alkanes as a source of carbon and energy. We therefore tested and showed that the ubiquitous marine hydrocarbon‐degrader, Alcanivorax borkumensis, could also degrade isoprene. A mixture of the isolates consumed isoprene emitted from algal cultures, confirming that isoprene can be metabolized at low, environmentally relevant concentrations, and suggesting that, in the absence of spilled petroleum hydrocarbons, algal production of isoprene could maintain viable populations of hydrocarbon‐degrading microbes. This discovery of a missing marine sink for isoprene is the first step in obtaining more robust predictions of its flux, and suggests that algal‐derived isoprene provides an additional source of carbon for diverse microbes in the oceans. 相似文献

It has long been suspected that photoprotective mechanisms in green algae are similar to those in seed plants. However, exceptions have recently surfaced among aquatic and marine green algae in several taxonomic classes. Green algae are highly diverse genetically, falling into 13 named classes, and they are diverse ecologically, with many lineages including members from freshwater, marine, and terrestrial habitats. Genetically similar species living in dramatically different environments are potentially a rich source of information about variations in photoprotective function. Using aquatic and desert-derived species from three classes of green algae, we examined the induction of photoprotection under high light, exploring the relationship between nonphotochemical quenching and the xanthophyll cycle. In liquid culture, behavior of aquatic Entransia fimbriata (Klebsormidiophyceae) generally matched patterns observed in seed plants. Nonphotochemical quenching was lowest after overnight dark adaptation, increased with light intensity, and the extent of nonphotochemical quenching correlated with the extent of deepoxidation of xanthophyll cycle pigments. In contrast, overnight dark adaptation did not minimize nonphotochemical quenching in the other species studied: desert Klebsormidium sp. (Klebsormidiophyceae), desert and aquatic Cylindrocystis sp. (Zygnematophyceae), and desert Stichococcus sp. (Trebouxiophyceae). Instead, exposure to low light reduced nonphotochemical quenching below dark-adapted levels. De-epoxidation of xanthophyll cycle pigments paralleled light-induced changes in nonphotochemical quenching for species within Klebsormidiophyceae and Trebouxiophyceae, but not Zygnematophyceae. Inhibition of violaxanthin–zeaxanthin conversion by dithiothreitol reduced high-light-associated nonphotochemical quenching in all species (Zygnematophyceae the least), indicating that zeaxanthin can contribute to photoprotection as in seed plants but to different extents depending on taxon or lineage. 相似文献

Microbial characterization of toluene-degrading denitrifying consortia obtained from terrestrial and marine ecosystems 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The degradation characteristics of toluene coupled to nitrate reduction were investigated in enrichment culture and the microbial communities of toluene-degrading denitrifying consortia were characterized by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) technique. Anaerobic nitrate-reducing bacteria were enriched from oil-contaminated soil samples collected from terrestrial (rice field) and marine (tidal flat) ecosystems. Enriched consortia degraded toluene in the presence of nitrate as a terminal electron acceptor. The degradation rate of toluene was affected by the initial substrate concentration and co-existence of other hydrocarbons. The types of toluene-degrading denitrifying consortia depended on the type of ecosystem. The clone RS-7 obtained from the enriched consortium of the rice field was most closely related to a toluene-degrading and denitrifying bacterium, Azoarcus denitrificians (A. tolulyticus sp. nov.). The clone TS-11 detected in the tidal flat enriched consortium was affiliated to Thauera sp. strain S2 (T. aminoaromatica sp. nov.) that was able to degrade toluene under denitrifying conditions. This indicates that environmental factors greatly influence microbial communities obtained from terrestrial (rice field) and marine (tidal flat) ecosystems. 相似文献

Members of the flavobacterial genus Polaribacter thrive in response to North Sea spring phytoplankton blooms. We analyzed two respective Polaribacter species by whole genome sequencing, comparative genomics, substrate tests and proteomics. Both can degrade algal polysaccharides but occupy distinct niches. The liquid culture isolate Polaribacter sp. strain Hel1_33_49 has a 3.0-Mbp genome with an overall peptidase:CAZyme ratio of 1.37, four putative polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) and features proteorhodopsin, whereas the agar plate isolate Polaribacter sp. strain Hel1_85 has a 3.9-Mbp genome with an even peptidase:CAZyme ratio, eight PULs, a mannitol dehydrogenase for decomposing algal mannitol-capped polysaccharides but no proteorhodopsin. Unlike other sequenced Polaribacter species, both isolates have larger sulfatase-rich PULs, supporting earlier assumptions that Polaribacter take part in the decomposition of sulfated polysaccharides. Both strains grow on algal laminarin and the sulfated polysaccharide chondroitin sulfate. For strain Hel1_33_49, we identified by proteomics (i) a laminarin-induced PUL, (ii) chondroitin sulfate-induced CAZymes and (iii) a chondroitin-induced operon that likely enables chondroitin sulfate recognition. These and other data suggest that strain Hel1_33_49 is a planktonic flavobacterium feeding on proteins and a small subset of algal polysaccharides, while the more versatile strain Hel1_85 can decompose a broader spectrum of polysaccharides and likely associates with algae. 相似文献

The efficient degradation of complex xylans needs collaboration of many xylan degrading enzymes. Assays for xylan degrading activities based on reducing sugars or PNP substrates are not indicative for the presence of enzymes able to degrade complex xylans: They do not provide insight into the possible presence of xylanase-accessory enzymes within enzyme mixtures. A new screening method is described, by which specific xylan modifying enzymes can be detected.Fermentation supernatants of 78 different fungal soil isolates grown on wheat straw were analyzed by HPLC and MS. This strategy is powerful in recognizing xylanases, arabinoxylan hydrolases, acetyl xylan esterases and glucuronidases.No fungus produced all enzymes necessary to totally degrade the substrates tested. Some fungi produce high levels of xylanase active against linear xylan, but are unable to degrade complex xylans. Other fungi producing relative low levels of xylanase secrete many useful accessory enzyme component(s). 相似文献

Streptomyces sp. DSM 41796 produced four major extracellular xylanases with Mr of 145, 120, 60 and 45 kDa. Those of 145 and 60 kDa formed a heterodimer. All xylanases, except that of 120 kDa, were induced by xylose, d-arabinose or sucrose, while commercial xylans induced the 60 kDa xylanase in a major proportion than others, and sugar-cane bagasse pith or lemon peel induced predominantly the 45 kDa xylanase. 相似文献

Algal polysaccharides of diverse structures are one of the most abundant carbon resources for heterotrophic, marine bacteria with coevolved digestive enzymes. A putative sulfo‐mannan polysaccharide utilization locus, which is conserved in marine flavobacteria, contains an unusual GH99‐like protein that lacks the conserved catalytic residues of glycoside hydrolase family 99. Using X‐ray crystallography, we structurally characterized this protein from the marine flavobacterium Ochrovirga pacifica to help elucidate its molecular function. The structure reveals the absence of potential catalytic residues for polysaccharide hydrolysis, which—together with additional structural features—suggests this protein may be noncatalytic and involved in carbohydrate binding. 相似文献

Salt-Regulated Mannitol Metabolism in Algae 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mannitol, one of the most widely occurring sugar alcohol compounds, is found in bacteria, fungi, algae, and plants. In these
organisms the compound acts as a compatible solute and has multiple functions, including osmoregulation, storage, and regeneration
of reducing power, and scavenging of active oxygen species. Because of the diverse functions of mannitol, introducing the
ability to accumulate it has been a hallmark of attempts to generate highly salt-tolerant transgenic plants. However, transgenic
plants have not yet improved significantly in their salt tolerance. Recently, we purified and characterized 2 enzymes that
biosynthesize mannitol, mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (M1PDH) and mannitol-1-phosphate-specific phosphatase, from the
marine red alga Caloglossa continua, which grows in estuarine areas where tide levels fluctuate frequently. The activation of Caloglossa M1PDH is unique in that it is regulated by salt concentration at enzyme level. In this review we focus on the metabolism
of mannitol, mainly in marine photosynthetic organisms, and suggest how this might be applied to producing salt-tolerant transgenic
plants. 相似文献

Two thermophilic xylanases (xylanase II from Thielavia terrestris 255B and the 32-kDa xylanase from Thermoascus crustaceus 235E) were studied to determine if they had different and complementary modes of action when they hydrolysed various types of xylans. Partial amino acid sequencing showed that these two enzymes belonged to different families of -1,4-glycanases. Xylanase II achieved faster solubilization of insoluble xylan whereas the 32-kDa xylanase was more effective in producing xylose and short xylooligomers. An assessment of the combined hydrolytic action of the two xylanases did not reveal any co-operative action. The sugars released when the two thermophilic xylanases were used together were almost identical to those released when the 32-kDa xylanase acted alone. The two xylanases were able to remove about 12% of the xylan remaining in an aspen kraft pulp. This indicated that either one of these thermophilic enzymes may be useful for enhancing the bleaching of kraft pulps.
