变性梯度凝胶电泳(DGGE)在微生物生态学中的应用

由于从环境样品中分离和培养细菌的困难,分子生物学方法已发展用来描述和鉴定微生物群落。近年来基于DNA方法的群落分析得到了迅速的发展,如PCR扩增技术,克隆文库法,荧光原位杂交法,限制性酶切片段长度多态性法,变性和温度梯度凝胶电泳法。DGGE已广泛用于分析自然环境中细菌、蓝细菌,古菌、微微型真核生物、真核生物和病毒群落的生物多样性。这一技术能够提供群落中优势种类信息和同时分析多个样品。具有可重复和容易操作等特点,适合于调查种群的时空变化,并且可通过对切下的带进行序列分析或与特异性探针杂交分析鉴定群落成员。DGGE分析微生物群落的一般步骤如下：一是核酸的提取,二是16S rRNA,18S rRNA或功能基因如可容性甲烷加单氧酶羟化酶基因(mmoX)和氨加单氧酶a一亚单位基因(amoA)片段的扩增,三是通过DGGE分析PCR产物。DGGE使用具有化学变性剂梯度的聚丙烯酰胺凝胶,该凝胶能够有区别的解链PCR扩增产物。由PCR产生的不同的DNA片段长度相同但核苷酸序列不同。因此不同的双链DNA片段由于沿着化学梯度的不同解链行为将在凝胶的不同位置上停止迁移。DNA解链行为的不同导致一个凝胶带图案,该图案是微生物群落中主要种类的一个轮廓。DGGE使用所有生物中保守的基因片段如细菌中的16S rRNA基因片段和真菌中的18S rRNA基因片段。然而同其他分子生物学方法一样,DGGE也有缺陷,其中之一是只能分离较小的片段,使用于系统发育分析比较和探针设计的序列信息量受到了限制。在某些情况下,由于所用基因的多拷贝导致一个种类多于一条带,因此不易鉴定群落结构到种的水平。此外,该技术具有内在的如单一细菌种类16S rDNA拷贝之间的异质性问题,可导致自然群落中微生物数量的过多估计。DGGE是分析微生物群落的一种有力的工具。不过为了减少DGGE和其它技术的缺陷,建议研究者结合DGGE和其它分子及微生物学方法以便更详细的观察微生物的群落结构和功能。

Study of microbial community structures in UASB sludge treating municipal wastewater by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis of 16S rDNA

The structures of microbial communities in lab-scale upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactors for treating municipal wastewater with different ratios of COD soluble/COD total were studied using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of 16S rRNA genes.The microbial structure of the inoculum sludge obtained from a full-scale UASB reactor of treating potato processing wastewater was compared with the structures of sludges collected from three lab-scale UASB reactors after eight months feeding with raw municipal wastewater, with CEPS (chemically enhanced primary sedimentation) pretreated municipal wastewater, and with a synthetic municipal sewage, respectively. Computer-aided numerical analysis of the DGGE fingerprints showed that the bacterial community underwent major changes. The sludges for treating raw and CEPS pretreated wastewater had very similar bacterial and archaeal communities (82%and 96% similarity) but were different from that for treating the synthetic sewage. Hence, despite similar % COD in the particulate form in the synthetic and the real wastewater, the two wastewaters were selected for different microbial communities. Prominent DGGE bands of Bacteria and Archaea were purified and sequenced. The 16S rRNA gene sequences of the dominant archaeal bands found in the inoculum, and UASB sludge fed with raw sewage, CEPS pretreated wastewater, and synthetic sewage were closely associated with Methanosaeta concilii. In the UASB sludge fed with synthetic sewage, another dominant band associated with an uncultured archaeon 39-2 was found together with M. concilii.

Development and application of a PCR-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis tool to study the diversity of Nitrobacter-like nxrA sequences in soil

A new PCR-denaturing gel gradient electrophoresis (DGGE) tool based on the functional gene nxrA encoding the catalytic subunit of the nitrite oxidoreductase in nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB) has been developed. The first aim was to determine if the primers could target representatives of NOB genera: Nitrococcus and Nitrospira. The primers successfully amplified nxrA gene sequences from Nitrococcus mobilis, but not from Nitrospira marina. The second aim was to develop a PCR-DGGE tool to characterize NOB community structure on the basis of Nitrobacter-like partial nrxA gene sequences (Nb-nxrA). We tested (1) the ability of this tool to discriminate between Nitrobacter strains, and (2) its ability to reveal changes in the community structure of NOB harbouring Nb-nrxA sequences induced by light grazing or intensive grazing in grassland soils. The DGGE profiles clearly differed between the four Nitrobacter strains tested. Differences in the structure of NOB community were revealed between grazing regimes. Phylogenetic analysis of the sequences corresponding to different DGGE bands showed that Nb-nxrA sequences did not group in management-specific clusters. Most of the nxrA sequences obtained from soils differed from nxrA sequences of NOB strains. Along with existing tools for characterizing the community structure of nitrifiers, this new approach is a significant step forward to performing comprehensive studies on nitrification.

Autochthonous bacterial flora indicated by PCR-DGGE of 16S rRNA gene fragments from the alimentary tract of Costelytra zealandica (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)

Aims: To locate and identify putative autochthonous bacteria within the grass grub gut that may have a role in symbiosis. Methods and Results: Polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) fingerprinting was used to investigate bacterial diversity in the grass grub larval gut. The microbial community profiles from five geographically distinct populations were compared and the influence of feeding was analysed. Bacterial community in the midgut was highly variable between locations and was affected by feeding. The hindgut contained a more diverse but stable bacterial community that was less affected by external conditions. Forty-seven distinct DGGE bands, representing different bacterial genotypes, could be distinguished from all samples, with 34 different bands occurring in the hindgut. The 22 most common bands were isolated and DNA was sequenced. Sequence analysis revealed that most bacteria (16/22) were affiliated to the Clostridiales with the predominant bacteria affiliated to the genus Clostridium. The remaining bacteria were aligned to the Betaproteobacteria, Deltaproteobacteria and Bacteroidetes. Conclusions: The grass grub larva has an autochthonous microflora with predominance of Clostridium spp. in the hindgut. Significance and Impact of the Study: Occurrence of an autocthonous microflora in the grass grub hindgut suggests a symbiotic relationship which could help explain the ability of larval scarabs to feed on recalcitrant organic matter.     

Impacts of single‐walled carbon nanotubes on microbial community structure in activated sludge

Aims: Single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are likely to become increasingly widespread and yet their environmental impact is not well understood. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the impact of SWNTs on microbial communities in a ‘sentinel’ environmental system, activated sludge batch‐scale reactors. Methods and Results: Triplicate batch reactors were exposed to SWNTs and compared to control reactors exposed to impurities associated with SWNTs. Automated ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis (ARISA) was used to assess bacterial community structure in each reactor. SWNT exposure was found to impact microbial community structure, while SWNT‐associated impurities had no effect, compared to controls. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that dominant phylotypes detected by ARISA included members of the families Sphingomonadaceae and Cytophagacaceae and the genus Zoogloea. ARISA results indicated an adverse impact of SWNTs on the sphingomonad relative to other community members. Changes in community structure also occurred in both SWNT‐exposed and control reactors over the experimental time period and with the date on which activated sludge was obtained from a wastewater treatment facility. Conclusions: These results indicate that SWNTs differentially impact members of the activated sludge reactor bacterial community. Significance and Impact of the Study: The finding that community structure was affected by SWNTs indicates that this emerging contaminant differentially impacted members of the activated sludge bacterial community and raises the concern that SWNTs may also affect the services it provides.
