A nearly complete genome sequence of Candidatus 'Acetothermum autotrophicum', a presently uncultivated bacterium in candidate division OP1, was revealed by metagenomic analysis of a subsurface thermophilic microbial mat community. Phylogenetic analysis based on the concatenated sequences of proteins common among 367 prokaryotes suggests that Ca. 'A. autotrophicum' is one of the earliest diverging bacterial lineages. It possesses a folate-dependent Wood-Ljungdahl (acetyl-CoA) pathway of CO(2) fixation, is predicted to have an acetogenic lifestyle, and possesses the newly discovered archaeal-autotrophic type of bifunctional fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase/phosphatase. A phylogenetic analysis of the core gene cluster of the acethyl-CoA pathway, shared by acetogens, methanogens, some sulfur- and iron-reducers and dechlorinators, supports the hypothesis that the core gene cluster of Ca. 'A. autotrophicum' is a particularly ancient bacterial pathway. The habitat, physiology and phylogenetic position of Ca. 'A. autotrophicum' support the view that the first bacterial and archaeal lineages were H(2)-dependent acetogens and methanogenes living in hydrothermal environments. 相似文献

Four neutral sesquiterpenes were isolated from the culture filtrate of of Aspergillus terreus THOM NO. 14 which produces two sesquiterpene antibiotics, terrecyclic acid A and terrecyclol. On the basis of spectroscopic data the structures of four neutral sesquiterpenes were elucidated. One of these is quadrone, a known antitumor substance, but isoquadrone, 8-hydroxyquadrone and 6-hydroxyisoquadrone are new sesquiterpenes. Although terrecyclic acid A exhibits antimicrobial and antitumor activities, these four scarcely show these activities. 相似文献

Finegoldia magna (formerly Peptostreptococcus magnus), a memberof the Gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC), is a commensalbacterium colonizing human skin and mucous membranes. Moreover,it is also recognized as an opportunistic pathogen responsiblefor various infectious diseases. Here, we report the completegenome sequence of F. magna ATCC 29328. The genome consistsof a 1 797 577 bp circular chromosome and an 189 163bp plasmid (pPEP1). The metabolic maps constructed based onthe genome information confirmed that most F. magna strainscannot ferment most sugars, except fructose, and have variousaminopeptidase activities. Three homologs of albumin-bindingprotein, a known virulence factor useful for antiphagocytosis,are encoded on the chromosome, and one albumin-binding proteinhomolog is encoded on the plasmid. A unique feature of the genomeis that F. magna encodes many sortase genes, of which substratesmay be involved in bacterial pathogenesis, such as antiphagocytosisand adherence to the host cell. The plasmid pPEP1 encodes sevensortase and seven substrate genes, whereas the chromosome encodesfour sortase and 19 substrate genes. These plasmid-encoded sortasesmay play important roles in the pathogenesis of F. magna byenriching the variety of cell wall anchored surface proteins. 相似文献

We sequenced and analyzed the genome of a commensal Escherichia coli (E. coli) strain SE11 (O152:H28) recently isolated from feces of a healthy adult and classified into E. coli phylogenetic group B1. SE11 harbored a 4.8 Mb chromosome encoding 4679 protein-coding genes and six plasmids encoding 323 protein-coding genes. None of the SE11 genes had sequence similarity to known genes encoding phage- and plasmid-borne virulence factors found in pathogenic E. coli strains. The comparative genome analysis with the laboratory strain K-12 MG1655 identified 62 poorly conserved genes between these two non-pathogenic strains and 1186 genes absent in MG1655. These genes in SE11 were mostly encoded in large insertion regions on the chromosome or in the plasmids, and were notably abundant in genes of fimbriae and autotransporters, which are cell surface appendages that largely contribute to the adherence ability of bacteria to host cells and bacterial conjugation. These data suggest that SE11 may have evolved to acquire and accumulate the functions advantageous for stable colonization of intestinal cells, and that the adhesion-associated functions are important for the commensality of E. coli in human gut habitat.Key words: Escherichia coli, commensal, human gut, genome sequencing 相似文献

Natural rubber is synthesized as rubber particles in the latex, the fluid cytoplasm of laticifers, of Hevea brasiliensis. Although it has been found that natural rubber is biosynthesized through the mevalonate pathway, the involvement of an alternative 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway is uncertain. We obtained all series of the MEP pathway candidate genes by analyzing expressed sequence tag (EST) information and degenerate PCR in H. brasiliensis. Complementation experiments with Escherichia coli mutants were performed to confirm the functions of the MEP pathway gene products of H. brasiliensis together with those of Arabidopsis thaliana, and it was found that 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate reductoisomerase, 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate cytidylyltransferase, and 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase of H. brasiliensis were functionally active in the E. coli mutants. Gene expression analysis revealed that the expression level of the HbDXS2 gene in latex was relatively high as compared to those of other MEP pathway genes. However, a feeding experiment with [1-(13)C] 1-deoxy-D-xylulose triacetate, an intermediate derivative of the MEP pathway, indicated that the MEP pathway is not involved in rubber biosynthesis, but is involved in carotenoids biosynthesis in H. brasiliensis. 相似文献

The Human Intestinal Microbiome: A New Frontier of Human Biology 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To analyze the vast number and variety of microorganisms inhabitingthe human intestine, emerging metagenomic technologies are extremelypowerful. The intestinal microbes are taxonomically complexand constitute an ecologically dynamic community (microbiota)that has long been believed to possess a strong impact on humanphysiology. Furthermore, they are heavily involved in the maturationand proliferation of human intestinal cells, helping to maintaintheir homeostasis and can be causative of various diseases,such as inflammatory bowel disease and obesity. A simplifiedanimal model system has provided the mechanistic basis for themolecular interactions that occur at the interface between suchmicrobes and host intestinal epithelia. Through metagenomicanalysis, it is now possible to comprehensively explore thegenetic nature of the intestinal microbiome, the mutually interactingsystem comprising the host cells and the residing microbialcommunity. The human microbiome project was recently launchedas an international collaborative research effort to furtherpromote this newly developing field and to pave the way to anew frontier of human biology, which will provide new strategiesfor the maintenance of human health. 相似文献

We report the complete and annotated genome sequence of Bacillus cereus NC7401, a representative of the strain group that causes emetic-type food poisoning. The emetic toxin, cereulide, is produced by a nonribosomal protein synthesis (NRPS) system that is encoded by a gene cluster on a large resident plasmid, pNCcld. 相似文献
