Wetland ecosystems are the natural centers of freshwater formation in northern Russia lowland landscapes. The humic acidic waters formed in bogs feed the numerous lakes of the northern regions. One milliliter of the water in these lakes contains up to 104 ultrasmall microbial cells that pass through “bacterial” filters with a pore size of 0.22 μm. The vast majority of these cells do not grow on nutrient media and cannot be identified by routine cultivation-based approaches. Their identification was performed by analysis of clone libraries obtained by PCR amplification of archaeal and bacterial 16S rRNA genes from the fraction of cells collected from water filtrates of acidic lakes. Most of the obtained bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences represented the class Betaproteobacteria and exhibited the highest homology of (94–99%) with 16S rRNA genes of representatives of the genera Herbaspirillum, Herminiimonas, Curvibacter, and Burkholderia. The archaeal 16S rRNA gene clone library comprised genes of Euryarchaeota representatives. One-third of these genes exhibited 97–99% homology to the 16S rRNA genes of taxonomically described organisms of the orders Methanobacteriales and Methanosarcinales. The rest of the cloned archaeal 16S rRNA genes were only distantly related (71–74% homology) to those in all earlier characterized archaea. 相似文献

Members of the phylum Planctomycetes were originally described as freshwater bacteria. Most recent studies, however, address planctomycete diversity in other environments colonized by these microorganisms, including marine and terrestrial ecosystems. This study was initiated in order to revisit the specific patterns of planctomycete diversity in freshwater habitats using cultivation-independent approaches. The specific focus was made on planctomycetes associated with Nuphar lutea (L.) Smith, an emergent macrophyte with floating leaves, which is widespread in the Holarctic. As revealed by Illumina pair-end sequencing of 16S rRNA gene fragments, the bacterial assemblages colonizing floating leaf blades of waterlilies sampled from two different boreal lakes displayed similar composition but were distinct from the planktonic bacterial communities. 16S rRNA gene fragments from the Planctomycetes comprised 0.1–1 and 1–2.2% of total 16S rRNA gene reads retrieved from water samples and plant leaves, respectively. Planktonic planctomycetes were mostly affiliated with the class Planctomycetaceae (77–97%), while members of the Phycisphaerae were less abundant (3–22%). The relative proportion of the latter group, however, increased by 13–45% on leaves of N. lutea. The Phycisphaera-related group WD2101, Pirellula-like planctomycetes, as well as Gemmata, Zavarzinella and Planctopirus species were the most abundant groups of planctomycetes associated with plant leaves, which may suggest their involvement in the degradation of plant-derived organic matter. 相似文献

Phycisphaera-like WD2101 ‘soil group’ is one of the as-yet-uncultivated phylogenetic clades within the phylum Planctomycetes. Members of this clade are commonly detected in various terrestrial habitats. This study shows that WD2101 represented one of the major planctomycete groups in 10 boreal peatlands, comprising up to 76% and 36% of all Planctomycetes-affiliated 16S rRNA gene reads in raised bogs and eutrophic fens respectively. These types of peatlands displayed clearly distinct intra-group diversity of WD2101-affiliated planctomycetes. The first isolate of this enigmatic planctomycete group, strain M1803, was obtained from a humic lake surrounded by Sphagnum peat bogs. Strain M1803 displayed 89.2% 16S rRNA gene similarity to Tepidisphaera mucosa and was represented by motile cocci that divided by binary fission and grew under micro-oxic conditions. The complete 7.19 Mb genome of strain M1803 contained an array of genes encoding Planctomycetal type bacterial microcompartment organelle likely involved in l -rhamnose metabolism, suggesting participation of M1803-like planctomycetes in polysaccharide degradation in peatlands. The corresponding cellular microcompartments were revealed in ultrathin cell sections. Strain M1803 was classified as a novel genus and species, Humisphaera borealis gen. nov., sp. nov., affiliated with the formerly recognized WD2101 ‘soil group’. 相似文献

Background
The statistical modeling of biomedical corpora could yield integrated, coarse-to-fine views of biological phenomena that complement discoveries made from analysis of molecular sequence and profiling data. Here, the potential of such modeling is demonstrated by examining the 5,225 free-text items in the Caenorhabditis Genetic Center (CGC) Bibliography using techniques from statistical information retrieval. Items in the CGC biomedical text corpus were modeled using the Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) model. LDA is a hierarchical Bayesian model which represents a document as a random mixture over latent topics; each topic is characterized by a distribution over words. 相似文献5.

Northern peatlands represent a significant global carbon store and commonly originate from Sphagnum moss-dominated wetlands. These ombrotrophic ecosystems are rain fed, resulting in nutrient-poor, acidic conditions. Members of the bacterial phylum Planctomycetes are highly abundant and appear to play an important role in the decomposition of Sphagnum-derived litter in these ecosystems. High-performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution accurate-mass mass spectrometry (HPLC-HRAM/MS) analysis of lipid extracts of four isolated planctomycetes from wetlands of European north Russia revealed novel ornithine membrane lipids (OLs) that are mono-, di-, and trimethylated at the ε-nitrogen position of the ornithine head group. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis of the isolated trimethylornithine lipid confirmed the structural identification. Similar fatty acid distributions between mono-, di-, and trimethylornithine lipids suggest that the three lipid classes are biosynthetically linked, as in the sequential methylation of the terminal nitrogen in phosphatidylethanolamine to produce phosphatidylcholine. The mono-, di-, and trimethylornithine lipids described here represent the first report of methylation of the ornithine head groups in biological membranes. Various bacteria are known to produce OLs under phosphorus limitation or fatty-acid-hydroxylated OLs under thermal or acid stress. The sequential methylation of OLs, leading to a charged choline-like moiety in the trimethylornithine lipid head group, may be an adaptation to provide membrane stability under acidic conditions without the use of scarce phosphate in nutrient-poor ombrotrophic wetlands. 相似文献

Estimating the rate of evolution of the rate of molecular evolution 总被引:35,自引:13,他引:22
A simple model for the evolution of the rate of molecular evolution is
presented. With a Bayesian approach, this model can serve as the basis for
estimating dates of important evolutionary events even in the absence of
the assumption of constant rates among evolutionary lineages. The method
can be used in conjunction with any of the widely used models for
nucleotide substitution or amino acid replacement. It is illustrated by
analyzing a data set of rbcL protein sequences.

Meningococcal group C (MenC) plain polysaccharide (PS) and conjugate vaccines are primarily evaluated by physicochemical methods to ensure that batches are consistently manufactured. As different assays are employed to quantify the MenC PS content of final formulations and bulk intermediaries, there is a need for an International MenC PS Standard to calibrate internal references used in the different laboratories. Twelve laboratories from nine different countries participated in a collaborative study to determine the MenC PS content of a candidate International Standard MenC PS preparation (08/214) and to assess its suitability. On the basis of the results from this study the candidate standard 08/214 was established as an International Standard for the quantification of MenC PS content in vaccines and components. It has a content of 1.192 ± 0.192 mg MenC PS/ampoule (expanded uncertainty with coverage factor of k = 2.365 corresponding to a 95% level of confidence), as determined by the resorcinol assays carried out by eight of the participating laboratories. The standard is available from The National Institute of Biological Standards and Control who act as guardians and distributors of the material under the auspices of WHO. 相似文献

Background
Ensemble attribute profile clustering is a novel, text-based strategy for analyzing a user-defined list of genes and/or proteins. The strategy exploits annotation data present in gene-centered corpora and utilizes ideas from statistical information retrieval to discover and characterize properties shared by subsets of the list. The practical utility of this method is demonstrated by employing it in a retrospective study of two non-overlapping sets of genes defined by a published investigation as markers for normal human breast luminal epithelial cells and myoepithelial cells. 相似文献9.
Detection of representatives of the Planctomycetes in Sphagnum peat bogs by molecular and cultivation approaches 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
By means of fluorescence in situ hybridization with 16S rRNA-targeted oligonucleotide probes (FISH), it has been shown that members of the phylum Planctomycetes represent a numerically significant bacterial group in boreal Sphagnum peat bogs. The population size of planctomycetes in oxic layers of the peat bog profile was in the range of 0.4–2.0 × 107 cells per g of wet peat, comprising 4 to 13% of the total bacterial cell number. A novel effective approach that combined a traditional cultivation technique with FISH-mediated monitoring of the target organism during the isolation procedure has been developed for the isolation of planctomycetes. Using this approach, we succeeded in isolating several peat-inhabiting planctomycetes in a pure culture. Sequencing of the 16S rRNA genes from two of these isolates, strains A10 and MPL7, showed that they belonged to the planctomycete lineages defined by the genera Gemmata and Planctomyces, respectively. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strains A10 and MPL7 and the phylogenetically closest organisms, namely, Gemmata obscuriglobus and Planctomyces limnophilus, was only 90%. These results suggest that the indigenous planctomycetes inhabiting Sphagnum peat bogs are so far unknown organisms. 相似文献

Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) with rRNA-specific oligonucleotide probes was used to assess the numbers and phylogenetic
diversity of prokaryotic microorganisms in the water of small boreal lakes and peatland catchments of the swampy upper Volga
basin. The abundance of bacterioplankton in lake water was found to vary from 1.6 to 8.7 × 106 cells ml−1, with the highest values detected in neutral eutrophic lakes. The total cell numbers in the peat of ombrotrophic bogs were
3.9–4.3 × 108 cells g−1 of wet peat. The proportion of bacteria identified by the group-specific probes decreased from 79–85% in neutral (pH 6.6–6.9)
mesotrophic and eutrophic lakes to 65–69% in acidic (pH 4.4–5.5) dystrophic lakes and to 51–58% in the peat of acidic (pH
3.6–3.9) ombrotrophic bogs. The diversity of bacterial communities was highest in lakes with neutral water. These communities
were dominated by members of the phylum Actinobacteria (31–44% of the total bacterial number), while the contribution of Alphaproteobacteria (16–19%), Bacteroidetes (6–16%), Betaproteobacteria (6–7%), Planctomycetes (2–8%), and Gammaproteobacteria (4–5%) was also significant. In acidic dystrophic lakes, Actinobacteria (25–35%) and Betaproteobacteria (25–34%) predominated, while peatland catchments were dominated by the Alphaproteobacteria (20–23%). The presence of acidobacteria and some planctomycetes common for bogs in the water of acidic dystrophic lakes,
as well as the high proportion of bacteria (31–49%) that were not identified by the group-specific probes, suggest the impact
of microbial processes in peatland catchments on the microbial composition of the receiving waters. 相似文献
