Cells of Rhv. sulfidophilum were grown under different conditions in the presence of 32P-phosphate and the corresponding H and L membrane fractions obtained and fractionated by SDS-PAGE. Both membranes showed
almost identical polypeptide composition. The bacteriochlorophyll (Bchl) specific content in H was always lower that in L.
As described before, oxygen did not regulate gene expression. Under high light, an almost two- to threefold decrease of the
cellular specific Bchl content was observed. Pulse and chase experiments showed that transitions from aerobiosis to light-anaerobiosis
did not quantitatively affect the Bchl content of the membranes, although a turnover of the 32P-phosphate and 35S-methionine was observed. LHI β was the only polypeptidic subunit of the Bchl-binding polypeptides that was phosphorylated
in vivo, and phosphotyrosine was the only phosphorylated amino acid detectable. The phosphorylated LHI β was determined to
be insoluble in the organic solvent mixture of (vol/vol) 1:1 chloroform-methanol containing ammonium acetate (0.1 m final
concentration). Treatment with a chaotropic agent such as Na2CO3 solubilized the phosphorylated LHI β, indicating that part of this posttranslationally modified polypeptide was not inserted
in a transmembrane position. These results were used to speculate about the regulatory properties of this posttranslational
modification of LHI β on membrane differentiation.

Stressful conditions prevailing in hydrocarbon-contaminated sites influence the diversity, distribution, and activities of microorganisms. Oil bioremediation agents should develop special characteristics to cope with these environments like surfactant production and cellular affinity to hydrocarbons. Additionally, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) accumulation was proven to improve tolerance to stressful conditions. Pseudomonas sp. KA-08 was isolated from a chronic oil-contaminated environment, it is highly tolerant to xylene, and it is able to accumulate PHA and to produce surfactant compounds that lower the water surface tension (ST) as well as bioemulsifiers. In this work, we studied the effect of the capability to accumulate PHAs on biosurfactant production and microbial attachment to hydrocarbons (MATH). Our results showed that PHA synthesis capability has a favorable effect in the production of compounds which affect the ST but not on the production of bioemulsifiers. On the other hand, PHA accumulation affects cellular affinity to xylene. MATH analysis showed that a PHA-negative mutant increased its affinity to xylene compared with the wild-type strain. This result was also observed in Pseudomonas putida GPp104 (a PHA? mutant), suggesting that this effect could be generalized to other Pseudomonas strains. 相似文献

Pseudomonas extremaustralis 14-3b presents genes involved in the synthesis of different polyhydroxyalkanoates, in tolerance and degradation of pollutants, and in microaerobic metabolism. Several genomic islands were detected. Genetic machinery could contribute to the adaptability to stressful conditions. This is the first genome sequence reported from a Pseudomonas isolated from cold environments. 相似文献

Diesel is a widely distributed pollutant. Bioremediation of this kind of compounds requires the use of microorganisms able to survive and adapt to contaminated environments. Pseudomonas extremaustralis is an Antarctic bacterium with a remarkable survival capability associated to polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) production. This strain was used to investigate the effect of cell growth conditions--in biofilm versus shaken flask cultures--as well as the inocula characteristics associated with PHAs accumulation, on diesel degradation. Biofilms showed increased cell growth, biosurfactant production and diesel degradation compared with that obtained in shaken flask cultures. PHA accumulation decreased biofilm cell attachment and enhanced biosurfactant production. Degradation of long-chain and branched alkanes was observed in biofilms, while in shaken flasks only medium-chain length alkanes were degraded. This work shows that the PHA accumulating bacterium P. extremaustralis can be a good candidate to be used as hydrocarbon bioremediation agent, especially in extreme environments. 相似文献

Diesel fuel is one of the most important sources of hydrocarbon contamination worldwide. Its composition consists of a complex mixture of n-alkanes, branched alkanes and aromatic compounds. Hydrocarbon degradation in Pseudomonas species has been mostly studied under aerobic conditions; however, a dynamic spectrum of oxygen availability can be found in the environment. Pseudomonas extremaustralis, an Antarctic bacterium isolated from a pristine environment, is able to degrade diesel fuel and presents a wide microaerophilic metabolism. In this work RNA-deep sequence experiments were analyzed comparing the expression profile in aerobic and microaerophilic cultures. Interestingly, genes involved in alkane degradation, including alkB, were over-expressed in micro-aerobiosis in absence of hydrocarbon compounds. In minimal media supplemented with diesel fuel, n-alkanes degradation (C13–C19) after 7 days was observed under low oxygen conditions but not in aerobiosis. In-silico analysis of the alkB promoter zone showed a putative binding sequence for the anaerobic global regulator, Anr. Our results indicate that some diesel fuel components can be utilized as sole carbon source under microaerophilic conditions for cell maintenance or slow growth in a Pseudomonas species and this metabolism could represent an adaptive advantage in polluted environments. 相似文献
