Complete genome sequence of Erythrobacter litoralis HTCC2594.

ABSTRACT: Erythrobacter litoralis has been known as a bacteriochlorophyll a-containing, aerobic, anoxygenic, phototrophic bacterium. Here we announce the complete genome sequence of E. litoralis HTCC2594, which is devoid of phototrophic potential. E. litoralis HTCC2594, isolated by dilution-to-extinction culturing from seawater, could not carry out aerobic anoxygenic phototrophy and lacked genes for bacteriochlorophyll a biosynthesis and photosynthetic reaction center proteins.

Regulation of the Erythrobacter litoralis DSM 8509 general stress response by visible light.

Project description:Extracytoplasmic function (ECF) sigma factors are environmentally responsive transcriptional regulators. In Alphaproteobacteria, ?EcfG activates general stress response (GSR) transcription and protects cells from multiple stressors. A phosphorylation-dependent protein partner switching mechanism, involving HWE/HisKA_2-family histidine kinases, underlies ?EcfG activation. The identity of these sensor kinases and the signals that regulate them remain largely uncharacterized. We have developed the aerobic anoxygenic photoheterotroph (AAP), Erythrobacter litoralis DSM 8509, as a comparative genetic model to investigate GSR. Using this system, we sought to define the role of visible light and a photosensory HWE kinase, LovK, in regulation of GSR transcription. We identified three HWE kinase genes that collectively control GSR: gsrK and lovK are activators, while gsrP is a repressor. In wild-type cells, GSR transcription is activated in the dark and nearly off in the light, and the opposing activities of gsrK and gsrP are sufficient to modulate GSR transcription in response to illumination. In the absence of gsrK and gsrP, lovK alone is sufficient to activate GSR transcription. lovK is a more robust activator in the dark, and light-dependent regulation by LovK requires that its N-terminal LOV domain be photochemically active. Our studies establish a role for visible light and an ensemble of HWE kinases in light-dependent regulation of GSR transcription in E. litoralis.

An unexpected similarity between antibiotic-resistant NDM-1 and beta-lactamase II from Erythrobacter litoralis.

Project description:NDM-1 (New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase) gene encodes a metallo-beta-lactamase (MBL) with high carbapenemase activity, which makes the host bacterial strain easily dispatch the last-resort antibiotics known as carbapenems and cause global concern. Here we present the bioinformatics data showing an unexpected similarity between NDM-1 and beta-lactamase II from Erythrobacter litoralis, a marine microbial isolate. We have further expressed these two mature proteins in E. coli cells, both of which present as a monomer with a molecular mass of 25 kDa. Antimicrobial susceptibility assay reveals that they share similar substrate specificities and are sensitive to aztreonam and tigecycline. The conformational change accompanied with the zinc binding visualized by nuclear magnetic resonance, Zn(2+)-bound NDM-1, adopts at least some stable tertiary structure in contrast to the metal-free protein. Our work implies a close evolutionary relationship between antibiotic resistance genes in environmental reservoir and in the clinic, challenging the antimicrobial resistance monitoring.

Genome sequence of the marine photoheterotrophic bacterium Erythrobacter sp. strain NAP1.

Project description:Here we report the full genome sequence of marine phototrophic bacterium Erythrobacter sp. strain NAP1. The 3.3-Mb genome contains a full set of photosynthetic genes organized in one 38.9-kb cluster; however, it does not contain genes for CO(2) or N(2) fixation, thereby confirming that the organism is a photoheterotroph.
