Draft Genome Sequences of Three Clostridia Isolates Involved in Lactate-Based Chain Elongation.

ABSTRACT: Hitherto, few species have been reported to convert lactate to n-caproate. Here, we report the high-quality draft genomes of three Clostridia strains isolated on lactate as the sole carbon source. The genomes were assembled using a hybrid short- and long-read sequencing approach. The genes involved in lactate-based chain elongation were identified.

Three Novel Clostridia Isolates Produce n-Caproate and iso-Butyrate from Lactate: Comparative Genomics of Chain-Elongating Bacteria.

Project description:The platform chemicals n-caproate and iso-butyrate can be produced by anaerobic fermentation from agro-industrial residues in a process known as microbial chain elongation. Few lactate-consuming chain-elongating species have been isolated and knowledge on their shared genetic features is still limited. Recently we isolated three novel clostridial strains (BL-3, BL-4, and BL-6) that convert lactate to n-caproate and iso-butyrate. Here, we analyzed the genetic background of lactate-based chain elongation in these isolates and other chain-elongating species by comparative genomics. The three strains produced n-caproate, n-butyrate, iso-butyrate, and acetate from lactate, with the highest proportions of n-caproate (18%) for BL-6 and of iso-butyrate (23%) for BL-4 in batch cultivation at pH 5.5. They show high genomic heterogeneity and a relatively small core-genome size. The genomes contain highly conserved genes involved in lactate oxidation, reverse ?-oxidation, hydrogen formation and either of two types of energy conservation systems (Rnf and Ech). Including genomes of another eleven experimentally validated chain-elongating strains, we found that the chain elongation-specific core-genome encodes the pathways for reverse ?-oxidation, hydrogen formation and energy conservation, while displaying substantial genome heterogeneity. Metabolic features of these isolates are important for biotechnological applications in n-caproate and iso-butyrate production.
