Project description:Lysinibacillus varians GY32 is a filamentous bacteria that can generate electricity in microbial fuel cells. To find potential genes participating in the electron transfer to electrode of Lysinibacillus varians GY32, we compared the gene expression profiles of this bacteria with acetate as electron donor and two electron acceptors, i.e. oxygen and electrode in microbial fuel cells. The results showed that several cytochrome c genes might play specific roles in the extracellular electron transfer to electrode in this strain.

Project description:Bioelectrochemical systems employing mixed microbial communities as biocatalysts are gaining importance as potential renewable energy, bioremediation, or biosensing devices. While we are beginning to understand how individual microorganism species interact with an electrode as electron donor, not much is known about the interactions between different microbial species in a community. Here, we compare the bioelectrochemical performance of Shewanella oneidensis in a pure-culture and in a co-culture with the homolactic acid fermenter Lactococcus lactis. While S. oneidensis alone can only use lactate as electron donor for current production, the co-culture is able to convert glucose into current with a similar coulombic efficiency of approximately 17%, respectively. With (electro)-chemical analysis and transcription profiling, we found that the BES performance and S. oneidensis physiology were not significantly different whether grown as a pure- or co-culture. These co-culture experiments represent a first step in understanding microbial interactions in BES communities with the goal to design complex microbial communities, which specifically convert target substrates into electricity. Further, for the first time, we elucidated S. oneidensis gene expression with an electrode as the only electron acceptor. The expression pattern confirms many previous studies regarding the enzymatic requirements for electrode respiration, and it generates new hypotheses on the functions of proteins, which are so far not known to be involved in electrode respiration.

The BES was either operated with S. oneidensis alone, fed with lactate, or it was operated with S. oneidensis and L. lactis with glucose as primary substrate. The basic medium was a modified M4 medium containing 0.5 g/L yeast extract, 0.5 g/L trypton and 5 g/L glycerol phosphate, besides the commen M4 incredients. S. oneidensis oxidizes lactate to acetate and electrons in a BES - the latter generate a current at a graphite anode. The anode biofilm was harvested after about 4 weeks of continuous BES operation and subjected to total RNA extraction.

Project description:G. sulfurreducens can generate electricity from the oxidation of organic compounds. This is because it can take electrons from organic compounds and ship them out to the outer surface of the cell where they can then be deposited on various insoluble electron acceptors including electrodes. Cells attatched to the surface of an electrode oxidize acetate and and deposit the electrons derived from acetate onto the surface of the electrode after which they can travel through an electrical circuit, producing a current. Microbial fuel cells powered by acetate oxidation by Geobacter species are called Geobatteries. In this experiment we compared gene expression in a biofilm of the wild type strain growing on the surface of an electrode within a current-producing Geobattery to gene expression in a wild type biofilm that is not producing current, but is growing on the surface of an electrode. In both cases, the cells were growing in a flow-through two chambered H-cell Geobattery setup. This consists of two glass chambers, an anoxic anode chamber containing G. sulfurreducens, a graphite electrode, a reference electrode and growth medium and an oxic chamber containing the counter electrode. The two chambers are connected by a cation selective membrane and a wire connected to a potentionstat. A potentiostat is an instrument which maintains the redox potential of the anode at a fixed value relative to a reference electrode. Media continuously flowed through the anoxic anode chamber at a dilution rate of 0.15. In the experimental condition, the Geobattery was operational. The circuit was closed and G. sulfurreducens attached to the electrode generated current as it oxidized acetate. The redox potential at the anode was poised at 300 mV by the potentiostat. In the control condition, everything was the same, except that the medium in the anode chamber contained fumarate as electron acceptor, and the anode was not hooked up to the potentiostat i.e. the circuit was open. This prevented the anode from serving as an electron acceptor. Nevertheless a thick G. sulfurreducens biofilm grew on the surface of the electrode. The control and experimental geobatteries were harvested when current in the operational/experimental Geobatteries reached 10 mA. Keywords: two condition comparison

Project description:Electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) receive considerable attention for their utility in bioelectrochemical processes. Although electrode potentials are known to affect the metabolic activity of EAB, it is unclear whether EAB are able to sense and respond to electrode potentials. Here, we show that, in the presence of a high-potential electrode, a model EAB Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 can utilize NADH-dependent catabolic pathways and a background formate-dependent pathway to achieve high growth yield. We also show that an Arc regulatory system is involved in sensing electrode potentials and regulating the expression of catabolic genes, including those for NADH dehydrogenase. We suggest that these findings may facilitate the use of EAB in biotechnological processes and offer the molecular bases for their ecological strategies in natural habitats.

Project description:S. oneidensis MR-1 was grown with different electron acceptors: an electrode at 0.4 V vs. SHE, 50 mM Fe(III)citrate, and oxygen. The gene expression pattern for each experiment was analyzed and the differences in gene expression for the different experimental conditions were compared. For two samples S. oneidensis was grown with a graphite anode electrode (at 0.4 V. vs. SHE) as the only electron acceptor - one sample was directly fed with 20 mM lactate, one sample was fed with lactate produced during fermentation of glucose by Lactococcus lactis. Four samples were grown anaerobically with 50 mM Fe(III)citrate as the only electron acceptor, and 20 mM lactate for 20 h. Three samples were grown aerobically with 20 mM lactate for 20 h. The same modified M4 medium was used for all samples. For RNA extraction, the biofilm was scraped off the frozen (-80M-BM-0C) carbon electrode with a sterile razor blade. Biofilm-carbon sludge was combined with 7 mL ice-cold phosphate buffer saline (PBS), vortexed, sonicated at 7 W for 30 s on ice (3 repetitions), and centrifuged. For the liquid cultures, 2 mL of each culture were combined with 2 mL RNA protect, vortexed, and centrifuged at 5,500g for 10 min. The pellets were resuspended in NAES buffer (50 mM sodium acetate buffer, 10 mM EDTA and 1 % SDS at pH 5). RNA was isolated with a phenol:chloroform extraction protocol.
