Project description:Different genetic engineering strategies have been proposed to obtain E. coli strains that selectively consume xylose. In this study, a previously reported strategy for obtaining a xylose-selective strain in E. coli K12 was applied to E. coli BL21 (DE3). While this approach resulted in the expected xylose-selective phenotype, a low xylose consumption rate was recorded when the strain was grown on a mixture of xylose and glucose. To enhance xylose consumption, a variant of the transcriptional activator XylR was expressed. The resulting strain not only exhibited an improved capacity to consume xylose but also slightly recovered the ability to consume glucose. The aim of the microarray analysis was to identify the transcriptional changes associated with glucose assimilation in the BL21(DE3) derived xylose-selective strain.

Project description:The thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum has been successfully used in the past for biochemical and high resolution structural studies of protein complexes, but subsequent functional analysis of these assemblies were hindered due to the lack of genetic tools in this thermophile, which are typically amenable in several other mesophilic eukaryotic model organisms, in particular the yeast Saccharomycers cerevisiae. Hence, we aimed to develop a regulatable gene-expression system in C. thermophilum, which might facilitate such in vivo studies, based on what we know about the galactose-inducible GAL promoter in yeast. To identify sugar-regulatable promoters in C. thermophilum, we performed comparative xylose- versus glucose-dependent gene expression studies, which uncovered a number of enzymes induced by xylose but repressed by glucose. Subsequently, we cloned the promoters of the two most stringently regulated genes, the xylosidase-like gene (XYL) and xylitol dehydrogenase (XDH), obtained from this genome-wide analysis in front of the thermostable YFP (yellow fluorescent protein) reporter. In this way, we could demonstrate xylose-dependent YFP expression by either western blotting or life cell imaging fluorescence microscopy. Prompted by these results, we finally expressed a well-characterized dominant-negative ribosome assembly factor mutant, rsa4 E117>D, under the control of the XDH promoter, which allowed us to induce a nuclear export defect of the pre-60S subunit when C. thermophilum cells were grown in xylose but not glucose containing medium. Altogether, our study recognized xylose-regulatable promoters in Chaetomium thermophilum, which may foster functional studies of genes of interest in this thermophilic eukaryotic model organism.

Project description:The transcriptome profiles of a riboflavin-producing recombinant Bacillus subtilis RH33 and wild type Bacillus subtilis 168 were compared using DNA microarrays to identify the target genes for further enhancing riboflavin production. Transcriptome profiles of a riboflavin-producing B. subtilis RH33 were compared with those of the wild-type B. subtilis 168 as a control strain during exponentially growing period on LBG medium. These conditions corresponded to the state of high riboflavin production, which was growth related. For each comparison, two independent cultivations on LB medium with 1% glucose were performed, and exponentially growing cells (OD600 3â6) were harvested. The synthesis of cDNA and biotin-labeled cRNA were carried out exactly as described in the Affymetrix GeneChip Expression Analysis Technical Manual (2000).

Project description:Sulfolobus acidocaldarius has been previously reported to grow on a broad range of sugars, but there is limited information on the ability of the organism to metabolize multiple sugars simultaneously. We report here the ability of S. acidocaldarius to utilize glucose and xylose simultaneously without di-auxie effect. The organism utilized a mixture of 1 g/L glucose and 1 g/L xylose with a growth rate of 0.079 h-1 compared to 0.074 h-1 and 0.22 h-1 when the organism was grown on xylose 2 g/L and 2 g/L glucose respectively as sole carbon sources. An increase in xylose concentration to 2 and 4 g/L in a medium containing 1 g/L glucose resulted in a growth rate of 0.082 and 0.085 h-1. However, increasing glucose concentration by 2 and 4 g/L when xylose concentration was maintained at 1 g/L decreased the growth rate to 0.062 and 0.052 h-1 respectively. S. acidocaldarius appeared to be utilizing the sugars at a rate roughly proportional to their concentration in the medium, resulting in complete utilization of these sugars at same time. The organism did not show preference for either glucose or xylose when it was grown on both sugars. Similar results were obtained with a combination of glucose, arabinose and galactose. These observations strongly suggest that S. acidocaldarius does not regulate utilization of the sugars tested herein using carbon catabolite repression (CCR) commonly found in most bacteria. The mechanism by which the organism utilized a mixture of sugar is yet to be elucidated. However, we were able to identify genes encoding for the putative glucose ABC transporters; but the putative xylose transporter was not identified.

Project description:Bacteria are known to cope with environmental changes by using alternative sigma factors binding to RNA polymerase core enzyme. Sigma factor is one of the targets to modify transcription regulation in bacteria and to influence production capacities. In this study, the effect of overexpressing all annotated sigma factor genes on C. glutamicum WT was assayed using an IPTG inducible plasmid system and different IPTG concentrations. It was revealed that growth was severely decreased when sigD or sigH were overexpressed with IPTG concentrations higher than 50 μM. Overexpression of sigH led to an obvious phenotypic change, a yellow-colored supernatant. HPLC analysis revealed that riboflavin was excreted to the medium when sigH was overexpressed and DNA Microarray analysis confirmed increased expression of riboflavin biosynthesis genes. In addition, genes for enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway and for enzymes dependent on FMN, FAD or NADPH as cofactor were upregulated when sigH was overexpressed. To test if sigH overexpression can be exploited for production of riboflavin-derived FMN or FAD, the endogenous gene for bifunctional riboflavin kinase/FMN adenyltransferase was co-expressed with sigH from a plasmid. Balanced expression of sigH and ribF improved accumulation of riboflavin (19.8 ± 0.3 μM) and allowed for its conversion to FMN (33.1 ± 1.8 μM) in the supernatant. While a proof-of-concept was reached, conversion was not complete and titers were not high. This study revealed that inducible and gradable overexpression of sigma factor genes is an interesting approach to switch gene expression profiles and to discover untapped potential of bacteria for chemical production. Endogenous sigma factor gene, sigH, was overexpressed in C. glutamicum ATCC13032 from IPTG inducible vector, pEKEx3. Two different concentration of IPTG (10 μM and 15 μM) was used for induction of SigH expression.

Project description:Background Lignocellulosic biomass is a promising renewable feedstock for biofuel production. Acetate is one of the major inhibitors liberated from hemicelluloses during hydrolysis. An understanding of the toxic effects of acetate on the fermentation microorganism and the efficient utilization of mixed sugars of glucose and xylose in the presence of hydrolysate inhibitors is crucial for economic biofuel production. Results A new microarray was designed including both coding sequences and intergenic regions to investigate the acetate stress responses of Zymomonas mobilis 8b when using single carbon sources of glucose or xylose, or mixed sugars of both glucose and xylose. With the supplementation of exogenous acetate, 8b can utilize all the glucose with a similar ethanol yield, although the growth, final biomass, and ethanol production rate were reduced. However, xylose utilization was inhibited in both media containing xylose or a mixed sugar of glucose and xylose, although the performance of 8b was better in mixed sugar than xylose-only media. The presence of acetate caused genes related to biosynthesis, the flagellar system, and glycolysis to be downregulated, and genes related to stress responses and energy metabolism to be upregulated. Unexpectedly, xylose seems to pose more stress on 8b, recruiting more genes for xylose utilization, than does acetate. Several gene candidates based on transcriptome results were selected for genetic manipulation, and a TonB-dependent receptor knockout mutant was confirmed to have a slight advantage regarding acetate tolerance. Conclusions Our results indicate Z. mobilis utilized a different mechanism for xylose utilization, with an even more severe impact on Z. mobilis than that caused by acetate treatment. Our study also suggests redox imbalance caused by stressful conditions may trigger a metabolic reaction leading to the accumulation of toxic intermediates such as xylitol, but Z. mobilis manages its carbon and energy metabolism through the control of individual reactions to mitigate the stressful conditions. We have thus provided extensive transcriptomic datasets and gained insights into the molecular responses of Z. mobilis to the inhibitor acetate when grown in different sugar sources, which will facilitate future metabolic modeling studies and strain improvement efforts for better xylose utilization and acetate tolerance.

Project description:Background: Lignocellulosic biomass is a promising renewable feedstock for the microbial production of fuels. To release the major fermentable sugars such as glucose and xylose, pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of biomass feedstock are needed. During this process, many toxic compounds are produced or introduced which subsequently inhibit microbial growth and eventually the production rate and yield. Acetate is one of the major inhibitors liberated from hemicelluloses during dilute acid pretreatment. An understanding of the toxic effects of acetate on the fermentation microorganism is critical to improving biofuel yields in the process. In addition, the efficient utilization of mixed sugars of glucose and xylose in the presence of hydrolysate inhibitors is crucial for economic biofuel production. Results: We have observed previously that some pretreatment inhibitors affect growth and performance in Zymomonas mobilis 8b differently when different sugars (e.g. glucose or xylose) are used as substrate. To investigate this phenomenon at the cellular level, microarray technology was used to investigate the acetate stress responses of Z. mobilis 8b when using single carbon sources of glucose or xylose, and mixed sugars of glucose and xylose. We designed a microarray based on the most up-to-date genome annotation for both coding sequences and intergenic regions. In the presence of acetate, 8b still can utilize all the glucose (though xylose utilization was inhibited) with similar ethanol yield although the growth, final biomass, and ethanol production rate were reduced. The presence of acetate caused genes related to biosynthesis, flagellar system, and glycolysis to be downregulated, and genes related to stress responses and energy metabolism to be upregulated. Our result indicates that Z. mobilis utilized different mechanism for xylose utilization compared to that of glucose, with even more dramatic results than those caused by treatment of the culture with the inhibitor acetate. Our study also suggests that redox imbalance caused by stressful conditions may trigger a metabolic reaction that leads to the accumulation of toxic intermediates such as xylitol, but Z. mobilis appears to be capable of managing its carbon and energy metabolism through the control of individual reactions to overcome the inhibition caused by stressful conditions. Several target gene candidates based on transcriptomic result have been selected for genetic manipulation and a TonB-dependent receptor knockout mutant was confirmed to have advantage on acetate tolerance. Conclusions: We have gained insights into the molecular responses of the model ethanologenic bacterium Z. mobilis to the inhibitor acetate when grown in different sugar sources. These insights will facilitate future metabolic modeling studies and help further strain metabolic engineering efforts for better xylose utilization and acetate tolerance. Two series of microarray studies using total RNA extracted from Zymomonas mobilis subsp mobilis 8b (an xylose-utilizing recombinant) were carried out to investigate the effect of carbon source and acetate on Z. mobilis. One study compared the acetate effect in either glucose or xylose at exponential phase and another study investigated the acetate effect in mixed sugar of glucose and xylose at three growth phases of exponential, transition, and stationary. Tthree biological replicates were used for each condition.
