Project description:The obligatory aerobic acetic acid bacterium Gluconobacter oxydans oxidizes a variety of substrates in the periplasm by membrane-bound dehydrogenases, which transfer the reducing equivalents to ubiquinone. Two quinol oxidases, cytochrome bo3 and cytochrome bd, then catalyze transfer of the electrons from ubiquinol to molecular oxygen. In this study, mutants lacking either of these terminal oxidases were characterized. Deletion of the cydAB genes for cytochrome bd had no obvious influence on growth, whereas the lack of the cyoBACD genes for cytochrome bo3 severely reduced the growth rate and the cell yield. Using a respiration activity monitoring system and adjusting different levels of oxygen availability, hints for a low oxygen affinity of cytochrome bd oxidase were obtained, which were supported by measurements of oxygen consumption in a respirometer. The H+/O ratio of the ΔcyoBACD mutant with mannitol as substrate was 0.56 ± 0.11 and more than 50% lower than that of the reference strain (1.26 ± 0.06) and the delta-cydAB mutant (1.31 ± 0.16), indicating that cytochrome bo3 oxidase is the main component for proton extrusion via the respiratory chain. Plasmid-based overexpression of cyoBACD led to increased growth rates and growth yields, both in the wild type and the delta-cyoBACD mutant, suggesting that cytochrome bo3 might be the rate-limiting factor of the respiratory chain.

The H+/O ratio of the M-NM-^TcyoBACD mutant with mannitol as substrate was 0.56 M-BM-1 0.11 and more than 50% lower than that of the reference strain (1.26 M-BM-1 0.06) and the delta-cydAB mutant (1.31 M-BM-1 0.16), indicating that cytochrome bo3 oxidase is the main component for proton extrusion via the respiratory chain. Plasmid-based overexpression of cyoBACD led to increased growth rates and growth yields, both in the wild type and the delta-cyoBACD mutant, suggesting that cytochrome bo3 might be the rate-limiting factor of the respiratory chain. The three transcriptome comparisons of G. oxydans M-NM-^TuppM-NM-^TcyoBACD vs. G.oxydans M-NM-^Tupp were repeated independently three times in biological replicates resulting in 3 hybridizations as termed by sample 1 to 3.

Project description:Bacteria modify expression of different types of terminal oxidase in response to oxygen availability. Corynebacterium glutamicum, a facultative anaerobic bacterium in Actinobacteria, possesses aa3-type cytochrome c oxidase and cytochrome bd-type quinol oxidase, the latter of which is induced upon oxygen limitation. We report here that an extracytoplasmic function sigma factor, SigC, is unprecedentedly responsible for the regulation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation in conjunction with microarray (ChIP-chip) analysis detected eight SigC-binding regions in the genome, leading to identification of a consensus promoter sequence for SigC recognition. The promoter sequences were found upstream of genes for cytochrome bd, heme a synthesis enzymes, and uncharacterized membrane proteins, all of which were upregulated by sigC overexpression. In contrast, that found on the antisense strand upstream of an operon encoding the cytochrome bc1 complex conferred a SigC-dependent negative effect on the operon expression. The SigC regulon was induced by cytochrome aa3 deficiency without modification of expression of sigC itself, but not by deficiency of the bc1 complex. These findings suggest that SigC is activated in response to impairment of electron transfer via cytochrome aa3, not directly to shift in oxygen levels. Our results provide a novel paradigm for transcriptional regulation of the aerobic respiratory system in bacteria. Comparison of gene expression profiles of the wild type before and after sigC overexpression at the exponential phase. Three independent experiments were performed.

Project description:We previously determined that loss of respiratory quinol oxidase cytochrome bd disrupts biofilm formation in uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). In this study, we extracted and interrogated the outer membrane and extracellular matrix of colony biofilms formed by UPEC isolate UTI89 and an isogenic mutant lacking cytochrome bd (∆cydAB).

Project description:The generation of an electrical membrane potential (Δψ), the major constituent of the proton motive force (pmf) is crucial for the ATP synthesis, bacterial growth and motility. The pmf drives the rotation of flagella and is vital for the microaerophilic human pathogen Campylobacter jejuni to colonize the mucus layer of the gut of warm-blooded animals. C. jejuni harbors a branched electron transport chain, enabling respiration with different electron donors and acceptors to generate a Δψ. Here, we demonstrate which electron donor/acceptor couples generate a Δψ and show the impact of the Δψ on the growth performance and motility of this bacterium. In the absence of both oxygen and formate or hydrogen, no Δψ is generated, which strongly reduced the growth rate and the number of motile bacteria. ATP generation is driven either by the pmf, or by substrate level phosphorylation if pyruvate is present. In response to low oxygen tension, C. jejuni upregulates the transcription of the alternative respiratory acceptor complexes and increases the transcription and activity of the donor complexes formate dehydrogenase (FdhABC) and hydrogenase (HydABCD). In conclusion, C. jejuni is dependent on oxygen as electron acceptor or formate/hydrogen as electron donor to generate a pmf that sustains efficient growth and motility performance.
