Molecular and cellular mechanisms of neutral lipid accumulation in diatom following nitrogen deprivation.

Project description:BackgroundNitrogen limitation can induce neutral lipid accumulation in microalgae, as well as inhibiting their growth. Therefore, to obtain cultures with both high biomass and high lipid contents, and explore the lipid accumulation mechanisms, we implemented nitrogen deprivation in a model diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum at late exponential phase.ResultsNeutral lipid contents per cell subsequently increased 2.4-fold, both the number and total volume of oil bodies increased markedly, and cell density rose slightly. Transcriptional profile analyzed by RNA-Seq showed that expression levels of 1213 genes (including key carbon fixation, TCA cycle, glycerolipid metabolism and nitrogen assimilation genes) increased, with a false discovery rate cut-off of 0.001, under N deprivation. However, most light harvesting complex genes were down-regulated, extensive degradation of chloroplast membranes was observed under an electron microscope, and photosynthetic efficiency declined. Further identification of lipid classes showed that levels of MGDG and DGDG, the main lipid components of chloroplast membranes, dramatically decreased and triacylglycerol (TAG) levels significantly rose, indicating that intracellular membrane remodeling substantially contributed to the neutral lipid accumulation.ConclusionsOur findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms of neutral lipid accumulation and the key genes involved in lipid metabolism in diatoms. They also provide indications of possible strategies for improving microalgal biodiesel production.

MicroRNA Expression Profile Analysis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii during Lipid Accumulation Process under Nitrogen Deprivation Stresses.

Project description:Lipid accumulation in various microalgae has been found induced by nitrogen deprivation, and it controls many different genes expression. Yet, the underlying molecular mechanisms still remain largely unknown. MicroRNA (miRNAs) play a critical role in post-transcriptional gene regulation. In this study, miRNAs were hypothesized involved in lipid accumulation by nitrogen deprivation. A deep-sequencing platform was used to explore miRNAs-mediated responses induced by nitrogen deprivation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. The eukaryotic orthologous groups of proteins (KOG) function in the predicted target genes of miRNA with response to nitrogen deprivation were mainly involved in signal transduction mechanisms, including transcription, lipid transport, and metabolism. A total of 109 miRNA were predicted, including 79 known miRNA and 30 novel miRNA. A total of 29 miRNAs showed significantly differential expressions after nitrogen deprivation, and most of them were upregulated. A total of 10 miRNAs and their targeting genes might involve in lipid transport and metabolism biological process. This study first investigates nitrogen deprivation-regulated miRNAs in microalgae and broadens perspectives on miRNAs importance in microalgae lipid accumulation via nitrogen deprivation. This study provides theoretical guidance for the application of microalgae in bio-oil engineering production.

Enhanced nitrogen removal via Yarrowia lipolytica-mediated nitrogen and related metabolism of Chlorella pyrenoidosa from wastewater

Project description:To investigate the mechanism by which the microalgae-yeast co-culture system promotes wastewater denitrification. We concluded that microalgae and yeast exhibit a mutually beneficial relationship in the co-culture system. Microalgae nitrogen metabolism can be influenced by both miRNA and mRNA, and the presence of yeast stimulates gene expression in microalgae.

Nitrogen deprivation induces lipid droplet accumulation and alters fatty acid metabolism in symbiotic dinoflagellates isolated from Aiptasia pulchella.

Project description:The stability of cnidarian-dinoflagellate (genus Symbiodinium spp.) endosymbioses depends on the regulation of nutrient transport between Symbiodinium populations and their hosts. Previously, we successfully induced the production of lipid droplets in the free-living cultured Symbiodinium (clade B) under the nitrogen-deprivation condition for 5 days. Therefore, the present study aimed at understanding the disruption of the endosymbiotic relationship between the cnidarians and dinoflagellates by nitrogen deprivation using Aiptasia pulchella as an example. Transmission electron micrographs revealed the formation of lipid droplets induced by nitrogen deprivation, and the lipid analyses further showed that polyunsaturated fatty acids were drastically enriched in Symbiodinium after 30 days of nitrogen deprivation, although these were unaffected after 5 days of nitrogen starvation. The present study also suggested that the host provided nitrogen to the symbiotic cells during short-term environmental stress. However, the relationship started to deteriorate after 30 days. These findings provide a more detailed understanding of the mechanisms of the symbiotic relationship between the symbiotic dinoflagellates in terms of the nitrogen source, which might provide more information for the explanation of the regulatory mechanism underlying endosymbiotic associations.

Lipid accumulation mechanism of Amphora coffeaeformis under nitrogen deprivation and its application as a feed additive in Carassius auratus aquaculture.

Project description:BackgroundAmphora coffeaeformis, a unicellular diatom, can significantly accumulate lipids under nitrogen (N) limitation. However, the molecular mechanism underlying lipid accumulation in A. coffeaeformis remains unknown and its application development is lagging.ResultsThis work analyzed the lipid composition of A. coffeaeformis under N deprivation and investigated its mechanism underlying lipid accumulation using RNA-seq. The results showed that the total lipid content of A. coffeaeformis increased from 28.22 to 44.05% after 5 days of N deprivation, while the neutral lipid triacylglycerol (TAG) content increased from 10.41 to 25.21%. The transcriptional profile showed that N deprivation induced wide-ranging reprogramming of regulation and that most physiological activities were repressed, while the upregulation of glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase directly determined TAG accumulation. Moreover, we explored the effect of A. coffeaeformis as a food additive on the lipid composition of crucian carp. The results showed that the contents of unsaturated fatty acids in the meat of fish supplemented with A. coffeaeformis were significantly increased, indicating its potential application in animal nutrition for improving meat quality indicators.ConclusionThe findings shed light on the molecular mechanisms of neutral lipid accumulation and revealed the key genes involved in lipid metabolism in A. coffeaeformis. Moreover, we also confirmed that A. coffeaeformis can be used as feed additive for improving the lipid composition of crucian carp meat, which provided evidence for the biotechnology application of this high-oil microalgae.

Nitrogen deprivation induces triacylglycerol accumulation, drug tolerance and hypervirulence in mycobacteria.

Project description:Mycobacteria share with other actinomycetes the ability to produce large quantities of triacylglycerol (TAG), which accumulate as intracytoplasmic lipid inclusions (ILI) also known as lipid droplets (LD). Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), the etiologic agent of tuberculosis, acquires fatty acids from the human host which are utilized to synthesize TAG, subsequently stored in the form of ILI to meet the carbon and nutrient requirements of the bacterium during long periods of persistence. However, environmental factors governing mycobacterial ILI formation and degradation remain poorly understood. Herein, we demonstrated that in the absence of host cells, carbon excess and nitrogen starvation promote TAG accumulation in the form of ILI in M. smegmatis and M. abscessus, used as surrogate species of M. tb. Based on these findings, we developed a simple and reversible in vitro model to regulate ILI biosynthesis and hydrolysis in mycobacteria. We also showed that TAG formation is tgs1 dependent and that lipolytic enzymes mediate TAG breakdown. Moreover, we confirmed that the nitrogen-deprived and ILI-rich phenotype was associated with an increased tolerance towards several drugs used for treating mycobacterial infections. Importantly, we showed that the presence of ILI substantially enhanced the bacterial burden and granuloma abundance in zebrafish embryos infected with lipid-rich M. abscessus as compared to embryos infected with lipid-poor M. abscessus, suggesting that ILI are actively contributing to mycobacterial virulence and pathogenesis.

De novo transcriptome analysis and gene expression profiling of an oleaginous microalga Scenedesmus acutus TISTR8540 during nitrogen deprivation-induced lipid accumulation.

Project description:Nitrogen deprivation (-N) has been used as a technique to promote lipid accumulation in various microalgae. Scenedesmus acutus is a promising oleaginous green microalga that can be cultivated in organic wastewater for biodiesel production. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms controlling S. acutus lipid accumulation in response to -N remain unidentified. Physiological study determined that -N reduced cell growth and photosynthetic pigments. On the other hand, it promoted carbohydrate and neutral lipid accumulation. To find the mechanisms underlying lipid accumulation, we performed de novo transcriptome profiling of the non-model S. acutus in response to -N. The transcriptome analysis revealed that glycolysis and starch degradation were up-regulated; on the contrary, gluconeogenesis, photosynthesis, triacylglycerol (TAG) degradation and starch synthesis were down-regulated by -N. Under -N, the carbon flux was shifted toward fatty acid and TAG synthesis, and the down regulation of TAG lipase genes may contribute to TAG accumulation. A comparative analysis of the -N transcriptomes of oleaginous microalgae identified that the down-regulation of multiple lipase genes was a specific mechanism found only in the -N transcriptome of S. acutus. Our study unraveled the mechanisms controlling -N-induced lipid accumulation in S. acutus, and provided new perspectives for the genetic manipulation of biodiesel-producing microalgae.
