Global gene expression of Ruegeria pomeroyi strain DSS3 in response to glucose, ammonium, phosphate, or sulfate limitation

ABSTRACT: We used the previously designed oligonucleotide-based microarray (Burgmann et al. Environmental Microbiology 2007, 9: 2742-2755) to detect the transcripts of R. pomeroyi DSS-3 genes when the cells were cultured under steady-state carbon (glucose), nitrogen (ammonium), phosphorus (phosphate), or sulfur (sulfate) limitation.

Project description:Ammonium is a waste product that inhibits cell growth, recombinant protein production, and protein glycosylation in mammalian cell culture. Recent studies have demonstrated that ammonium adversely affects glycosylation-related gene expression in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. However, since the CHO cell line species has not been fully sequenced, a glycosylation transcriptome analysis is not possible in this cell line. Therefore, to further understand the effects of ammonium on glycosylation-related gene expression, NS0 cells, a mouse myeloma cell line, were cultured under elevated ammonium. NS0 cells are similar to CHO cells, in that the NS0 cells are anchorage-independent and commonly used to commercially produce recombinant proteins. Additionally, DNA microarrays containing all known mouse glycosylation-related genes were available to be used to examine gene expression. NS0 cells were cultured under normal (control), elevated ammonium, elevated salt, and elevated ammonium with proline. It was observed that the control and treatments culture growth rates were not significantly different; however, the final cell densities were significantly different. The DNA microarray data was analyzed using a Welch ANOVA test with a Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery rate correction for the multiple comparisons of the glycosylation-genes. No significant difference in gene expression levels between the four conditions examined were observed. The results of this study demonstrated that NS0 cells, at the gene expression level, are insensitive to ammonium. Thus, the decreased glycosylation observed in NS0 cell cultures at elevated ammonium is likely due to changes in synthesis and degradation enzyme activity. In contrast, CHO cells have decreased glycosylation levels due to decreased sialytransferase gene expression and not increased degradation enzyme activity. Therefore, even though NS0 and CHO cells are both commonly used recombinant hosts for glycoprotein synthesis, it appears that NS0 and CHO cells had different control mechanisms respect to glycosylation-related gene expression under elevated ammonium.
