Expression profiling of Cellvibrio japonicus using either glucose or cellobiose

ABSTRACT: Degradation of polysaccharides forms an essential arc in the carbon cycle, provides a percentage of our daily caloric intake, and is a major driver in the renewable chemical industry. Microorganisms proficient at degrading insoluble polysaccharides possess large numbers of carbohydrate active enzymes, many of which have been categorized as functionally redundant. Here we present data that suggests that carbohydrate active enzymes that have overlapping enzymatic activities can have unique, non-overlapping biological functions in the cell. Our comprehensive study to understand cellodextrin utilization in the soil saprophyte Cellvibrio japonicus found that only one of four predicted b-glucosidases is required in a physiological context. Gene deletion analysis indicated that only the cel3B gene product is essential for efficient cellodextrin utilization in C. japonicus and is constitutively expressed at high levels. Interestingly, expression of individual b-glucosidases in Escherichia coli K-12 enabled this non-cellulolytic bacterium to be fully capable of using cellobiose as a sole carbon source. Furthermore, enzyme kinetic studies indicated that the Cel3A enzyme is significantly more active than the Cel3B enzyme on the oligosaccharides but not disaccharides. Our approach for parsing related carbohydrate active enzymes to determine actual physiological roles in the cell can be applied to other polysaccharide-degradation systems.

Expression profiling of Cellvibrio japonicus using either glucose or xylan

Project description:Lignocellulose degradation by microbes plays a central role in global carbon cycling, human gut metabolism, and renewable energy technologies While considerable effort has been put into understanding the biochemical aspects of lignocellulose degradation, much less work has been done to understand how these enzymes work in an in vivo context Here, we report a systems level study of xylan degradation in the saprophytic bacterium Cellvibrio japonicus Transcriptome analysis indicated seven genes that encode carbohydrate active enzymes were up-regulated during growth with xylan containing media In-frame deletion analysis of these genes found that only gly43F is critical for utilization of xylo-oligosaccharides, xylan, and arabinoxylan Heterologous expression of gly43F was sufficient for the utilization of xylo-oligosaccharides in Escherichia coli Additional analysis found that the xyn11A, xyn11B, abf43L, abf43K, and abf51A gene products were critical for utilization of arabinoxylan Furthermore, a predicted transporter (CJA_1315) was required for effective utilization of xylan substrates, and we propose this unannotated gene be called xntA (xylan transporter A) Our major findings are 1) C japonicus employs both secreted and surface associated enzymes for xylan degradation, which differs from the strategy used for cellulose degradation, and 2) a single cytoplasmic β-xylosidase is essential for the utilization of xylo-oligosaccharides

Expression profiling of Cellvibrio japonicus using either glucose or chitin

Project description:Understanding the strategies used by bacteria to degrade polysaccharides constitutes an invaluable tool for biotechnological applications Bacteria are major mediators of polysaccharide degradation in nature, however the complex mechanisms used to detect, degrade, and consume these substrates are not well understood, especially for recalcitrant polysaccharides such as chitin It has been previously shown that the model bacterial saprophyte Cellvibrio japonicus is able to catabolize chitin, but little is known about the enzymatic machinery underlying this capability Previous analyses of the C japonicus genome and proteome indicated the presence of four family 18 Glycoside Hydrolase (GH18) enzymes, and studies of the proteome indicated that all are involved in chitin utilization Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo approaches, we have studied the roles of these four chitinases in chitin bioconversion Genetic analyses showed that only the chi18D gene product is essential for the degradation of chitin substrates Biochemical characterization of the four enzymes showed functional differences and synergistic effects during chitin degradation, indicating non-redundant roles in the cell Transcriptomic studies revealed complex regulation of the chitin degradation machinery of C japonicus and confirmed the importance of CjChi18D and CjLPMO10A, a previously characterized chitin-active enzyme With this systems biology approach, we deciphered the physiological relevance of the GH18 enzymes for chitin degradation in C japonicus, and the combination of in vitro and in vivo approaches provided a comprehensive understanding of the initial stages of chitin degradation by this bacterium

Transcriptional regulation of plant biomass degradation and carbohydrate utilization genes in Caldicellulosiruptor bescii [RNA-Seq (TSS)]

Project description:Extremely thermophilic bacteria from the genus Caldicellulosiruptor can degrade various polysaccharide components of plant cell walls. Previous experimental studies identified a variety of carbohydrate-active enzymes in model species C. saccharolyticus and C.bescii, while prior transcriptomic experiments identified their putative carbohydrate uptake transporters. We investigated the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation of carbohydrate utilization genes using a comparative genomics approach applied to fourteen Caldicellulosiruptor species. The reconstruction of carbohydrate utilization regulatory network includes the predicted binding sites for 34 mostly local regulators and point to the regulatory mechanisms controlling expression of genes involved in degradation of plant biomass. The Rex and CggR regulons control the central glycolytic and primary redox reactions. The identified transcription factor binding sites and regulons were validated with transcriptomic and transcription start site data for C. bescii grown on cellulose, cellobiose, glucose, xylan, and xylose. The XylR and XynR regulons control xylan-induced transcriptional response of genes involved in degradation of xylan and xylose utilization. The reconstructed regulons informed the carbohydrate utilization reconstruction analysis and improved functional annotations of 51 transporters and 11 catabolic enzymes. Using gene deletion, we confirmed that the shared ATPase component MsmK is essential for growth on oligo- and polysaccharides but not for the utilization of monosaccharides. By elucidating the carbohydrate utilization framework in C. bescii, strategies for metabolic engineering can be pursued to optimize yields of bio-based fuels and chemicals from lignocellulose.

Genome-guided isolation of Fervidibacter sacchari, an aerobic, hyperthermophilic polysaccharide-degrading specialist

Project description:Few aerobic hyperthermophiles degrade polysaccharides. Here, we describe the genome-enabled enrichment and optical tweezer-based isolation of an aerobic hyperthermophile, Fervidibacter sacchari, which was originally ascribed to candidate phylum Fervidibacteria. F. sacchari uses polysaccharides and monosaccharides as sole carbon sources from 65-87.5 Celsius and expresses 190 carbohydrate-active enzymes according to RNA-Seq and proteomics, including 31 with unusual glycoside hydrolase 177 or 179 domains.

Exploring the conversion of different Xylans by the marine Bacteroidetes Flavimarina sp. Hel_I_48

Project description:Bacteroidetes have multiple polysaccharide utilization loci (PUL) which are specific for the decomposition of polysaccharides. The marine Bacteroidetes strain Flavimarina sp. Hel_I_48 encodes two separate PULs which target xylose-containing polysaccharides. We elucidated the specificity of these two PULs by correlating proteome data with biochemical activities of the encoded carbohydrate active enzymes. Proteomics revealed that one PUL targets glucuronoxylans whereas the other PUL targets arabinoxylans.

Functional exploration of novel glycoside hydrolases in Fervidibacter sacchari PD1T

Project description:Few aerobic hyperthermophiles degrade polysaccharides. We describe the genome-enabled enrichment and isolation of an aerobic hyperthermophile, Fervidibacter sacchari, which was originally ascribed to candidate phylum Fervidibacteria. F. sacchari uses polysaccharides and monosaccharides as sole carbon sources from 65-87.5 °C, and its genome encodes 117 glycoside hydrolases (GHs) spanning 49 GH families, including 31 homologs of understudied GH109, GH177, and GH179 domains. Here, we analyzed the transcriptomes of F. sacchari cells grown on eight different sole carbon and energy sources (beta-glucan, chondroitin sulfate, corn stover, gellan gum, locust bean gum, starch, xanthan gum, and xyloglucan) to link glycoside hydrolase substrate to function, as well as identify potential regulatory mechanisms. These data will provide preliminary characterization of novel carbohydrate-active enzymes at high temperatures.

Proteomic and genomic analysis of the marine fungus Paradendryphiella salina

Project description:We set out to investigate the genetic adaptions of the known marine fungus Paradendryphiella salina CBS112865 to the degradation of brown macro-algae, expecting to find a repertoire of carbohydrate active enzymes highly specialized to the degradation of algal polysaccharides. We performed whole genome, transcriptome sequencing and shotgun proteomic analysis of the secretome of P. salina growing on three species of brown algae and under carbon starvation. The genome comparison to close terrestrial fungal relatives, revealed P. salina to have a similar, but reduced carbohydrate active enzyme (CAZyme) profile, except for the presence of three putative alginate lyase 7 genes, most likely acquired via ancient horizontal gene transfer event from a marine bacterium and a polysaccharide lyase 8 gene with similarity to ascomycete chondroitin AC lyases. The proteomic analysis revealed both PL7 and PL8 enzymes to be highly abundant in the algal fermentations together with enzymes necessary for degradation of laminarin, cellulose, lipids and peptides. Our findings indicate that the base CAZyme repertoire of saprobic and plant pathogenic ascomycetes with the necessary addition of alginate lyases provide the fungi with the enzymatic capabilities to thrive on brown algae polysaccharides and even cope with the algal defense mechanisms.

A transcriptomic analysis of Neurospora crassa using five major crop residues and the novel role of the sporulation regulator rca-1 in lignocellulase production

Project description:Comparative transcriptional profiling of N. crassa grown on five major crop straws of China (barley, corn, rice, soybean and wheat straws) revealed a highly overlapping group of 430 genes, the Biomass commonly Induced Core Set (BICS). A large proportion of induced carbohydrate-active-enzyme (CAZy) genes (82 out of 113) were also conserved across the five plant straws. Excluding 178 genes within the BICS that were also up-regulated under no-carbon conditions, the remaining 252 genes were defined as the Biomass Regulon (BR). Interestingly, 88 genes were only induced by plant biomass and not by three individual polysaccharides (Avicel, xylan, and pectin); these were denoted as the Biomass Unique Set (BUS). Deletion of one BUS gene, the transcriptional regulator rca-1, significantly improved lignocellulase production using plant biomass as the sole carbon source, possibly functioning via de-repression of the regulator clr-2. Thus, this result suggests that rca-1 is a potential engineering target for biorefineries, especially for plant biomass direct microbial conversion processes.
