Bacterial acetylation and the role of different sugar supplements - carbon overflow

ABSTRACT: Lysine acetylation is thought to provide a mechanism for regulating metabolism in diverse bacteria. Indeed, many studies have shown that the majority of enzymes involved in central metabolism are acetylated and that acetylation can alter enzyme activity. However, the details regarding this regulatory mechanism are still unclear, specifically with regards to the signals inducing lysine acetylation. To better understand this global regulatory mechanism, we profiled changes in lysine acetylation during growth of Escherichia coli on glucose or xylose at both high and low sugar concentrations using label-free mass spectrometry. The goal was to see whether lysine acetylation differed during growth on these two sugars. No significant differences, however, were observed. Rather, the initial sugar concentration was the principal factor governing changes in lysine acetylation, with higher sugar concentrations causing more acetylation. These results suggest that acetylation does not target specific metabolic pathways but rather simply targets with accessible lysines, which may or may not alter enzyme activity. They further suggest that lysine acetylation principally results from conditions that favor accumulation of acetyl phosphate, the principal acetate donor in E. coli.

Project description:Water soluble carbohydrates (WSC, composed of mainly fructans, sucrose, glucose and fructose) deposited in wheat stems are important carbon sources for grain filling. Variation in stem WSC concentrations among wheat genotypes is one of the genetic factors influencing grain weight and yield under water-limited environments. Here, we describe the molecular dissection of carbohydrate metabolism in stems, at the WSC accumulation phase, of recombinant inbred SB (Seri/Babax) lines of Triticum aestivum differing in stem WSC concentrations. Affymetrix GeneChip analysis of carbohydrate metabolic enzymes revealed that the mRNA levels of two fructan synthetic enzyme families (sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferase and sucrose:fructan 6-fructosyltransferase) in the stem were positively correlated with stem WSC and fructan concentrations, while the mRNA levels of enzyme families involved in sucrose hydrolysis (sucrose synthase and soluble acid invertase) were inversely correlated with WSC concentrations. Differential regulation of the mRNA levels of these sucrose hydrolytic enzymes in SB lines resulted in genotypic differences in these enzyme activities. Down-regulation of sucrose synthase and soluble acid invertase in high WSC lines was accompanied by significant decreases in the mRNA levels of enzyme families related to sugar catabolic pathways (fructokinase and mitochondrion pyruvate dehydrogenase complex) and enzyme families involved in diverting UDP-glucose to cell wall synthesis (UDP-glucose 6-dehydrogenase, UDP-glucuronate decarboxylase and cellulose synthase), resulting in a reduction in cell wall polysaccharide contents (mainly hemicellulose) in the stem of high WSC lines. These data suggest that differential carbon partitioning in the wheat stem is one mechanism that contributes to genotypic variation in WSC accumulation. We used Affymetrix GeneChip to dissect genotypic variation in carbohydrate metabolism related to water soluble carbohydrate accumulation in stems of wheat. Experiment Overall Design: 8 genotypes of recombinant inbred lines Seri M82 x Babax with 2 biological replicates per genotype. Grown in the field under rain-fed conditions
