Project description:Various saprotrophic microorganisms, especially filamentous fungi, can efficiently degrade lignocellulose that is one of the most abundant natural material on earth. It consists of complex carbohydrates and aromatic polymers found in plant cell wall and thus in plant debris. Aspergillus fumigatus Z5 was isolated from compost heaps and showed highly efficient plant biomass-degradation capability.Genome analysis revealed an impressive array of genes encoding cellulases, hemicellulases, and pectinases involved in lignocellulosic biomass degradation. We sequenced the transcriptomes of Aspergillus fumigatus Z5 induced by sucrose, xylan, cellulose and rice straw, respectively. There were 444, 1711 and 1386 significantly differently (q-value ⤠0.0001 and |log2 of the ratio of the RPM values| ⥠2) expressed genes in xylan, cellulose and rice straw,respectively, relative to sucrose control. After incubation at 45 â, 145rpm for 20 hours with sucrose as the carbon source, mycelia were induced for 16 hours using xylan, cellulose and rice straw, respectively. Transcriptome induced by sucrose was used as the control when comparing the differences between other three transcriptomes (induced by xylan, cellulose and rice straw, respectively).

Project description:Filamentous fungi are powerful producers of hydrolytic enzymes for the deconstruction of plant cell wall polysaccharides. However, the central question of how these sugars are perceived in the context of the complex cell wall matrix remains largely elusive. To address this question in a systematic fashion we performed an extensive comparative systems analysis of how the model filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa responds to the three main cell wall polysaccharides: pectin, hemicellulose and cellulose. We found the pectic response to be largely independent of the cellulolytic one with some overlap to hemicellulose, and in its extent surprisingly high, suggesting advantages for the fungus beyond being a mere carbon source. Our approach furthermore allowed us to identify carbon source-specific adaptations, such as the induction of the unfolded protein response on cellulose, and a commonly induced set of 29 genes likely involved in carbon scouting. Moreover, by hierarchical clustering we generated a co-expression matrix useful for the discovery of new components involved in polysaccharide utilization. This is exemplified by the identification of lat-1, which we demonstrate to encode for the physiologically relevant arabinose transporter in Neurospora. The analyses presented here are an important step towards understanding fungal degradation processes of complex biomass. Our data are based on carbon source transfer experiments. For this, N. crassa pregrown in sucrose for 16 hrs was washed in media without carbon and then transferred to either pectin, orange peel powder (OPP), xylan, Avicel (cellulose), sucrose, or media without carbon (NoC) for another 4 hrs. Biological triplicates (pectin, Avicel, sucrose, NoC) or duplicates (OPP) were used to identify differentially expressed genes in WT. For xylan only a single library was prepared, which was found to correlate well with previously published microarray data (Sun et al. 2012; doi: 10.1128/EC.05327-11)

Project description:Sugarcane is an important crop in tropical regions of the world, producing a very large biomass and accumulating large amounts of sucrose in the stem. In this study, we present the first report of transcript profiling using the GeneChip Sugarcane Genome Array. We have identified transcripts that are differentially expressed in the sugarcane stem during development by expression profiling using the array and total RNA derived from three disparate stem tissues (meristem, internodes 1-3; internode 8; internode 20) from four replicates of the sugarcane variety Q117 grown in the field. We have identified 119 transcripts that were highly differentially expressed with stem development and have characterised members of the cellulose synthase (CesA) and cellulose synthase-like (Csl) gene families which displayed coordinated expression during stem development. In addition, we determined that many other transcripts involved in cell wall metabolism and lignification were also co-expressed with members of the CesA and Csl gene families, offering additional insights into the dynamics of primary and secondary cell wall synthesis in the developing sugarcane stem.

Project description:This study compares growth of Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD-1 with cellulose or cellobiose as the carbohydrate substrate. Ruminococcus flavefaciens is a predominant cellulolytic rumen bacterium, which forms a multi-enzyme cellulosome complex that could play an integral role in the ability of this bacterium to degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides. Identifying the major enzyme types involved in plant cell wall degradation is essential for gaining a better understanding of the cellulolytic capabilities of this organism as well as highlighting potential enzymes for application to improvement of livestock nutrition and for conversion of cellulosic biomass to liquid fuels. These results show that the growth substrate drives expression of enzymes predicted to be involved in carbohydrate metabolism as well as expression and assembly of key cellulosomal enzyme components. 1 species (Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD_1), 2 conditions (cellulose, cellobiose), 4 biological replicates. Direct design with biological dye swap.

Project description:The genome of the lignocellulose-degrading, extremely thermophilic bacterium Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus encodes genes comprising clusters of glycoside hydrolases, ABC transporters and metabolic enzymes that are transcriptionally responsive to carbohydrates. Transcriptomic and biosolubilization analyses were used to determine if C. saccharolyticus could be deployed as a probe to assess the characteristics of plant biomass feedstocks and efficacy of pre-treatment methods, as these both relate to deconstruction strategies for biofuels production. Based on the response of C. saccharolyticus to plant cell wall polysaccharides, genomic loci were identified that reflected the availability of cellulose, glucomannan, pectin and xylan in biomass to microbial degradation. Furthermore, these loci were useful in assessing how various plant biomass feedstocks (genetically and chemically modified Populus sp., unpretreated Populus sp., and chemically modified switchgrass) were amenable C. saccharolyticus solubilization.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling with next-generation sequencing methods demonstrated that a Neurospora crassa mutant with the three most highly expressed beta-glucosidase genes deleted had a transcriptional response to cellobiose similair to that of wild type N. crassa exposed to cellulose. N. crassa was pregrown in Sucrose and transferred to Avicel (cellulose), Cellobiose, Sucrose or media with no carbon added. Biological triplicates used to identify differentially expressed genes in WT on Avicel. Single libraries for mutant strains identify which genes show similair expression on cellobiose as in the WT on cellulose.
