Project description:In the Central Andean region in South America, high-altitude ecosystems (3500-6000 masl) are distributed across Argentina, Chile, Bolivia and Peru, in which poly-extremophilic microbes thrive under extreme environmental conditions. In particular, in the Puna region, total solar irradiation and UV incidence are the highest on Earth, thus, restraining the physiology of individual microorganisms and the composition of microbial communities.
UV-resistance of microbial strains thriving in High-Altitude Andean Lakes was demonstrated and their mechanisms were partially characterized by genomic analysis, biochemical and physiological assays. Then, the existence of a network of physiological and molecular mechanisms triggered by ultraviolet light exposure was hypothesized and called "UV-resistome". It includes some or all of the following subsystems: (i) UV sensing and effective response regulators, (ii) UV-avoidance and shielding strategies, (iii) damage tolerance and oxidative stress response, (iv) energy management and metabolic resetting, and (v) DNA damage repair. Genes involved in the described UV-resistome were recently described in the genome of Nesterenkonia sp. Act20, an actinobacterium which showed survival to high UV-B doses as well as efficient photorepairing capability.
The aim of this work was to use a proteomic approach together with photoproduct measurements to help dissecting the molecular events involved in the adaptive response of a model High-Altitude Andean Lakes (HAAL) extremophilic actinobacterium, Nesterenkonia sp. Act20, under artificial UV-B radiation. Our results demonstrate that UV-B exposure induced over-abundance of a well-defined set of proteins while recovery treatments restored the proteomic profiles present before the UV-challenge. The proteins involved in this complex molecular network were categorized within the UV-resistome subsystems: damage tolerance and oxidative stress response, energy management and metabolic resetting, and DNA damage repair.

Project description:The consistent cold temperatures and large amount of precipitation in the Olympic and Cascade ranges of Washington State are thought to increase atmospheric deposition of contaminants in these high elevation locations. Total mercury and 28 organochlorine compounds were measured in composite, whole fish samples collected from 14 remote lakes in the Olympic, Mt. Rainer, and North Cascades National Parks. Mercury was detected in fish from all lakes sampled and ranged in concentration from 17 to 262 ug/kg wet weight. Only two organochlorines, total polychlorinated biphenyls (tPCB) and dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene (DDE), were detected in fish tissues (concentrations <25 ug/kg wet weight). No organochlorines were detected in sediments (MRL ≈1-5 ug/kg), while median total and methyl mercury in sediments were 30.4 and 0.34 ug/kg (dry weight), respectively. Using a targeted rainbow trout cDNA microarray with known genes, we detected significant differences in liver transcriptional responses, including metabolic, endocrine, and immune-related genes, in fish collected from a contaminated lake compared to a lake with a lower contaminant load. Overall, our results suggest that local urban areas are contributing to the observed contaminant patterns, while the transcriptional changes point to a biological response associated with exposure to these contaminants in fish. Specifically, the gene expression pattern leads us to hypothesize a role for mercury in disrupting the metabolic and reproductive pathways in fish from high elevation lakes in western Washington.
