Project description:In this project, the metaproteome of the marine bacterioplankton was analyzed to assess its respone towards an algal bloom in the southern North Sea in spring 2010. Proteins were extracted applying two different methods: (i) applying chemical cell lysis using trifluoroethanol in combination with in-solution digest and (ii) mechanical cell lysis applying bead beating, SDS-PAGE prefractionation and in-gel digest. Both samples were analyzed by nanoLC and ESI-iontrap MS. In case of the TFE lysis samples, also nanoLC-MALDI-TOF MS was applied.

Project description:Polyamines, such as putrescine and spermidine, are aliphatic organic compounds with multiple amino groups. They are found ubiquitously in marine systems. However, compared with the extensive studies on the concentration and fate of other dissolved organic nitrogen compounds in seawater, such as dissolved free amino acids (DFAA), investigations of bacterially-mediated polyamine transformations have been rare. Bioinformatic analysis identified genes encoding polyamine transporters in 74 of 109 marine bacterial genomes surveyed, a surprising frequency for a class of organic nitrogen compounds not generally recognized as an important source of carbon and nitrogen for marine bacterioplankton. The genome sequence of marine model bacterium Silicibacter pomeroyi DSS-3 contains a number of genes putatively involved in polyamine use, including six four-gene ATP-binding cassette transport systems. In the present study, polyamine uptake and metabolism by S. pomeroyi was examined to confirm the role of putative polyamine-related genes, and to investigate how well current gene annotations reflect function. A comparative whole-genome microarray approach (Bürgmann et al., 2007) allowed us to identify key genes for transport and metabolism of spermidine in this bacterium, and specify candidate genes for in situ monitoring of polyamine transformations in marine bacterioplankton communities.

Project description:Marine snow plays a central role in carbon cycling. It consists of organic particles and particle-associated (PA) microbMarine snow plays a central role in carbon cycling. It consists of organic particles and particle-associated (PA) microbial communities that are embedded in a sugary matrix. Metaproteomic analysis offers the unique opportunity to gain unprecedented insight into the microbial community composition and biomolecular activity of environmental samples. In order to realize this potential for marine PA microbial communities, new methods of protein extraction must be developed. In this study, we used 1D-SDS-PAGEs and LC-MS/MS to compare the efficiency of six established protein extraction protocols for their applicability of metaproteomic analyses of the PA microbial community in the North Sea. A combination of SDS-buffer extraction and bead beating resulted in the greatest number of identified protein groups. As expected, a metagenomic database of the same environmental sample increased the number of protein identification by approximately 50%. To demonstrate the application of our established protocol, particulate bacterioplankton samples collected during spring phytoplankton bloom in 2009 near the island Helgoland, were analysed by a GeLC-MS/MS-based metaproteomic approach. Our results indicated that there are only slight differences in the taxonomical distribution between free-living (FL) and PA bacteria but that the abundance of protein groups involved in polysaccharide degradation, motility and particle specific stress (oxygen limitation, nutrient limitation, heavy metal stress) is higher in the PA fractions. ial communities that are embedded in a sugary matrix.

Silicibacter pomeroyi DSS-3 cells were grown in chemostat in a modified marine basal medium (MBM) containing spermidine as sole carbon and nitrogen source. Serine was used as a substrate to provide comparative data for an amino acid. After reach stable condition, total RNA were extracted, mRNA were purified and aa-aRNA were amplified and fluoresently labled before hybridize on array chips. The array design is described in Burgmann et al., 2007

Project description:Marine microalgae (phytoplankton) mediate almost half of the worldwide photosynthetic carbon dioxide fixation and therefore play a pivotal role in global carbon cycling, most prominently during massive phytoplankton blooms. Phytoplankton biomass consists of considerable proportions of polysaccharides, substantial parts of which are rapidly remineralized by heterotrophic bacteria. We analyzed the diversity, activity and functional potential of such polysaccharide-degrading bacteria in different size fractions during a diverse spring phytoplankton bloom at Helgoland Roads (southern North Sea) at high temporal resolution using microscopic, physicochemical, biodiversity, metagenome and metaproteome analyses.

Project description:About one half of the global, biogenic carbon dioxide fixation into organic matter is driven by microscopic algae in the surface oceans. These microalgal activities generate, among other molecules, polysaccharides that are food for and recycled by bacteria with polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs). These genetic clusters of co-evolved genes, which work together in recognition, depolymerizing and uptake of one type of polysaccharide. However, we rarely know the substrates of PULs present in marine bacteria. Here we investigated the proteomic and physiological response of mannan PULs from marine Flavobacteriia isolated in the North Sea. The genomic clusters of these marine Bacteroidetes are related to PULs of human gut Bacteroides strains, which are known to digest α- and β-mannans from yeasts and plants respectively. Proteomics and defined growth experiments with these types of mannans as sole carbon source confirmed the functional prediction. Our data suggest that biochemical principles established for gut or terrestrial microbes apply to marine bacteria even though the PULs are evolutionary distant. Moreover, our data support discoveries from the 60th reporting mannans in microalgae suggesting that these polysaccharides play an important role in the marine carbon cycle.
