Complete genome sequence of phototrophic betaproteobacterium Rubrivivax gelatinosus IL144.

Project description:Rubrivivax gelatinosus is a facultative photoheterotrophic betaproteobacterium living in freshwater ponds, sewage ditches, activated sludge, and food processing wastewater. There have not been many studies on photosynthetic betaproteobacteria. Here we announce the complete genome sequence of the best-studied phototrophic betaproteobacterium, R. gelatinosus IL-144 (NBRC 100245).

Essential Genes Predicted in the Genome of Rubrivivax gelatinosus.

Project description:UnlabelledRubrivivax gelatinosus is a betaproteobacterium with impressive metabolic diversity. It is capable of phototrophy, chemotrophy, two different mechanisms of sugar metabolism, fermentation, and H2 gas production. To identify core essential genes, R. gelatinosus was subjected to saturating transposon mutagenesis and high-throughput sequencing (TnSeq) analysis using nutrient-rich, aerobic conditions. Results revealed that virtually no primary metabolic genes are essential to the organism and that genomic redundancy only explains a portion of the nonessentiality, but some biosynthetic pathways are still essential under nutrient-rich conditions. Different essentialities of different portions of the Pho regulatory pathway suggest that overexpression of the regulon is toxic and hint at a larger connection between phosphate regulation and cellular health. Lastly, various essentialities of different tRNAs hint at a more complex situation than would be expected for such a core process. These results expand upon research regarding cross-organism gene essentiality and further enrich the study of purple nonsulfur bacteria.ImportanceMicrobial genomic data are increasing at a tremendous rate, but physiological characterization of those data lags far behind. One mechanism of high-throughput physiological characterization is TnSeq, which uses high-volume transposon mutagenesis and high-throughput sequencing to identify all of the essential genes in a given organism's genome. Here TnSeq was used to identify essential genes in the metabolically versatile betaproteobacterium Rubrivivax gelatinosus The results presented here add to the growing TnSeq field and also reveal important aspects of R. gelatinosus physiology, which are applicable to researchers working on metabolically flexible organisms.
