Project description:Microbes that can recycle one-carbon (C1) greenhouse gases into fuels and chemicals are vital for the biosustainability of future industries. Acetogens are the most efficient known microbes for fixing carbon oxides CO2 and CO. Understanding proteome allocation is important for metabolic engineering as it dictates metabolic fitness. Here, we use absolute proteomics to quantify intracellular concentrations for >1,000 proteins in the model-acetogen Clostridium autoethanogenum grown on three gas mixtures. We detect prioritisation of proteome allocation for C1 fixation and significant expression of proteins involved in the production of acetate and ethanol as well as proteins with unclear functions. The data also revealed which isoenzymes are important. Integration of proteomic and metabolic flux data demonstrated that enzymes catalyse high fluxes with high concentrations and high in vivo catalytic rates. We show that flux throughput was dominantly controlled through enzyme catalytic rates rather than concentrations. Our work serves as a reference dataset and advances systems-level understanding and engineering of acetogens.

Project description:Background Lactococcus lactis is recognised as a safe (GRAS) microorganism and has hence gained interest in numerous biotechnological approaches. As it is fastidious for several amino acids, optimization of processes which involve this organism requires a thorough understanding of its metabolic regulations during multisubstrate growth. Results Using glucose limited continuous cultivations, specific growth rate dependent metabolism of L. Lactis including utilization of amino acids was studied based on extracellular metabolome, global transcriptome and proteome analysis. A new growth medium was designed with reduced amino acid concentrations to increase precision of measurements of consumption of amino acids. Consumption patterns were calculated for all 20 amino acids and measured carbon balance showed good fit of the data at all growth rates studied. It was observed that metabolism of L. lactis became more efficient with rising specific growth rate in the range 0.10 – 0.60 h-1, indicated by 30% increase in biomass yield based on glucose consumption, 50% increase in efficiency of nitrogen use for biomass synthesis, and 40% reduction in energy spilling. The latter was realized by decrease in the overall product formation and higher efficiency of incorporation of amino acids into biomass. L. lactis global transcriptome and proteome profiles showed good correlation supporting the general idea of transcription level control of bacterial metabolism, but the data indicated that substrate transport systems together with lower part of glycolysis in L. lactis were presumably under allosteric control. Conclusions The current study demonstrates advantages of the usage of strictly controlled continuous cultivation methods combined with multi-omics approach for quantitative understanding of amino acid and energy metabolism of Lactococcus lactis which is a valuable new knowledge for development of balanced growth media, gene manipulations for desired product formation etc. Moreover, collected dataset is an excellent input for developing metabolic models. For microarray analysis, steady state chemostat culture of L. lactis IL1403 was used as reference (? = 0.10 1/h). Subsequent quasi steady state points from A-stat experiment at specific growth rates 0.52 ± 0.03; 0.42 ± 0.02; 0.29 ± 0.01 1/h in biological duplicates and 0.17 1/h were compared to the reference sample.

Project description:Accurate measurements of cellular protein concentrations are invaluable to quantitative studies of gene expression and physiology in living cells. Here, we developed a versatile mass spectrometric workflow based on data-independent acquisition proteomics (DIA/SWATH) together with a novel protein inference algorithm (xTop). We used this workflow to accurately quantify absolute protein abundances in E. coli for >2000 proteins over >60 growth conditions, including nutrient limitations, non-metabolic stresses and non-planktonic states. The resulting high-quality dataset of protein mass fractions allowed us to characterize proteome responses from a coarse (groups of related proteins) to a fine (individual) protein level. Hereby, a plethora of novel biological findings could be elucidated, including the generic upregulation of low-abundant proteins under various metabolic limitations, the non-specificity of catabolic enzymes upregulated under carbon limitation, the lack of large-scale proteome reallocation under stress compared to nutrient limitations, as well as surprising strain-dependent effects important for biofilm formation. These results present valuable resources for the systems biology community and can be used for future multi-omics studies of gene regulation and metabolic control in E. coli.

Project description:Cyanobacteria are oxygenic photoautotrophs notable for their ability to utilize atmospheric CO2 as the major source of carbon. The prospect of using cyanobacteria in converting solar energy and high concentrations of CO2 (e.g. flue gas from coal power plants) efficiently into biomass and renewable energy sources is of interest to many research fields. In order to guide further advances in this area, a better understanding about the metabolic changes that occur under conditions of high CO2 is important. The objective of this study is to utilize genome-wide microarray expression profiling in the unicellular diazotrophic cyanobacterium Cyanothece 51142 grown in 8% CO2-enriched air and to determined the impact of high CO2 on cyanobacterial cell physiology and growth.

Project description:Biological carbon fixation is foundational to the biosphere. Most autotrophs are thought to possess one carbon fixation pathway. The hydrothermal vent tubeworm Riftia pachyptila’s chemoautotrophic symbionts, however, possess two functional pathways: the Calvin Benson-Bassham (CBB) and the reductive tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) cycles. Little is known about how Riftia’s symbionts and related organisms coordinate the functioning of these two pathways. Here we investigated net carbon fixation rates, transcriptional/metabolic responses, and transcriptional co-expression patterns of Riftia pachyptila’s endosymbionts by incubating tubeworms at environmental pressures, temperature, and geochemistry. Results showed that rTCA and CBB transcriptional patterns varied in response to different geochemical regimes and that each pathway is allied to specific metabolic processes, suggesting distinctive yet complementary roles in metabolic function. Net carbon fixation rates were also exemplary, and accordingly we propose that co-activity of CBB and rTCA may be an adaptation for maintaining high carbon fixation rates, conferring a fitness advantage in dynamic vent environments.

Project description:In contrast to batch cultivation, chemostat cultivation allows the identification of carbon source responses without interference by carbon-catabolite repression, accumulation of toxic products, and differences in specific growth rate. This study focuses on the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, grown in aerobic, carbon-limited chemostat cultures. Genome-wide transcript levels and in vivo fluxes were compared for growth on two sugars, glucose and maltose, and for two C2-compounds, ethanol and acetate. In contrast to previous reports on batch cultures, few genes (180 genes) responded to changes of the carbon source by a changed transcript level. Very few transcript levels were changed when glucose as the growth-limiting nutrient was compared with maltose (33 transcripts), or when acetate was compared with ethanol (16 transcripts). Although metabolic flux analysis using a stoichiometric model revealed major changes in the central carbon metabolism, only 117 genes exhibited a significantly different transcript level when sugars and C2-compounds were provided as the growthlimiting nutrient. Despite the extensive knowledge on carbon source regulation in yeast, many of the carbon source-responsive genes encoded proteins with unknown or incompletely characterized biological functions. In silico promoter analysis of carbon source-responsive genes confirmed the involvement of several known transcriptional regulators and suggested the involvement of additional regulators. Transcripts involved in the glyoxylate cycle and gluconeogenesis showed a good correlation with in vivo fluxes. This correlation was, however, not observed for other important pathways, including the pentose-phosphate pathway, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and, in particular, glycolysis. These results indicate that in vivo fluxes in the central carbon metabolism of S. cerevisiae grown in steadystate, carbon-limited chemostat cultures are controlled to a large extent via post-transcriptional mechanisms. Experiment Overall Design: Cultivation of microorganisms in chemostats offers numerous advantages for studying the structure and regulation of metabolic networks (11). In chemostat cultures, individual culture parameters can be changed, while keeping other relevant physical and chemical culture parameters (composition of synthetic medium, pH, temperature, aeration, etc.) constant. An especially important parameter in this respect is the specific growth rate, which, in a chemostat, is equal to the dilution rate, which can be accurately controlled. This allows the experimenter to investigate the effects of environmental changes or genetic interventions at a fixed specific growth rate, even if these changes result in different specific growth rates in batch cultures. In a chemostat, growth can be limited by a single, selected nutrient. The very low residual concentrations of this growth-limiting nutrient in chemostat cultures alleviate effects of catabolite repression and inactivation. Furthermore, these low residual substrate concentrations prevent substrate toxicity, which, for example, occurs when S. cerevisiae is grown on ethanol or acetate as the carbon source in batch cultures . Experiment Overall Design: The central goal of the present study is to assess to what extent carbon source-dependent regulation of fluxes through central carbon metabolism in S. cerevisiae is regulated at the level of transcription. To this end, we compare the transcriptome of carbon-limited, aerobic chemostat cultures grown on four different carbon sources: glucose, maltose, ethanol, and acetate. Data from the transcriptome analysis are compared with flux distribution profiles calculated with a stoichiometric metabolic network model. Questions that will be addressed are as follows: (i) does glucose-limited aerobic cultivation lead to a complete alleviation of glucose-catabolite repression; (ii) how (in)complete is our understanding of the genes involved in the transcriptional response of S. cerevisiae to four of the most common carbon sources for this yeast; and (iii) to what extent do transcriptome analyses with microarrays provide a reliable indication of flux distribution in metabolic networks?

Project description:Dynamic model utilizing mass action kinetics to compute the functional states of the E.coli glycolytic proteome, providing insight into distribution of catalytic activities of enzymes for different metabolic states. Glycolytic model is derived from the iML1515 E.coli constraint-based reconstruction and contains 17 enzyme modules (12 enzymes plus an additional isozyme for PFK, FBP, FBA, PGM, and PYK). Each enzyme module represents the microscopic steps of the enzymatic mechanism using mass action kinetics and the MASSef package for enzyme fitting (https://github.com/opencobra/MASSef). Two ensembles of 1000 models were parameterized without prior knowledge of enzyme concentrations using E.coli growth data from (DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cels.2015.09.008). One ensemble representing growth on a glucose carbon source and the other representing growth on a pyruvate carbon source, and the parameterized ensembles were simulated to steady state. The ensembles were used to elucidate thermodynamic shift in the metabolic state, and fractional abundances for individual enzyme states were calculated using the model, providing insight into how catalytic activity is distributed across isozymes. All models associated with the example are found in the GitHub repository at (https://github.com/SBRG/MASSpy-publication/case-study), including iPython notebooks to construct all model variations presented in the publication.

Project description:Acetogens are promising cell factories for producing fuels and chemicals from waste feedstocks via gas fermentation, but quantitative characterization of carbon, energy, and redox metabolism is required to guide their rational metabolic engineering. Here, we explore acetogen gas fermentation using physiological, metabolomics, and transcriptomics data for Clostridium autoethanogenum steady-state chemostat cultures grown on syngas at various gas-liquid mass transfer rates. We observe that C. autoethanogenum shifts from acetate to ethanol production to maintain ATP homeostasis at higher biomass concentrations but reaches a limit at a molar acetate/ethanol ratio of ∼1. This regulatory mechanism eventually leads to depletion of the intracellular acetyl-CoA pool and collapse of metabolism. We accurately predict growth phenotypes using a genome-scale metabolic model. Modeling revealed that the methylene-THF reductase reaction was ferredoxin reducing. This work provides a reference dataset to advance the understanding and engineering of arguably the first carbon fixation pathway on Earth.

Project description:Chemoautotrophic bacteria from the SUP05 clade often dominate anoxic waters in marine oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) where reduced sulfur can fuel carbon fixation and denitrification. Some members of the SUP05 clade are facultative aerobes that thrive at the boundaries of OMZs where they experience fluctuations in dissolved oxygen (DO). The degree to which SUP05 contribute to nitrate reduction in these regions depends on their sensitivity to oxygen. We evaluated growth and quantified differences in gene expression in Ca. T. autotrophicus strain EF1 from the SUP05 clade under high DO (22 μM), anoxic, and low DO (3.8 μM) concentrations. We show that strain EF1 cells respire oxygen and nitrate and that cells have higher growth rates, express more genes, and fix more carbon when oxygen becomes available for aerobic respiration. Evidence that facultatively aerobic SUP05 are more active and respire nitrate when oxygen becomes available at low concentrations suggests that they are an important source of nitrite across marine OMZ boundary layers.
