Biogenic transformation of Fe minerals, associated with extracellular electron transfer (EET), allows microorganisms to exploit high-potential refractory electron acceptors for energy generation. EET-capable thermophiles are dominated by hyperthermophilic archaea and Gram-positive bacteria. Information on their EET pathways is sparse. Here, we describe EET channels in the thermophilic Gram-positive bacterium <i>Carboxydothermus ferrireducens</i> that drive exoelectrogenesis and rapid conversion ...[more]

Project description:Haloalkaliphilic microorganisms are double extremophiles functioning optimally at high salinity and pH. Their typical habitats are soda lakes, representing geologically ancient ecosystems which are still widespread on Earth and supposedly harbor relict microbial communities. We compared metabolic features and their genomic determinants in two strains of a single natronophilic species Dethiobacter alkaliphilus, the only cultured representative of “Dethiobacteria” class within Bacillota phylum. The strains of D. alkaliphilus were previously isolated from geographically remote Mongolian and Kenyan soda lakes. The type strain AHT1T was described as a facultatively chemolithoautotrophic sulfidogen reducing or disproportionating sulfur or thiosulfate, while strain Z-1002 was isolated as a chemolithoautotrophic iron reducer. Here, we uncovered iron reducing ability of strain AHT1T, as well as the capability of strain Z-1002 for thiosulfate reduction and anaerobic Fe(II) oxidation. Key catabolic processes sustaining the growth of both strains appeared to fit the geochemical settings of two contrasting natural alkaline environments, sulfur-enriched soda lakes and iron-enriched serpentinites. This assumption was supported by meta-analysis of publicly available Dethiobacterial metagenomes, as well as by the enrichment of a novel phylotype from a deep subsurface non-serpentinizing slightly alkaline water after its amendment with an Fe(III) mineral. Genome analysis of D. alkaliphilus strains revealed that the most probable determinants of iron and sulfur redox transformations in the organism are multiheme c-type cytochromes. Their phylogeny reconstruction showed that sulfur and thiosulfate respiration is most probably provided by evolutionary early forms of unconventional octaheme tetrathionate and sulfite reductases sharing a root with structurally similar group of OmhA/OcwA Fe(III)-reductases. Large sets of other multihemes are likely to provide Fe(III) reduction in both strains. Also, several different, yet phylogenetically related, determinants of anaerobic Fe(II) oxidation were identified in Z-1002 genome, and the oxidation process was further experimentally proven. Considering these results and phylogenetic relatedness of D. alkaliphilus’s sulfur reductases with Fe(III) reducing cytochromes, but not with archetypal bacterial sulfur/thiosulfate reductases, we suggest that sustaining high variation of multiheme cytochromes is an effective adaptive strategy to occupy geochemically contrasting alkaline anaerobic environments. We further propose that sulfur-enriched soda lakes are secondary habitats for D. alkaliphilus comparing to Fe-rich serpentinites, and discuss the evolutionary traits which might occur in prokaryotes on a crucial junction of the biosphere’s history, when intensification of the sulfur cycle outweighed the global significance of the iron cycle.

Project description:The importance of the impact of human hormones on commensal microbiota and microbial biofilms is established in lots of studies. In the present investigation, we studied the proteome of biofilms and planktonic cultures of skin actinobacterium Cutibacterium acnes. In our investigation, we tested the effect of epinephrine in concentrations 5 nM (normal blood level) and 5 µM (1000-fold higher) on 72 h biofilms and planktonic cultures in comparison with controls without the hormone administration. Also, we compared the samples treated with epinephrine in different concentrations. Also, we investigated the differences between planktonic cultures and biofilms and how the hormone influences those differences. The present database contains the raw data of proteins changes in their concentrations in described conditions.

Project description:The importance of the impact of human hormones on commensal microbiota and microbial biofilms is established in lots of studies. In the present investigation, we studied the proteome of the biofilm matrix of the commensal actinobacterium Micrococcus luteus C01. In our investigation, we tested the effect of epinephrine in concentration 4.9×10-9 M on immature (24 h ) and mature (72 h) biofilms in comparison with controls without the hormone administration. We investigated the temporal changes in the matrix proteome during the incubation in control samples and in samples with epinephrine.

Project description:The seminal vesicles are male accessory sex glands that contribute the bulk of the seminal plasma in which mammalian spermatozoa are bathed during ejaculation. In addition to helping convey sperm through the ejaculatory duct, seminal vesicle secretions support sperm survival after ejaculation and influence the female reproductive tract to promote receptivity to pregnancy. Despite its biological importance, there is limited understanding of seminal vesicle fluid (SVF) composition with only 75 proteins having been identified in publicly available proteomic analyses. To address this limitation, here we report new preparative methodology involving sequential solubilization of mouse SVF in guanidine hydrochloride, prior to acetone precipitation and analysis by label-free quantitative mass spectrometry. This strategy identified 126 proteins, including 83 previously undetected in SVF. Members of the seminal vesicle secretory protein family were the most abundant, accounting for 79% of all peptide spectrum matches. Functional analysis of SVF proteins identified inflammation and formation of the vaginal plug as the two most prominent biological processes. Notable additional processes included modulation of sperm function and regulation of the female reproductive tract immune environment. Together, these findings provide a robust methodological framework for future SVF studies and identify novel proteins with the potential to influence both male and female reproductive health.

Project description:Spermatozoa acquire fertilization potential during passage through a highly specialized region of the extra-testicular ductal system known as the epididymis. In the absence of de novo gene transcription or protein translation, this functional transformation is extrinsically driven via the exchange of varied macromolecular cargo between spermatozoa and the surrounding luminal plasma. Key among these changes is a substantive remodeling of the sperm proteomic architecture, the scale of which has yet to be fully resolved. Here, we have exploited quantitative mass spectrometry-based proteomics to define the extent of changes associated with the maturation of mouse spermatozoa; reporting the identity of an unprecedented >6,000 proteins, encompassing the selective loss and gain of several hundred proteins. Further, we demonstrate epididymal driven activation of RHOA mediated signaling pathways is an important component of sperm maturation. These data contribute molecular insights into the complexity of proteomic changes associated with epididymal sperm maturation.

Project description:Background: Plaque psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by the development of red scaly plaques. To date psoriasis lesional skin transcriptome has been extensively studied, whereas only few proteomic studies of psoriatic skin are available. Aim: The aim of this study was to compare protein expression patterns of lesional and normally looking skin of psoriasis patients with skin of the healthy volunteers, reveal differentially expressed proteins and identify changes in cell metabolism caused by the disease. Methods: Skin samples of normally looking and lesional skin donated by psoriasis patients (n = 5) and samples of healthy skin donated by volunteers (n = 5) were analyzed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). After protein identification and data processing, the set of differentially expressed proteins was subjected to protein ontology analysis to characterize changes in biological processes, cell components and molecular functions in the patients' skin compared to skin of the healthy volunteers. Results: The performed analysis identified 405 and 59 differentially expressed proteins in lesional and normally looking psoriatic skin compared to healthy control. We discovered decreased expression of KNG1, APOE, HRG, THBS1 and PLG in normally looking skin of the patients. Presumably, these changes were needed to protect the epidermis from spontaneous activation of kallikrein-kinin system and delay the following development of inflammatory response. In lesional skin, we identified several large groups of proteins with coordinated expression. Mainly, these proteins were involved in different aspects of protein and RNA metabolism, namely ATP synthesis and consumption; intracellular trafficking of membrane-bound vesicles, pre-RNA processing, translation, chaperoning and degradation in proteasomes/immunoproteasomes. Conclusion: Our findings explain the molecular basis of metabolic changes caused by disease in skin lesions, such as faster cell turnover and higher metabolic rate. They also indicate on downregulation of kallikrein-kinin system in normally looking skin of the patients that would be needed to delay exacerbation of the disease.

Project description:The detection of disease-related plasma biomarkers has challenged the proteomic community for years. On the one hand there are many attractive features including the ease of collection and small volume needed for analysis, but on the other hand, the presence of high abundance proteins complicates technical sample preparation procedures and reduces proteome dynamic range. Data independent acquisition label free quantitation (DIA-LFQ) by mass spectrometry is an approach that partly overcomes the dynamic range issue; however, generating the peptide spectral reference libraries that allow extensive analysis of the plasma proteome can be a slow and expensive task which is unattainable for many laboratories. We investigated the re-purposing of publically available plasma proteome datasets and the impact on peptide/protein detection for DIA-LFQ. We carried out these studies in the context of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, seeking biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. We demonstrated the benefit in searching DIA data against multiple spectral libraries to show that complement activation was linked to response in these patients, confirming previous observations derived from proteomic analyses of PDAC tumours. Our workflow demonstrates that DIA-LFQ can be readily applied in the oncology setting for the putative assignment of clinically relevant plasma biomarkers.

Project description:T cells specifically recognize an antigen with a T cell receptor (TCR) consisting of α- and β-chain. The transgenic 1D1a mice were generated on the genetic background of the B10.D2(R101) line and expressed in their T cells the α-chain TCR (TCRα) specific to the allogeneic MHC molecule Н2-Kb. To evaluate effects of TCRα transgenesis on the qualitative and quantitative composition of plasma proteins, comparative proteome analysis was performed for both female and male transgenic 1D1a and wild-type B10.D2(R101) mice aged 3-, 6-, and 12-months.
