Project description:BackgroundAcetic acid bacteria (AAB) are well known producers of commercially used exopolysaccharides, such as cellulose and levan. Kozakia (K.) baliensis is a relatively new member of AAB, which produces ultra-high molecular weight levan from sucrose. Throughout cultivation of two K. baliensis strains (DSM 14400, NBRC 16680) on sucrose-deficient media, we found that both strains still produce high amounts of mucous, water-soluble substances from mannitol and glycerol as (main) carbon sources. This indicated that both Kozakia strains additionally produce new classes of so far not characterized EPS.ResultsBy whole genome sequencing of both strains, circularized genomes could be established and typical EPS forming clusters were identified. As expected, complete ORFs coding for levansucrases could be detected in both Kozakia strains. In K. baliensis DSM 14400 plasmid encoded cellulose synthase genes and fragments of truncated levansucrase operons could be assigned in contrast to K. baliensis NBRC 16680. Additionally, both K. baliensis strains harbor identical gum-like clusters, which are related to the well characterized gum cluster coding for xanthan synthesis in Xanthomanas campestris and show highest similarity with gum-like heteropolysaccharide (HePS) clusters from other acetic acid bacteria such as Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus and Komagataeibacter xylinus. A mutant strain of K. baliensis NBRC 16680 lacking EPS production on sucrose-deficient media exhibited a transposon insertion in front of the gumD gene of its gum-like cluster in contrast to the wildtype strain, which indicated the essential role of gumD and of the associated gum genes for production of these new EPS. The EPS secreted by K. baliensis are composed of glucose, galactose and mannose, respectively, which is in agreement with the predicted sugar monomer composition derived from in silico genome analysis of the respective gum-like clusters.ConclusionsBy comparative sugar monomer and genome analysis, the polymeric substances secreted by K. baliensis can be considered as unique HePS. Via genome sequencing of K. baliensis DSM 14400 + NBRC 16680 we got first insights into the biosynthesis of these novel HePS, which is related to xanthan and acetan biosynthesis. Consequently, the present study provides the basis for establishment of K. baliensis strains as novel microbial cell factories for biotechnologically relevant, unique polysaccharides.

Project description:BackgroundKozakia baliensis NBRC 16680 secretes a gum-cluster derived heteropolysaccharide and forms a surface pellicle composed of polysaccharides during static cultivation. Furthermore, this strain exhibits two colony types on agar plates; smooth wild-type (S) and rough mutant colonies (R). This switch is caused by a spontaneous transposon insertion into the gumD gene of the gum-cluster, resulting in a heteropolysaccharide secretion deficient, rough phenotype. To elucidate, whether this is a directed switch triggered by environmental factors, we checked the number of R and S colonies under different growth conditions including ethanol and acetic acid supplementation. Furthermore, we investigated the tolerance of R and S strains against ethanol and acetic acid in shaking and static growth experiments. To get new insights into the composition and function of the pellicle polysaccharide, the polE gene of the R strain was additionally deleted, as it was reported to be involved in pellicle formation in other acetic acid bacteria.ResultsThe number of R colonies was significantly increased upon growth on acetic acid and especially ethanol. The morphological change from K. baliensis NBRC 16680 S to R strain was accompanied by changes in the sugar contents of the produced pellicle EPS. The R:ΔpolE mutant strain was not able to form a regular pellicle anymore, but secreted an EPS into the medium, which exhibited a similar sugar monomer composition as the pellicle polysaccharide isolated from the R strain. The R strain had a markedly increased tolerance towards acetic acid and ethanol compared to the other NBRC 16680 strains (S, R:ΔpolE). A relatively high intrinsic acetic acid tolerance was also observable for K. baliensis DSM 14400T, which might indicate diverse adaptation mechanisms of different K. baliensis strains in altering natural habitats.ConclusionThe results suggest that the genetically triggered R phenotype formation is directly related to increased acetic acid and ethanol tolerance. The polE gene turned out to be involved in the formation of a cell-associated, capsular polysaccharide, which seems to be essential for increased ethanol/acetic tolerance in contrast to the secreted gum-cluster derived heteropolysaccharide. The genetic and morphological switch could represent an adaptive evolutionary step during the development of K. baliensis NBRC 16680 in course of changing environmental conditions.

Project description:Purpose:The goals of this study are to clarify the B. subtilis NBRC 16449 response to soybeans. Methods: B. subtilis NBRC 16449 cells were aerobically cultured in liquid LB, LB solidified with agar, or on surface of boiled soybeans to logarithmic growth phase. Total RNAs were extracted from bacterial cells by Hot-Phenol method. Samples for RNA-seq were prepared according to Illmina protocol available from the manufacture. The sequence reads that passed quality filters were analyzed at the transcript isoform level with bowtie v0.11.2. Results: Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped around 15 million sequence reads per sample to the whole genome of B. subtilis BEST195 and identified 4271 transcripts in B. subtilis NBRC 16449 with Bowtie aligner. Read count per genome was extracted from known gene annotations with HTSeq program. Compared the transcriptomes of B. subtilis NBRC 16449 grown on LB solidified with agar to that grown on surface of boiled soybeans, about 5% of genes showed the different expression levels.
