Project description:The nitrogen rich compound guanidine occurs widely in nature and is used by microbes as a nitrogen source, but microorganisms that grow on guanidine have not yet been discovered. Here we show that complete ammonia-oxidizing microbes (comammox), but no other known nitrifiers, encode homologues of a guanidinase and that the comammox isolate Nitrospira inopinata grows on guanidine as sole source of energy and reductant. Proteomics, kinetic enzyme characterization, and the crystal structure of the N. inopinata guanidinase homologue demonstrated that it is a bona fide guanidinase. Transcription of comammox guanidinases was induced in wastewater treatment plant microbiomes upon incubation with guanidine, and guanidine degradation was detected in these systems. The discovery of guanidine as a selective growth substrate for comammox shows a unique niche of these globally important nitrifiers and offers new options for their isolation as well as for targeted manipulation of nitrifier communities.

Project description:Nitrification, the oxidation of ammonia via nitrite to nitrate, has always been considered to be a two-step process catalysed by chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms oxidizing either ammonia or nitrite. No known nitrifier carries out both steps, although complete nitrification should be energetically advantageous. This functional separation has puzzled microbiologists for a century. Here we report on the discovery and cultivation of a completely nitrifying bacterium from the genus Nitrospira, a globally distributed group of nitrite oxidizers. The genome of this chemolithoautotrophic organism encodes the pathways both for ammonia and nitrite oxidation, which are concomitantly activated during growth by ammonia oxidation to nitrate. Genes affiliated with the phylogenetically distinct ammonia monooxygenase and hydroxylamine dehydrogenase genes of Nitrospira are present in many environments and were retrieved on Nitrospira contigs in new metagenomes from engineered systems. These findings fundamentally change our picture of nitrification and point to completely nitrifying Nitrospira as key components of nitrogen-cycling microbial communities.

Project description:Marine sponges represent one of the few eukaryotic groups that ubiquitously harbor symbiotic members of the Thaumarchaeota, which are important chemoautotrophic ammonia-oxidizers in many environments. However in most studies, direct demonstration of ammonia-oxidation by these archaea within sponges is lacking, and little is known about sponge-specific adaptations of archaeal ammonia oxidizers (AOA). In this study, we characterized the thaumarchaeal symbiont of the marine sponge Ianthella basta using metaproteogenomics, fluorescence in situ hybridization, qPCR and direct isotope-based functional assays. We demonstrate that the I. basta symbiont is not closely related to other genomically sequenced sponge AOA and is a member of a new genus. “Candidatus Nitrosospongia bastadiensis” is an abundant symbiont that is solely responsible for nitrite formation from ammonia in I. basta that surprisingly does not harbor nitrite-oxidizing microbes. Consistently, Ca N. bastadiensis encodes and expresses the genetic repertoire required for chemolithoautotrophic ammonia oxidation. Furthermore, we show that this AOA is equipped with an expanded set of extracellular subtilisin-like proteases, a metalloprotease unique among archaea, as well as a putative branched-chain amino acid ABC transporter. This repertoire is strongly indicative of a mixotrophic lifestyle and is (with slight variations) also found in other sponge-associated, but not in free-living AOA. We predict that this feature as well as an expanded and unique set of secreted serpins (protease inhibitors), a unique array of eukaryotic-like proteins, and a DNA-phosporothioation system likely involved in defense against foreign DNA, represent important adaptations of AOA to life within these ancient filter-feeding animals.

Project description:Nitrogen fixation is a highly energy-demanding process and highly regulated at multiple levels. The two major signals that regulate nitrogen fixation in most diazotrophs are oxygen and ammonia. In order to study the complex regulated mechanism and to highlight the complete nitrogen fixing system in genome level, here we present the transcriptional profiles of the nitrogen fixation genes of P.stutzeri A1501 in different growth conditions with a genome-wide DNA microarray. In this study, the three samples of "P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 0.1mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension","P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 0.1mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension-2" and "P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 0.1mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension-3" were three repeat experiments, while, the other three samples of "P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 20mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension-1", "P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 20mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension-2" and "P.stutzeri A1501 treated with 20mM ammonia and 0.5% Oxygen tension-3" were three repeat experiments. The gene expressions under these two growth phases were compared to investigate which genes' expression were effected by different ammonia concentrations.
