Project description:Among dozens of microbial DNA modifications regulating gene expression and host defense, phosphorothioation (PT) is the only known backbone modification, with sulfur inserted at a non-bridging oxygen by dnd and ssp gene families. Here we explored the distribution of PT genes in 13,663 human gut microbiome genomes, finding that 6.3% possessed dnd or ssp genes predominantly in Bacillota, Bacteroidota, and Pseudomonadota. This analysis uncovered several putative new PT synthesis systems, including Type 4 Bacteriophage Exclusion (BREX) brx genes, which were genetically validated in Bacteroides salyersiae. Mass spectrometric analysis of DNA from 226 gut microbiome isolates possessing dnd, ssp, and brx genes revealed 8 PT dinucleotide settings confirmed in 6 consensus sequences by PT-specific DNA sequencing. Genomic analysis showed PT enrichment in rRNA genes and depletion at gene boundaries. These results illustrate the power of the microbiome for discovering prokaryotic epigenetics and the widespread distribution of oxidation-sensitive PTs in gut microbes.

Project description:The R-loop is a common chromatin feature presented from prokaryotic to eukaryotic genomes and has been revealed to be involved in multiple cellular processes and associated with many human diseases. Here, we take the advantage of our recently developed ssDRIP-seq method to profile genome-wide R-loop levels of soybean (Glycine max).

Project description:DNA methylation is an important regulator of genome function in the eukaryotes, but it is currently unclear if the same is true in prokaryotes. While regulatory functions have been demonstrated for a small number of bacteria, there have been no large-scale studies of prokaryotic methylomes and the full repertoire of targets and biological functions of DNA methylation remains unclear. Here we applied single-molecule, real-time sequencing to directly study the methylomes of 232 phylogenetically diverse prokaryotes. Collectively, we identified 834 methylated motifs, enabling the specific annotation of 415 DNA methyltransferases (MTases), and adding substantially to existing databases of MTase specificities. While the majority of MTases function as components of restriction-modification systems, 139 MTases have no cognate restriction enzyme in the genome, suggesting some other functional role. Several of these âorphanâ MTases are conserved across species and exhibit patterns of DNA methylation consistent with known regulatory MTases. Based on these patterns of methylation, we identify candidate novel regulators of gene expression in several phyla of bacteria, and candidate regulators of DNA replication in Haloarchaea. Together these data substantially advance our knowledge of DNA restriction-modification systems, and hint at a wider role for methylation in prokaryotic genome regulation. Single-molecule, real-time sequencing of DNA modifications across 232 diverse prokaryotic genomes.

Project description:Analysis of microbial gene expression in response to physical and chemical gradients forming in the Columbia River, estuary, plume and coastal ocean was done in the context of the environmental data base. Gene expression was analyzed for 2,234 individual genes that were selected from fully sequenced genomes of 246 prokaryotic species (bacteria and archaea) as related to the nitrogen metabolism and carbon fixation. Seasonal molecular portraits of differential gene expression in prokaryotic communities during river-to-ocean transition were created using freshwater baseline samples (268, 270, 347, 002, 006, 207, 212).
