Project description:Clues to the evolutionary steps producing innovations in oxygenic photosynthesis may be preserved in the genomes of organisms phylogenetically placed between non-photosynthetic Vampirovibrionia (formerly Melainabacteria) and the thylakoid-containing Cyanobacteria. However, only two species with published genomes are known to occupy this phylogenetic space, both within the genus Gloeobacter. Here, we describe nearly complete, metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) of an uncultured organism phylogenetically placed near Gloeobacter, for which we propose the name Candidatus Aurora vandensis {Au'ro.ra. L. fem. n. aurora, the goddess of the dawn in Roman mythology; van.de'nsis. N.L. fem. adj. vandensis of Lake Vanda, Antarctica}. The MAG of A. vandensis contains homologs of most genes necessary for oxygenic photosynthesis including key reaction center proteins. Many accessory subunits associated with the photosystems in other species either are missing from the MAG or are poorly conserved. The MAG also lacks homologs of genes associated with the pigments phycocyanoerethrin, phycoeretherin and several structural parts of the phycobilisome. Additional characterization of this organism is expected to inform models of the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis.

Project description:Gloeobacter rhodopsin (GR) is a cyanobacterial proton pump which can be potentially applied to optogenetics. We solved the crystal structure of GR and found that it has overall similarity to the homologous proton pump from Salinibacter ruber, xanthorhodopsin (XR). We identified distinct structural characteristics of GR's hydrogen bonding network in the transmembrane domain as well as the displacement of extracellular sides of the transmembrane helices relative to those of XR. Employing Raman spectroscopy and flash-photolysis, we found that GR in the crystals exists in a state which displays retinal conformation and photochemical cycle similar to the functional form observed in lipids. Based on the crystal structure of GR, we selected a site for spin labeling to determine GR's oligomerization state using double electron-electron resonance (DEER) spectroscopy and demonstrated the pH-dependent pentamer formation of GR. Determination of the structure of GR as well as its pentamerizing propensity enabled us to reveal the role of structural motifs (extended helices, 3-omega motif and flipped B-C loop) commonly found among light-driven bacterial pumps in oligomer formation. Here we propose a new concept to classify these pumps based on the relationship between their oligomerization propensities and these structural determinants.

Project description:Background: Ependymomas encompass multiple, clinically relevant tumor types based on localization and molecular profiles. Although tumors of the methylation class “spinal ependymoma” (SP-EPN) represent the most common intramedullary neoplasms in children and adults, their developmental origin is ill-defined, molecular data are scarce, and the potential heterogeneity within SP-EPN remains unexplored. The only known recurrent genetic events in SP-EPN are loss of chromosome 22q and NF2 mutations, but neither types and frequency of these alterations nor their clinical meaning have been described in a large, epigenetically defined series. Methods: We mapped SP-EPN transcriptomes (n=76) to developmental atlases of the developing and adult spinal cord to uncover potential developmental origins of these tumors. In addition, transcriptomic, epigenetic (n=234), genetic (n=140), and clinical analyses (n=115) were integrated for a detailed overview on this entity. Results: Integration of transcriptomic ependymoma data with single-cell atlases of the spinal cord identified mature adult ependymal cells to display highest similarities to SP-EPN. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of tumor data together with integrated analysis of methylation profiles identified two molecular SP-EPN subtypes. Subtype 1 predominantly contained NF2 wild type sequences with regular NF2 expression but revealed more extensive copy number alterations. Subtype 2 harbored previously known germline or sporadic NF2 mutations and was NF2-deficient in most cases, more often showed multilocular disease, and demonstrated a significantly reduced progression-free survival. Conclusion: Based on integrated molecular profiling of a large tumor series we identify two distinct SP-EPN subtypes with important implications for genetic counseling, patient surveillance, and drug development priorities.
