Project description:The SAR11 clade is one of the most abundant bacterioplankton groups in surface waters of most of the oceans and lakes. However, only 15 SAR11 phages have been isolated thus far, and only one of them belongs to the Myoviridae family (pelagimyophages). Here, we have analyzed 26 sequences of myophages that putatively infect the SAR11 clade. They have been retrieved by mining ca. 45 Gbp aquatic assembled cellular metagenomes and viromes. Most of the myophages were obtained from the cellular fraction (0.2 μm), indicating a bias against this type of virus in viromes. We have found the first myophages that putatively infect Candidatus Fonsibacter (freshwater SAR11) and another group putatively infecting bathypelagic SAR11 phylogroup Ic. The genomes have similar sizes and maintain overall synteny in spite of low average nucleotide identity values, revealing high similarity to marine cyanomyophages. Pelagimyophages recruited metagenomic reads widely from several locations but always much more from cellular metagenomes than from viromes, opposite to what happens with pelagipodophages. Comparing the genomes resulted in the identification of a hypervariable island that is related to host recognition. Interestingly, some genes in these islands could be related to host cell wall synthesis and coinfection avoidance. A cluster of curli-related proteins was widespread among the genomes, although its function is unclear.IMPORTANCE SAR11 clade members are among the most abundant bacteria on Earth. Their study is complicated by their great diversity and difficulties in being grown and manipulated in the laboratory. On the other hand, and due to their extraordinary abundance, metagenomic data sets provide enormous richness of information about these microbes. Given the major role played by phages in the lifestyle and evolution of prokaryotic cells, the contribution of several new bacteriophage genomes preying on this clade opens windows into the infection strategies and life cycle of its viruses. Such strategies could provide models of attack of large-genome phages preying on streamlined aquatic microbes.

Project description:D-galactose orally intake ameliorate DNCB-induced atopic dermatitis by modulating microbiota composition and quorum sensing. The increased abundance of bacteroidetes and decreased abundance of firmicutes was confirmed. By D-galactose treatment, Bacteroides population was increased and prevotella, ruminococcus was decreased which is related to atopic dermatitis.

Project description:In this report, we describe the selective cloning of large DNA fragments from magnetotactic metagenomes from various aquatic habitats. This was achieved by a two-step magnetic enrichment which allowed the mass collection of environmental magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) virtually free of nonmagnetic contaminants. Four fosmid libraries were constructed and screened by end sequencing and hybridization analysis using heterologous magnetosome gene probes. A total of 14 fosmids were fully sequenced. We identified and characterized two fosmids, most likely originating from two different alphaproteobacterial strains of MTB that contain several putative operons with homology to the magnetosome island (MAI) of cultivated MTB. This is the first evidence that uncultivated MTB exhibit similar yet differing organizations of the MAI, which may account for the diversity in biomineralization and magnetotaxis observed in MTB from various environments.

Project description:We present the de novo transcriptome sequencing, analysis and microarray development for a vertebrate herbivore, the woodrat (Neotoma spp.). This genus is of ecological and evolutionary interest, especially with respect to ingestion and hepatic metabolism of potentially toxic plant secondary compounds. We generated a liver transcriptome of the desert woodrat (Neotoma lepida) with the Roche 454 platform. The assembled contigs were well annotated using rodent references (99.7% annotation), and biotransformation function was reflected in the gene ontology. The transcriptome was used to develop a custom microarray (eArray, Agilent). To compare the effect of native diet/habitat and phylogenetic similarity, we performed 3 experiments with the Neotoma probes only: one across species with similar habitat niches (N. lepida versus N. bryanti, Palm Springs), one across species with different habitat niches (N. lepida versus N. bryanti, Caspers Wilderness), and one across populations within a species (N. bryant Palm Springs versus Caspers Wilderness). The resulting one-color arrays had high technical and biological quality. Probes designed from the woodrat transcriptome performed significantly better than functionally similar probes from the Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus). Biotransformation processes and functions were highly represented in the results. Comparisons between ecologically similar woodrat species revealed fewer gene expression differences than ecologically different woodrat species. The conspecific comparison had overall fewest differences. Gene expression was compared across 3 groups of woodrats: Neotoma lepida (n=4), N. bryanti Palm Springs (n=4), and N. bryanti Caspers Wilderness (n=4). Animals were fed a rabbit chow diet, called control; intake was monitored over 10 days, after which RNA was extracted from hepatic tissue. One-color arrays were performed.
