Project description:The study investigated the ability of selected (hyper-)thermophilic prokaryotes to grow anaerobically by the reduction of perchlorate and chlorate. Physiological, genomic and proteome analyses suggest that the Crenarchaeon Aeropyrum pernix reduces (per)chlorate with a periplasmic enzyme related to nitrate reductases, while it lacks a functional chlorite-disproportionating enzyme (Cld). A. pernix seems to rely on the chemical reactivity of reduced sulfur compounds with the toxic intermediate chlorite to complete the pathway. The chemical oxidation of thiosulfate (in excessive amounts present in the medium) to sulfate and the concomitant release of chloride anions from the reduction of chlorite are the products of a biotic-abiotic (per)chlorate reduction pathway in A. pernix. The apparent absence of Cld in two other (per)chlorate-reducing microorganisms and their dependence on sulfide for (per)chlorate reduction is consistent with earlier-made observations on (per)chlorate-reducing Archaeoglobus fulgidus. All here discussed microorganisms use strategies for complete (per)chlorate reduction that differ from the physiology of classical (per)chlorate-reducing mesophiles.

Project description:BackgroundAn R30 fraction from the growth medium of Aeropyrum pernix was analyzed for the protease that can digest the pathological prion protein isoform (PrP(Sc)) from different species (human, bovine, deer and mouse).Methodology/principal findingsDegradation of the PrP(Sc) isoform by the R30 fraction and the purified protease was evaluated using the 6H4 anti-PrP monoclonal antibody. Fragments from the N-terminal and C-terminal of PrP(Sc) were also monitored by Western blotting using the EB8 anti-PrP monoclonal antibody, and by dot blotting using the C7/5 anti-PrP monoclonal antibody, respectively. For detection of smaller peptides from incomplete digestion of PrP(Sc), the EB8 monoclonal antibody was used after precipitation with sodium phosphotungstate. Characterization of the purified active protease from the R30 fraction was achieved, through purification by fast protein liquid chromatography, and identification by tandem mass spectrometry the serine metalloprotease pernisine. SDS-PAGE and zymography show the purified pernisine plus its proregion with a molecular weight of ca. 45 kDa, and the mature purified pernisine as ca. 23 kDa. The purified pernisine was active between 58 °C and 99 °C, and between pH 3.5 and 8.0. The temperature and pH optima of the enzymatic activity of the purified pernisine in the presence of 1 mM CaCl(2) were 105 °C ± 0.5 °C and pH 6.5 ± 0.2, respectively.Conclusions/significanceOur study has identified and characterized pernisine as a thermostable serine metalloprotease that is secreted from A. pernix and that can digest the pathological prion protein PrP(Sc).

Project description:In contrast to the extensively studied eukaryal and bacterial protein secretion systems, comparatively less is known about how and which proteins cross the archaeal cell membrane. To identify secreted proteins of the hyperthermophilic archaeon Aeropyrum pernix K1 we used a proteomics approach to analyze the extracellular and cell surface protein fractions. The experimentally obtained data comprising 107 proteins were compared with the in silico predicted secretome. Because of the lack of signal peptide and cellular localization prediction tools specific for archaeal species, programs trained on eukaryotic and/or Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial signal peptide data sets were used. PSortB Gram-negative and Gram-positive analysis predicted 21 (1.2% of total ORFs) and 24 (1.4% of total ORFs) secreted proteins, respectively, from the entire A. pernix K1 proteome, 12 of which were experimentally identified in this work. Six additional proteins were predicted to follow non-classical secretion mechanisms using SecP algorithms. According to at least one of the two PSortB predictions, 48 proteins identified in the two fractions possess an unknown localization site. In addition, more than half of the proteins do not contain signal peptides recognized by current prediction programs. This suggests that known mechanisms only partly describe archaeal protein secretion. The most striking characteristic of the secretome was the high number of transport-related proteins identified from the ATP-binding cassette (ABC), tripartite ATP-independent periplasmic, ATPase, small conductance mechanosensitive ion channel (MscS), and dicarboxylate amino acid-cation symporter transporter families. In particular, identification of 21 solute-binding receptors of the ABC superfamily of the 24 predicted in silico confirms that ABC-mediated transport represents the most frequent strategy adopted by A. pernix for solute translocation across the cell membrane.

Project description:An O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase (OASS) from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Aeropyrum pernix K1, which shares the pyridoxal 5'-phosphate binding motif with both OASS and cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), was cloned and expressed by using Escherichia coli Rosetta(DE3). The purified protein was a dimer and contained pyridoxal 5'-phosphate. It was shown to be an enzyme with CBS activity as well as OASS activity in vitro. The enzyme retained 90% of its activity after a 6-h incubation at 100 degrees C. In the O-acetyl-L-serine sulfhydrylation reaction, it had a pH optimum of 6.7, apparent K(m) values for O-acetyl-L-serine and sulfide of 28 and below 0.2 mM, respectively, and a rate constant of 202 s(-1). In the L-cystathionine synthetic reaction, it showed a broad pH optimum in the range of 8.1 to 8.8, apparent K(m) values for L-serine and L-homocysteine of 8 and 0.51 mM, respectively, and a rate constant of 0.7 s(-1). A. pernix OASS has a high activity in the L-cysteine desulfurization reaction, which produces sulfide and S-(2,3-hydroxy-4-thiobutyl)-L-cysteine from L-cysteine and dithiothreitol.

Project description:Little is known regarding the DNA methyltransferases (MTases) in hyperthermophilic archaea. In this study, we focus on an MTase from Aeropyrum pernix K1, a hyperthermophilic archaeon that is found in hydrothermal vents and whose optimum growth temperature is 90°C to 95°C. From genomic sequence analysis, A. pernix K1 has been predicted to have a restriction-modification system (R-M system). The restriction endonuclease from A. pernix K1 (known as ApeKI from New England BioLabs Inc. [catalog code R06435]) has been described previously, but the properties of the MTase from A. pernix K1 (M.ApeKI) have not yet been clarified. Thus, we demonstrated the properties of M.ApeKI. In this study, M.ApeKI was expressed in Escherichia coli strain JM109 and affinity purified using its His tag. The recognition sequence of M.ApeKI was determined by methylation activity and bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq). High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to detect the position of the methyl group in methylated cytosine. As a result, it was clarified that M.ApeKI adds the methyl group at the C-5 position of the second cytosine in 5'-GCWGC-3'. Moreover, we also determined that the MTase optimum temperature was over 70°C and that it is strongly tolerant to high temperatures. M.ApeKI is the first highly thermostable DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase to be evaluated by experimental evidence. IMPORTANCE In general, thermophilic bacteria with optimum growth temperatures over or equal to 60°C have been predicted to include only N4-methylcytosine or N6-methyladenine as methylated bases in their DNA, because 5-methylcytosine is susceptible to deamination by heat. However, from this study, A. pernix K1, with an optimum growth temperature at 95°C, was demonstrated to produce a DNA (cytosine-5)-methyltransferase. Thus, A. pernix K1 presumably has 5-methylcytosine in its DNA and may produce an original repair system for the expected C-to-T mutations. M.ApeKI was demonstrated to be tolerant to high temperatures; thus, we expect that M.ApeKI may be valuable for the development of a novel analysis system or epigenetic editing tool.
