Project description:Nanosynbacter lyticus type strain TM7x was the first cultivated member of the broadly prevelent, but poorly udnerstood Candidate Phylum Radiation super-phylum. TM7x was shown to be an obligate epibiont with a host range including Schaalia odontolyticus strain XH001. The process of infecting a naive host goes through multiple phases, from an initial binding and interaction phase we call the initial encounter, to a rapid die off of infected host cells, killing phase, followed by regrowth of the host cells, regrowth phase, and finally a stable symbiosis between the species, stable symbiosis.To obtain a better understanding of the process by which these species establish a stable symbiosis, we measured the transcriptome using RNA sequencing across the course of infection. We sampled infected host, XH001/TM7x, during the initial interaction, regrowth, and after attaining stable symbiosis, as well as naive host controls grown under the same culture conditions.

Project description:Saccharibacteria Nanosynbacter lyticus strain TM7x is a member of the broadly distributed candidate phylum radiation. These bacteria have ultrasmall cell sizes, have reduced genomes, and live as epibionts on the surfaces of other bacteria. The mechanisms by which they establish and maintain this relationship are not yet fully understood. The transcriptomes of the epibiont TM7x and its host bacteria Schaalia odontolytica strain XH001 were captured across the establishment of symbiosis during both the initial interaction and stable symbiosis. The results showed a dynamic interaction with large shifts in gene expression for both species between the initial encounter and stable symbiosis, notably in transporter genes. During stable symbiosis, the host XH001 showed higher gene expression for peptidoglycan biosynthesis, mannosylation, cell cycle and stress-related genes, whereas it showed lower expression of chromosomal partitioning genes. This was consistent with the elongated cell shape seen in XH001 infected with TM7x and our discovery that infection resulted in thickened cell walls. Within TM7x, increased pili, type IV effector genes, and arginine catabolism/biosynthesis gene expression during stable symbiosis implied a key role for these functions in the interaction. Consistent with its survival and persistence in the human microbiome as an obligate epibiont with reduced de novo biosynthetic capacities, TM7x also showed higher levels of energy production and peptidoglycan biosynthesis, but lower expression of stress-related genes, during stable symbiosis. These results imply that TM7x and its host bacteria keep a delicate balance in order to sustain an episymbiotic lifestyle. IMPORTANCE Nanosynbacter lyticus type strain TM7x is the first cultivated member of the Saccharibacteria and the candidate phyla radiation (CPR). It was discovered to be ultrasmall in cell size with a highly reduced genome that establishes an obligate epibiotic relationship with its host bacterium. The CPR is a large, monophyletic radiation of bacteria with reduced genomes that includes Saccharibacteria. The vast majority of the CPR have yet to be cultivated, and our insights into these unique organisms to date have been derived from only a few Saccharibacteria species. Being obligate parasites, it is unknown how these ultrasmall Saccharibacteria, which are missing many de novo biosynthetic pathways, are maintained at a high prevalence within the human microbiome as well as in the environment.

Project description:Corals rely on a symbiosis with dinoflagellate algae (Symbiodinium spp.) to thrive in nutrient poor tropical oceans. However, the coral-algal symbiosis can break down during bleaching events, potentially leading to coral death. While genome-wide expression studies have shown the genes associated with the breakdown of this partnership, the full conglomerate of genes responsible for the establishment and maintenance of a healthy symbiosis remains unknown. Results from previous studies suggested little transcriptomic change associated with the establishment of symbiosis. In order to elucidate the transcriptomic response of the coral host in the presence of its associated symbiont, we utilized a comparative framework. Post-metamorphic aposymbiotic coral polyps of Orbicella faveolata were compared to symbiotic coral polyps 9 days after metamorphosis and the subsequent differential gene expression between control and treatment was quantified using cDNA microarray technology. Coral polyps exhibited differential expression of genes associated with nutrient metabolism and development, providing insight into pathways turned as a result of symbiosis driving early polyp growth. Furthermore, genes associated with lysosomal fusion were also upregulated, suggesting host regulation of symbiont densities soon after infection.

Project description:Background: The molecular machinery underpinning the establishment of this relationship is not well understood. This is especially true of the symbiont side, as previous attempts to understand the interaction between coral larvae and Symbiodiniaceae have focused nearly exclusively on the host Results: In the current study, we utilised dual RNA-seq approach to study both symbiont and coral transcriptomes during symbiosis establishment. The transcriptomic response of C. goreaui to the symbiotic state was complex, the most obvious feature of which was extensive and generalized downregulation of gene expression. Included in this “symbiosis-derived transcriptional repression” were a range of stress response and immune-related genes. In contrast, a range of genes implicated in metabolism were upregulated in the symbiotic state. Consistent with previous ecological studies, this transcriptomic response of C. goreaui suggests that active translocation of metabolites to the host may begin early in the colonization process, and thus that the mutualistic relationship is established at the larval stage. The coral data imply the involvement of some SCRiP family members in the colonisation process and support the hypothesis that immune-suppression and arrest of phagosome maturation play important roles during the establishment of compatible symbioses. Conclusions: This study provides novel insights into the transcriptomic remodelling that occurs in C. goreaui during transition to a symbiotic lifestyle, with important implications for understanding the establishment of symbiosis between corals and their dinoflagellate partners.
