Project description:To effectively monitor microbial populations in acidic environments and bioleaching systems, a comprehensive 50-mer-based oligonucleotide microarray was developed based on most of the known genes associated with the acidophiles. This array contained 1,072 probes in which there were 571 related to 16S rRNA and 501 related to functional genes. Acid mine drainage (AMD) presents numerous problems to the aquatic life and surrounding ecosystems. However, little is known about the geographic distribution, diversity, composition, structure and function of AMD microbial communities. In this study, we analyzed the geographic distribution of AMD microbial communities from twenty sites using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of 16S rRNA genes, and the results showed that AMD microbial communities were geographically distributed and had high variations among different sites. Then an AMD-specific microarray was used to further analyze nine AMD microbial communities, and showed that those nine AMD microbial communities had high variations measured by the number of detected genes, overlapping genes between samples, unique genes, and diversity indices. Statistical analyses indicated that the concentrations of Fe, S, Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu and pH had strong impacts on both phylogenetic and functional diversity, composition, and structure of AMD microbial communities. This study provides insights into our understanding of the geographic distribution, diversity, composition, structure and functional potential of AMD microbial communities and key environmental factors shaping them. This study investigated the geographic distribution of Acid Mine Drainages microbial communities using a 16S rRNA gene-based RFLP method and the diversity, composition and structure of AMD microbial communities phylogenetically and functionally using an AMD-specific microarray which contained 1,072 probes ( 571 related to 16S rRNA and 501 related to functional genes). The functional genes in the microarray were involved in carbon metabolism (158), nitrogen metabolism (72), sulfur metabolism (39), iron metabolism (68), DNA replication and repair (97), metal-resistance (27), membrane-relate gene (16), transposon (13) and IST sequence (11).

Project description:Samples of oil and production water were collected from five wells of the Qinghai Oilfield, China, and subjected to GeoChip hybridization experiments for microbial functional diversity profiling. Unexpectedly, a remarkable microbial diversity in oil samples, which was higher than that in the corresponding water samples, was observed, thus challenging previously believed assumptions about the microbial diversity in this ecosystem. Hierarchical clustering separated oil and water samples, thereby indicating distinct functional structures in the samples. Genes involved in the degradation of hydrocarbons, organic remediation, stress response, and carbon cycling were significantly abundant in crude oil, which is consistent with their important roles in residing in oil. Association analysis with environmental variables suggested that oil components comprising aromatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic hydrocarbons, and a polar fraction with nitrogen-, sulfur-, and oxygen-containing compounds were mainly influential on the structure of the microbial community. Furthermore, a comparison of microbial communities in oil samples indicated that the structures were depth/temperature-dependent. To our knowledge, this is the first thorough study to profile microbial functional diversity in crude oil samples. From the Qinghai Oilfield located in the Tibetan Plateau, northwest China, oil production mixtures were taken from four oil production wells (No. 813, 516, 48 and 27) and one injection well (No. 517) in the Yue-II block. The floating oil and water phases of the production mixtures were separated overnight by gravitational separation. Subsequently, the microbial community and the characteristics of the water solution (W813, W516, W48, and W27) and floating crude oil (O813, O516, O48, and O27) samples were analyzed. A similar analysis was performed with the injection water solution (W517).

Project description:The unicellular microalga Dunaliella salina is one of the halotolerant and cell wall-less green microalgae in Dunaliella genus. The ability of halotolerance in Dunaliella is attributed to the accumulation of glycerol. Both sugar made by photosynthesis and starch serve as carbon sources for glycerol biosynthesis. Quantitative PCR-based analyses concluded no apparent transcriptional regulation of glycerol, carbon fixation, and starch metabolisms upon salinity stresses. To examine whether or not transcriptional regulation is involved at the transcriptomic level, we assembled a de novo deep sequencing transcriptome. By using a pathway-based approach, we show that low- and high-salt (i.e., 0.5M versus 2M NaCl) adapted cells share a common transcriptomic profile and that subsets of ESTs associated with energy metabolisms are less affected upon salinity stress. We find that enzymes involved in glycerol, carbon fixation, and starch metabolisms are encoded by multiple EST isoforms. We show that EST isoforms encoding dihydroacetone reductase in glycerol metabolism, phosphoglycerate kinase in carbon fixation, and beta-amylase and fructobiphosphate aldolase in starch metabolism display a correlated transcriptional level change to the alteration of glycerol and starch contents upon salinity stresses. Taken together, our results demonstrate that some enzymes involved in glycerol, carbon fixation, and starch metabolisms are regulated at the transcriptional level upon salinity stresses. Furthermore, our analyses indicate that energy metabolisms are not drastically affected upon salinity stresses, consistent with its ability to adapt to a wide range of salinities.

Project description:Starch synthesis is an essential feature for crops, but its regulatory mechanism has been largely restricted to transcription factors. Starch synthesis parallels the endosperm development in maize. we obtained transcriptome, small RNAome and DNA methylome data from the multiple developing stages of endosperms, as well as kernel and leaf, via applying RNA-seq, sRNA-seq and BS-seq technologies. We demonstrated that genome-wide gene expression makes a sharp transition at the point when starch accumulation speeds between DAP 10-13, while the enriched up-regulation of starch and sucrose metabolism genes occurs earlier at DAP 9-10. Expression pattern analysis establishes a comprehensive network between starch synthesis genes and transcription factors. MiRNAs negatively regulating TF expression were extensively downregulated during maize endosperm development. We showed that TF ZmMYB33 and ZmMYB65 promotes the transcription of the GUS reporter under the control of Wx and Sbe2b/Bt2 gene promoters containing their binding motifs, respectively. We further showed that the abundantly expressed miR159k-3p negatively regulate the expression of these two transcription factors, suggesting that miRNAs are important regulators of starch synthesis. In addition, we showed that both starch synthesis genes and miRNAs are globally repressed by DNA methylation, while transcription factors are not. Taken together, the presented results establish the regulatory functions of miRNAs and DNA methylation in starch synthesis, and indicates DNA methylation as the master switch.

Project description:Consumption of resistant starch (RS) has been associated with various intestinal health benefits, but knowledge on its effects on global gene expression in the colon is limited. The main objective of the current study was to identify genes affected by RS in the proximal colon to infer which biologic pathways were modulated. Ten 17-wk-old male pigs, fitted with a cannula in the proximal colon for repeated collection of tissue biopsy samples and luminal content, were fed a digestible starch (DS) diet or a diet high in RS (34%) for 2 consecutive periods of 14 d in a crossover design. Analysis of the colonic transcriptome profiles revealed that, upon RS feeding, oxidative metabolic pathways, such as the tricarboxylic acid cycle and β-oxidation, were induced, whereas many immune response pathways, including adaptive and innate immune system, as well as cell division were suppressed. The nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARG) was identified as a potential key upstream regulator. RS significantly (P < 0.05) increased the relative abundance of several butyrate-producing microbial groups, including the butyrate producers Faecalibacterium prausnitzii and Megasphaera elsdenii, and reduced the abundance of potentially pathogenic members of the genus Leptospira and the phylum Proteobacteria. Concentrations in carotid plasma of the 3 main short-chain fatty acids acetate, propionate, and butyrate were significantly higher with RS consumption compared with DS consumption. Overall, this study provides novel insights on effects of RS in proximal colon and contributes to our understanding of a healthy diet. Ten pigs were fitted with a cannula in the proximal colon for repeated collection of tissue biopsies, and were fed a digestible starch or a resistant starch diet for two consecutive periods of 14 days in a crossover design. After each intervention period a colonic biopsy was taken and subjected to gene expression profiling.
