Project description:Divergent functions of two clades of flavodoxin in diatoms mitigate oxidative stress and iron limitation Thalassiosira pseudonana and 4 open-ocean diatoms were subjected to iron limitation or short-term oxidative stress (hydrogen peroxide). mRNA profiles of T. pseudonana (CCMP1335), Thalassiosira oceanica (CCMP1005), Amphora coffeaeformis (CCMP1405), Chaetoceros sp. (CCMP199), and Cylindrotheca closterium (CCMP340).

Project description:Coastal Antarctic marine ecosystems play an important role in carbon cycling due to their highly productive seasonal phytoplankton blooms. Southern Ocean microbes are primarily limited by light and iron (Fe) and can be co-limited by cobalamin (vitamin B12 ). Micronutrient limitation is a key driver of ecosystem dynamics and influences the composition of blooms, which are often dominated by either diatoms or the haptophyte Phaeocystis antarctica, each with varied impacts on carbon cycling. However, the vitamin requirements and ecophysiology of the keystone species P. antarctica remains poorly characterized. Using cultures, physiological analysis, and comparative ’omics we examined the response of P. antarctica to a matrix of Fe-B12 conditions. We show that P. antarctica is not auxotrophic for B12 , as previously suggested, and report new mechanistic insights of its B12 response in cultures of predominantly solitary and colonial cells. Proteomics coupled with proteogenomics detected a B12 -independent methionine synthase fusion protein (MetE-fusion) that is expressed under vitamin limitation and is interreplaced with the B12 -dependent isoform (MetH) in replete conditions. Database searches returned homologs of the MetE-fusion protein in multiple Phaeocystis species and in a wide range of marine microbes, including other photosynthetic eukaryotes with polymorphic life cycles and also bacterioplankton. Furthermore, MetE-fusion homologs were found to be expressed in metaproteomic and metatranscriptomic field samples in polar and more geographically widespread regions. As climate change impacts micronutrient availability in the coastal Southern Ocean, our finding that P. antarctica has a flexible B12 metabolism has implications for its relative fitness compared to B12 -auxotrophic diatoms.

Project description:Here, we examined the ramifications of between-species diversity by documenting the transcriptional response of three marine diatoms - Thalassiosira pseudonana, Fragilariopsis cylindrus, and Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries - to the onset of nitrate limitation of growth, a common limiting nutrient in the ocean. Less than 5% of orthologous genes, shared across the three diatoms, displayed the same transcriptional responses across species when growth was limited by nitrate availability. Orthologs, such as those involved in nitrogen uptake and assimilation, as well as carbon metabolism, were differently expressed across the three species. The two pennate diatoms, F. cylindrus and P. multiseries, shared 3,839 clusters without orthologs in the genome of the centric diatom T. pseudonana. A majority of these pennate-clustered genes, as well as the non-orthologous genes in each species, had minimal annotation information, but were often significantly differentially expressed under nitrate limitation, indicating their potential importance in the response to nitrogen availability. Despite these variations in the specific transcriptional response of each diatom, overall transcriptional patterns suggested that all three diatoms displayed a common physiological response to nitrate limitation that consisted of a general reduction in carbon fixation and carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolism and an increase in nitrogen recycling.

Project description:Diatoms are eukaryotic microalgae that contain genes from various sources, including bacteria and the secondary endosymbiotic host. Due to this unique combination of genes, diatoms are taxonomically and functionally distinct from other algae and vascular plants and confer novel metabolic capabilities. Based on the genome annotation, we performed a genome-scale metabolic network reconstruction for the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. Due to their endosymbiotic origin, diatoms possess a complex chloroplast structure which complicates the prediction of subcellular protein localization. Based on previous work we implemented a pipeline that exploits a series of bioinformatics tools to predict protein localization. The manually curated reconstructed metabolic network iLB1027_lipid accounts for 1,027 genes associated with 4,456 reactions and 2,172 metabolites distributed across six compartments. To constrain the genome-scale model, we determined the organism specific biomass composition in terms of lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins using Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. Our simulations indicate the presence of a yet unknown glutamine-ornithine shunt that could be used to transfer reducing equivalents generated by photosynthesis to the mitochondria. The model reflects the known biochemical composition of P. tricornutum in defined culture conditions and enables metabolic engineering strategies to improve the use of P. tricornutum for biotechnological applications.

Project description:The Antarctic krill provides central ecosystems services to the Southern Ocean grazing on autotroph and heterotoph diet and constituting the dominant food source for higher trophic levels. Moreover, E. superba's extensive equipment with biomacromolecule hydrolysing enzymes represents a largely untapped resource for applied purposes. The proteome compendium of krill provides a valuable basis for future studies on krill biology (e.g., metabolism, development, migration behaviour), for krill's contribution to organic matter turnover in the Southern Ocean, as well as for multilevel biotechnological prospecting.
