Project description:Colonization of deep-sea hydrothermal vents by invertebrates was made efficient through their adaptation to a symbiotic lifestyle with chemosynthetic bacteria, the primary producers of these ecosystems. Anatomical adaptations such as the establishment of specialized cells or organs have been evidenced in numerous deep-sea invertebrates. However, very few studies detailed global inter-dependencies between host and symbionts in these ecosystems. In this study, we proposed to describe, using a proteo-transcriptomic approach, the effects of symbionts on the deep-sea mussel Bathymodiolus azoricus’ molecular biology. We induced an in situ depletion of symbionts and compared the proteo-transcriptome of the gills of mussels in three conditions: symbiotic mussels (natural population), symbiont-depleted mussels and aposymbiotic mussels

Project description:The deep marine subsurface is one of the largest unexplored biospheres on Earth, where members of the phylum Chloroflexi are abundant and globally distributed. However, the deep-sea Chloroflexi have remained elusive to cultivation, hampering a more thorough understanding of their metabolisms. In this work, we have successfully isolated a representative of the phylum Chloroflexi, designated strain ZRK33, from deep-sea cold seep sediments. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA genes, genomes, RpoB and EF-tu proteins indicated that strain ZRK33 represents a novel class within the phylum Chloroflexi, designated Sulfochloroflexia. We present a detailed description of the phenotypic traits, complete genome sequence and central metabolisms of the novel strain ZRK33. Notably, sulfate and thiosulfate could significantly promote the growth of the new isolate, possibly through accelerating the hydrolysis and uptake of saccharides. Thus, this result reveals that strain ZRK33 may play a crucial part in sulfur cycling in the deep-sea environments. Moreover, the putative genes associated with assimilatory and dissimilatory sulfate reduction are broadly distributed in the genomes of 27 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from deep-sea cold seep and hydrothermal vents sediments. Together, we propose that the deep marine subsurface Chloroflexi play key roles in sulfur cycling for the first time. This may concomitantly suggest an unsuspected availability of sulfur-containing compounds to allow for the high abundance of Chloroflexi in the deep sea.

Project description:Recent studies have unveiled the deep sea as a rich biosphere, populated by species descended from shallow-water ancestors post-mass extinctions. Research on genomic evolution and microbial symbiosis has shed light on how these species thrive in extreme deep-sea conditions. However, early adaptation stages, particularly the roles of conserved genes and symbiotic microbes, remain inadequately understood. This study examined transcriptomic and microbiome changes in shallow-water mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to deep-sea conditions at the Site-F cold seep in the South China Sea. Results reveal complex gene expression adjustments in stress response, immune defense, homeostasis, and energy metabolism pathways during adaptation. After 10 days of deep-sea exposure, shallow-water mussels and their microbial communities closely resembled those of native deep-sea mussels, demonstrating host and microbiome convergence in response to adaptive shifts. Notably, methanotrophic bacteria, key symbionts in native deep-sea mussels, emerged as a dominant group in the exposed mussels. Host genes involved in immune recognition and endocytosis correlated significantly with the abundance of these bacteria. Overall, our analyses provide insights into adaptive transcriptional regulation and microbiome dynamics of mussels in deep-sea environments, highlighting the roles of conserved genes and microbial community shifts in adapting to extreme environments.

Project description:Bacteria isolated from diverse environments were found to sense blue light to regulate their biological functions. However, this ability of deep-sea bacteria has been studied rarely. In this study, we found serendipitously that blue light stimulated excess zero-valent sulfur (ZVS) production of E. flavus 21-3, which was isolated from the deep-sea cold seep and possessed a novel thiosulfate oxidation pathway. Its ZVS production responding to the blue light was mediated by a light-oxygen-voltage histidine kinase (LOV-1477), a diguanylate cyclase (DGC-2902), a PilZ protein (mPilZ-1753) and the key thiosulfate dehydrogenase (TsdA) in its thiosulfate oxidation pathway. Subsequently, the thiosulfohydrolase (SoxB-277) was found working with another SoxB (SoxB-285) and being as substitute for each other to generate ZVS. This study provided an example of deep-sea bacteria sensing blue light to regulate thiosulfate oxidation. Deep-sea blue light potentially helped these blue-light-sensing bacteria adapt harsh conditions by diversifying their biological processes.

Project description:The adaptor protein Schnurri-3 (SHN3) is an attractive target for osteoporosis, fractures, and osteogenesis imperfecta, as short-term inhibition of SHN3 resulted in a high–bone mass due to augmented osteoblasts activity. However, there have been no reports of natural small molecules targeting SHN3 inhibition. Here, we report a screening strategy for the discovery of marine compounds that promoted osteoblast differentiation by targeting silencing SHN3. One lead quinolinone alkaloid named viridicatol (VDC), isolated from deep-sea-derived fungus, strongly promoted osteogenic differentiation and angiogenesis. Mechanistically, VDC promotes osteogenic activity and H-type angiogenesis through the SHN3/SLIT3 signaling pathway, ultimately achieving treatment for osteoporosis and fracture repair. These results firstly develop a promising marine natural product, VDC, that targets the SHN3/SLIT3 pathway for the treatment of osteoporosis and fractures, highlighting its translational potential in clinical applications.
