Project description:Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is a facultative anaerobe that grows by respiration using a variety of electron acceptors. This organism serves as a model to study how bacteria thrive in redox-stratified environments. A glucose-utilizing engineered derivative of MR-1 has been reported to be unable to grow in glucose minimal medium (GMM) in the absence of electron acceptors, despite this strain having a complete set of genes for reconstructing glucose to lactate fermentative pathways. To gain insights into why MR-1 is incapable of fermentative growth, this study examined a hypothesis that this strain is programmed to repress the expression of some carbon metabolic genes in the absence of electron acceptors. Comparative transcriptomic analyses of the MR-1 derivative were conducted in the presence and absence of fumarate as an electron acceptor, and these found that the expression of many genes involved in carbon metabolism required for cell growth, including several tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle genes, was significantly downregulated in the absence of fumarate. This finding suggests a possibility that MR-1 is unable to grow fermentatively on glucose in minimal media owing to the shortage of nutrients essential for cell growth, such as amino acids. This idea was demonstrated in subsequent experiments that showed that the MR-1 derivative fermentatively grows in GMM containing tryptone or a defined mixture of amino acids. We suggest that gene regulatory circuits in MR-1 are tuned to minimize energy consumption under electron acceptor-depleted conditions, and that this results in defective fermentative growth in minimal media. IMPORTANCE It is an enigma why S. oneidensis MR-1 is incapable of fermentative growth despite having complete sets of genes for reconstructing fermentative pathways. Understanding the molecular mechanisms behind this defect will facilitate the development of novel fermentation technologies for the production of value-added chemicals from biomass feedstocks, such as electro-fermentation. The information provided in this study will also improve our understanding of the ecological strategies of bacteria living in redox-stratified environments.

Project description:Cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) phosphodiesterase (CPD) is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of cAMP, a signaling molecule affecting diverse cellular and metabolic processes in bacteria. Some CPDs are also known to function in cAMP-independent manners, while their physiological roles remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated physiological roles of CPD in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, a model environmental bacterium, and report that CPD is involved in amino-acid metabolism. We found that a CPD-deficient mutant of MR-1 (ΔcpdA) showed decreased expression of genes for the synthesis of methionine, S-adenosylmethionine, and histidine and required these three compounds to grow in minimal media. Interestingly, deletion of adenylate cyclases in ΔcpdA did not restore the ability to grow in minimal media, indicating that the amino acid requirements were not due to the accumulation of cAMP. These results suggest that CPD is involved in the regulation of amino acid metabolism in MR-1 in a cAMP-independent manner.

Project description:The sumitted data compares gene expression profile of Shewnaella oneidensis MR-1 on two different sets of media conditions (nutritionally rich LB medium and Lactate minimal medium) To explore the effect of various growth phases in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1, the genome-wide transcriptome profiles growth in two sets media was compared to each other. Strain was grown in chemostat at 20% O2 in batch culture. Samples were collected in duplicate from both experiments.
