Project description:Background. Bacteria of the Candidate Phyla Radiation (CPR), constituting about 25% of the bacterial biodiversity, are characterized by small cell size and patchy genomes without complete key metabolic pathways suggesting symbiotic life styles. Gracilibacteria (BD1-5) are part of the CPR branch, they possess alternate coded genomes and have two cultivated members that were shown to be microbial predators. However, besides genomic sampling, little is known about the lifestyle of Gracilibacteria, their temporal dynamics, and activity in natural ecosystems, and particularly groundwater where they have initially been genomically resolved. The current study was set out with the aim of investigating the metaproteogenome of Gracilibacteria as a function of time in the cold-water geyser Wallender Born in the Volcanic Eifel region in Germany, to estimate their activity in situ and discern expressed genes involved in their lifestyle. Results. We coupled genome-resolved metagenomics and metaproteomics to investigate a microbial community enriched in Gracilibacteria across a 12-day time-series. Groundwater was collected and sequentially filtered onto 0.2-μm and 0.1-μm filters to fraction CPR and other bacteria. Based on 670 Gbps of metagenomic data, 1129 different ribosomal protein S3 marker genes and 751 high-quality genomes (123 population genomes after dereplication), we identified dominant bacteria belonging to Galionellales and Gracilibacteria along with keystone microbes, low in genomic abundance but substantially contributing to proteomic abundance. Seven high-quality Gracilibacteria genomes showed typical limitations in their central metabolism but no co-occurrence to potential hosts. Their genomes encoded for a high number of proteins related to a predatory lifestyle, whose expression was detected in the proteome and included subunits related to type IV and type II secretion systems, as well as features related to cell-cell interactions and cell motility. Conclusion. We present a highly resolved analysis coupling metagenomics to metaproteomics for elucidating microbial dynamics of Gracilibacteria in groundwater. We posit that Gracilibacteria are successful microbial predators in this ecosystem potentially aiding in population control of this highly disturbed microbial community from the deep biosphere.
