An Escherichia coli Nitrogen Starvation Response Is Important for Mutualistic Coexistence with Rhodopseudomonas palustris

Journal Article McCully, Alexandra L. ; Behringer, Megan G. ; Gliessman, Jennifer R. ; ... - Applied and Environmental Microbiology

Microbial mutualistic cross-feeding interactions are ubiquitous and can drive important community functions. Engaging in cross-feeding undoubtedly affects the physiology and metabolism of individual species involved. However, the nature in which an individual species' physiology is influenced by cross-feeding and the importance of those physiological changes for the mutualism have received little attention. We previously developed a genetically tractable coculture to study bacterial mutualisms. The coculture consists of fermentative Escherichia coli and phototrophic Rhodopseudomonas palustris. In this coculture, E. coli anaerobically ferments sugars into excreted organic acids as a carbon source for R. palustris. In return, a genetically engineered R. palustrismore »« less

Recipient-Biased Competition for an Intracellularly Generated Cross-Fed Nutrient Is Required for Coexistence of Microbial Mutualists

Journal Article McCully, Alexandra L. ; LaSarre, Breah ; McKinlay, James B. ; ... - mBio (Online)

ABSTRACT Many mutualistic microbial relationships are based on nutrient cross-feeding. Traditionally, cross-feeding is viewed as being unidirectional, from the producer to the recipient. This is likely true when a producer’s waste, such as a fermentation product, has value only for a recipient. However, in some cases the cross-fed nutrient holds value for both the producer and the recipient. In such cases, there is potential for nutrient reacquisition by producer cells in a population, leading to competition against recipients. Here, we investigated the consequences of interpartner competition for cross-fed nutrients on mutualism dynamics by using an anaerobic coculture pairing fermentative Escherichiamore »« less

Exometabolomics Assisted Design and Validation of Synthetic Obligate Mutualism

Journal Article Kosina, Suzanne M. ; Danielewicz, Megan A. ; Mohammed, Mujahid ; ... - ACS Synthetic Biology

Synthetic microbial ecology has the potential to enhance the productivity and resiliency of biotechnology processes compared to approaches using single isolates. Engineering microbial consortia is challenging; however, one approach that has attracted significant attention is the creation of synthetic obligate mutualism using auxotrophic mutants that depend on each other for exchange or cross-feeding of metabolites. In this paper, we describe the integration of mutant library fitness profiling with mass spectrometry based exometabolomics as a method for constructing synthetic mutualism based on cross-feeding. Two industrially important species lacking known ecological interactions, Zymomonas mobilis and Escherichia coli, were selected as the testmore »« less

Metabolic effects of vitamin B12 on physiology, stress resistance, growth rate and biomass productivity of Cyanobacterium stanieri planktonic and biofilm cultures

Journal Article Bohutskyi, Pavlo ; McClure, Ryan S. ; Hill, Eric A. ; ... - mSystems

Although synthesized only by bacteria and archaea, cobalamin (vitamin B12) is essential for virtually all living cells. One major function is its role in methionine synthesis, as a co-factor in for the B12-dependent methionine synthase MetH. However, large number of microbes avoid requirements for B12 by encoding cobalamin-independent enzymes, such as the B12-independent methionine synthase MetE. Ineterestingly, many such microbes retain transporters for exogenous B12, produced by neighboring microbes. We hypothesise that selection for retention of B12 transport suggests preservation of unrevealed but critical roles for cobalamin in photoautotroph fitness. To identify the impacts of B12 on photoautorophic metabolism, wemore »« less
