Molecular evidence of toxic effect on the biofilm and its matrix

Journal Article Ding, Yuanzhao ; Zhou, Yufan ; Yao, Juan ; ... - The Analyst

The biofilm and its extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) are known to respond to toxic chemicals. Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 wild-type (WT) and a hyper-adhesive mutant CP2-1-S1 (CP) are used as model organisms and Cr(VI) is selected as a toxic chemical in this study. We investigate the following the science questions: 1) what are the chemical differences revealed in molecular mapping between WT and CP; and 2) how WT and CP biofilms respond to a toxic chemical. The System for Analysis at the Liquid Vacuum Interface (SALVI) is employed for in situ chemical imaging of live biofilms using time-of-flight secondary ion massmore »« less

In Situ Molecular Imaging of the Biofilm and Its Matrix

Journal Article Ding, Yuanzhao ; Zhou, Yufan ; Yao, Juan ; ... - Analytical Chemistry

Molecular mapping of live biofilms at submicron resolution presents a grand challenge. Here, we present the first chemical mapping results of biofilm extracellular polymeric sub-stance (EPS) components in biofilms using correlative imaging be-tween super resolution florescence microscopy and liquid time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). Shewanella oneidensis is used as a model organism. Heavy metal anions chro-mate (Cr2O72-) consisting of chromium Cr (VI) was a model envi-ronmental stressor used to treat the biofilms. Of particular interest, biologically relevant water clusters have been first observed in the biofilms.

Global Molecular Characterization of the Chromate Stress Response in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1: Identification of a Putative DNA-Binding Response Regulator and Azoreductase Involved in Cr(VI) Detoxification

Conference Chourey, Karuna ; Thompson, Melissa R ; Brown, Steven D ; ...

Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 is a model environmental organism that possesses diverse respiratory capacities, including the ability to reduce soluble Cr(VI) to sparingly soluble, less toxic Cr(III). Effective bioremediation of Cr-contaminated sites requires knowledge of the molecular mechanisms and regulation of heavy metal resistance and biotransformation by dissimilatory metal-reducing bacteria. Towards this goal, our ERSP-funded work is focused on the identification and functional analysis of genes/proteins comprising the response pathways for chromate detoxification and/or reduction. Previous transcriptomic profiling and whole-cell proteomic analyses implicated the involvement of a functionally undefined DNA-binding response regulator (SO2426) and a putative azoreductase (SO3585) in the chromatemore »« less

Single-Cell Imaging and Spectroscopic Analyses of Cr(VI) Reduction on the Surface of Bacterial Cells

Journal Article Wang, Yuanmin ; Sevinc, Papatya C ; Belchik, Sara M ; ... - Langmuir, 29(3):950-956

We investigate single-cell reduction of toxic Cr(VI) by the dissimilatory metal-reducing bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 (MR-1), an important bioremediation process, using Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Our experiments indicate that the toxic and highly soluble Cr(VI) can be efficiently reduced to the less toxic and non-soluble Cr2O3 nanoparticles by MR-1. Cr2O3 is observed to emerge as nanoparticles adsorbed on the cell surface and its chemical nature is identified by EDX imaging and Raman spectroscopy. Co-localization of Cr2O3 and cytochromes by EDX imaging and Raman spectroscopy suggests a terminal reductase role for MR-1more »« less

Elucidating the Molecular Basis and Regulation of Chromium(VI) Reduction by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 and Resistance to Metal Toxicity Using Integrated Biochemical, Genomic, and Proteomic Approaches

Conference Thompson, Dorothea K ; Brown, Steven D ; Hettich, Robert L ; ...

The mediation of metal reduction by microorganisms has been investigated intensively from physiological and biochemical perspectives; however, little is known about the genetic basis and regulatory mechanisms underlying the ability of certain bacteria to transform or immobilize a wide array of heavy metals contaminating DOE field sites. Chromium(VI), for example, is one of several risk-driving contaminants at DOE sites and has been targeted by the DOE for bioremediation research. The bacterium Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 can potentially be used to immobilize chromium, a toxic and mutagenic metal, by reducing soluble Cr(VI) to the insoluble and less bioavailable form of Cr(III), thusmore »« less
