Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria That Produce Exopolymers Thrive in the Calcifying Zone of a Hypersaline Cyanobacterial Mat
Abstract
Calcifying microbial mats in hypersaline environments are important model systems for the study of the earliest ecosystems on Earth that started to appear more than three billion years ago and have been preserved in the fossil record as laminated lithified structures known as stromatolites. It is believed that sulfate-reducing bacteria play a pivotal role in the lithification process by increasing the saturation index of calcium minerals within the mat. Strain L21-Syr-ABT was isolated from anoxic samples of a several centimeters-thick microbialite-forming cyanobacterial mat of a hypersaline lake on the Kiritimati Atoll (Kiribati, Central Pacific). The novel isolate was assigned to the family Desulfovibrionaceae within the Deltaproteobacteria. Available 16S rRNA-based population surveys obtained from discrete layers of the mat indicate that the occurrence of a species-level clade represented by strain L21-Syr-ABT is restricted to a specific layer of the suboxic zone, which is characterized by the presence of aragonitic spherulites. To elucidate a possible function of this sulfate-reducing bacterium in the mineral formation within the mat a comprehensive phenotypic characterization was combined with the results of a comparative genome analysis. Among the determined traits of strain L21-Syr-ABT, several features were identified that could play a role in the precipitation of calciummore »

Among the determined traits of strain L21-Syr-ABT, several features were identified that could play a role in the precipitation of calcium carbonate: (i) the potential deacetylation of polysaccharides and consumption of substrates such as lactate and sulfate could mobilize free calcium; (ii) under conditions that favor the utilization of formate and hydrogen, the alkalinity engine within the mat is stimulated, thereby increasing the availability of carbonate; (iii) the production of extracellular polysaccharides could provide nucleation sites for calcium mineralization. In addition, our data suggest the proposal of the novel species and genus Desulfohalovibrio reitneri represented by the type strain L21-Syr-ABT (=DSM 26903T = JCM 18662T).},

FIGURE 1: Phylogenetic tree inferred from 16S rRNA gene sequences showing the placement of strain L21-Syr-ABT within the Desulfovibrionaceae. The tree topology was reconstructed under the maximum-likelihood criterion and rooted using the 16S rRNA gene sequences of Desulfonatronum lacustre (AF418171), Desulfonatronospira thiodismutans (EU296537), Desulfonatronovibrio hydrogenovorans (X99234), Desulfovermiculus halophilus (DQ139408), Desulfohalobiummore » (CP001734), Desulfothermus naphthae (X80922), Desulfonauticus submarinus (FNIN01000014), Desulfoplanes formicivorans (LC017841), Desulfomicrobium baculatum (CP001629), and Desulfobacter postgatei (AGJR02000005) as outgroup (not shown). Accession numbers are given in parentheses. Support of a distinct branching by bootstrap analyses is indicated by symbols. Black dots at a distinct node indicate that bootstrap values of 95% or above (percentages of 1000 resamplings) were obtained with three different reconstruction methods, while gray dots indicate that values of 95% or above were obtained with two reconstruction methods. White dots indicate that bootstrap values of 75% or above were obtained with at least one reconstruction method. In such cases the values of 75% or above are given from left to right for the maximum-likelihood, neighbor-joining and maximum parsimony method. Letters and boxes shaded in different colors indicate distinct clades that were obtained also in trees based on the RpoB protein (Figure 2). Scale bar, 0.10 changes per nucleotide position.
