Peterhoff*, H. Zellner, R. Merkl, R. Sterner, P. Bab<strong>in</strong>gerUniversity of Regensburg, Biophysics and physical Biochemistry,Regensburg, GermanyThe bacterial PcrB prote<strong>in</strong>s show about 35% sequence identity to thearchaeal geranylgeranylglyceryl phosphate synthases (GGGPS). PcrB hasrecently been shown to be a heptaprenylglyceryl phosphate synthase,which catalyzes the formation of an ether bond between sn-glycerol-1-phosphate (G1P) and heptaprenyl pyrophosphate (HepPP) [1-2] . The crystalstructure of Bacillus subtilis PcrB reveals a G1P-b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g site as well as along hydrophobic groove similar to the geranylgeranyl pyrophosphateb<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g site of Archaeoglobus fulgidus GGGPS [3-4] . However, the “ruler”limit<strong>in</strong>g the length of the polyprenyl pyrophosphate to 20 C-atoms <strong>in</strong>GGGPS is miss<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> PcrB, allow<strong>in</strong>g the b<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g of HepPP which conta<strong>in</strong>s35 C-atoms.Both GGGPS and PcrB form homodimers. The subunit <strong>in</strong>terface has beenunambiguously determ<strong>in</strong>ed for GGGPS, whereas the published contactbetween the two PcrB subunits [3] is implausible due to the relatively smallburied surface area. We therefore decided to identify the native contact<strong>in</strong>terface of PcrB and to study the impact of dimerization for prote<strong>in</strong>stability and substrate specificity. Bio<strong>in</strong>formatic analysis predicted twoalternative <strong>in</strong>terfaces, one of them be<strong>in</strong>g identical to the GGGPS <strong>in</strong>terface.In order to loosen the dimer, we <strong>in</strong>troduced destabiliz<strong>in</strong>g am<strong>in</strong>o acids<strong>in</strong>dividually <strong>in</strong>to the two predicted <strong>in</strong>terfaces. Monomerization wasexclusively observed with mutations <strong>in</strong> the surface area that corresponds tothe GGGPS <strong>in</strong>terface. Furthermore, we <strong>in</strong>corporated the non-naturalam<strong>in</strong>oacid p-azido-L-phenylalan<strong>in</strong>e at specific sites <strong>in</strong>to each potential<strong>in</strong>terface us<strong>in</strong>g the method developed by Schultz and coworkers [5] tocrossl<strong>in</strong>k the protomers. The experiment confirmed that PcrB has the samecontact <strong>in</strong>terface like GGGPS. The stability of the monomerized variantswas not severely affected. However, their substrate specificity was limitedto shorter polyprenyl pyrophosphates (geranyl pyrophosphate, 10 C-atoms). This f<strong>in</strong>d<strong>in</strong>g shows that dimerization of PcrB is a prerequisite tob<strong>in</strong>d and process the native polyprenyl pyrophosphate substrate.[1] H. Guldan, R.

ImhoffGEOMAR | Helmholtz-Zentrum für Ozeanforschung Kiel, Kieler Wirkstoff-Zentrum am GEOMAR, Kiel, GermanyBacteria are an <strong>in</strong>herent part of the physical environment of algae. Algaeare key components of the aquatic environments and are substrates formillions of microorganisms wait<strong>in</strong>g to be discovered. Recent<strong>in</strong>vestigations have shown that bacterial communities associated withalgae are highly specific to their host. Worldwide, representatives ofseveral new bacterial species and genera have been isolated from algae.We conducted a phylogenetic study based on 16S rRNA gene sequencesavailable <strong>in</strong> GenBank of 101 bacterial species (only type stra<strong>in</strong>s) whichhave been described as new species and have been derived from eukaryoticmacro- and micro-algal sources. We found a clear dom<strong>in</strong>ance of 6 majorbacterial l<strong>in</strong>eages. The major l<strong>in</strong>eage corresponded to Bacteroidetes with42 newly described bacterial species, followed by Proteobacteria(<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g Alpha- and Gammaproteobacteria) with 36 species. Firmicutes,Act<strong>in</strong>obacteria, Verrucomicrobia and Planctomycetes contributed to alesser extent. Based on the <strong>in</strong>formation of the species descriptions, 32% ofall new bacterial species were able to decompose macroalgalpolysaccharides, especially the members of Bacteroidetes andGammaproteobacteria. On the other hand, most of the bacteria describedfrom mar<strong>in</strong>e microalgae grouped <strong>in</strong>to the Alphaproteobacteria, <strong>in</strong>dicat<strong>in</strong>gthat some members of this group are well adapted to live <strong>in</strong> closeassociation with phytoplankton. We confirmed algae as a dist<strong>in</strong>ct sourcefor new bacterial taxa. Although such associations can be random orspecific, they could be expla<strong>in</strong>ed by evolutionary adaptations throughmetabolic pathways, niche specificity or mutualistic relationships. Thoseparameters might play an important role <strong>in</strong> algae-bacteria relationships <strong>in</strong>nature.OTP049Novel Octaheme Cytochromes c enzymesB. Hermann* 1 , F. Kemper 1 , M.

E<strong>in</strong>sle 11 Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg, Institut for Organische Chemie undBiochemie, Freiburg, Germany2 TU Darmstadt, Biologie, Darmstadt, GermanyMultiheme Cytochromes c (MCC) are a diverse family of electron carriersand redox enzymes that play a central role <strong>in</strong> several metabolic pathways.Some MCC enzymes have been structurally characterized <strong>in</strong> the past andwere found to conta<strong>in</strong> conserved heme-pack<strong>in</strong>g motifs, although theirprimary structures are largely unrelated [1,2]. Interest<strong>in</strong>gly, purified MCCsare able to convert more than one substrate. However these activities haveto be <strong>in</strong>terpreted carefully for the fact that not every measured <strong>in</strong> vitroactivity has a compulsory physiological role.The classical enzyme display<strong>in</strong>g a wide substrate versatility is NrfA, anammonium-produc<strong>in</strong>g pentaheme cytochrome c nitrite reductase, thatcatalyses the six-electron reduction of nitrite to ammonia as the keyreaction <strong>in</strong> respiratory nitrite ammonification. It is also able to converthydroxylam<strong>in</strong>e, nitric oxide, and sulfite [3,4]. Other already characterizedMCCs belong to the family of Octaheme Cytochomes C (OCC), likeoctaheme cytochrome c nitrite reductase (Onr) [5], octaheme tetrathionatereductase (Otr)[6] or the hydroxylam<strong>in</strong>e oxidoreductase (HAO) [7]. Thelatter is so far the only OCC known to function as an oxidase. This isma<strong>in</strong>ly due to an unusual cross-l<strong>in</strong>k of a tyros<strong>in</strong>e with a heme meso carbonof the active-site heme.Another so far uncharacterized class of OCC are the HAO, found <strong>in</strong> someEpsilonproteobacteria, such as some Campylobacter species [8]. Theseorganisms lack a NrfA homologue and yet are reported as nitriteammonifiers. Although the enzymes clearly are related to ’classical’ HAO,the active-site tyros<strong>in</strong>e residue is absent <strong>in</strong> HAO. It has been hypothesizedthat this enzyme reduces nitrite to hydroxylam<strong>in</strong>e but it might just as wellperform nitrite reduction to ammonium, thereby functionally replac<strong>in</strong>gNrfA.To broaden our knowledge of MCCs we focus on the structural propertiesthat lead to substrate versatility of MCCs. Therefore we use highresolutionX-ray crystallography <strong>in</strong> comb<strong>in</strong>ation with <strong>in</strong> vitro activityassays.As a first step we were able to purify two octaheme HAO, fromCampylobacter curvus and Campylobacter concisus and observed nitritereductase activity which is <strong>in</strong>deed lower than NrfA activity but still highenough to play a physiological role.[1] E<strong>in</strong>sle O. et al., Nature, 1999, 400, 476-480[2] Mowat, C.G. et al., Dalton Trans, 2005, 7, 3381-3389[3] Rudolf, M. et al., Biochem.

Wasmund*, C. Algora, J. Müller, L. AdrianHelmholtz Centre for Environmental Research, Isotope Biogeochemistry,Leipzig, GermanyBacteria of the phylum Chloroflexi appear to be widely distributed andsometimes abundant <strong>in</strong> the mar<strong>in</strong>e subsurface. Most subsurfaceChloroflexi form a dist<strong>in</strong>ct ‘class level’ clade that are affiliated withorganohalide-respir<strong>in</strong>g Dehalococcoides stra<strong>in</strong>s. Despite the apparentglobal ubiquity of these ‘Dehalococcoides-related Chloroflexi’ (DRC),little is known about their specific distributions and/or functionalproperties. In this research, specific PCR primers target<strong>in</strong>g 16S rRNAgenes of the DRC were designed and employed to study the distributionsof DRC <strong>in</strong> various subsurface environments. The assay proved highlyspecific and enabled the detection of a diverse range of DRC, oftenreveal<strong>in</strong>g the co-existence of diverse DRC phylotypes even with<strong>in</strong> s<strong>in</strong>glesubsurface samples. Quantification of DRC <strong>in</strong> mar<strong>in</strong>e sediment cores froma collection of globally dispersed locations by real-time PCR suggeststhese bacteria are seem<strong>in</strong>gly ubiquitous and establish highest numbers <strong>in</strong>the shallow subsurface (i.e., <strong>in</strong> the upper meters), yet survive and persistwith burial. Pyrosequenc<strong>in</strong>g of DRC through various mar<strong>in</strong>e sedimentcores enabled high coverage of DRC diversity and therefore enabledpatterns of diversity through depth to be clearly dist<strong>in</strong>guished. Thisapproach also revealed shifts <strong>in</strong> sub-groups of DRC through depth andsuggested different sub-groups with<strong>in</strong> the DRC favor differentbiogeochemical conditions, and therefore these sub-groups likely utilizedifferent modes of metabolism.OTP052Bacteria from the Baltic Sea <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> the degradation ofterrestrial DOCJ. Simon*, J. OvermannLeibniz Institute DSMZ - German Collection of Microorganisms and CellCultures, Braunschweig, Department of Microbial Ecology and DiversityResearch, Braunschweig, GermanyPermafrost soils of the northern hemisphere store large amounts ofterrigenous dissolved organic carbon (tDOC). Climate change is expectedto result <strong>in</strong> a significantly <strong>in</strong>creased transport of tDOC to mar<strong>in</strong>e habitats.In order to assess the role of <strong>in</strong>creased tDOC mobilization for the globalcarbon budgets, the potential of tDOC degradation <strong>in</strong> the mar<strong>in</strong>eenvironment needs to be quantified. In the current study, key bacterialspecies <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> the degradation of tDOC <strong>in</strong> the Baltic Sea werestudied. Because of its unique sal<strong>in</strong>ity gradient that ranges from nearlylimnic to mar<strong>in</strong>e conditions and s<strong>in</strong>ce it has been shown that the bacterialcommunity changes consistently along this sal<strong>in</strong>ity gradient, the Baltic Searepresents a suitable model system to study tDOC degradation underdifferent environmental conditions. Incubation experiments wereperformed <strong>in</strong> which Baltic Sea water was supplemented with fresh tDOCorig<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g from the River Kalix (next to Överkalix, North Sweden). Highthroughput cultivation was used to recover relevant bacterial isolatesthrough the MultiDrop technique dur<strong>in</strong>g different stages of tDOCdegradation. Six different growth media were designed that conta<strong>in</strong> typicalconstituents of tDOC <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g a polymer mix and soluble and <strong>in</strong>solublehumic analogs. Changes <strong>in</strong> culturability were quantified through the mostprobable number technique. Community composition of culturablebacteria was assessed by DGGE-f<strong>in</strong>gerpr<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g of 16S rRNA genes. Firstresults reveal specific changes <strong>in</strong> the community composition of bacteriathat lead to the dom<strong>in</strong>ance of different bacteria dur<strong>in</strong>g the different stagesof the tDOC degradation.OTP053Acetone activation by strictly anaerobic bacteriaO.B. Gutiérrez Acosta*, B. Sch<strong>in</strong>kKonstanz university, Biology, Konstanz, GermanyDegradation of acetone by strictly anaerobic bacteria is be<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>vestigatedwith the sulfate-reduc<strong>in</strong>g bacterium Desulfococcus biacutus. An <strong>in</strong>itialATP-dependent carboxylation reaction has been proposed <strong>in</strong> the activationof acetone for aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria. In both types ofbacteria acetone is carboxylated to form acetoacetate as an <strong>in</strong>termediate.The mechanism proposed for those bacteria requires the <strong>in</strong>vestment of twoATP equivalents for the <strong>in</strong>itial step <strong>in</strong> the activation of acetone. In the caseof sulfate-reduc<strong>in</strong>g bacteria, this carboxylation reaction is less likely tooccur. The extreme energy limitation of the degradation of acetonecoupled to sulfate reduction would not allow the sulfate reducers to apply acarboxylation reaction as the <strong>in</strong>itial step. Therefore, we assumed thatsulfate-reduc<strong>in</strong>g bacteria use a different strategy <strong>in</strong> the activation ofacetone which is less energy expensive. A carbonylation reaction washypothesized for activation of acetone by D. biacutus. This carbonylationwould lead to 3-hydroxybutyrate or to an aldehyde derivative. Prelim<strong>in</strong>arystudies of the proposed carbonylation suggest that this reaction could takeplace <strong>in</strong> the activation of acetone. The acetone degradation <strong>in</strong> cellsuspension experiments with D. biacutusshowed a sulfate-reduc<strong>in</strong>g activityfaster and higher <strong>in</strong> the presence of CO than <strong>in</strong> the presence of CO 2.Aldehyde dehydrogenase activity was detected specifically <strong>in</strong>duced <strong>in</strong> cellextracts of acetone grown cells. This activity was enhanced by thepresence of ammonium <strong>in</strong> the test. Two dimensional electrophoresis withextracts ofD. biacutus showed different <strong>in</strong>duced prote<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> acetone growncells. MALDI-TOF-MS analysis of one of the acetone <strong>in</strong>duced prote<strong>in</strong>sresulted <strong>in</strong> an unknown prote<strong>in</strong>.OTP054Overexpression and purification of membrane prote<strong>in</strong>s fromGluconobacter oxydansM. Meyer*, U. Deppenmeier, P. SchweigerInstitute for Microbiology and Biotechnology, University of Bonn, AppliedMicrobiology, Bonn, GermanyGluconobacter oxydans is a member of the Gram-negativeAcetobacteraceae that performs rapid <strong>in</strong>complete oxidation of manysugars, sugar acids, polyols and alcohols. This feature has been exploited<strong>in</strong> several biotechnological processes (e.g. production of vitam<strong>in</strong> C and theantidiabetic drug miglitol). The genome sequence of G. oxydans 621H isknown and it was found to conta<strong>in</strong> over 70 uncharacterizedoxidoreductases. For <strong>in</strong>dustrial bioconversions, membrane-bounddehydrogenases are of major importance s<strong>in</strong>ce the products are excreted<strong>in</strong>to the medium to almost quantitative yields. However, theoverexpression and purification of membrane-bound prote<strong>in</strong>s is generallydifficult and time consum<strong>in</strong>g. The membrane-bound glucosedehydrogenase, encoded by gox0265, was expressed from the previouslyconstructed plasmid pBBR1p452 1 <strong>in</strong> G. oxydans hsdR <strong>in</strong> an attempt toimprove the process of <strong>in</strong>tegral membrane prote<strong>in</strong> purification. The vectorpBBR1p452 was constructed for gene expression <strong>in</strong> Gluconobacter spp.and its promoter displayed moderate strength. 1 Additionally, a C-term<strong>in</strong>alStrepTag was <strong>in</strong>corporated <strong>in</strong>to the expression construct. Membranes ofthe overexpression stra<strong>in</strong> had a specific activiy of 15 U/mg with glucose,which was seven-fold higher <strong>in</strong> comparison to the control stra<strong>in</strong>. The rateof oxygen consumption of these membranes was very high (1100 nmol ½O 2 m<strong>in</strong> -1 mg -1 ) and about three-times higher <strong>in</strong> comparison to the control.Glucose dehydrogenase was successfully purified from the membranes bysolubilisation with detergent and subsequent StrepTact<strong>in</strong> aff<strong>in</strong>itychromatography. Purified mGDH had a specific activity of 150 U/mgus<strong>in</strong>g D-glucose as substrate. Lower activities were also found with D-allose (43 % of activity compared to D-glucose), D-xylose (11 % ofactivity compared to D-glucose), D-galactose (7 % of activity compared toD-glucose) and D-gulose (4 % of activity compared to D-glucose). The K Mfor glucose was 3.4 mM and V max was 156 U/mg. These resultsdemonstrate, that the purification of active membrane prote<strong>in</strong>s byStrepTact<strong>in</strong> aff<strong>in</strong>ity chromatography is possible and can be used for thecharacterization of novel dehydrogenases.1 Kallnik, V., Meyer, M., Deppenmeier, U., Schweiger, P.

Many enzymes <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> the complex pathways ofmethanogenesis have been analyzed by heterologous overproduction <strong>in</strong> E.coli. However, for many methanogenic prote<strong>in</strong>s this was not successfuldue to unusual prosthetic groups that will not correctly assemble <strong>in</strong> E. coli.Hence, a method for homologous production of prote<strong>in</strong>s <strong>in</strong> Ms. mazei isdesirable.As a first step towards the production of complex prote<strong>in</strong>s, the simplereporter prote<strong>in</strong> -glucuronidase from E. coli was fused to the <strong>in</strong>duciblepromoter p1687 from Ms. mazei us<strong>in</strong>g the shuttle vector pWM321 [1]. Inthe Ms. mazei genome, the p1687 promoter is located upstream of the genecluster mtt1/ mtb1 that is transcribed dur<strong>in</strong>g growth on trimethylam<strong>in</strong>e butdown-regulated by a factor of 200 when the cells grow on methanol [2].BIOspektrum | Tagungsband <strong>2012</strong>
