A novel metalloproteinase virulence factor is involved in B acillus thuringiensis pathogenesis in nematodes and insects - Donghai Peng; Jian Lin; Qiong Huang; Wen Zheng; Guoqiang Liu; Jinshui Zheng; Lei Zhu; Ming Sun (Environmental Microbiology, 2016)
Summary The Gram‐positive soil bacterium B acillus thuringiensis has been developed as the leading microbial insecticide for years. The pathogenesis of B . thuringiensis requires common extracellular factors that depend on the PlcR regulon, which regulates a large number of virulence factors; however, the precise role of many of these proteins is not known. In this study, we describe the complete lifecycle of a nematicidal B . thuringiensis strain in the free living nematode C aenorhabditis elegans using in vitro and in vivo molecular techniques to follow host and bacterial effectors during the infection process. We then focus on the metalloproteinase ColB , a collagenase, which was found highly important for destruction of the intestine thereby facilitates the adaptation and colonization of B . thuringiensis in C . elegans. In vivo green fluorescent protein ( GFP ) reporter‐gene studies showed that ColB expression is highly induced and regulated by the global activator PlcR . Finally, we demonstrated that ColB also takes part in B . thuringiensis virulence in an insect model following injection and oral infection. Indeed, addition of purified ColB accelerates the action of Cry toxin proteins in insects, too . These results give novel insights into host adaptation for B . thuringiensis and other B . cereus group bacteria and highlight the role of collagenase metalloproteases to synergize infection process.

Aim The goals of our study were to assess the population history and genetic structure of the widespread bat H ipposideros armiger , and to evaluate the effect of palaeoclimatic changes and dispersal patterns on this species. Location S outh C hina, mainland S outheast A sia and the S outh H imalayas. Methods We amplified two mitochondrial DNA (mt DNA ) regions (cyt b and D ‐loop) and seven nuclear microsatellite loci (n SSR s) from 216 individuals of H . armiger . To examine the evolutionary history of this species, we constructed maximum likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic trees based on the two mt DNA regions. From the mt DNA and/or n SSR data, we assessed population genetic structure using analysis of molecular variance ( AMOVA ) and median‐joining network and structure analyses. We also estimated demographic history and gene flow using a B ayesian skyline plot and the program I Ma 2. Results Phylogenetic and median‐joining network analyses revealed that H . armiger comprises two distinct mt DNA clades divided into seven subclades. The results of AMOVA suggested strong population genetic structure based on mt DNA , but weak structure based on n SSR s. structure analysis identified three population clusters and also showed weak genetic structure at the nuclear level. Demographic analyses revealed two population expansion events c . 0.62 Ma and c . 0.25 Ma. The basic phylogeographical structure of H . armiger was established by 0.24 Ma. I Ma 2 analysis demonstrated that substantial gene flow has occurred between different regions since then. Additionally, non‐significant population structure and significant gene flow were detected between T aiwan and H ainan island populations and those from mainland C hina. Main conclusions Our results suggest that divergence and population expansion of H . armiger occurred in association with P leistocene climatic changes and that multiple refugia may have existed for this species. Post‐glacial male‐biased dispersal was likely to be the primary contributor to the contemporary genetic structure of H . armiger populations. Gene flow may have contributed greatly to the genetic structure of insular populations and populations from mainland C hina.

Impact of climate changes from M iddle M iocene onwards on evolutionary diversification in E urasia: Insights from the mesobuthid scorpions - Cheng‐Min Shi; Ya‐Jie Ji; Lin Liu; Lei Wang; De‐Xing Zhang (Molecular Ecology, 2013)
The aridification from M iddle M iocene onwards has transformed the A sian interior into an arid environment, and the P leistocene glacial–interglacial oscillations exerted further ecological impact. Therefore, both aridification and glaciation would have considerably influenced the evolution of many mid‐latitude species in temperate A sia. Here, we tested this perspective by a phylogeographic study of the mesobuthid scorpions across temperate A sia using one mitochondrial and three nuclear genes. Concordant mitochondrial and nuclear gene trees were obtained, which are consistent with species tree inferred using a B ayesian approach. The age of the most recent common ancestor ( MRCA ) of all the studied scorpions was estimated to be 12.49 Ma (late M iddle M iocene); M esobuthus eupeus diverged from the clade composing M esobuthus caucasicus and M esobuthus martensii in early L ate M iocene (10.21 Ma); M . martensii diverged from M . caucasicus at 5.53 Ma in L ate M iocene. The estimated MRCA ages of M . martensii and the Chinese lineage of M . eupeus were 2.37 and 0.68 Ma, respectively. C entral A sia was identified as the ancestral area for the lineage leading to M . martensii and M . caucasicus and the C hinese lineage of M . eupeus . The ancestral habitat of the genus M esobuthus is likely to have been characterized by an arid environment; a shift towards more humid habitat occurred in the MRCA of M . martensii and a lineage of M . caucasicus , finally leading to the adaptation of M . martensii to humid environment. Our data strongly support the idea that the stepwise intensified aridifications from M id‐ M iocene onwards drove the diversification of mesobuthid scorpions, and suggest that M . martensii and M . eupeus observed today in C hina originated from an ancestral lineage distributed in C entral A sia. Both the colonization and the ensuing evolution of these species in E ast A sia appear to have been further moulded by Q uaternary glaciations.

Spatial patterns and climate drivers of carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems of China - Gui‐Rui Yu; Xian‐Jin Zhu; Yu‐Ling Fu; Hong‐Lin He; Qiu‐Feng Wang; Xue‐Fa Wen; Xuan‐Ran Li; Lei‐Ming Zhang; Li Zhang; Wen Su; Sheng‐Gong Li; Xiao‐Min Sun; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2013)
Understanding the dynamics and underlying mechanism of carbon exchange between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere is one of the key issues in global change research. In this study, we quantified the carbon fluxes in different terrestrial ecosystems in China, and analyzed their spatial variation and environmental drivers based on the long‐term observation data of China FLUX sites and the published data from other flux sites in China. The results indicate that gross ecosystem productivity ( GEP ), ecosystem respiration ( ER ), and net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) of terrestrial ecosystems in China showed a significantly latitudinal pattern, declining linearly with the increase of latitude. However, GEP , ER , and NEP did not present a clear longitudinal pattern. The carbon sink functional areas of terrestrial ecosystems in China were mainly located in the subtropical and temperate forests, coastal wetlands in eastern China, the temperate meadow steppe in the northeast China, and the alpine meadow in eastern edge of Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. The forest ecosystems had stronger carbon sink than grassland ecosystems. The spatial patterns of GEP and ER in China were mainly determined by mean annual precipitation ( MAP ) and mean annual temperature ( MAT ), whereas the spatial variation in NEP was largely explained by MAT . The combined effects of MAT and MAP explained 79%, 62%, and 66% of the spatial variations in GEP , ER , and NEP , respectively. The GEP , ER , and NEP in different ecosystems in China exhibited ‘positive coupling correlation’ in their spatial patterns. Both ER and NEP were significantly correlated with GEP , with 68% of the per‐unit GEP contributed to ER and 29% to NEP . MAT and MAP affected the spatial patterns of ER and NEP mainly by their direct effects on the spatial pattern of GEP .

Summary Type VI secretion systems ( T6SSs ) which widely distributed in G ram‐negative bacteria have been primarily studied in the context of cell interactions with eukaryotic hosts or other bacteria. We have recently identified a thermoregulated T6SS4 in the enteric pathogen Y ersinia pseudotuberculosis . Here we report that OmpR directly binds to the promoter of T6SS4 operon and regulates its expression. Further, we observed that the OmpR ‐regulated T6SS4 is essential for bacterial survival under acidic conditions and that its expression is induced by low pH . Moreover, we showed that T6SS4 plays a role in pumping H + out of the cell to maintain intracellular pH homeostasis. The acid tolerance phenotype of T6SS4 is dependent on the ATPase activity of ClpV4 , one of the components of T6SS4 . These results not only uncover a novel strategy utilized by Y . pseudotuberculosis for acid resistance, but also reveal that T6SS , a bacteria secretion system known to be functional in protein transportation has an unexpected function in H + extrusion under acid conditions.

Interplay of RsbM and RsbK controls the σ B activity of Bacillus cereus - Lei‐Chin Chen; Jung‐Chi Chen; Jwu‐Ching Shu; Chien‐Yen Chen; Ssu‐Ching Chen; Shu‐Hwa Chen; Chun‐Yen Lin; Chi‐Yu Lu; Chien‐Cheng Chen (Environmental Microbiology, 2012)
Summary The alternative transcription factor σ B of Bacillus cereus controls the expression of a number of genes that respond to environmental stress. Four proteins encoded in the sigB gene cluster, including RsbV, RsbW, RsbY (RsbU) and RsbK, are known to be essential in the σ B ‐mediated stress response. In the context of stress, the hybrid sensor kinase RsbK is thought to phosphorylate the response regulator RsbY, a PP2C serine phosphatase, leading to the dephosphorylation of the phosphorylated RsbV. The unphosphorylated RsbV then sequesters the σ B antagonist, RsbW, ultimately liberating σ B . The gene arrangement reveals an open reading frame, bc1007 , flanked immediately downstream by rsbK within the sigB gene cluster. However, little is known about the function of bc1007 . In this study, the deletion of bc1007 resulted in high constitutive σ B expression independent of environmental stimuli, indicating that bc1007 plays a role in σ B regulation. A bacterial two‐hybrid analysis demonstrated that BC1007 interacts directly with RsbK, and autoradiographic studies revealed a specific C 14 ‐methyl transfer from the radiolabelled S‐adenosylmethionine to RsbK when RsbK was incubated with purified BC1007. Our data suggest that BC1007 (RsbM) negatively regulates σ B activity by methylating RsbK. Additionally, mutagenic substitution was employed to modify 12 predicted methylation residues in RsbK. Certain RsbK mutants were able to rescue σ B activation in a rsbK ‐deleted bacterial strain, but RsbK E439A failed to activate σ B , and RsbK E446A only moderately induced σ B . These results suggest that Glu439 is the preferred methylation site and that Glu446 is potentially a minor methylation site. Gene arrays of the rsbK orthologues and the neighbouring rsbM orthologues are found in a wide range of bacteria. The regulation of sigma factors through metylation of RsbK‐like sensor kinases appears to be widespread in the microbial world.
