Full textAbstract:
Genome mining of pigmented Pseudoalteromonas has revealed a large potential for the production of bioactive compounds and hydrolytic enzymes. The purpose of the present study was to explore this bioactivity potential in a potent antibiotic and enzyme producer, Pseudoalteromonas rubra strain S4059. Proteomic analyses (data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD023249) indicated that a highly efficient chitin degradation machinery was present in the red-pigmented P. rubra S4059 when grown on chitin. Four GH18 chitinases and two GH20 hexosaminidases were significantly upregulated under these conditions. GH19 chitinases, which are not common in bacteria, are consistently found in pigmented Pseudoalteromonas, and in S4059, GH19 was only detected when the bacterium was grown on chitin. To explore the possible role of GH19 in pigmented Pseudoalteromonas, we developed a protocol for genetic manipulation of S4059 and deleted the GH19 chitinase, and compared phenotypes of the mutant and wild type. However, none of the chitin degrading ability, secondary metabolite profile, or biofilm-forming capacity was affected by GH19 deletion. In conclusion, we developed a genetic manipulation protocol that can be used to unravel the bioactive potential of pigmented pseudoalteromonads. An efficient chitinolytic enzyme cocktail was identified in S4059, suggesting that this strain could be a candidate with industrial potential.

Full textAbstract:
An ubiquinone derivative, pseudoalteromone A (1), has been isolated from two marine-derived Pseudoalteromonas spp., APmarine002 and ROA-050, and its anti-melanogenesis activity was investigated. The anti-melanogenic capacity of pseudoalteromone A was demonstrated by assessing the intracellular and extracellular melanin content and cellular tyrosinase activity in the B16 cell line, Melan-a mouse melanocyte cell line, and MNT-1 human malignant melanoma cell line. Treatment with pseudoalteromone A (40 μg/mL) for 72 h reduced α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-induced intracellular melanin production by up to 44.68% in B16 cells and 38.24% in MNT-1 cells. Notably, pseudoalteromone A induced a concentration-dependent reduction in cellular tyrosinase activity in B16 cell, and Western blot analyses showed that this inhibitory activity was associated with a significant decrease in protein levels of tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein 1 (Tyrp-1), suggesting that pseudoalteromone A exerts its anti-melanogenesis activity through effects on melanogenic genes. We further evaluated the skin-whitening effect of pseudoalteromone A in the three-dimensional (3D) pigmented-epidermis model, MelanoDerm, and visualized the 3D distribution of melanin by two-photon excited fluorescence imaging in this human skin equivalent. Collectively, our findings suggest that pseudoalteromone A inhibits tyrosinase activity and expression and that this accounts for its anti-melanogenic effects in melanocytes.

Two Gram-negative, motile and strictly aerobic marine bacteria were isolated from a tidal flat sediment sample obtained from Dae-Chun, Chung-Nam, Korea. They were preliminarily identified as Pseudoalteromonas-like bacteria, based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis showing nearly identical sequences (>99.7 % sequence similarity) and the highest similarity (98.4 %) to the species Pseudoalteromonas undina. Some phenotypic features of the newly isolated strains were similar to those of members of the genus Pseudoalteromonas, but several physiological and chemo-taxonomical properties readily distinguished the new isolates from previously described species. DNA–DNA hybridization with type strains of phylogenetically closely related species demonstrated that the isolates represent a novel Pseudoalteromonas species, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas marina sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain mano4T (=KCTC 12242T=DSM 17587T). In addition, on the basis of this study and polyphasic data obtained from previous work, it is proposed that the species Pseudoalteromonas sagamiensis should be reclassified as Algicola sagamiensis comb. nov. and that strain B-10-31T (=DSM 14643T=JCM 11461T) be designated the type strain.

A Gram-negative, motile, strictly aerobic, violet-pigment-producing bacterium, designated strain FR1199T, was isolated from tidal flat sediment of Byunsan, South Korea. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence revealed that strain FR1199T represents a distinct line of descent within the genus Pseudoalteromonas. The phenotypic features of strain FR1199T were similar to those of Pseudoalteromonas phenolica and Pseudoalteromonas luteoviolacea, but several physiological and chemotaxonomical properties readily distinguished strain FR1199T from these species. Major fatty acids were straight-chain saturated (C16 : 0) and monounsaturated C18 : 1 ω7c fatty acids. The DNA G+C content was 39 mol%. On the basis of polyphasic evidence, it is concluded that the isolate represents a novel species within the genus Pseudoalteromonas, for which the name Pseudoalteromonas byunsanensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is FR1199T (=JCM 12483T=KCTC 12274T).

A Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming, motile, aerobic bacterium, designated Y2T, was isolated from surface seawater of Yundang Lake, Xiamen, China. The strain was able to grow in the presence of 0.5–6.0 % NaCl (optimum 1.0–1.5 %), at pH 5–10 (optimum pH 8) and at 10–40 °C (optimum 25 °C). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain Y2T belongs to the genus Pseudoalteromonas , with the highest sequence similarity of 94.9 % to Pseudoalteromonas tunicata D2T; within the genus Pseudoalteromonas , it showed the lowest similarity of 92.8 % to Pseudoalteromonas denitrificans ATCC 43337T. The G+C content of the chromosomal DNA of strain Y2T was 45.1 mol%. The predominant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1ω6c and/or C16 : 1ω7c), C16 : 0, C12 : 0 3-OH and summed feature 8 (C18 : 1ω6c and/or C18 : 1ω7c). The only respiratory quinone detected was Q-8. Based on the phylogenetic and phenotypic characteristics, strain Y2T represents a novel species of the genus Pseudoalteromonas , for which the name Pseudoalteromonas xiamenensis sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain is Y2T ( = CGMCC 1.12157T = JCM 18779T).

Full textAbstract:
A bstract: Quorum sensing (QS) enables single-celled bacteria to communicate with chemical signals in order to synchronize group-level bacterial behavior. Pseudoalteromonas are marine bacteria found in versatile environments, of which QS regulation for their habitat adaptation is extremely fragmentary. To distinguish genes required for QS regulation in Pseudoalteromonas, comparative genomics was deployed to define the pan-genomics for twelve isolates and previously-sequenced genomes, of which acyl-homoserine lactone (AHL)-based QS traits were characterized. Additionally, transposon mutagenesis was used to identify the essential QS regulatory genes in the selected Pseudoalteromonas isolate. A remarkable feature showed that AHL-based colorization intensity of biosensors induced by Pseudoalteromonas most likely correlates with QS regulators genetic heterogeneity within the genus. This is supported by the relative expression levels of two of the main QS regulatory genes (luxO and rpoN) analyzed in representative Pseudoalteromonas isolates. Notably, comprehensive QS regulatory schema and the working model proposed in Pseudoalteromonas seem to phylogenetically include the network architectures derived from Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas, and Vibrio. Several associated genes were mapped by transposon mutagenesis. Among them, a right origin-binding protein-encoding gene (robp) was functionally identified as a positive QS regulatory gene. This gene lies on a genomic instable region and exists in the aforementioned bioinformatically recruited QS regulatory schema. The obtained data emphasize that the distinctly- and hierarchically-organized mechanisms probably target QS association in Pseudoalteromonas dynamic genomes, thus leading to bacterial ability to accommodate their adaption fitness and survival advantages.

Strain RA15T was isolated from the rhizosphere of the halophyte plant Arthrocnemum macrostachyum growing in the Odiel marshes (Huelva, Spain). RA15T cells were Gram stain-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic rods and formed cream-coloured, opaque, mucoid, viscous, convex, irregular colonies with an undulate margin. Optimal growth conditions were observed on tryptic soy agar (TSA) plates supplemented with 2.5 % NaCl (w/v) at pH 7.0 and 28 °C, although it was able to grow at 4–32 °C and at pH values of 5.0–9.0. The NaCl tolerance range was from 0 to 15 %. The major respiratory quinone was Q8 but Q9 was also present. The most abundant fatty acids were summed feature 3 (C16 : 1 ω7c and/or C16 : 1 ω6c), C17 : 1 ω8c and C16 : 0. The polar lipids profile comprised phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine as the most abundant representatives. Phylogenetic analyses confirmed the well-supported affiliation of strain RA15T within the genus Pseudoalteromonas , close to the type strains of Pseudoalteromonas neustonica , Pseudoalteromonas prydzensis and Pseudoalteromonas mariniglutinosa . Results of comparative phylogenetic and phenotypic studies between strain RA15T and its closest related species suggest that RA15T could be a new representative of the genus Pseudoalteromonas , for which the name Pseudoalteromonas rhizosphaerae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is RA15T (=CECT 9079T=LMG 29860T). The whole genome has 5.3 Mb and the G+C content is 40.4 mol%.

Pseudoalteromonas bacteria are known as potential bioactive metabolite producers. Because of the need to obtain natural molecules inhibiting the bacterial biofilms, we investigated the biofilm inhibitory activity of the marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. IIIA004 against the pioneer surface colonizer Roseovarius sp. VA014. The anti-biofilm activity from the culture supernatant of Pseudoalteromonas sp. IIIA004 (SNIIIA004) was characterized in microtiter plates (static conditions/polystyrene surface) and in flow cell chambers (dynamic conditions/glass surface). The Pseudoalteromonas exoproducts exhibited an inhibition of Roseovarius sp. VA014 biofilm formation as well as a strong biofilm dispersion, without affecting the bacterial growth. Microbial adhesion to solvent assays showed that SNIIIA004 did not change the broad hydrophilic and acid character of the Roseovarius strain surface. Bioassay-guided purification using solid-phase extraction and C18 reverse-phase-high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was performed from SNIIIA004 to isolate the proteinaceous active compound against the biofilm formation. This new anti-biofilm low weight molecule (< 3kDa), named P004, presented a wide spectrum of action on various bacterial biofilms, with 71% of sensitive strains including marine bacteria and human pathogens. Pseudoalteromonas sp. IIIA004 is a promising source of natural anti-biofilm compounds that combine several activities.

The chemical investigation carried out with the bacteria Pseudoalteromonas sp. lead to the isolation a red pigment identified as prodigiosin and two bile acids derivatives known as deoxycholic acid and cholic acid. The prodigiosin was evaluated against four tumor cell lines showing IC50 values similar to the positive control doxorubicin. The chemical study of Micromonospora sp. Resulted in the isolation of four new anthracyclinones designed as 4,6,11-trihydroxy-9-propryltetracene-5,12-dione; 4-methoxy-9-propyltetracene-6,11-dione; 7,8,9,10 - tetrahydro-9-hydroxy-4-methoxy-9-propiltetra-cene-6,11-dione and 10β-Carbomethoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydro-4,6,7α,9α,11-pentahydroxy-9-propyltetracene-5,12-dione . The cytotoxic potential of these compounds were evaluated against HCT-8cell line, two of which showed moderate cytotoxicity with IC50 values of 12.74 and 6.18 M, respectively. From Streptomyces sp. strain was isolated a ditiolpyrrolidin, established as 5-oxo-6-(N-methylformamide) -4,5 - dihydro-1,2-dithiol [4,3-b] pyrrole. This secondary metabolite was tested against six tumor cell lines, shown IC50 values of 1.66, 1.05 and 1.52 mM for the metastatic prostate lines, ovarium carcinoma and glioblastoma, respectively.

Full textAbstract:
The eukaryote-associated Pseudoalteromonas tunicata produces two pigments and several other bioactive compounds that are able to inhibit a range of marine organisms including bacteria, protozoa, fungi, algal spores and invertebrate larvae. Early studies suggested that the production of bioactive compounds is correlated with pigmentation in P. tunicata. In one of these studies, a transposon mutagenesis library identified a white mutant, wmpD-, which had been disrupted in a gene encoding a component of the type 11 secretion (T2S) machinery. The T2S system is involved in the transport of different extracellular enzymes in many bacteria. In some cases, the T2S pathway also exports proteins that remain attached to the cells. This thesis aimed to investigate the role of the T2S pathway in the production of the pigments and bioactive compounds in P. tunicata. In order to gain insight into this relationship, two proteomics approaches (2D-PAGE and iTRAQ) were applied to investigate the profile of the secreted proteins (or secretome) in P. tunicata wild-type and the white mutant wmpD-. Proteomic analysis using 2D-PAGE revealed that 23 proteins were differentially expressed between P. tunicata Wt and the mutant wmpD-. The identities of some of these proteins could be correlated with the function of the T2S system in P. tunicata. The role of one of the proteins identified using 2D-PAGE was further investigated through the construction of a gene knockout mutant (hiik mutant). The supernatant activity of the hiik mutant was compared to that of P. tunicata Wt, and it was found that the HiiA protease is required to block the activity of antimicrobial peptides, such as cecropins, produced by eukaryotic hosts in the environment. The second proteomics approach (iTRAQ) used in this thesis, enabled the relative quantitation of a number of proteins in the supernatant of P. tunicata Wt and the white mutant wmpD-. Some proteins with no function to date (hypothetical) were absent in the extracellular fraction of the wmpD- mutant, indicating they may be transported to the extracellular environment via the T2S pathway in P. tunicata. The comparative analysis of the secretome also revealed that TonS-related proteins, involved in iron acquisition, were up-regulated in the wmpD- mutant, possibly to compensate for the lack of TonS-dependant receptors in the outer membrane. Assays for iron binding activity showed that P. tunicata Wt seems to release iron binding compounds (or siderophores) constitutively into the supernatant, in contrast to the white mutant wmpD-, which responds to iron limitation by increasing the production of siderophores. Further outer membrane fractionation studies, indicated that the P. tunicata T2S system is likely to be involved in the transport of TonB-dependant receptors to the outer membrane. The overall results discussed in this thesis indicate that the T2S system has an essential role in the general physiology of P. tunicata, as for iron metabolism, as well as in the in the relationship between this bacterium and eukaryotic hosts in the environment.

Full textAbstract:
Siderophores are secreted by marine bacteria to increase Fe uptake when Fe is limiting but are not produced when sufficient Fe is present to saturate growth. These results are well established in laboratory batch cultures of a number of isolates obtained from the open sea. Little is known, however, regarding the kinetics of siderophore secretion by heterotrophic bacteria in response to transients in Fe deprivation and resupply. We examined growth, hydroxamate siderophore concentration, and electron transport chain activity (a biochemical measure of Fe nutritional state) of Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis, a representative gamma-proteobacterium from the Fe deficient region of the subarctic Pacific Ocean. Hydroxamate concentration was roughly 5-fold higher in batch cultures grown in low than in high Fe medium. Iron injection to the low Fe cultures repressed hydroxamic acid production and increased growth and ETC activity. Steady-state hydroxamate concentration in the chemostat increased 5-fold as Fe-limited growth rate declined from 9.8 to 2.8 d -1. This increase compounded to a 2.8-fold change in hydroxamates cell-1 reflecting the greater costs of growth at low Fe. Three types of Fe perturbation were made to Fe-limited chemostat cultures: 1) A switch perturbation that decreased the dilution rate of the chemostat-by ∼3-fold caused a transient increase in cell density that subsequently declined to a new steady state level. Hydroxamate concentration increased linearly over the same time. 2) A transient addition of dissolved Fe increased the total hydroxamate concentration in the chemostat within 1-3 hours which was followed by a decrease and then subsequent increase as the cells re-entered Fe-limitation. Dilution rate affected the response. Normalized to bacteria density, hydroxamate concentration remained constant for the first 2 hours after the Fe addition and then declined and returned to pre-infusion levels. Thus, Fe addition stimulated siderophore production by increasing the density of bacteria, which continued to secrete hydroxamates at a Fe-limited rate. 3) A continuous addition of low levels of dissolved Fe increased bacteria density and siderophore concentration. The net secretion rate of siderophores was proportional to the increase in Fe supply rate to the chemostat. At high Fe concentration, hydroxamate concentration declined to undetectable levels as the bacteria became Fe-sufficient and C-limited. Siderophore secretion by Fe-limited P. haloplanktis was repressed after 2 hours (corresponding roughly to 1-2 cell generations) following Fe re-supply.

L’enzima ha mostrato una struttura omotrimerica con un Mr pari a 255000, come valutato da analisi della massa molecolare in condizioni native e denaturanti. Utilizzando software bioinformatici dedicati sono state ottenute, a partire dalla sequenza amminoacidica, predizioni della struttura secondaria e terziaria del monomero. Inoltre, sono stati condotti studi sulla composizione amminoacidica che hanno permesso di evidenziare che la PhPNPasi mostra i tipici adattamenti delle proteine psicrofile.
I parametri cinetici sono stati determinati a 15°C, utilizzando poli(A) come primer e GDP marcato come substrato. E’ stato valutato l’effetto sull’attività enzimatica di concentrazioni crescenti di GDP, consentendo di calcolare i parametri cinetici. L’attività della PhPNPasi è risultata essere stimolata dalla presenza di alcuni cationi monovalenti nella miscela di reazione, caratteristica già evidenziata per un altri enzimi isolati da P. haloplanktis. Tra essi il CsCl ad una concentrazione 0,9 M è risultato il più efficace, aumentando l’attività dell’enzima di circa 7 volte.
L’attività enzimatica della PhPNPasi aumenta con l’incremento della temperatura, raggiungendo un valore massimo a 40°C; oltre questa temperatura si osserva un decremento della velocità di reazione, probabilmente dovuto alla sua inattivazione termica. Nell’intervallo 0-40°C è stato calcolato un valore di energia di attivazione (Ea) pari a 87 kJ/mol.
La PhPNPasi è un enzima piuttosto sensibile al trattamento termico, infatti l’energia di attivazione della reazione di inattivazione termica nell’intervallo 30-70°C è risultata pari a 96,7 kJ/mol, valore significativamente più basso di quello osservato per altre proteine isolate da fonti mesofile o termofile. La termostabilità di questo enzima è stata valutata anche con analisi di tipo spettroscopico. Le curve di UV melting hanno mostrato una temperatura di semidenaturazione di 46°C, valore significativamente più alto di quello a cui si registra la massima attività catalitica. I risultati indicano che il centro catalico della PhPNPasi è molto meno stabile del resto della struttura della proteina.Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is involved in the nucleotide metabolism pathway of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. The enzyme catalyzes the phosphorolytic degradation of RNA, releasing nucleoside 5’-diphosphates from the 3’ end of the substrate, and the reverse reaction of nucleoside 5’-diphosphate polymerization. In this work it’s described the procedure of isolation and the characterization of PNPase from the psychrophilic eubacterium Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis (Ph, optimal growth condition 4-20°C), identified for its ability to catalyse the following reversible reaction: RNA(n) + Pi ↔ RNA(n-1) + ppN PhPNPase showed a homotrimeric structure of 255 kDa, as evaluated by molecular mass analysis under native and denatured conditions. Using bioinformatic software, starting from the amino acid sequence, a prediction of the secondary and tertiary monomer structure have been obtained. Besides, studies on the amino acid composition have been carried out, thus evidencing that PhPNPase shows the typical adaptation of proteins isolated from psychrophilic organisms. The kinetic parameters have been determined at 15°C, using poly(A) as a primer and [3H]GDP as substrate. The effect of increasing concentration of [3H]GDP on the activity has been evaluated, thus allowing the determination of the kinetic parameters of the polymerization reaction. The activity of PhPNPase is stimulated by selected monovalent cations added in the reaction mixture, a feature already observed for other enzymes isolated from P. haloplanktis. Among the cations tested, CsCl, added to 0.9 M final concentration, has resulted the most effective, enhancing PhPNPase activity of about 7-fold. The effect of temperature on the activity and stability of PhPNPase has also been tested. In particular, the activity of PhPNPase increases with increasing temperature, reaching a maximum at 40°C; beyond this temperature a straight decay of the activity has been observed, due to thermal inactivation of the enzyme. In the 0-40°C interval, a value of 87 kJ/mol for the energy of activation of the reaction (Ea) has been calculated. Studies about the effect of temperature on PhPNPase stability have shown that this enzyme is a quite thermolabile protein; in fact, the Ea of the thermal inactivation reaction in the 30-70°C interval, is 96.7 kJ/mol, a value significantly lower than those observed for other proteins isolated from mesophilic and thermophilic sources. The thermostability of this enzyme has also been investigated by spectroscopic analysis. UV-melting curves have shown a temperature for half-denaturation of 46°C, a value significantly higher than that found for the maximum catalytic activity. These results indicate that the catalitic centre of PhPNPase is less stable of the overall protein structure.

Full textAbstract:
Le contrôle du biofouling sur des surfaces inertes immergées ou en atmosphère humide est une nécessité dans le secteur marin, tant pour des raisons économiques qu’environnementales. La formation de biofilm microbien, étape préalable à la formation du biofouling, est souvent intrinsèquement liée chez les bactéries au système de communication “Quorum Sensing” (QS). Chez certaines bactéries Gram négatif, le QS est basé sur la perception de petites molécules diffusibles appelées N- Acyl Homosérine Lactones (AHLs). L’une des stratégies antifouling en voie de développement de nos jours repose sur l’inhibition du QS bactérien. L’objectif de cette thèse est d’utiliser certaines bactéries marines afin d’identifier des molécules anti-QS capables de perturber la formation de biofilm. Ce travail a donc porté sur la mise en évidence de molécules AHLs impliquées dans le QS chez certaines bactéries marines isolées de la rade de Toulon, l’étude de la modulation de certains phénotypes dont la formation du biofilm, par ces molécules et, la mise en place d’un test préliminaire d’inhibition du QS. Parmi les trois bactéries isolées de la rade de Toulon (TC8, TC14 et TC15) du genre Pseudoalteromonas, connues pour produire de nombreuses molécules actives, et testées pour leur capacité à sécréter des AHLs, seule Pseudoalteromonas sp. TC15 a produit la C12-HSL. P. ulvae TC14, capable de produire un biofilm conséquent et de la violacéine, ne produit aucune AHL. Afin d’évaluer la possibilité d’utiliser une bactérie marine comme outil de criblage anti-QS, interférant avec les AHLs et les conséquences sur son biofilm, des AHLs exogènes ont été testées sur la production de violacéine, la formation de biofilm et la mobilité de TC14. Certaines AHLs ont montré qu’elles pouvaient réguler la production de violacéine et la formation de biofilm chez TC14, suggérant l’existence d’un récepteur AHLs fonctionnel. Des tests préliminaires d’inhibition du QS ont été effectués avec des molécules commerciales et des analogues synthétiques. La 3-oxo-C6-HSL commerciale, ainsi que l’esculétine et la p- benzoquinone, connues pour interférer avec le QS bactérien, ont été capables d’inhiber la production de violacéine ainsi que la formation de biofilm de TC14 à des concentrations n’affectant pas sa croissance. Cette étude suggère donc que P. ulvae TC14 pourrait être utilisée comme un outil de recherche de molécules anti-QS en conditions proches de celles trouvées dans l’environnement marin, et ce dans le but d’être ultérieurement testées sur la formation de biofilm. L’objectif à plus long terme reste de trouver un moyen de limiter la formation du biofilm en utilisant des molécules non toxiques pour l’environnementThe biofouling control on immersed inert surfaces or in moist atmosphere is a necessity in the marine sector for both economic and environmental reasons. Microbial biofilm formation, the initial step of biofouling development, is intrinsically linked to the communication system “Quorum sensing” (QS). In some Gram negative bacteria, QS is based on the perception of small diffusible signaling molecules called Acyl Homoserine Lactones (AHLs). The inhibition of bacterial QS is part of the different antifouling strategies currently developed. This present work focused on the detection of AHLs molecules involved in this communication system in bacteria isolated from Toulon harbor and the study of modulation of some phenotypes, including biofilm formation, by these molecules as well as the development of a preliminary anti-QS assay. Three marine bacteria isolated from Toulon harbor (TC8, TC14 and TC15), belonging to the Pseudoalteromonas genus, known to synthesize many active molecules, have been tested for their ability to produce AHLs. Only Pseudoalteromonas sp. TC15 produced the C12-HSL. P. ulvae TC14 a violacein-producing and biofilm-forming bacteria, did not secrete any AHLs. Few marine bacteria are used as an anti-QS screening tool, especially by interfering with AHLs with the goal of studying the consequences on biofilm formation. In order to evaluate the possibility to use TC14 with this purpose, exogenous AHLs were tested on the violacein production, the biofilm formation and the motility of TC14. Some AHLs were able to regulate violacein production and biofilm formation suggesting the presence of a functional AHLs receptor in TC14. Preliminary QS inhibition assays were performed with commercial molecules and synthetic analogues. The commercial 3-oxo-C6-HSL as well as esculetin and p-benzoquinone, known to interfere with bacterial QS, were able to inhibit QS and biofilm formation at a non-toxic concentration. Overall, this study suggests that the marine strain P. ulvae TC14 may be used as a tool for the detection of anti-QS molecules in conditions closed to the marine environment. These molecules may subsequently be tested on the biofilm formation of marine bacteria. The long term objective is to find a way to limit biofilm formation, using non-toxic molecules for the environment

Full textAbstract:
Le biofilm est un mode de vie qui confère aux bactéries une protection contre les agents antimicrobiens et pose un problème de santé publique qui nécessite de trouver une alternative aux traitements actuels. La bactérie marine Pseudoalteromonas sp. 3J6 et ses exoproduits (SN3J6) montrent une activité antibiofilm contre des bactéries marines et terrestres. Une protéine, nommée altérocine, a été extraite du SN3J6. Bien que présente chez plusieurs autres souches de Pseudoalteromonas, son rôle est encore inconnu dans les bases de données. Ce projet a été consacré à l’étude de l’altérocine. Les caractéristiques de cette protéine ainsi que celles de son gène, alt, ont dans un premier temps été étudiées. Le gène alt n’est pas organisé en opéron et plusieurs promoteurs potentiels ont été identifiés. Il est exprimé préférentiellement durant la phase stationnaire. Il code une protéine de 139 résidus incluant un peptide signal prédit, qui permettrait la sécrétion de l’altérocine mature (119 résidus). Aucune homologie de séquence n’a été observée entre l’altérocine et les protéines de fonction connue des bases de données. Afin de détecter plus facilement l’altérocine dans le surnageant de culture, des anticorps anti-altérocine ont été obtenus. Nous avons dans un second temps confirmé l’activité antibiofilm de l’altérocine par une production hétérologue chez une autre souche de Pseudoalteromonas et en comparant les biofilms obtenus en présence des surnageants de culture de cette souche et de sa souche mère. Nous avons montré que l’altérocine est un nouveau type de protéine antibiofilm dont la structure et le mode d’action restent à déterminer pour l’utiliser comme agent antibiofilmThe biofilm lifestyle gives bacteria a protection against antibacterial agents and leads to public health problems that require an alternative to current treatments. The marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas sp. 3J6 and its exoproducts (SN3J6) display an antibiofilm activity against various bacteria from marine or terrestrial origin. A protein from SN3J6, named alterocin, was partially purified. Although the protein is found in several other Pseudoalteromonas strains, its function remains unknown. In this work, we studied the alterocin. We investigated the protein and gene characteristics at first. The gene alt, coding alterocin, is not part of an operon and several potential promoters were identified. According to our results, its expression seems subject to regulation as it is mainly expressed in stationary phase. It encodes a 139-residue protein with a putative leader peptide, which would allow the secretion of mature alterocin as a 119-residue protein. No sequence homology has been found between alterocin and other proteins of known function in data bases. Anti-alterocin antibodies were produced for an easily detection method. In a second time, we confirmed the antibiofilm activity of alterocin by heterologous production in another Pseudoalteromonas strain and comparing biofilms obtained in the presence of culture supernatants of either this strain or the parental strain. In this work, we showed that the alterocin is a new type of antibiofilm protein whose structure and mechanism of action remain to be elucidated to use it as antibiofilm agent

Full textAbstract:
The marine surface-associated bacterium Pseudoaltermonas tunicata, produces a range of compounds that inhibit fouling organisms, including invertebrate larvae, bacteria, algal spores and fungi. In addition to these antifouling compounds P. tunicata cells produce both a yellow and a purple pigment. The aim of this study was to further characterise the antifouling activities, their regulation and relationship with pigmentation, and the ecological significance of P. tunicata and related organisms. It was discovered that the anti-algal compound was extracellular, heat sensitive, polar and between 3 and 10 kDa in size. The anti-fungal compound was found to be the yellow pigment and active against a wide range of fungal and yeast isolates. Chemical analysis suggests that this compound consists of a carbon ring bound to a fatty-acid side chain. Genetic analysis supports the chemical data for the active compound as a mutant in a gene encoding for a long-chain fatty-acid CoA ligase was deficient for anti-fungal activity. To address the regulation of antifouling compounds and their relationship to pigmentation transposon mutagenesis of P. tunicata was performed. Mutants lacking the yellow pigment displayed a reduced ability to inhibit fouling organisms. Further analysis of these mutants identified genes involved with the synthesis and regulation of synthesis of pigment and antifouling compounds. One of these mutants was disrupted in a gene (wmpR) with similarity to the transcriptional regulators ToxR from Vibrio cholerae and CadC from Escherichia coli. Analysis of global protein expression using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that WmpR is essential for the expression of at least fifteen proteins important for the synthesis of fouling inhibitors. The ecological significance of antifouling bacteria was addressed by assessing the antifouling capabilities of a collection of bacteria isolated from different marine surfaces. Overall, isolates from living surfaces displayed more antifouling traits then strains isolated from non-living surfaces. Five dark-pigmented strains originating from the alga Ulva lactuca were further studied. Phylogenetic and phenotypic analysis revealed that they were all members of the genus Pseudoalteromonas and were closely related to P. tunicata. Two strains represented a novel species within the genus and were taxonomically defined as P. ulvae sp. nov.

Full textAbstract:
The dark-green pigmented marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas tunicata produces several extracellular compounds against a range of common fouling organisms including bacteria, fungi, protozoa, diatoms, invertebrate larvae and algal spores. The regulator WmpR, which has N-terminal similarity to ToxR from Vibrio cholerae and CadC from Escherichia coli, controls all of the pigment and antifouling phenotypes. These compounds appear at the onset of stationary phase. The role of WmpR as a stationary phase regulator in P. tunicata was investigated in this thesis. Starvation and stress studies demonstrated that WmpR does not appear to control genes necessary for survival during carbon, phosphate or nitrogen starvation and UV/hydrogen peroxide stress. Intriguingly, phosphate starvation caused pigmentation of wmpR mutant (D2W2) logarithmic phase cells, suggesting a second regulation of the pigments (and thus antifouling compounds) that could be mediated by the PhoR/B twocomponent regulatory system. Proteomic analysis using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE) found that 11 proteins were differentially regulated by WmpR, and the identities of some of these proteins suggested a role for WmpR as a general stationary phase regulator rather than a specific starvation or stress regulator. Gene expression studies using RNA-arbitrarily primed PCR introduced a new role for WmpR as a regulator of iron acquisition; a TonB-dependant outer membrane receptor gene and a non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene were up-regulated in the stationary phase Wt strain compared to the D2W2 strain. An assay for iron-binding activity supported the proposal that the NRPS may be making a siderophore. Further studies demonstrated that WmpR is required for survival under long-term low-iron conditions and that the pigments and antifouling genes are down-regulated during low-iron, while biofilm formation is up-regulated. WmpR also appears to constitutively regulate the production of iron-binding compounds, a novel regulation of iron acquisition that has not been seen in other organisms studied so far. A model is proposed that describes WmpR as responding to environmental signals, including iron, and co-ordinating the expression of a complex regulon including a number of genes involved in iron acquisition, general stationary phase physiology and bioactive secondary metabolite production.

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 135-154).The objective of this study was to identify a potential probiotic bacterium that increased the growth and decreased the susceptibility of farmed abalone to pathogenic bacterial infection. The mechanism by which the probiotic is able to increase growth rates and reduced susceptibility to pathogen infection was investigated. A number of bacterial strains were isolated from the digestive tract of Haliotis midae that are capable of degrading a wide variety of different polysaccharides (Erasmus, 1996). Strain C4 was selected for further investigation as a result of its ability to degrade alginate since H. midae is predominantly fed a kelp diet of which the major component is alginate.

Abstract Bacteriophage PM2 is the only described member of the Corticoviridae family (1). It was isolated from seawater collected from a polluted bay off the coast of Chile (13). The original host was a common marine bacterium Pseudoalteromonas espejiana BAL-31 (originally Pseudomonas BAL-31; 14, 18), which is the source of the DNA exonuclease BAL-31. Alternatively, Pseudoalteromonas sp. ER72M2 obtained from the East River, New York, by Leonard Mindich (26) can be used as a host for PM2. PM2 is the first bacteriophage in which the presence of lipids in the virion was firmly demonstrated (7, 15). The mass of the virion ( 4.5 107 Da) is distributed among nucleic acid (14%), lipid (14%), and protein (72%) constituents (8, 9). The sedimentation coefficient (S20,w) of the particle is 293 S and buoyant density in sucrose and cesium chloride is 1.26 g/cm3 and 1.28 g/cm3, respectively (8, 26). The stability of the virion is dependent on sodium and calcium ions and the virion equilibrated in sucrose is inactive (26).

The viral membrane is located internally (7, 20) and it forms, together with the phage-encoded membrane-associated proteins and the phage DNA, a lipid core particle (25). An icosahedrally ordered capsid, about 60 nm in diameter, surrounds the lipid core. Thus the overall architecture of PM2 resembles that of bacteriophage PRD1, a tectivirus, which has a membrane vesicle surrounding the linear double-stranded DNA genome and an outer icosahedral capsid of approximately 65 nm in diameter (see chapter 13).

Full textAbstract:
A biomimetic method to mitigate marine biofouling using a pilot-whale inspired sacrificial skin concept has been developed. We developed a method to form conformal, protective skins in-situ underwater using a circulatory system. In addition, the materials chemistry was tuned such that the skin dissolves after a tunable stable period, removing any foulants that may have collected on it. A very large reduction in biofouling was demonstrated for surfaces protected by the sacrificial skin compared to identical unprotected surfaces, when high fouling pressure was generated using bacteria in artificial seawater. Skin formation, stability, and dissolution have been studied by forming skins on 6 inch square flat substrates, and curved surfaces. Several different materials and material combinations were tested for their skin-forming ability. Rheology studies were conducted to determine the changes in viscosity of the materials upon exposure to seawater. The materials microstructure and composition was probed before and after seawater exposure. These experiments helped explain the mechanisms by which skin formation and dissolution occurs. Biofouling experiments consisted of culturing and growing the bacteria Pseudoalteromonas carrageenovera, a strain known to cause biofouling in marine environments. Efforts focused on determining experimental conditions necessary to achieve high levels of biofouling growth in the shortest amount of time. Marine-like environments were created in the range of a few hundred milliliters of artificial seawater and scaled to several liters, large enough to contain a 6 inch × 6 inch substrate.
