MICROBIOME 2022; 10:109. [PMID: 35864536 PMCID: PMC9306216 DOI: 10.1186/s40168-022-01298-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND B and K2 vitamins, essential nutrients in host metabolism, can be synthesized by the rumen microbiome in ruminants and subsequently absorbed by the host. However, the B and K2 vitamin biosynthesis by the whole gastrointestinal microbiome and their abundances in different dietary strategies are largely unknown. Here, we reanalyzed our previous large-scale metagenomic data on the gastrointestinal microbiome of seven ruminant species and recruited 17,425 nonredundant microbial genomes from published datasets to gain a comprehensive understanding of the microbe-mediated B and K2 vitamin biosynthesis in ruminants. RESULTS We identified 1,135,807 genes and 167 enzymes involved in B and K2 vitamin biosynthesis. Our results indicated that the total abundances of B and K2 vitamin biosynthesis were dominant in the stomach microbiome, while the biosynthesis of thiamine, niacin, and pyridoxine was more abundant in the large intestine. By examining 17,425 nonredundant genomes, we identified 2366 high-quality genomes that were predicted to de novo biosynthesize at least one vitamin. Genomic analysis suggested that only 2.7% of these genomes can synthesize five or more vitamins, and nearly half of genomes can synthesize only one vitamin. Moreover, we found that most genomes possessed cobalamin transporters or cobalamin-dependent enzymes to consume cobalamin directly, and only a few microbial genomes possessed a complete cobalamin biosynthesis pathway. Based on these genomic data, we examined the effect of the high-grain (HG) diet on the vitamin biosynthesis of the rumen microbiome of dairy cattle. We revealed that most vitamin biosynthesis was enhanced in the HG group, while only cobalamin synthesis was inhibited in the HG group, indicating that dietary fiber is vital for cobalamin biosynthesis. CONCLUSIONS We primarily provided a gene catalog and 2366 microbial genomes involved in B and K2 vitamin biosynthesis in ruminants. Our findings demonstrated the regional heterogeneity and dietary effect of vitamin biosynthetic potential in the ruminant gastrointestinal microbiome and interpreted the biosynthesis mechanisms of these microbes and their physiological adaptability. This study expands our understanding of microbe-mediated vitamin biosynthesis in ruminants and may provide novel targets for manipulation to improve the production of these essential vitamins.

Duplessis M, Gervais R, Lapierre H, Girard CL. Combined biotin, folic acid, and vitamin B 12 supplementation given during the transition period to dairy cows: Part II. Effects on energy balance and fatty acid composition of colostrum and milk. J Dairy Sci 2022; 105:7097-7110. [PMID: 35787322 DOI: 10.3168/jds.2021-21678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
Biotin (B8), folate (B9), and vitamin B12 (B12) are involved in several metabolic reactions related to energy metabolism. We hypothesized that a low supply of one of these vitamins during the transition period would impair metabolic status. This study was undertaken to assess the interaction between B8 supplement and a supplementation of B9 and B12 regarding body weight (BW) change, dry matter intake, energy balance, and fatty acid (FA) compositions of colostrum and milk fat from d -21 to 21 relative to calving. Thirty-two multiparous Holstein cows housed in tie stalls were randomly assigned, according to their previous 305-d milk yield, to 8 incomplete blocks in 4 treatments: (1) a 2-mL weekly i.m. injection of saline (0.9% NaCl; B8-/B9B12-); (2) 20 mg/d of dietary B8 (unprotected from ruminal degradation) and 2-mL weekly i.m. injection of 0.9% NaCl (B8+/B9B12-); (3) 2.6 g/d of dietary B9 (unprotected) and 2-mL weekly i.m. injection of 10 mg of B12 (B8-/B9B12+); (4) 20 mg/d of dietary B8, 2.6 g/d of dietary B9, and 2-mL weekly i.m. injection of 10 mg of B12 (B8+/B9B12+) in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement. Colostrum was sampled at first milking. and milk samples were collected weekly on 2 consecutive milkings and analyzed for FA composition. Body condition score and BW were recorded every week throughout the trial. Within the first 21 d of lactation, B8-/B9B12+ cows had an increased milk yield by 13.5% [45.5 (standard error, SE: 1.8) kg/d] compared with B8-/B9B12- cows [40.1 (SE: 1.9)], whereas B8 supplement had no effect. Even though body condition score was not affected by treatment, B8-/B9B12+ cows had greater BW loss by 24 kg, suggesting higher mobilization of body reserves. Accordingly, milk de novo FA decreased and preformed FA concentration increased in B8-/B9B12+ cows compared with B8-/B9B12- cows. In addition, cows in the B8+/B9B12- group had decreased milk de novo FA and increased preformed FA concentration compared with B8-/B9B12- cows. Treatment had no effect on colostrum preformed FA concentration. Supplemental B8 decreased concentrations of ruminal biohydrogenation intermediates and odd- and branched-chain FA in colostrum and milk fat. Moreover, postpartum dry matter intake for B8+ cows tended to be lower by 1.6 kg/d. These results could indicate ruminal perturbation caused by the B8 supplement, which was not protected from rumen degradation. Under the conditions of the current study, in contrast to B8+/B9B12- cows, B8-/B9B12+ cows produced more milk without increasing dry matter intake, although these cows had greater body fat mobilization in early lactation as suggested by the FA profile and BW loss.

Abstract
AIMS To obtain yeast and bacteria from ruminal fluids that possess aflatoxin B1 (AFB1 ) detoxifying ability for use in animal feed. METHODS AND RESULTS Sources of isolation were ruminal fluids of three nonfistulated dairy cows, fed diets containing cassava pulp, rice straw or distillery yeast sludge. The isolation was carried out to screen for the isolates that were active in both anaerobic and aerobic conditions. Three yeast and three bacteria isolates were selected. Up to 85% of AFB1 was detoxified by yeast isolates and up to 60% AFB1 reduction was evident by bacteria isolates. Two yeast isolates were identified as Kluyveromyces marxianus and one isolate as Pichia kudriavzevii. The three bacteria isolates were identified as Enterococcus faecium, Corynebacterium phoceense and C. vitaeruminis. All strains showed high biomass production when cultivated in medium with 80 g l-1 glucose. CONCLUSIONS The isolated yeast and bacteria with AFB1 detoxifying ability showed a good potential to be applied as an aflatoxin-detoxifying agent to ingredients used to feed dairy cattle. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY The abilities of isolates to survive and be active in anaerobic and aerobic conditions rendered them to be active in cattle's rumen. Their biomass could be produced in bulk and used as feed supplement for aflatoxin detoxification in dairy cattle.

Abstract
Corynebacterium vitaeruminis MRU4 was isolated from the cow rumen and was differentiated from other isolates by rep-PCR and RAPD and identified by 16S rRNA sequencing. This strain presented higher survival rates for low pH and bile salts treatments, and it was able to survive and multiply in simulated gastric and intestinal environments. C. vitaeruminis MRU4 had a 53.2% auto-aggregation rate, 42.4% co-aggregation rate with Listeria monocytogenes Scott A, 41.6% co-aggregation rate with Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 19443, 10.0% co-aggregation rate with Lactobacillus sakei ATCC 15521, and 98.2% cell surface hydrophobicity rate. PCR analysis showed the presence of EFTu and map genes. The strain possessed positive results for deconjugation of bile salts (taurocholic acid, taurodeoxycholic acid, glycocholic acid, and glycodeoxycholic acid) and positive results for β-galactosidase activity and lactose assimilation activity (glucose of 8.15 ± 0.01 CFU/ml and lactose of 9.24 ± 0.02 CFU/ml). No virulence was observed by phenotypical tests. C. vitaeruminis MRU4 was resistant to oxacillin, gentamicin, erythromycin, clindamycin, sulfa/trimethoprim, and rifampicin by the disc diffusion method and showed resistance just for vancomycin by the Etest® strips test. The strain was negative for 50 tested virulence and resistance genes based on performed PCR. Based on our knowledge, this is the first report regarding the beneficial potential of one C. vitaeruminis strain.

Abstract
This review gathers recent information about genomic and transcriptomic studies in the Corynebacterium genus, exploring, for example, prediction of pathogenicity islands and stress response in different pathogenic and non-pathogenic species. In addition, is described several phylogeny studies to Corynebacterium, exploring since the identification of species until biological speciation in one species belonging to the genus Corynebacterium. Important concepts associated with virulence highlighting the role of Pld protein and Tox gene. The adhesion, characteristic of virulence factor, was described using the sortase mechanism that is associated to anchorage to the cell wall. In addition, survival inside the host cell and some diseases, were too addressed for pathogenic corynebacteria, while important biochemical pathways and biotechnological applications retain the focus of this review for non-pathogenic corynebacteria. Concluding, this review broadly explores characteristics in genus Corynebacterium showing to have strong relevance inside the medical, veterinary, and biotechnology field.
