Reyes-Rosario D, Pardo JP, Guerra-Sánchez G, Vázquez-Meza H, López-Hernández G, Matus-Ortega G, González J, Baeza M, Romero-Aguilar L. Analysis of the Respiratory Activity in the Antarctic Yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa M94C9 Reveals the Presence of Respiratory Supercomplexes and Alternative Elements. Microorganisms 2024; 12:1931. [PMID: 39458241 PMCID: PMC11509550 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms12101931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2024] [Revised: 09/19/2024] [Accepted: 09/20/2024] [Indexed: 10/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The respiratory activities of mitochondrial complexes I, II, and IV were analyzed in permeabilized Rhodotorula mucilaginosa cells and isolated mitochondria, and the kinetic parameters K0.5 and Vmax were obtained. No difference in substrate affinities were found between mitochondria and permeabilized cells. The activities of the components of the mitochondrial respiratory chain of the Antarctic yeast R. mucilaginosa M94C9 were identified by in-gel activity and SDS-PAGE. The mitochondria exhibited activity for the classical components of the electron transport chain (Complexes I, II, III, and IV), and supercomplexes were formed by a combination of the respiratory complexes I, III, and IV. Unfortunately, the activities of the monomeric and dimeric forms of the F1F0-ATP synthase were not revealed by the in-gel assay, but the two forms of the ATP synthase were visualized in the SDS-PAGE. Furthermore, two alternative pathways for the oxidation of cytosolic NADH were identified: the alternative NADH dehydrogenase and the glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. In addition, an NADPH dehydrogenase and a lactate cytochrome b2 dehydrogenase were found. The residual respiratory activity following cyanide addition suggests the presence of an alternative oxidase in cells.

[PMID: 38145764 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2023.130245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 12/27/2023]
Abstract
Excessive sodium significantly inhibits citric acid fermentation by Aspergillus niger during the recycling of citric acid wastewater. This study aimed to elucidate the inhibition mechanism at the interface of physiology and transcriptomics. The results showed that excessive sodium caused a 22.3 % increase in oxalic acid secretion and a 147.6 % increase in H+-ATPase activity at the 4 h fermentation compared to the control. Meanwhile, a 13.1 % reduction in energy charge level and a 15.2 % decline in NADH content were found, which implied the effects on carbon metabolism and redox balance. In addition, transcriptomic analysis revealed that excessive sodium altered the gene expression profiles related to ATPase, hydrolase, and oxidoreductase, as well as pathways like glyoxylate metabolism, and transmembrane transport. These findings gained insights into the metabolic regulation of A. niger response to environmental stress and provided theoretical guidance for the construction of sodium-tolerant A. niger for industrial application.

The Plasma Membrane H + ATPase CsPMA2 Regulates Lipid Droplet Formation, Appressorial Development and Virulence in Colletotrichum siamense. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:17337. [PMID: 38139168 PMCID: PMC10743824 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242417337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
Plasma membrane H+-ATPases (PMAs) play an important role in the pathogenicity of pathogenic fungi. Lipid droplets are important storage sites for neutral lipids in fungal conidia and hyphae and can be used by plant pathogenic fungi for infection. However, the relationship between plasma membrane H+-ATPase, lipid droplets and virulence remains unclear. Here, we characterized a plasma membrane H+-ATPase, CsPMA2, that plays a key role in lipid droplet formation, appresorial development and virulence in C. siamense. Deletion of CsPMA2 impaired C. siamense conidial size, conidial germination, appressorial development and virulence but did not affect hyphal growth. ΔCsPMA2 increased the sensitivity of C. siamense to phytic acid and oxalic acid. CsPMA2 was localized to lipids on the plasma membrane and intracellular membrane. Deletion of CsPMA2 significantly inhibited the accumulation of lipid droplets and significantly affected the contents of some species of lipids, including 12 species with decreased lipid contents and 3 species with increased lipid contents. Furthermore, low pH can inhibit CsPMA2 expression and lipid droplet accumulation. Overall, our data revealed that the plasma membrane H+-ATPase CsPMA2 is involved in the regulation of lipid droplet formation and affects appressorial development and virulence in C. siamense.
