Predicted metabolic roles and stress responses provide insights into candidate phyla Hydrogenedentota and Sumerlaeota as members of the rare biosphere in biofilms from various environments.
Environmental Microbiology Reports 2024 January 10
Pustular mats from Shark Bay, Western Australia, host complex microbial communities bound within an organic matrix. These mats harbour many poorly characterized organisms with low relative abundances (<1%), such as candidate phyla Hydrogenedentota and Sumerlaeota. Here, we aim to constrain the metabolism and physiology of these candidate phyla by analyzing two representative metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) from a pustular mat. Metabolic reconstructions of these MAGs suggest facultatively anaerobic, chemoorganotrophic lifestyles of both organisms and predict that both MAGs can metabolize a diversity of carbohydrate substrates. Ca. Sumerlaeota possesses genes involved in degrading chitin, cellulose and other polysaccharides, while Ca. Hydrogenedentota can metabolize cellulose derivatives in addition to glycerol, fatty acids and phosphonates. Both Ca. phyla can respond to nitrosative stress and participate in nitrogen metabolism. Metabolic comparisons of MAGs from Shark Bay and those from various polyextreme environments (i.e., hot springs, hydrothermal vents, subsurface waters, anaerobic digesters, etc.) reveal similar metabolic capabilities and adaptations to hypersalinity, oxidative stress, antibiotics, UV radiation, nitrosative stress, heavy metal toxicity and life in surface-attached communities. These adaptations and capabilities may account for the widespread nature of these organisms and their contributions to biofilm communities in a range of extreme surface and subsurface environments.
