<i>IPD3</i>, a master regulator of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis, affects genes for immunity and metabolism of non-host <i>Arabidopsis</i> when restored long after its evolutionary loss

PLANT MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 114(2).

By: E. Hornstein n, M. Charles n, M. Franklin n, B. Edwards n, S. Vintila n, M. Kleiner n, H. Sederoff n

author keywords: Mycorrhizae; Symbiosis; Non-mycorrhizal; Genetic engineering; Systems biology; Plant transcriptomics
TL;DR: Interestingly, the effect of expressing IPD3 in Arabidopsis and knocking it out in Lotus was strongest in plants not exposed to AMF, which is revealed to be due to changes in IPD3 genotype causing a transcriptional state, which partially mimics AMF exposure in non-inoculated plants.

By: M. Kleiner n, A. Kouris*, M. Jensen n, D. Grace n, Y. Liu*, A. Korenek n, N. Tolić*, T. Sachsenberg* ...

TL;DR: This work presents an ultra-sensitive, high-throughput protein-based stable isotope probing approach (Protein-SIP), which cuts cost for labeled substrates by ∼90% as compared to other SIP and Protein-Sip approaches and thus enables isotope labeling experiments on much larger scales and with higher replication.

Environmental Viscosity Modulates Interbacterial Killing during Habitat Transition

MBIO, 11(1).

By: L. Speare*, S. Smith*, F. Salvato n, M. Kleiner n & A. Septer*

author keywords: Aliivibrio fischeri; aggregation; competition; proteomics; type VI secretion
MeSH headings : Aliivibrio fischeri / genetics; Aliivibrio fischeri / physiology; Animals; Decapodiformes / microbiology; Ecosystem; Gene Expression Regulation, Bacterial; Genotype; Proteomics; Seawater; Symbiosis; Type VI Secretion Systems / genetics; Type VI Secretion Systems / metabolism; Viscosity
TL;DR: How environmental viscosity impacts T6SS-mediated competition by using a liquid hydrogel medium that mimics the viscous host environment is investigated and shows that competitor cells form aggregates under host-like conditions, thereby facilitating the contact required for killing, and reveals how V. fischeri regulates a key competitive mechanism in response to the physical environment.

Metabolic differences between symbiont subpopulations in the deep-sea tubewormRiftia pachyptila

Hinzke, T., Kleiner, M., Meister, M., Schlüter, R., Hentschker, C., Pané-Farré, J., … Markert, S. (2020, April 9).

By: T. Hinzke*, M. Kleiner n, M. Meister*, R. Schlüter*, C. Hentschker*, J. Pané-Farré*, P. Hildebrandt*, H. Felbeck* ...

TL;DR: Metaproteomic analysis and statistical evaluation strongly suggest that Riftia symbiont cells of different sizes represent metabolically dissimilar stages of a physiological differentiation process, and proposes that this division of labor between smaller and larger symbionts benefits the productivity of the symbiosis as a whole.
