▼ The main goal of this thesis was to design and implement a tool that would be able to classify the sequences of the
16S rRNA gene into taxonomic categories using the properties of the
16S rRNA gene. The created tool analyzes all input sequences simultaneously, which differs from common classification approaches, which classify input sequences individually. This tool relies on the fact that bacteria contain several copies of the
16S rRNA gene, which may differ in sequence. The main contribution of this work is design, implementation and evaluation of the capabilities of this tool. Experiments have shown that the proposed tool is able to identify the corresponding bacteria for smaller datasets and determine the correct ratios of their abundances. However, with larger datasets, the state space becomes very large and fragmented, which requires further improvements in order for it to search the state space in an efficient way.

▼ A microbiota intestinal humana desempenha papel essencial no organismo saudável, pois sintetiza vitaminas, influencia no desenvolvimento e maturação do sistema imune da mucosa intestinal, além de exercer importante função protetora, competindo por nutrientes e receptores com bactérias patogênicas. A colonização desta microbiota se inicia na criança recém-nascida e alcança estabilidade em torno do segundo ano de vida, com consequência para a saúde da criança e do adulto. As diferenças na composição da microbiota estão relacionadas a diferentes níveis de contaminação ambiental e de diferentes fatores endógenos. O objetivo do nosso estudo foi analisar a microbiota fecal de crianças com idade entre 2 dias a 1 ano de idade, que vivem em baixas condições socioeconômicas em São Paulo, Brasil. Foram coletadas amostras de fezes de crianças saudáveis, nos seguintes pontos pós-nascimento: 2º e 7º dias, 1 mês, 3 meses, 6 meses e 1 ano de vida. O DNA bacteriano foi extraído diretamente a partir das amostras de fezes e as bibliotecas 16S rRNA foram construídas utilizando 2 iniciadores bactéria-específicos. Os clones foram selecionados aleatoriamente, parcialmente sequenciados e analisados com base em bibliotecas de gene 16S rRNA. Os principais grupos filogenéticos identificados foram Escherichia, Clostridium, Streptococcus e Bacteroides, do 1º ao 30º dia de vida. A partir do 3º mês, Streptococcus e bactérias não cultiváveis, além do gênero Escherichia, ganharam relevância na microbiota. Estes dados, em conjunto com as informações nutricionais, intercorrências clínicas e ambientais, sugerem a influência da contaminação ambiental e interpessoal no aumento da complexidade na composição da microbiota fecal. Essa abordagem molecular permitiu a análise da microbiota fecal do grupo selecionado, encontrando perfil bacteriano diferente do que é descrito nos países desenvolvidos.
The human intestinal microbiota plays essential role in healthy body since it synthesizes vitamins, influences on the development and maturation of the immune system of the intestinal mucosa. Furthermore, it also plays an important protective function competing for nutrients and receptors with pathogenic bacteria. The colonization of this microbiota starts in the newborn child and achieves stability around the second year of life, with consequence for the health of children and adults. The differences in the microbiota composition are related to different levels of environmental contamination and different endogenous factors. The aim of our study was to analyze the fecal microbiota of children ranging from 2º days to 1º year old living in low socioeconomic status in São Paulo, Brazil. We collected fecal samples of healthy children at the following points after birth: 2º e 7º days, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and one year of life. Bacterial DNA was extracted directly from stool samples, and the 16S rRNA libraries were made using 2 bacterium-specific primers. The clones were randomly selected, and partially sequenced and analyzed based on 16S rRNA libraries. The…

▼ Spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) is a frequent and severe complication of cirrhotic patients with ascites. It was defined for the first time in 1971 by Conn as a bacterial infection of the ascitic fluid (AF) in the absence of a focal contiguous source. The key mechanism of the pathogenesis of SBP is bacterial translocation (BT), defined as the passage of viable gut flora through the intestinal barrier to extra-luminal sites. It is τhe most frequent infectious complication in patient with cirrhosis. SBP is diagnosed on the basis of PMN cell counts equal or greater than 250 cells/mm3 in AF, regardless the result of the ascites culture. It is known that, in a high proportion of SBP patients, cultures of AF remain negative, probably due to the relative low concentration of bacteria in ascitic fluid (1 bacteria/ml). In general practice, ascites culture is negative in approximately 60% of SBP patients, despite the inoculation of ascites directly into blood culture bottles (AF vial cultures) at the bedside. Molecular assays have been widely used for detection of microorganisms directly to clinical specimens.In this study, we assessed the value of broad range 16S rRNA PCR applied either directly to ascitic fluid or to the ascitic fluid vial cultures, compared to the standard of care that includes ascitic fluid vial culture.A total of 150 ascitic fluids (39 non portal hypertension and 111 portal hypertension) obtained from individual patients, were collected. SBP was diagnosed in 32 of them. Ten ml of each ascitic fluid were inoculated into blood culture bottles at the patients’ bedside and were inoculated for a period of 14 days. In addition, 10 ml of ascitic fluid were also obtained for molecular analysis. Broad range 16S rRNA PCR was applied directly to ascitic fluid and to the ascitic fluid vial cultures after the incubation period. PCR amplicons were sequenced in both directions and were compared with those submitted to GenBank and EMBL, using the BLAST algorithm.Four out 32 AF vial cultures (12.5%) were found to be positive for Escherichia coli. The application of 16S rRNA PCR directly to AF detected only one of the four positive samples [sensitivity 25%, specificity 100%, positive predictive value (PPV) 100%, negative predictive value (NPV) 90.32%]. However, the application of 16S rRNA PCR to AF vial cultures after 14 days of incubation correctly identified all the positive samples, including one more that was positive for Brucella mellitensis (sensitivity 100%, specificity 80%, PPV 80%, NPV 100%). The elongation of the incubation period of the AF vial cultures, combined with the use of 16S rRNA in negative vials, increases the possibility of identifying the causative agents of SBP and could be applied in the clinical laboratory.

▼ The formation of diverticula, or herniations of the colonic mucosa and submucosa through the bowel wall, is prevalent in the sigmoid colon of aged individuals in Western countries. Individuals with diverticula have diverticulosis, a condition which is usually asymptomatic. However, in 4-25% of individuals with diverticulosis, inflammation of the diverticula results in diverticulitis. Acute diverticulitis is commonly treated with empiric antibiotics and increased dietary fiber. Despite the high prevalence of disease in the United States, the pathophysiology of diverticulitis is largely unknown. Previous data suggests that the immune system may play a role in diverticulitis pathogenesis. A key function of the intestinal immune system is to discriminate pathogens from commensal microorganisms. Microbial dysbiosis contributes to the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease; however, whether the microbiome is also involved in diverticulitis pathogenesis is unknown. Therefore, we hypothesized that deregulation of the innate immune system contributes to diverticulitis pathogenesis by promoting a dysbiotic microbial ecosystem.
To test this hypothesis, we used
RNA-seq, an unbiased and genome-wide approach, to globally survey the intestinal transcriptome of full-thickness sigmoid colon tissue collected adjacent to areas chronically affected by diverticulitis compared to controls. Gene Ontology pathway analysis found increased expression of genes associated with the innate immune response. Expanding on these findings, we identified an increased number of macrophages expressing the scavenger receptor CD163L1 in diverticulitis tissues. In diverticulitis patients, CD163L1+ macrophages localized at the sub-epithelium and co-expressed the chemokine CXCL10. Furthermore, heightened serum CXCL10 was found in diverticulitis patients relative to controls. As the intestinal microbiome influences immune homeostasis, bacterial
16S rRNA and fungal ITS sequencing was performed from chronically diseased tissue and adjacent tissue in diverticulitis patients. We found distinct microbial interactions segregated chronically diseased tissue from adjacent tissue within the same colonic segments.
The findings from this dissertation propose that deregulation of the innate immune response to an altered microbial ecosystem results in chronic inflammation and the development of diverticulitis. There are currently no prognostic or diagnostic biomarkers or targeted therapeutic options for diverticulitis; thus this work may help drive development of such targets within molecular pathways of disease relevance.

▼ RNA is a crucial biological molecule that is critical for protein synthesis. Significant research has been done on folding algorithms for
RNA, in particular the
16S rRNA of bacteria and archaea. Rather than modifying current works on these folding algorithms, this report ventures into the pioneering works for data mining the same
16S rRNA. Initial works were based on a single complex helix across seven organisms. However, classification analysis proved to be inaccurate due to severe multicollinearity in the data set. A secondary data mining analysis was done on the entire
RNA sequence of the same seven organisms, and was successfully used to sequentially categorically predict the characteristic of a given nucleotide in the
RNA sequence.

▼ A sepse bacteriana constitui a causa mais frequente de óbitos neonatais, e seu diagnóstico é complexo devido à inexistência de um teste laboratorial definitivo. O presente estudo desenvolveu uma técnica de amplificação quantitativa (qPCR) do gene
16S rDNA de bactérias tanto para o diagnóstico de sepse neonatal, quanto para avaliar se a qPCR é capaz de monitorar o tratamento. Para ser recrutado o RN deveria apresentar ao menos dois sinais/sintomas sugestivos de sepse, e dois parâmetros laboratoriais alterados. Amostras de sangue foram colhidas no tempo zero (suspeita de sepse), 48 horas e sete dias após o início da antibioticoterapia. Foram analisados 73 RN (21 RNT e 52 RNPT) com suspeita de sepse neonatal. A hemocultura foi positiva em 32 RN (43,8% - sepse confirmada) e negativa em 41 (56,2% - sepse clínica), enquanto a qPCR foi positiva em 65 RN (89%) e negativa em oito casos (11%). Dentre os 32 RN com sepse confirmada (11 RNT e 21 RNPT), neutrofilia foi encontrada em 22 (68,75%), CRP elevada em 21 (65,62%), plaquetopenia em 15 (46,87%) e leucopenia em 14 (43,75%). Foram analisadas 200 amostras dos 73 casos suspeitos, considerando os três tempos de coleta, resultando em 36 hemoculturas positivas (18,0%) e 135 qPCR positivas (67,5%). Nas 36 hemoculturas positivas houve 38 isolamentos. Bactérias Gram-positivas foram encontradas em 32 amostras (84,21%) e Gram-negativas em seis (15,78%). Staphylococcus coagulase negativa predominou dentre as Gram-positivas (75,0%). No grupo de 32 RN com sepse confirmada a qPCR foi positiva em 30 (30/32 - 93,7%). Em 14 casos (47%) a qPCR antecipou o diagnóstico de sepse quando comparada à hemocultura e foi positiva no tempo zero em 22 casos (68,75%), enquanto a hemocultura foi positiva em 11. Dos 41 casos de sepse clínica, a qPCR foi positiva em 35 (85,4%); em 26 casos (74,3%) já no tempo zero. O teste de McNemar encontrou discordância entre os resultados das hemoculturas e qPCR (p<0,0001, IC de 95%), indicando superioridade da qPCR. Houve nove óbitos na casuística, todos com hemocultura e qPCR positiva. Em seis dos nove óbitos somente a terceira hemocultura foi positiva, enquanto a qPCR foi positiva em cinco casos já no tempo zero e não negativou em seis casos. A qPCR empregou a técnica de touchdown, com temperaturas de annealing decaindo de 66 a 62 °C, limiar de detecção entre 1-10 UFC/mL. As cargas bacterianas foram em geral baixas (< 50 UFC/mL) mesmo nos casos com sepse confirmada e óbitos, porém quando as medianas das cargas bacterianas no tempo zero dos grupos com sepse confirmada (37,10 UFC/mL) e sepse clínica (24,49 UFC/mL) foram comparadas, foi encontrada uma diferença estatisticamente significante (p=0,0402). O estudo concluiu que a qPCR é capaz de detectar mais casos de sepse neonatal que a hemocultura, antecipando o diagnóstico na maior parte deles. Em relação à monitorização do tratamento, a qPCR apresentou associação com o sucesso ou falha terapêutica, negativou em casos que tiveram evolução favorável, não negativou na maior parte dos óbitos, porém há necessidade de…

▼ Abstract: The knowledge concerning microbial diversity associated with mine environments is limited, despite the importance that some microorganisms can have on environmental bioremediation and bioleaching process. Additionally, microorganisms that live in inhospitable conditions, such as different mine environments, have attracted growing interest because they could have enzymes with industrial applications. In this way, structural and functional biodiversity analysis in mine environments is an important issue to understand the structure and complexity of the microbial communities in extreme environments. The present work shows a microbial diversity analyses in some cooper mine environments of Sossego Mine localized in Canaã dos Carajás mineral province, Pará state, Brazil. The bacterial taxonomic composition associated with Sossego cooper mine: slopes (geotechnical structures) and surrounding drainage of Sossego and Sequeirinho deposits was evaluated using pyrosequencing of
16S rRNA gene. The results indicated slope bacterial community differs from surrounding drainage and organic matter content and higher water availably were the main factors of these differences. The foremost taxons accountable by those differences were Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi, Gammaproteobacteria and Firmicutes. Sixty four bacteria were isolated using culture-dependent methods from SO5, SO6, SO7 and SO9 samples. These bacteria were identified and evaluated concerning the capability of enzyme production (hydrolase, betalactamase, monooxygenase and sulphoxidases) and compounds (siderophore, biosurfactants and antimicrobials). It was identified bacteria related with the followed genera: Acidovorax, Acinetobacter, Brevundimonas, Cupriavidus, Curtobacterium, Kocuria, Lysinibacillus, Pseudomonas, Roseomonas, Ralstonia, Stenotrophomonas and Bacillus, the last one showed 43 isolates. In relation with functional screening, 95% of bacteria were capable to produce siderophores, 58% to produce biosurfactants, 69% betalactamases, 50% antimicrobials, 53% proteases, 75% sterases, 20% monooxygenases and three strains (SO5.4, SO5.9 and SO6.2) exhibited selective oxidation for organic sulphides. Iron oxidizing microorganism consortia were obtained from drainage samples and were tested according with its ability for bioleaching of chalcopyrite. The consortia obtained from SO5, SO6, and SO7 samples were more efficient than Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans LR regarding bioleaching of copper from chalcopyrite. The identification of microorganism presented in the consortia was performed using DGGE technique and the more evident bands were classified as Bacillus sp., Delftia sp., Phenylobacterium sp. and Methylobacterium sp. The bacterial community in Sossego cooper mine was diverse and complex. These results showed a microbiota inventory in distinct mine environments and enzymes and compounds obtained from those bacteria could be used in new processes and technologies that allow to recovery metals as bioleaching, bioremediation or others industrial applications

▼ Abstract: Potato scab is a widespread disease in growing areas in Brazil, becoming a limiting factor in potato production. This disease affects potato quality due to injuries on the tuber surface decreasing its market value or precluding its commercialization. Several species of the genus Streptomyces causing potato scab are known and the survey of pathogenic species present in the Brazilian producing areas is the most important factor for performing management measures. This study aimed to characterize 57 strains of Streptomyces, considered possible new species associated with potato scab in Brazil, through polyphasic taxonomy. The morphological, biochemical, pathogenic (nec1, tomA and txtAB genes and in vitro pathogenicity tests on radishes and potatoes) and molecular characterization (species-specific primers for S. acidiscabies, S. scabiei and S. turgidiscabies, PCR-RFLP of atpD gene, multilocus sequence analysis of atpD, gyrB, recA, rpoB and trpB genes and
16S rRNA gene sequence analysis) of the strains were performed. Using PCR-RFLP of atpD gene technique and sequence analysis of atpD and rpoB genes, the strains were initially separated into 20 genetic groups (G1 to G20). These groups showed high heterogeneity in their spore chains morphology, pigment production and the appearance and color of the colonies and spores, as well as the utilization of different carbon sources. From a total of 57 strains evaluated, 24 (35.3%) showed presence of the three pathogenicity genes, six (8.8%) showed no amplification of the genes and 38 (55.9%) showed absence of one or more genes. All strains were pathogenic on radish causing symptoms of necrosis, radial swelling and/or stunting of shoot and roots, however, they showed differences in virulence level. The most virulent strains were evaluated in pathogenicity test on potato tubers slices and the aggressiveness of the strains, determined by the extent and depth of necrosis, was dependent on the cultivar of potato used, and all evaluated varieties were susceptible. The phylogenetic relationship of the strains has been established with respect to the main species of plant pathogenic Streptomyces and most groups were allocated in different branches and/or with low sequence similarity values. G11 group was closely related to S. scabiei and its genomospecies and G7 was allocated with S. turgidiscabies/S. reticuliscabiei, but they showed no amplification in experiments using species-specific primers and different morphological features were observed. The molecular data, associated with morphological, biochemical and pathogenic characteristics of the strains, allowed confirmation that these genetic groups represent at least 34 new species of phytopathogenic Streptomyces in Brazil. The polymorphisms in the atpD gene sequences allowed the development of species-specific primers for S. caviscabies/S. setonii (Cavis1F/Cavis4R) and S. scabiei (ScADF2/ScADR1). The specificity of these primers was confirmed by amplification experiments using DNA from other Streptomyces species causing…

▼ Symbiosis between insects and prokaryotes are recognized as essential to the survival of these invertebrates. The bacterial community in the gastrointestinal tract of termites, social insects, is diverse and the function of this microbiota has been characterized. This study investigated the molecular diversity of prokaryotes in soil of the mound and its agent Cornitermes cumulans using a cultivation-independent approach. Thus, samples of the termite nest soil (SC), reference soil (SR) and termite (CP) - Cornitermes cumulans - were collected. The amplicon of the 16S rRNA gene of bacteria was used for the ARDRA fingerprint analysis of the SC, SR and CP samples and the construction of libraries from SC and CP. Moreover, the construction of 16S rDNA library from archaea was obtained using SC sample. Analysis of restriction profiles of 16S rRNA gene revealed that bacterial communities in SC, SR and CP were different, although SR and CP communities were more similar. Phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed a high diversity of bacterial communities in SC, detecting 67 OTUs which were affiliated to ten phyla: Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes, Planctomycetes, Bacteroidetes, Verrucomicrobia, Chloroflexi, Gemmatimonadetes and Bacteria_incertae_sedis. On the other hand, the community of archaea of the sample SC showed that only two OTUs affiliated to the phylum Chrenoarcheota. The bacterial community of Cornitermes cumulans presented eight OTUs which were affiliated with four phyla Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Actinobacteria and Synergistetes. Identified bacterial phyla, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes and Actinobacteria were common to both communities in SC and CP. The Shannon-Weaver and Simpson indices and the ACE and Chao1 values showed that SC and CP had high bacterial diversity while SC had a low diversity of archaea. Thus, the results reveal bacterial diversity, yet unexplored, in the soil of termite mound and Cornitermes cumulans.
A simbiose entre insetos e procariotos é reconhecida como sendo essencial para a sobrevivência desses invertebrados. A microbiota existente no trato gastrointestinal de cupins, insetos sociais, é diversa e a sua função vem sendo caracterizada. Este estudo pesquisou a diversidade molecular de procariotos em solo do cupinzeiro e de seu agente Cornitermes cumulans, utilizando uma abordagem independente de cultivo. Assim amostras de solo do cupinzeiro (SC), do solo de referência (SR) e do cupim (CP) - Cornitermes cumulans - foram coletadas. O amplicon do gene de rRNA 16S de bactérias foi usado para a análise do fingerprint ARDRA das amostras SC, SR e CP e para a construção de bibliotecas de clones de SC e CP. Além disso, a construção da biblioteca de clones do gene de rRNA 16S de arqueias foi obtida para a amostra SC. A análise do perfil de restrição do gene de rRNA 16S revelou que as comunidades bacterianas de SC, SR e de CP foram distintas, sendo as comunidades SR e CP mais similares. A análise filogenética utilizando o gene de rRNA 16S revelou uma alta…

▼ We applied culture-independent, next-generation sequencing (NGS) high throughput pyrosequencing, to characterize the microbial communities associated with near shore seawater in Broward County, FL. These waters flow over coral reef communities, which are part of the Florida reef tract, and are close to shore where bathers frequent. Through a close partnership with the NOAA FACE program, 38 total seawater samples were taken from 6 distinct locales -the Port Everglades and Hillsboro Inlets, Hollywood and Broward wastewater outfalls, and the associated reef waters-over the course of one year. Tagged 16S rRNA amplicons were used to generate longitudinal taxonomic profiles of marine bacteria and archaea for one year. 236,322 rRNA quality checked sequences with an average length of 250 base pairs were generated. Sequences were found to vary significantly due to seasonal effects, but depth showed no significant correlation. The most abundant taxa among these samples included Synechococcus, Pelagibacteraceae (SAR11), Bacteroidetes, various Proteobacteria, and Archaea, such as Thermoplasmata. Other taxa found, albeit in low numbers, were the Thiotrichales, and some members of which can indicate pollution, the Alteromonadales, a biofilm forming order. Inlet sequences were found to be significantly different from the outfall and reef communities by various analyses. Unifrac analysis of microbial beta diversity showed a significant clustering pattern for the inlet samples. Precipitation during the three days before and after sampling was low meaning there was little to no high terrestrial runoff during the sampling days. Higher levels of turbidity were seen at the inlet sites and significantly affected the growth of surface colonizing and biofilm forming bacterial families such at the Rhodobacteraceae and Flavobacteriaceae. This study represents one of the first to apply NGS analyses for a deep analysis of microbial community dynamics in these S. Florida waters.

▼ The aim of this PhD project is to evaluate the presence and the role of viruses in food related environment with particular attention on the mobilization of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). During the last three years it has been investigated samples from different food related environments in order to fully characterize the respective microbial and viral communities with a focus on the identification of ARGs in virome and microbiomes. Water from aquaculture was the first sample analyzed (i) being a matrix that has a strong direct contact with the respective food; secondly, it has been analyzed water from Lambro river (ii) since it is used in the field’s irrigation so it directly came in contact with cereals and vegetables. Last project involved the analysis of air surrounding different moment of cheesemaking production (iii). Once again the viruses present in the air could deposit on the surface of the food and they can be ingested by humans. Shotgun metagenomic sequencing was used to study both microbes and viruses, while
16S rRNA profiling analysis completed the characterization of the bacterial community.
The three different projects showed how antibiotic resistance genes are wide spread in the viromes of different environments irrespective of the presence of associated anthropic activities. In this context, we hypothesize that the release of antibiotics molecules in the environment by the microbiota is a driving force able to maintain ARGs in the microbiome and, consequently, mobilize them in the virome. In addition, we should consider the effect of the intense environmental release of antibiotics by humans activities. For these reasons this novel approach even if really useful to collect a high amount of information on the sample, is insufficient to discriminate how ARGs have mobilized to the virome and from the virome to the microbiome. In this context, the development of mesocosms can be the turning point since this system let us to work with complex environmental samples but focusing the attention only at one variable at time as, for example, the supplementation of defined amount of antibiotics.

▼ La salud oral, que está fuertemente influenciada por la microbiota oral, ejerce un papel significativo en la salud general. Las comunidades bacterianas orales contienen especies que promueven estados de salud, mientras que otras contribuyen a la enfermedad. Conocer qué especies están presentes y cómo se componen las comunidades microbianas en estados de salud es el primer paso para comprender qué cambios pueden llevar a la enfermedad. El tipo de muestras a utilizar para este tipo de estudios, bien con objetivos epidemiológicos o etiológicos, es crucial.
La saliva representa un medio fácil y no invasivo de obtención de muestras que contengan bacterias orales de varias localizaciones como las mucosas y la placa supra y subgingival, pero esta puede ser tomada por distintos procedimientos, como saliva estimulada con chicles estériles de parafina, saliva no estimulada con puntas de papel en suelo de boca, “spitting method”, enjuagues con solución salina estéril, etc.
Los componentes salivales pueden jugar un rol en la susceptibilidad y desmineralización del esmalte, remineralización y resistencia a la caries dental, la cuál se produce al alterarse el equilibrio ecológico de los biofilms microbianos orales. Los cambios en la composición salival pueden producir alteraciones de la microflora oral en el desarrollo de la caries, y viceversa. En estudios epidemiológicos previos, se ha tomado saliva no estimulada de forma habitual como muestra representativa del ecosistema oral.
El objetivo principal de la tesis fue estudiar la microbiota oral a partir de muestras de saliva no estimulada mediante pirosecuenciación de productos de PCR del gen
16S rRNA, y determinar la variabilidad interindividual entre los distintos estadíos de caries dental, y consecuentemente, de salud bucodental.
Se seleccionaron 110 individuos de 12 años de edad explorados en la Encuesta de Salud Bucodental de la Comunidad Valenciana del año 2010, de forma aleatoria y siendo esta muestra representativa de la población, organizados en seis grupos según su estado de salud oral siguiendo el índice de caries ICDAS (Internacional Caries Detection and Assessment System). Se tomaron muestras de saliva no estimulada del suelo de la boca con puntas de papel depositadas en suelo de boca. Al mismo tiempo, se recogieron muestras de saliva estimulada con chicles de parafina, de las cuáles se seleccionaron 10 muestras para compararlas con las de saliva no estimulada del mismo paciente.
Se realizó la extracción de ADN de las muestras; amplificaciones por PCR, con cebadores universales modificados del gen
16S RNA para bacterias (27F y 533R) a los que se les añadió previamente los adaptadores A y B del sistema Titanium del pirosecuenciador FLX de 454-Roche, permitiendo la unión de los amplicones obtenidos a las microbolas de captura así como su secuenciación. Cada muestra se amplificó mediante un cebador forward que contenía una secuencia identificativa distinta de 8 pares de bases, la cuál servía de “código de barras” para separar las distintas muestras. Ello permitió…

▼ Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) are small (<3mm)
blood feeding flies. These flies are biological vectors of viruses,
protozoa and filarial nematodes affecting birds, humans, and other
animals. Among the viruses transmitted those causing bluetongue
(BT), African horse sickness (AHS) and epizootic haemorrhagic
disease (EHD) are of major veterinary significance. Culicoides
(Avaritia) imicola Kieffer, a proven vector of both AHS and BT
viruses, is the most abundant and wide spread livestock-associated
Culicoides species in South Africa. Field isolations of virus and
oral susceptibility studies, however, indicated that a second
Avaritia species, C. bolitinos Meiswinkel may be a potential vector
of both BT virus (BTV) and AHS virus (AHSV). Differences in oral
susceptibility, which are under genetic control, of populations
from different geographical areas to viruses may be an indication
of genetic differences between these populations, which may be the
result of limited contact between these populations. A good
knowledge of the distribution, spread and genetic structure of the
insect vector is essential in understanding AHS or BT disease
epidemiology. In the present study, an effort was made to gather
field specimens of both C. imicola and C. bolitinos from different
areas within their natural distribution in South Africa. The aim
was to partially sequence two mitochondrial genes from these
specimens and to analyse the sequence data making use of
phylogenetic trees to clarify the genetic relationships between
individuals or groups collected from geographically distinct sites.
The two species were collected from four geographically separated
areas in South Africa viz. Gauteng Province, Eastern Cape Province,
Western Cape Province as well as the Free State Province. DNA was
extracted from a total of 120 individual midges of the two
Culicoides species using DNA extraction kits. Extracted DNA was
analysed using PCR, sequencing as well as phylogenetic methods. A
total of 117 mitochondrial DNA COI and 104 mitochondrial
16S
ribosomal
RNA Culidoides</i. sequences were analysed. DNA
sequence polymorphism and phylogenetic relationships of various
groups of C. imicola and C. bolitinos midges were determined. The
results of the phylogenetic analysis of Culicoides populations
using mitochondrial COI gene fragment showed that, at least one
subpopulation of C. imicola and two distinct genotypes of C.
bolitinos species do exist in South Africa, and further analysis is
necessary. This study showed that COI has the potential to separate
Culicoides midges based on their geography

▼ Microcistinas são potentes hepatotoxinas e promotoras de tumores encontradas em águas doces que causam riscos à saúde pública e, portanto, representam um sério problema para as estações de tratamento de água. O gênero de cianobactéria Microcystis é o mais conhecido produtor dessas toxinas e também o mais comumente encontrado formando florações em reservatórios de água usados para abastecimento público. Entretanto, algumas bactérias são capazes de utilizar essas toxinas como fonte de carbono o que pode contribuir para a sua remoção da água. Neste estudo foi avaliado o potencial de degradação da microcistina-XR (MCYST-XR) por bactérias heterotróficas isoladas de um sistema de abastecimento público de água da cidade de Piracicaba-SP. A cianotoxina MCYST-XR avaliada foi isolada da linhagem Microcystis aeruginosa NPLJ-4 e purificada. Culturas puras de 35 bactérias isoladas do sistema de abastecimento de água foram testadas. Para isso, cada bactéria foi inoculada em meio mínimo de sais contendo 60 g mL-1 de MCYST-XR purificada e após 144 horas a degradação da toxina foi avaliada por análise em LC-MS/MS. Os picos indicando a massa da microcistina-XR (m/z 1037) não foram detectados no meio de cultura de seis bactérias, as quais foram identificadas pelo sequenciamento quase completo do gene de RNAr 16S como pertencentes aos gêneros Pseudomonas sp., Sphingomonas sp., Microbacterium sp., Agromyces sp., Bacillus sp. e Acinetobacter sp. Este é o primeiro relato de uma linhagem de Acinetobacter capaz de degradar MCYST. A cinética de biodegradação da MCYST-XR mostrou redução de 80% em 72 horas, período em que as bactérias apresentaram o máximo crescimento. A presença do gene mlrA codificante da enzima microcistinase envolvida no metabolismo da microcistina foi avaliada nos genomas dos seis isolados bacterianos usando iniciadores de PCR específicos. Fragmentos de aproximadamente 800 pb foram amplificados em dois isolados, Bacillus sp.e Microbacterium sp. Ensaios de toxicidade utilizando o cládocero Daphnia similis foram realizados para verificar a efetiva remoção da MCYST-XR e a não formação de subprodutos tóxicos na via de biodegradacão. Os resultados negativos dos bioensaios após 48 horas indicaram a ausência de subprodutos tóxicos na via da degradação.
Microcystins are potent hepatotoxins and tumor promoters found in freshwaters that cause public health risks and thus represent a serious problem for water treatment plants. The cyanobacterium genus Microcystis is the most known toxin-producer and the most common bloom-forming in water reservoirs used for public supply. However, some bacteria are able to use these toxins as carbon source, which can contribute to its removal from water. This study assessed the potential for degradation of microcystin-XR (MCYST-XR) by heterotrophic bacteria isolated from a public water supply system of the city of Piracicaba-SP. The cyanotoxin MCYSTXR evaluated was isolated from Microcystis aeruginosa strain NPLJ-4 and purified. Pure cultures of 35 bacteria isolated from the water supply system…

▼ O tetracloroeteno (PCE), um dos principais contaminantes de águas subterrâneas, é uma molécula recalcitrante, com toxicidade elevada. Processos de biorremediação de água ou solo contaminados com PCE são normalmente limitados pela baixa eficiência de microrganismos sabidamente envolvidos em sua degradação. No entanto, a prospecção de novos microrganismos, mais eficientes na degradação do PCE é uma alternativa para otimizar esses processos. Os objetivos deste estudo foram desenvolver uma técnica de biorremediação utilizando um reator horizontal de leito fixo (RHLF) contendo consórcios de microrganismos eficientes na degradação do PCE, e caracterizar a via de degradação do PCE utilizada pelo consórcio selecionado. Para tanto, amostras de sedimento de dois poços de monitoramento de água foram coletadas de uma metalúrgica com histórico de contaminação com PCE. Os sedimentos foram imobilizados, acondicionados em RHLFs específicos e submetidos a cultivo de enriquecimento em meio mínimo suplementado com PCE. A estrutura das comunidades e a diversidade bacteriana dos RHLFs foram avaliadas e comparadas com as amostras do PM1 e PM2, por PCR-DGGE e sequenciamento de bibliotecas de clones do gene rRNA
16S. Os resultados evidenciaram a seleção de populações bacterianas no RHLF contendo o inóculo do PM1 (In1) após o cultivo de enriquecimento, enquanto no RHLF contendo o inóculo do PM2 (In2), a estrutura da comunidade bacteriana não diferiu daquela observada no PM2. Ensaios de degradação do PCE nos RHLFs, usando cromatografia gasosa associada à espectrometria de massas (CG/EM), mostraram, após 12 horas, uma eficiência de 87 % na degradação do PCE no reator com In1 e 96 % no reator com In2. Foi feito o isolamento e identificação, por sequenciamento do gene rRNA
16S, das bactérias dos RHLFs, sendo identificados 4 isolados do In1, similares a Burkholderia sp., Pseudomonas stutzeri, P. oryzihabitans e Stenotrophomonas maltophilia e 7 isolados do In2, similares a Microbacterium trichotecenenolyticum, S. maltophilia, Klebsiella sp., Exiguobacterium acetylicum, P. oryzihabitans, Acinetobacter junii e Comamonas sp. Compostos orgânicos voláteis nos reatores com In1 e In2 foram analisados por CG/EM, identificando a produção de clorofórmio (TCM) e 1,1,1-tricloroetano (TCA) como produtos da degradação do PCE. Consórcios formados por bactérias isoladas dos reatores In1 (IIn1) e In2 (IIn2) foram imobilizados e acondicionados em RHLFs distintos para avaliar o potencial dos mesmos na degradação do PCE. Após 12 horas, 92 % do PCE foi degradado nos reatores com IIn1 e IIn2, com produção de TCM e TCA. Testes de degradação usando células em suspensão foram conduzidos para avaliar a eficiência de cada isolado na degradação do PCE. O isolado I8 do In2 (I8In2), identificado como Comamonas sp., teve 68 % de eficiência na degradação do PCE. Ensaios com inibidor de monoxigenases do citocromo P-450 (1-aminobenzotriazole) mostraram que a degradação do PCE nos RHLFs, contendo IIn1, IIn2 e I8In2, foram dependentes dessa enzima. Como conclusão, nós identificamos…

▼ Terra Preta Antropogênica (TPA) é um dos tipos de solos mais \"férteisd̈o mundo. A TPA recebe esta denominação por ser encontrada em sítios arqueológicos onde viveram grupos pré-históricos. São pequenas faixas de solos que apresentam altas concentrações de nutrientes, matéria orgânica e encontram-se distribuídas aleatoriamente pela região Amazônica. A verdadeira origem destes solos ainda não está bem esclarecida. Devido à falta de informações sobre sua diversidade bacteriana, este trabalho estudou a diversidade bacteriana em amostras de solos TPA coletadas em duas regiões: Lagoa Balbina - sítio Terra preta (Amazônia Central- Amazonas) e Floresta Nacional de Caxiuanã - sítio arqueológico Mina I (Amazônia Oriental - Pará), através de técnicas moleculares independentes de cultivo. O DNA genômico total das amostras de solo foi extraído e usado como molde em uma reação de PCR utilizando oligonucleotídeos específicos do gene 16S rRNA para o Domínio Bactéria. O produto de PCR amplificado foi clonado no vetor pGEM-T e 980 clones foram selecionados e comparados com o banco de dados de 16S rRNA do RDP II e GenBank (NCBI-EUA). Os resultados apresentaram predominância com microrganismos não-conhecidos representando 41,6 % das seqüências de solo TPA- Balbina, 68,3 % das seqüências de ADJ-Balbina, 84,8% das seqüências de solo TPAMina e 47,7 % das seqüências de ADJ-Mina. O filo mais predominante nas amostras TPABalbina foi Firmicutes, representando 37,1% do total de seqüências analisadas. Os filos em destaque foram Proteobacteria (9,6%), seguidos de Verrucomicrobia (5,6%), Acidobacteria (2,5%), Gemmatimonadetes (2,5%), Actinobacteria (0,5%) e Nitrospira (0,5%). Por outro lado, em ADJ-Balbina destacaram-se os filos Proteobacteria 15,1%, Acidobacteria (12,5%), Firmicutes (2,3%), Nitrospira (1,1%) e Verrucomicrobia (0,8%). Em TPA-Mina, os filos apresentados foram Proteobacteria (6,5%), Acidobacteria (4,7%), Firmicutes (1,4%), Nitrospira (1,1%), Planctomycetes (1,1%) e Verrucomicrobia (0,4%). Contudo, na biblioteca ADJ-Mina verificou a presença dos filos Acidobacteria (27,2%), Proteobacteria (14,2%), Firmicutes (3,8%), Verrucomicrobia (3,8%), Nitrospira (1,3%), Planctomycetes (1,3%), Actinobacteria (0,4%) e Gemmatimonadetes (0,4%). O pH do solo pode ser um dos atributos do solo que pode ter influência direta na diversidade bacteriana dos solos estudados, assim como pode ter efeito uma floresta natural sobre as populações microbianas em seu solo, fato observado na adjacência do solo Terra Preta em Caxiuanã - PA. A estimativa da riqueza de UTOs pelo Bootstrap corroborou diretamente os valores de diversidade obtidos pelos índices de Simpson e Shannon. De um modo geral, uma maior probabilidade de ocorrência de UTOs únicas empregadas pelo estimador Jackknife se correlacionou com uma maior percentagem de baixas frequências de filotipos nas quatro bibliotecas. Os métodos não-paramétricos ACE e Chao1 para a estimativa da riqueza de UTOs também corroboraram com os valores obtidos com o estimador Jackknife.

▼ Port Everglades Inlet is one of the busiest ports in the country and is a point source of pollution to surrounding beaches and offshore corals from heavy boat traffic and urban runoff. Understanding fluctuations of bacterioplankton communities in major port inlets is important due to their impacts on surrounding marine environments. To understand annual microbial fluctuations, the 16s rRNA V4 hypervariable region was sequenced using Illumina high-throughput DNA sequencing technology. Surface samples were taken weekly for one year to generate baseline fluctuations in the microbial community. Total reads of 1.4 million were generated with a final count of 16,384 Operational Taxonomic Units. The dominant phyla were Proteobacteria, Cyanobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria. Pathogenic genera were detected at low abundances during peak shipping and tourist months (November –April). Results indicate significant differences in alpha diversity when comparing microbial communities in August with other times. This was likely caused by low community richness and abundance, and below-average August rainfall levels. Differences in beta diversity were significant when comparing monthly and seasonal changes. Rainfall, temperature, and nutrient trends may have affected microbial composition, specifically during the dry season that was warmer and wetter than historical averages for 2013-2014. Increased nitrogen and phosphorous concentrations were observed in the dry season months of October, December, and January potentially creating optimal bacterial growth conditions. These results can be compared with historical and future data regarding inlet microbial communities to determine underlying baselines of bacterioplankton communities and monitor the health of marine and recreational environments they impact. This study represents the first to characterize at this scale and use Illumina MiSeq technology to analyze water samples from Port Everglades.

▼ Drinking water distribution systems (DWDSs) are dark, wet environments that provide opportunity for microbial biofilm development and long-term occupancy of infrastructure surfaces. Historically, identifications of microorganisms in natural environments have relied on culture-based techniques, which can underestimate the diversity of resident microbial populations. Consequently, information regarding the microbial inhabitants of DWDSs was previously limited to those that were cultivated and observed in the laboratory. Recent technological developments in molecular biology now afford the capability to directly identify organisms in the environment based on their ribosomal
RNA (rRNA) gene sequences, thus circumventing the need to isolate and culture the microbes in laboratory settings.
In this study, I used rRNA sequences to identify microorganisms and investigate microbiological variation within and between samples collected from two DWDSs spatially and over time. Despite differences in the age, pipe composition, source water, and disinfectant residual type, the two DWDSs were shown to be broadly similar to each other in phylogenetic composition. For example, at the phylum level, members of the Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Cyanobacteria dominated both systems. However, the DWDS using chloramine residual consistently contained more taxa, and therefore greater diversity, than the DWDS with chlorine residual. My findings further indicated the rather remarkable stability of the microbial constituents over space and time, with some variability of the abundances of microbial populations among different sample sites within each system.
To expand the results and assess the microbiological similarity of additional DWDS ecosystems, I investigated six other DWDSs from separate geographical locations. All DWDSs that utilized physical water treatment processes accompanied by chemical (chlorine or chloramine) disinfection demonstrated remarkable similarity in microbiological composition. By contrast, samples from a DWDS exempt from physical processing and chemical disinfection were highly dissimilar to samples from all other DWDSs investigated. Notably,
Mycobacterium spp. were identified in all disinfected DWDSs, and were notably absent in all non-chlorinated samples. This study provides the first multi-year, longitudinal, molecular microbiological examination of two DWDSs and includes a broader geographical representation of systems for comparison. These data provide a significant foundation for describing the resident microbiology of DWDSs from a culture-independent, molecular perspective.

▼ Optimizing the production of useful macromolecules from transgenic microorganisms is crucial to biopharmaceutical companies. Improving bacterial growth and replication depends largely on the efficiency of translation, which is rate-limited by initiation. Among the most important interactions between the mRNA translation initiation region (TIR) and the translation machinery is the association between the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence in the TIR and the complementary anti-SD (aSD) sequence which is located within a short unstructured segment that includes the 3’ terminus (3’ TAIL) of the mature 16S rRNA. However, the mature 3’ TAIL has been poorly characterized in the majority of bacteria, rendering optimal SD/aSD pairing unclear in these species.
In light of this, we established a novel strategy to characterize the mature 3’ TAILs of bacterial species that leverages the availability of publically stored RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data. In chapter 2, we devised a RNA-Seq-based approach to successfully recover the experimentally verified 3’ TAIL in E. coli (5’-CCUCCUUA-3’) and resolve inconsistencies surrounding the identity of the 3’ TAIL in Bacillus subtilis. In chapter 3 we improve the method introduced in chapter 2 to clearly and more reliably define the 3’ TAIL termini for 13 bacterial species with available protein abundance data.
Our results reveal considerable heterogeneity in the termini of 3’ TAILs among closely related species and that sites downstream of the canonical CCUCC aSD motif are more important to initiation than previously believed. My research contributes to advance our understanding in microbial translation efficiency in two significant ways: 1) providing an RNA-Seq-based approach to characterize rRNA transcripts, and 2) elucidating optimal recognition between protein-coding genes and the rRNA translation machinery.

▼ O presente trabalho teve como objetivos caracterizar uma coleção de 98 bactérias isoladas de amostras de petróleo e água de formação de reservatórios da Bacia de Campos (RJ) utilizando técnicas de taxonomia molecular e avaliar o potencial de degradação de biomarcadores do petróleo. O sequenciamento e análise filogenética do gene RNAr 16S revelaram Bacillus firmus, megaterium, pumilus, sphaericus, simplex, cereus/B. thuringiensis Marinobacter lutaoensis, Halomonas shengliensis/H. alimentaria/ H.campisalis, Citreicella thiooxidans, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Achromobacter xylosoxidans, Micrococcus luteus, Kocuria rosea, Streptomyces alboniger/S. chartreusis /S. moderatus, Staphylococcus hominis e Staphylococcus pasteuri/S. warneri. Os resultados evidenciaram a preferência pela biotransformação do ácido nonadecanóico e esqualano. A caracterização da microbiota presente nos reservatórios e avaliação do potencial de biodegradação pode contribuir para fornecer subsídios para estudos futuros sobre os mecanismos biológicos responsáveis pela biodegradação do petróleo.
This study is aimed to characterize a collection of 98 bacteria isolated from oil and formation water samples derived from reservoirs of the Campos Basin (RJ) using molecular biology-based techniques and to evaluate the degradation potential of petroleum biomarkers. Further sequencing and phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA genes revealed species of Bacillus firmus, megaterium, pumilus, sphaericus, simplex, cereus/thuringiensis, Marinobacter lutaoensis, Halomonas shengliensis/H. alimentaria/H. campisalis, Citreicella thiooxidans, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia, Achromobacter xylosoxidans, Micrococcus luteus, Kocuria rosea, Streptomyces alboniger/S. chartreusis/S. moderatus, Staphylococcus hominis and Staphylococcus pasteuri/S. warneri. The results showed the preference of bacteria for the biotransformation of nonadecanoic acid and squalane. The characterization of the microbiota associated to reservoirs and the evaluation of their biodegradation potential may provide subsidies for future studies about the biological mechanisms responsible for petroleum biodegradation.

▼ Abstract: The fecal contamination of water resources is the main cause of enteric waterborne diseases all over the world. Traditional indicator methods used in the water microbiological quality assessment are not able to identify fecal contamination source. This work intended to prospect molecular markers in hosts and track them in water samples to identify pollution sources in surface waters in the São Paulo State, Brazil. Two library-dependent methods with E. coli strains isolated from different hosts and water samples were used, a genotypic typing method (E. coli phylogenetic groups) and a phenotypic typing method (MALDI-TOF/MS). A library-independent method using 454 pyrosequencing of hypervariable16S rRNA gene V3 region was used in DNA from feces and water samples. Phylogenetic groups were used as a tool in host classification and correspondence analysis showed feeding habits clusters. The classification of environmental samples revealed higher frequencies of subgroups A1 and B23 in rivers impacted by human pollution sources, while subgroups D1 and D2 were associated with pristine sites, and subgroup B1 with domestic animal sources, indicating their use as a first screening for pollution source identification. A simple classification is proposed based on phylogenetic subgroup distribution using the w-clique metric, enabling differentiation of polluted and unpolluted sites. Protein profiles of E. coli strains isolated from host and water samples were analyzed by MALDI-TOF/MS. Specific host biomarkers were identified and their use was indicated as a potential tool for the source tracking. Validation with E. coli strains isolated from rivers and reservoirs showed that water samples presented markers from different hosts, suggesting these rivers have mixed sources of fecal contamination. Sequencing of the
16S rRNA V3 region in stool samples (human and bovine) and water showed 4296 operational taxonomic units (OTUs). The greatest diversity was observed in samples of cattle feces and the smallest one in the pristine water sample. Firmicutes was the predominant group in samples of human feces, while in the most common bovine feces are the Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes. The interaction network showed that the stool samples had the greatest diversity and, among them, the water sample with human pollution source showed the highest diversity. The LEfSe method was used to identify host biomarkers. As human biomarkers, Actinobacteria, Betaproteobacteria and Firmicutes were identified and for cattle the potential markers are Bacteroidetes, Tenericutes and Spirochaetes. Host-specific markers were identified, but they were not found in water samples suggesting that the used tools either do not have the resolution to identify markers in environmental samples or contamination in water bodies is mixed. Additionally, as the host-specific markers were isolated from non-autochthonous micro-organisms, they could be affected by the environmental adverse effects such as physical-chemical factors and competition with native organisms

▼ Jamaica, one of the many countries of the Commonwealth Caribbean, is known for its rich musical heritage that has made its impact on the international scene. The worldwide recognition of Jamaica's music reflects the creative power of the country's artists and affects many sectors of the island's economy. This has lead to examination and documentation of the musical culture of Jamaica by a number of folklorists and other researchers. Though some research has focused on various aspects of music education in the country, very little research has focused on the secondary level music teacher education programs in Jamaica. The purpose of this study is to examine and document the development of secondary level music teacher training programs in Jamaica from its inception to its present state. It will also highlight aspects of the curricula and the changes over the years.

▼ Heat pasteurization is an effective water treatment to address the emerging plant pathogen issue associated with increased water recycling practices in the ornamental horticulture industry. The current protocol that recommends treating water at 95"C for 30 s, however, faces two major challenges: its energy cost and environmental footprint. We hypothesized that temperature required to inactivate major pathogens in re-circulated water may be substantially lowered from 95"C with extended exposure time. The goal of this study was to test this hypothesis and make this water decontamination technology economically more attractive while reducing its environmental impact. Specific objectives were to (1) examine the effect of water temperature on the survival of Phytophthora and bacterial species, two major groups of plant pathogens in water recycling systems, and (2) elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms by which plant pathogens are killed at those temperatures. Lab assays were performed to determine the survival of zoospores and chlamydospores of P. nicotianae, and oospores of P. pini as well as seven bacterial species after heat treatments at given periods of time. Greenhouse experiments were conducted to determine the applicability of the lab assay data to the real world using annual vinca (Catharanthus roseus) and P. nicotianae as a model system. The results of these studies indicated that the water temperature required to eliminate Phytophthora and bacterial species can be lowered to 48"C from 95"C if treatment time extends to 24 h. Two major steps were taken to elucidate the underlying biological mechanisms. Firstly, a scheme based on the DNA fingerprint and sequence analysis was developed for characterizing bacterial species in irrigation water, after comparing two typing strategies, three sample concentration methods, and evaluating conditions in denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) profiling. Bacterial species detected by culture-dependent and -independent strategies were rather different. The greater bacterial diversity was detected when water samples were concentrated by using both methods than centrifugation or filtration alone. As for DGGE profiling, 40 to 60% denaturant concentrations at 70 V for 16 h revealed the highest bacterial diversity. Secondly, water samples were taken from an irrigation reservoir in a local nursery and analyzed for bacterial diversity following heat treatments at 42 and 48"C. After these heat treatments "-proteobacteria, "-proteobacteria, and Firmicutes became dominant which presents a substantial shift of bacterial community structure compared to those in the control water at 25"C. Among the dominant in treated water were Bacillus, Pseudomonas, Paenibacillus, Brevibacillus, and Lysobacter species, which may have potential biocontrol activities against plant pathogens. This study provided the scientific basis for developing a more energy-efficient and environmentally sound heat pasteurization protocol for water decontamination.

▼ A Mata Atlântica é um importante bioma da costa brasileira, apresenta grande diversidade de plantas e animais, porém, pouco se sabe sobre a diversidade microbiana. Da mesma forma, pouco se sabe sobre o papel funcional desses microrganismos. Vários microrganismos estão envolvidos na ciclagem do nitrogênio na Mata Atlântica, e dentre eles os diazotróficos são de particular interesse, pois contribuem para o aporte direto de nitrogênio nos ecossistemas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a diversidade de bactérias diazotróficas que nodulam leguminosas em duas parcelas permanentes do Parque Estadual da Serra do Mar em diferentes altitudes. Nódulos de raízes foram coletados nas quatro estações do ano. As bactérias foram isoladas do interior dos nódulos, resultando em 105 isolados. A análise de diversidade genética destas bactérias foi feita utilizando-se BOX-PCR e sequenciamento parcial do gene 16S rRNA. A capacidade de nodulação dos isolados foi determinada através da formação de nódulos em caupi (Vignia unguiculata). Os resultados indicaram que há uma diferença na distribuição espacial e temporal dos nódulos nas áreas estudadas. A maior quantidade de nódulos foi encontrada na parcela de Picinguaba, em estações com menores índices pluviométricos. Os isolados apresentaram uma grande diversidade fenotípica, sendo separados em 6 grupos com características culturais semelhantes. Os perfis de BOX-PCR formaram 8 grupos genotípicos com mais de 80% de similaridade, agrupando tanto isolados de Picinguaba quanto de Santa Virgínia. Os perfis dos géis do BOX-PCR apresentaram variação no número e mobilidade das bandas. Os dados foram transformados em uma matriz binária de presença e ausência que possibilitou a análise de agrupamento hierárquicos com 8 grupos genotípicos com mais de 80% de similaridade, agrupando tanto isolados de Picinguaba quanto de Santa Virgínia. Através do sequenciamento parcial de fragmentos de gene rRNA 16S verificou-se que a estrutura das comunidades diazotróficas de Picinguaba e Santa Virgínia não apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significativa, indicando que não há seleção de populações bacterianas especificas nas áreas.Dos isolados testados, 88% apresentaram capacidade de nodular caupi, porém alguns não foram eficientes em promover o crescimento das plantas. Nas duas áreas predominou UTOs filogeneticamente associados ao gênero Paenibacillus nos nódulos, sugerindo que essas bactérias são importantes para nodulação de leguminosas na Mata Atlântica.
The Atlantic Rainforest is a major biome of the Brazilian coast, which harbors great diversity of flora and fauna, but little is known about its microbial diversity. Furthermore, little is known about the functional role of these abundant microorganisms. Several microorganisms are involved in cycling of the Atlantic Rainforests nitrogen, among them the diazotrophs which are of particular interest because they contribute to the direct input of nitrogen to ecosystems. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diversity of legumes nodulating diazotrophs in…

▼ Biological nitrogen fixation by rhizobia in the root nodules of legumes is a significant source of agricultural nitrogen in global crop production systems. The influence of and interaction of factors involved in nodule endophyte selection remain poorly understood. In the present study, the influences of crop rotation (soybean-legume vs. cotton-legume) and recalcitrant soil organic matter (compost amendment) on the relative distribution of endophytic bacteria in the root nodules of greenhouse-grown soybean and lablab were investigated by extracting, amplifying, and sequencing
16S ribosomal
RNA (rRNA) and
nifH genes. Neither preceding crop nor compost amendment were found to have an influence on microsymbiont selection at the level of genus. In both crops and in all treatments,
Bradyrhizobium spp. were the dominant rhizobial symbionts, accounting for 95.9% of all recovered
16S rRNA sequences from root nodules, suggesting strong selection exhibited by both soybean and lablab. Likewise, the genera
Nitrobacter and
Tardiphaga, close relatives of
Bradyrhizobium,
were present in all root nodules, accounting for an average of 2.9% and 1.0% of nodule sequences, respectively. Previously reported non-rhizobial endophytes were present only inconsistently and at low abundances if at all, suggesting that they may not play a significant role in plant growth as nodule endophytes. These findings indicate that the isolation, characterization, and subsequent inoculation of seeds with non-rhizobial species may not be sufficient to establish their role as endophytes. Their relative abundance in the root nodules should be regarded an important means of certifying a suspected endophyte.

▼ The oral cavity is an open ecosystem with
niche-specific microbial colonization. Within a few hours after
birth, bacteria colonize the oral cavity and form complex
communities called biofilms. These biofilms constantly interact
with the host immune system and play an important role in the
maintenance of health. Dysbiotic bacterial communities are
established as the underlying etiology of periodontitis, a disease
that destroys structures tooth-supporting structures and results in
tooth loss. Several factors are known to contribute to an
individual’s susceptibility to periodontitis, notably, smoking and
diabetes, however, the mechanisms by which they increase the risk
for this bacterially induced inflammatory disease have not been
well established. The purpose of this investigation was to examine
the relative contributions of smoking and diabetes to shaping the
subgingival microbiome. Cross-sectional and longitudinal cohort
study designs using were combined with comprehensive systems
biology approach to characterize the composition, functional
characteristics, gene-expression patterns, and structure of the
oral microbial ecosystem in response to these perturbations both in
periodontal health and disease. In vitro models were used to
validate the clinical findings and to explore a biological basis
for the shifts. Smoking, diabetes, and e-cigarettes selectively
enriched for disease-associated species and specific virulence
functions in this ecosystem even in states of clinical health. Each
of these perturbations exerted a unique effect on the microbiome,
in terms of species composition, biofilm architecture and
functional potential, thus enabling us to identify and validate
microbial biomarkers unique to each perturbation. Finally, we
investigated whether the associations between bacterial virulence
and smoking was causal or casual by examining the responses of the
subgingival microbiome to smoking cessation. Quitters demonstrated
a significant shift in microbial composition and function within
two weeks of cessation, while the microbiome of continuous smokers
remained stable over 3 months of observation. Together, these
studies demonstrated that the oral microbiome responds quickly to
smoking and hyperglycemia and that these perturbations enrich these
biomes for oro-pharyngeal pathogens along with increasing the
immuno-inflammatory potential of these communities. This might be
one mechanism by which smoking and diabetes increase susceptibility
to disease.

▼ Abstract: The objective of the present study was to characterize the bacterial communities associated with endodontic infections by use of culture-independent molecular techniques. Overall, 34 intraradicular samples from teeth harboring endodontic infections were evaluated.
16S ribosomal DNA (
16S rDNA) clone library analysis allowed the identification of 2 to 14 bacterial phylotypes (species) per tooth (mean= 9.6), with a total of 46 distinct phylotypes. Among the latter, 4 (9%) were considered previously unreported and further taxonomically classified as members of the order Clostridiales. Well-known endodontic representatives of Campylobacter, Eubacterium, Peptostreptococcus, Selenomonas, Treponema e Veillonella were detected, as well as members of less frequently reported genera, such as Burkholderia, Filifactor and Megasphaera. The application of the Real Time PCR technique permitted the detection of P. gingivalis, T. forsythia and a coexistence of both in 24%, 56% e 18% of the subjects, respectively. No significant correlations were evidenced among the levels of P. gingivalis and T. forsythia, individually or conjointly, and spontaneous endodontic pain. The use of T-RFLP in the analysis of bacterial community structures revealed a total of 123 (HhaI endonuclease) and 122 (MspI endonuclease) distinct terminal restriction fragments (T-RFs), with 20.8 and 20.0 mean T-RFs per tooth, respectively. Approximately 50% of the detected fragments were exclusive to one or two patients, indicating a high inter-
subject variability in the bacterial assemblages. Cluster and multivariate statistical analyses did not demonstrate significant differences in the bacterial community profiles among the asymptomatic, tender to percussion and symptomatic study groups. Taken together, the results of this study reiterate the concept that the microbiota associated with endodontic infections is essentially polymicrobial, highly variable among individuals, and predominantly composed of Gram-positive anaerobic bacteria from the phylum Firmicutes. The species P. gingivalis and T. forsythia, although relatively prevalent in root canal infections, did not present significant correlations with the development of symptomatic features. Lastly, the absence of clusters of bacterial profiles according to symptomatic parameters suggests that the intraradicular bacterial community structures, as a whole, do not bear significant influence on the development of pain of endodontic origin

▼ Functional
RNA elements do not encode proteins, but rather function directly as RNAs. Many different types of RNAs play important roles in a wide range of cellular processes, including protein synthesis, gene regulation, protein transport, splicing, and more. Because important sequence and structural features tend to be evolutionarily conserved, one way to learn about functional RNAs is through comparative sequence analysis - by collecting and aligning examples of homologous RNAs and comparing them. Covariance models: CMs) are powerful computational tools for homology search and alignment that score both the conserved sequence and secondary structure of an
RNA family. However, due to the high computational complexity of their search and alignment algorithms, searches against large databases and alignment of large RNAs like small subunit ribosomal
RNA: SSU rRNA) are prohibitively slow. Large-scale alignment of SSU rRNA is of particular utility for environmental survey studies of microbial diversity which often use the rRNA as a phylogenetic marker of microorganisms. In this work, we improve CM methods by making them faster and more sensitive to remote homology. To accelerate searches, we introduce a query-dependent banding: QDB) technique that makes scoring sequences more efficient by restricting the possible lengths of structural elements based on their probability given the model. We combine QDB with a complementary filtering method that quickly prunes away database subsequences deemed unlikely to receive high CM scores based on sequence conservation alone. To increase search sensitivity, we apply two model parameterization strategies from protein homology search tools to CMs. As judged by our benchmark, these combined approaches yield about a 250-fold speedup and significant increase in search sensitivity compared with previous implementations. To accelerate alignment, we apply a method that uses a fast sequence-based alignment of a target sequence to determine constraints for the more expensive CM sequence- and structure-based alignment. This technique reduces the time required to align one SSU rRNA sequence from about 15 minutes to 1 second with a negligible effect on alignment accuracy. Collectively, these improvements make CMs more powerful and practical tools for
RNA homology search and alignment.
