| 1 | A unique subseafloor microbiosphere in the Mariana Trench driven by episodic sedimentation显示文摘Hadal trenches are characterized by enhanced and infrequent high-rate episodic sedimentation events that likely introduce not only labile organic carbon and key nutrients but also new microbes that significantly alter the subseafloor microbiosphere.Currently,the role of high-rate episodic sedimentation in controlling the composition of the hadal subseafloor microbiosphere is unknown.Here,analyses of carbon isotope composition in a~750 cm long sediment core from the Challenger Deep revealed noncontinuous deposition,with anomalous ^(14)C ages likely caused by seismically driven mass transport and the funneling effect of trench geomorphology.Microbial community composition and diverse enzyme activities in the upper~27 cm differed from those at lower depths,probably due to sudden sediment deposition and differences in redox condition and organic matter availability.At lower depths,microbial population numbers,and composition remained relatively constant,except at some discrete depths with altered enzyme activity and microbial phyla abundance,possibly due to additional sudden sedimentation events of different magnitude.Evidence is provided of a unique role for high-rate episodic sedimentation events in controlling the subsurface microbiosphere in Earth’s deepest ocean floor and highlight the need to perform thorough analysis over a large depth range to characterize hadal benthic populations.Such depositional processes are likely crucial in shaping deep-water geochemical environments and thereby the deep subseafloor biosphere. | Jiwen Liu Da-Wei Li Xinxin He Ronghua Liu Haojin Cheng Chenglong Su Mengna Chen Yonghong Wang Zhongsheng Zhao Hanyue Xu Zhangyu Cheng Zicheng Wang Nikolai Pedentchouk David J.Lea-Smith Jonathan D.Todd Xiaoshou Liu Meixun Zhao Xiao-Hua Zhang | 2024 | Marine Life Science & Technology2024，6，1： | 0 |
| 2 | Mechanistic insights into the key marine dimethylsulfoniopropionate synthesis enzyme DsyB/DSYB显示文摘Marine algae and bacteria produce approximately eight billion tonnes of the organosulfur molecule dimethylsulfoniopropionate(DMSP)in Earth's surface oceans annually.DMSP is an antistress compound and,once released into the environment,a major nutrient,signaling molecule,and source of climate-active gases.The methionine transamination pathway for DMSP synthesis is used by most known DMSP-producing algae and bacteria.The S-directed S-adenosylmethionine(SAM)-dependent 4-methylthio-2-hydroxybutyrate(MTHB)S-methyltransferase,encoded by the dsyB/DSYB gene,is the key enzyme of this pathway,generating S-adenosylhomocysteine(SAH)and 4-dimethylsulfonio-2-hydroxybutyrate(DMSHB).DsyB/DSYB,present in most haptophyte and dinoflagellate algae with the highest known intracellular DMSP concentrations,is shown to be far more abundant and transcribed in marine environments than any other known S-methyltransferase gene in DMSP synthesis pathways.Furthermore,we demonstrate in vitro activity of the bacterial DsyB enzyme from Nisaea denitrificans and provide its crystal structure in complex with SAM and SAH-MTHB,which together provide the first important mechanistic insights into a DMSP synthesis enzyme.Structural and mutational analyses imply that DsyB adopts a proximity and desolvation mechanism for the methyl transfer reaction.Sequence analysis suggests that this mechanism may be common to all bacterial DsyB enzymes and also,importantly,eukaryotic DSYB enzymes from e.g.,algae that are the major DMSP producers in Earth's surface oceans. | Chun-Yang Li Jason C.Crack Simone Newton-Payne Andrew R.J.Murphy Xiu-Lan Chen Benjamin J.Pinchbeck Shun Zhou Beth T.Williams Ming Peng Xiao-Hua Zhang Yin Chen Nick E.Le Brun Jonathan D.Todd Yu-Zhong Zhang | 2022 | mLife2022，1，2： | 0 |
