“…N1 showed closest phylogenetic relationship to Bradyrhizobium japonicum (Table 2), which is a nirK-type denitrifier performing various carbon metabolism pathways [28]. N2 (Pseudomonas protegens) is known as an acetate using denitrifier [29], which agreed with its exclusive enrichment in acetic acid lane.…”

“…Studies have shown that bacteroid viability can vary greatly (between <1 and 95%; Tsien et al, 1977;Gresshoff and Rolfe, 1978;Sutton and Paterson, 1983;Zhou et al, 1985;McDermott et al, 1987) and may depend on the host Paterson, 1980, 1983;McDermott et al, 1987), the culture medium (Sutton et al, 1977;Gresshoff and Rolfe, 1978), and the strains used (McDermott et al, 1987). After nodule senescence, the differences in bacteroid viability between strains may result in a numerical advantage for a certain strain in the soil and, consequently, may influence nodule occupancy on the following crop.…”

“…DctD proteins included in this study regulate synthesis of the dicarboxylate transport system which provides the carbon source for symbiotic-nitrogen fixation (McDermott et al 1989). Interestingly, the recently sequenced sensor kinase (DctS)-response regulator (DctR) pair that regulates synthesis of the dicarboxylate transporter in Rhodobacter capsulatus, which functions independently of nitrogen metabolism, is similar not to the Rhizobial DctD protein but rather to the FixJ protein of Rhizobium meliloti (Hamblin et al 1993).…”

Response regulators of bacterial signal transduction systems: Selective domain shuffling during evolution

Response regulators of bacterial sensory transduction systems generally consist of receiver module domains covalently linked to effector domains. The effector domains include DNA binding and/or catalytic units that are regulated by sensor kinase-catalyzed aspartyl phosphorylation within their receiver modules. Most receiver modules are associated with three distinct families of DNA binding domains, but some are associated with other types of DNA binding domains, with methylated chemotaxis protein (MCP) demethylases, or with sensor kinases. A few exist as independent entities which regulate their target systems by noncovalent interactions. In this study the molecular phylogenies of the receiver modules and effector domains of 49 fully sequenced response regulators and their homologues were determined. The three major, evolutionarily distinct, DNA binding domains found in response regulators were evaluated for their phylogenetic relatedness, and the phylogenetic trees obtained for these domains were compared with those for the receiver modules. Members of one family (family 1) of DNA binding domains are linked to large ATPase domains which usually function cooperatively in the activation of E. coli sigma 54-dependent promoters or their equivalents in other bacteria. Members of a second family (family 2) always function in conjunction with the E. coli sigma 70 or its equivalent in other bacteria. A third family of DNA binding domains (family 3) functions by an uncharacterized mechanism involving more than one sigma factor. These three domain families utilize distinct helix-turn-helix motifs for DNA binding. The phylogenetic tree of the receiver modules revealed three major and several minor clusters of these domains. The three major receiver module clusters (clusters 1, 2, and 3) generally function with the three major families of DNA binding domains (families 1, 2, and 3, respectively) to comprise three classes of response regulators (classes 1, 2, and 3), although several exceptions exist. The minor clusters of receiver modules were usually, but not always, associated with other types of effector domains. Finally, several receiver modules did not fit into a cluster. It was concluded that receiver modules usually diverged from common ancestral protein domains together with the corresponding effector domains, although domain shuffling, due to intragenic splicing and fusion, must have occurred during the evolution of some of these proteins. Multiple sequence alignments of the 49 receiver modules and their various types of effector domains, together with other homologous domains, allowed definition of regions of striking sequence similarity and degrees of conservation of specific residues. Sequence data were correlated with structure/function when such information was available.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
