英文摘要 | The filamentous cyanobacteriumAnabaenasp. PCC 7120 develops N-2-fixing heterocyst cells under condition of combined-nitrogen deprivation and constitutes an excellent model for studying cell differentiation. The mechanism of heterocyst development has been extensively investigated and a network of regulating factors has been identified. A few studies have showed that the process of heterocyst differentiation relates with cell cycle events, but further investigation is still required to understand this relationship. In a previous study, we created a conditional mutant of PolI encoding gene,polA, by using a CRISPR/Cpf1 gene-editing technique. Here, we were able to create another conditional mutant of a PolIII encoding genednaENIusing a similar strategy and subsequently confirmed the essential roles of bothpolAanddnaENIin DNA replication. Further investigation on the phenotype of the mutants showed that lack of PolI caused defects in chromosome segregation and cell division, while lack of DnaENI (PolIII) prevented bulk DNA synthesis, causing significant loss of DNA content. Our findings also suggested the possible existence of a SOS-response like mechanism operating inAnabaenaPCC 7120. Moreover, we found that heterocyst development was differently affected in the two conditional mutants, with double heterocysts/proheterocysts found in PolI conditional mutant. We further showed that formation of such double heterocysts/proheterocysts are likely caused by the difficulty in nucleoids segregation, resulting delayed, or non-complete closure of the septum between the two daughter cells. This study uncovers a link between DNA replication process and heterocyst differentiation, paving the way for further studies on the relationship between cell cycle and cell development. |
