英文摘要 | Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are prokaryotes that form intracellular magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4) nanocrystals with tailored sizes, often in chain configurations. Such magnetic particles are each surrounded by a lipid bilayer membrane, called a magnetosome, and provide a model system for studying the formation and function of specialized internal structures in prokaryotes. Using fluorescence-coupled scanning electron microscopy, we identified a novel magnetotactic spirillum, XQGS-1, from freshwater Xingqinggong Lake, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province, China. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicate that strain XQGS-1 represents a novel genus of the Alphaproteobacteria class in the Proteobacteria phylum. Transmission electron microscopy analyses reveal that strain XQGS-1 forms on average 17 +/- 3 magnetite magnetosome particles with an ideal truncated octahedral morphology, with an average length and width of 88.3 +/- 11.7 nm and 83.3 +/- 11.0 nm, respectively. They are tightly organized into a single chain along the cell long axis close to the concave side of the cell. Intrachain magnetic interactions likely result in these large equidimensional magnetite crystals behaving as magnetically stable single-domain particles that enable bacterial magnetotaxis. Combined structural and chemical analyses demonstrate that XQGS-1 cells also biomineralize intracellular amorphous calcium phosphate (2 to 3 granules per cell; 90.5- +/- 19.3-nm average size) and weakly crystalline calcium carbonate (2 to 3 granules per cell; 100.4- +/- 21.4-nm average size) in addition to magnetite. Our results expand the taxonomic diversity of MTB and provide evidence for intracellular calcium phosphate biomineralization in MTB. IMPORTANCE Biomineralization is a widespread process in eukaryotes that form shells, teeth, or bones. It also occurs commonly in prokaryotes, resulting in more than 60 known minerals formed by different bacteria under wide-ranging conditions. Among them, magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are remarkable because they might represent the earliest organisms that biomineralize intracellular magnetic iron minerals (i.e., magnetite (Fe3O4] or greigite [Fe3S4]). Here, we report a novel magnetotactic spirillum (XQGS-1) that is phylogenetically affiliated with the Alphaproteobacteria class. In addition to magnetite crystals, XQGS-1 cells form intracellular submicrometer calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate granules. This finding supports the view that MTB are also an important microbial group for intracellular calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate biomineralization. |
