Abstract

Different pathways for autotrophic CO2 fixation can be recognized by the presence of genes for their specific key enzymes. On this basis, (meta)genomic, (meta)transcriptomic, or (meta)proteomic analysis enables the identification of the role of an organism or a distinct pathway in primary production. However, the recently discovered variant of the reductive tricarboxylic acid (rTCA) cycle, the reverse oxidative tricarboxylic acid (roTCA) cycle, lacks unique enzymes, a feature that makes it cryptic for bioinformatics analysis. This pathway is a reversal of the widespread tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The functioning of the roTCA cycle requires unusually high activity of citrate synthase, the enzyme responsible for citrate cleavage, as well as elevated CO2 partial pressures. Here, we present a detailed description of the protocol we used for the identification of the roTCA cycle in members of Desulfurellaceae. First, we describe the anaerobic cultivation of Desulfurellaceae at different CO2 concentrations with a method that can be adapted to the cultivation of other anaerobes. Then, we explain how to measure activities of enzymes responsible for citrate cleavage, malate dehydrogenase reaction, and the crucial carboxylation step of the cycle catalyzed by pyruvate synthase in cell extracts. In conclusion, we describe stable isotope experiments that allow tracking of the roTCA cycle in vivo, through the position-specific incorporation of carbon-13 into amino acids. The label is provided to the organism as 13CO2 or [1-13C]glutamate. The same key methodology can be used for the reliable evaluation of the functioning of the roTCA cycle in any organism under study. This pathway is likely to participate, completely unseen, in the metabolism of various microorganisms.

Background

The study of metabolic pathways responsible for the fixation of inorganic carbon is important for the understanding of the evolution of early cellular life (Fuchs, 2011; Weiss et al., 2016) and the investigation of current global issues, such as climate change. Being responsible for the net fixation of 7 × 1016 g carbon annually (Field et al., 1998), this biological process is critical for the sustainment of life on Earth. Until today, seven different autotrophic CO2 fixation pathways have been described (Berg, 2011; Fuchs, 2011; Sánchez-Andrea et al., 2020). In most cases, the detection of genes that encode enzymes catalyzing key steps in a specific pathway in (meta)genomes and (meta)transcriptomes allows us to estimate the contribution of the corresponding organisms or communities to primary production. However, the recent discovery of the reversed oxidative tricarboxylic acid (roTCA) cycle in the obligate anaerobic sulfur reducers, Desulfurella acetivorans (Mall et al., 2018) and Thermosulfidibacter takaii (Nunoura et al., 2018), challenges this view. The roTCA cycle is the reversal of the widespread (Krebs) tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and its key features are high energetic efficiency and the lack of any unique enzyme. Being a variant of the reductive TCA (rTCA) cycle, the roTCA cycle utilizes citrate synthase, instead of ATP-citrate lyase, to catalyze the citrate cleavage reaction (citrate + CoA → acetyl-CoA + oxaloacetate + H2O). This step is thermodynamically and kinetically unfavorable—it requires an elevated amount of catalyst (i.e., citrate synthase represents 7% of the total protein content in D. acetivorans [Steffens et al., 2021]), and also an unusually high substrate to product ratio (i.e., CoA/acetyl CoA is 93 in D. acetivorans, using the roTCA cycle [Mall et al., 2018], and only 2.3 in Escherichia coli, using the classical TCA cycle [Bennett et al., 2009]).


Considering the almost universal distribution of citrate synthase in bacteria, this pathway may potentially function unnoticed in many autotrophs, making bioinformatical predictions challenging and raising the question on how to identify it (Mall et al., 2018). Our recent study (Steffens et al., 2021), from which this protocol originates, helped to resolve this issue, but also revealed physiological constraints governing the functioning of the roTCA cycle. Therein, for several representatives of the family Desulfurellaceae (i.e., Hippea maritima, D. acetivorans, D. multipotens, D. propionica), we demonstrated that the usage of the roTCA cycle requires high partial pressure of CO2. The growth of these bacteria showed a clear dependence on CO2 concentration, with cells barely growing at partial pressure of CO2 below 10 kPa. In contrast, Desulfobacter hydrogenophilus, which uses the ATP-citrate lyase-dependent variant of the cycle (Schauder et al., 1987), grew equally well at all tested CO2 concentrations (from 2 to 80 kPa) (Steffens et al., 2021). Our data revealed that the pyruvate synthase reaction (acetyl-CoA + CO2 + reduced ferredoxin → pyruvate + CoA + oxidized ferredoxin) was responsible for this CO2 dependence, as this thermodynamically challenging reaction requires low CoA/acetyl-CoA ratio. As already mentioned, the reversal of the citrate synthase reaction (and thus the functioning of the roTCA cycle) is only possible at high CoA and low acetyl-CoA concentrations, making the following acetyl-CoA carboxylation with pyruvate synthase difficult. This unfavorable condition is compensated by the increase in the concentration of CO2, another substrate of the pyruvate synthase reaction, making the assimilation of acetyl-CoA possible, as the product of the roTCA cycle.


With these features in mind, we can now streamline different techniques in a protocol that will permit the verification of the functioning of the roTCA in promising candidate organisms. Anaerobic cultivation experiments prove the growth dependence on different CO2 concentrations. Extremely high activities of the citrate synthase and malate dehydrogenase reactions in cell extracts are not necessary for other metabolic pathways, thus proving the requirement for an increased amount of catalysts to perform the ATP-independent citrate cleavage. The presence in cell extracts of the critical carboxylases of the pathway (pyruvate and 2-oxoglutarate synthases) further confirms the functioning of the roTCA cycle. Finally, isotopologue profiling of amino acids show position-specific incorporations of carbon-13 and prove the operation of the roTCA cycle in growing bacteria. Cultures grown with 13CO2 show an enrichment of fully labelled amino acids, especially of glutamate, thus proving the existence of a functional CO2 fixation pathway. Cultures grown in the presence of traces of [1-13C]glutamate show the specific formation and accumulation of [4-13C]aspartate, evidencing that the roTCA cycle is closed. However, some bacteria are not capable to transport glutamate into the cells; in this case, the glutamate labelling experiment will not be applicable and alternatives might be considered, such as 13C-labelled pyruvate, glutamine, or citrate.


The identification of promising candidate organisms can be carried out with the help of bioinformatics tools; analysis of (meta)genomes could help to exclude assuredly autotrophic organisms a priori, due to the presence of key enzymatic genes of known CO2 fixation pathways. Nevertheless, the presence of other autotrophic enzymes does not make the functioning of the roTCA cycle impossible. For example, D. multipotens uses the roTCA cycle while possessing an apparently functional gene for ATP-citrate lyase (Mall et al., 2018; Steffens et al., 2021). The usage of software Interactive Codon Analysis (INCA) (Supek et al., 2004, 2005) could help to screen organisms in advance. Indeed, codon usage patterns could be used for the prediction of highly expressed genes, and high expression of the citrate synthase gene is crucial for the functioning of this cycle. However, the results of the codon usage analysis are not decisive and may lead to false-positives or false-negatives, requiring biochemical assays with cell extracts, or perhaps, quantitative proteomics/transcriptomics data for further proof. Accordingly, every case has to be necessarily validated experimentally.


Being an energetically efficient autotrophic pathway, the roTCA cycle may be widespread in natural environments at elevated partial pressures of CO2 (e.g., deep-sea hydrothermal vents) (Steffens et al., 2021). Its elusiveness compromises the reliability of bioinformatics analysis, and the possibility to make solid predictions about the capability of microorganisms for autotrophic growth or primary production. The protocol presented here allows an unambiguous identification of the roTCA cycle in organisms under study.

When special attention is required due to their stability, recommended storage conditions or special notes are reported (e.g., freshly solved before the assays). The pH of organic acids and ATP solutions should be adjusted to neutral; the pH of Tris-HCl buffers can be adjusted at RT, but please note that when the final test temperature differs from RT, the pH also changes according to the following formula: ΔpKa/°C≈-0.028 (e.g., the pH of Tris solutions decreases 0.028 pH units for each 1°C increase in temperature). For long-term storage, organic compounds and CoA esters solutions should be kept at -20°C or -80°C, if not mentioned otherwise; all buffers and salt solutions could be kept at RT.
