Importance of Understanding Bacterial Phylogeny

(First cell)

Current View of Bacterial Phylogeny

• No defined criteria for identifying the main groups within Bacteria.• Interrelationships of different groups to each other is not known.• Lateral gene transfer is indicated to be rampant among bacteria. Critical assessment of its impact on bacterial phylogeny.

16S rRNA TreeBergey’s Manual (2001)

Thermophilic organisms lie at the base of this tree: Hot Origin of Life? Photosynthesis is distributed in a number of different unrelated groups

Unresolved Issues

What is Minimally Needed to Understand Bacterial Phylogeny?

Development of well-defined and objective Criteria for Identifying the Main Groups Within Bacteria.

To understand how different main groups are relatedto each other and in what order they have branched off from a common ancestor.

New approach based on Rare Genomic ChangesSee also www.bacterialphylogeny.com

Use of Rare Genomic Changes to Understand Bacterial Phylogeny

1. Conserved inserts or deletions unique to particular groups of Species2. Whole proteins that are uniquely present in particular groups.

Two Types of Rare Genomic Changes

Group-specific or Subgroup-Specific Signatures

Provides mean for identifying different groups/subgroups of bacteria in clear molecular terms

Main-Line Signature

Helpful in understanding the branching order or interrelationships among different groups

Branching Order of Bacteria Based on Signature Sequences

The groups are arranged in the order in which they have branched off from a common ancestor.

All main phyla are distinguished from each other based on both group-specific and main-line signatures.

Cells bounded by one membrane are indicated to be phylogenetically distinct from those containing both inner and outer cell membranes. Of these Monoderms are indicated to be ancestral.

How Reliable is this Branch Order?

Is the observed pattern affected by Lateral Gene Transfer?

Test of the Model Using Genome Sequence Data

The model makes specific predictions which indels should be present or absent in different groups.

If the genes containing these indels were subject of frequent LGTs, then their presence or absence will not follow any predicted pattern.

Compare the observed vs. predicted distribution of these indels in various completed bacterial genomes.

The observed distribution of these indels in different genomes (> 200) is found to be almost exactly as predicted by the model. In > 10000 observations,

Implications Regarding Origin of Thermophyly

Aquificales, which constitute one of the extreme thermophilic phylum is indicated to be a late branching lineage’

The deep branching of Aquificales in 16S rRNA tree is likely a consequence of very high G+C content (>65%) of their rRNAs, which is similar to other thermophilic organisms (viz. Archaea). Genomic G+C content of Aquificales is only 40-42%. LGT?

Thermophyly appears to be an adapative characteristic rather than an ancestral trait.


Implications for Photosynthesis

Heliobacterium , which contain RC-1, and comprise the only photosynthetic group bounded by a single membrane, is indicated to be the earliest branching lineage. The ancestral nature of this RC is also supported by other observations.

The organisms containing either RC-1 or RC-2 evolved prior to the evolution of Cyanobacteria, which contains both RCs to carry out oxygenic photosynthesis.

The presence of photosynthetic ability in the earliest branching bacterial phylum indicates that photosynthesis evolved very early in evolution and it is possible that the earliest prokaryotic organisms were photosynthetic.
