Análise comparativa das seqüências de genes da ilha simbiótica entre Bradyrhizobium elkanii e Bradyrhizobium japonicum

Abstract

Symbiont bacteria, commonly known as rhizobia interact with root legume and induce the formation of Nitrogen-fixing nodules. Among rhizobia, essential genes for symbioses are compartmentalized either in symbiotic islands or in chromosomal islands. For better understanding of the structure and evolution of these symbiotic islands, it is necessary to analyze their genetic context and organization. The work had as objective to analyze genes related to the symbiotic island in the partial genoma of the B. elkanii strain 587 has 5.821.111 bp sequenced, containing 62,6 % of GC in 3941 Contigs, been identified 5381 ORFs. A purported symbiotic island was localized through of the identification of related genes of fixing nitrogen and nodulation in comparison with the symbiotic island of B. japonicum, founding 267 ORFs in B. elkanii, where 17 ORFs were identified as transposases. So through these partial results could be possible to infer that B. elkanii probably shows a symbiotic island with genetic rearrange into chromosome, because it showed lower genome size than B. japonicum.

Bactérias simbiontes conhecidos como rizóbios interagem com raízes de leguminosas e induzem a formação de nódulos fixadores de nitrogênio. Em rizóbios, genes essenciais para simbiose são compartimentalizados em ilhas simbióticas ou em ilhas no cromossoma. Para o entendimento da estrutura e evolução dessas ilhas simbióticas, é necessário analisar seu contexto genético e sua organização. O genoma parcial de B. elkanii SEMIA 587 apresenta hoje um total de 5.821.111 pb seqüenciados contendo 62,6 % de GC em 3941 Contigs, onde foram identificados 5381 ORFs. Uma suposta ilha simbiótica foi localizada através da identificação de genes relacionados à fixação e nodulação em comparação à ilha simbiótica de B. japonicum, encontrando 267 ORFs em B. elkanii, onde 17 ORFs foram identificadas como transposases. Assim, através destes resultados parciais pode ser possível averiguar que B. elkanii provavelmente sofreu um rearranjo genético no cromossoma, já que ele apresenta um tamanho menor que B. japonicum em relação ao tamanho do genoma.
