a b s t r a c t Life surviving in extremely cold frozen environments has been largely uninvestigated. Here we described the draft genome of Marinomonas sp. BSi20584, isolated from Arctic sea ice in the Canada Basin. The assembled genome comprised 4.85 Mb, with the G + C content of 42.6%. Single copy of rRNA operon was detected, which may increase fitness in cold and nutrient-limited environment. In addition, BSi20584 may also use universal strategies for cold adaptation as indicated by the genome. Abundant genes responsible for decomposition of aromatic hydrocarbons were detected, which suggested potential biotechnological applications. The first genomic analysis of Marinomonas in Arctic sea ice provided primary genetic information and encouraged further research on comparative genomics and biotechnological applications. © 2015 Elsevier B.V.

1. Introduction The Arctic is characterized by extremely low temperature, strong solar radiation and being covered by sea ice for most part. The sea ice is a challenging niche for microorganisms, due to its dynamic temperatures from surface to bottom, and high salinity in brine inclusions (Collins et al., 2010). In addition, the frozen environment is of great interest in astrobiology. Bacteria have been detected alive in the high Arctic sea ice (Junge et al., 2004). However, our understanding of microorganisms inhabiting sea ice is still very limited. Although 24 species have been described in the genus Marinomonas (http://www.bacterio.net/-allnamesmr.html), only six genomes are available in the GenBank (Table 1), including complete genomes of M. posidonica IVIA-Po-181 (Lucas-Elío et al., 2012a), M. mediterranea MMB-1 (Lucas-Elío et al., 2012b) and Marinomonas sp. MWYL1 (NC_ 009654), as well as draft genomes of Marinomonas sp. MED121 (NZ_AANE01000000), M. ushuaiensis DSM 15871 (NZ_JAMB00000000) and Marinomonas sp. D104 (Dong et al., 2014). As a widely distributed marine genus, more investigations at genomic level are required to improve our understanding of its ecology, physiology, genetics and potential in biotechnological applications. Psychrotrophic Marinomonas sp. BSi20584 was isolated from the top 10 cm of an ice core sampled from the high Arctic Canada Basin, during the Second Chinese National Arctic Research Expedition in 2003. The strain was deposited in the Marine Culture Collection of China under the accession number MCCC 1C00250. The 16S rRNA gene shared 99.66% identity with the type strain M. polaris CK13T (AJ833000). ⁎ Corresponding author. Tel.: +86 21 50385104; fax: +86 21 58711663. E-mail address: [email protected] (B.

Currently, neither genome of this species nor Marinomonas genome from Arctic sea ice was reported. To fill this gap, Marinomonas sp. BSi20584 was chosen for genome sequencing. Genomic DNA was extracted using the Bacterial Genomic DNA Miniprep Kit (BioDev-Tech Co., China). Pair end (2 × 100 bp) sequencing was performed on the Illumina Hiseq 2000 platform. Raw data was filtered and then assembled by using SOAPdenovo v2.04 (Luo et al., 2012). Transfer RNAs and ribosomal RNAs were predicted by using tRNAscan-SE v1.3.1 (Schattner et al., 2005) and Barrnap 0.4.2 (http:// www.vicbioinformatics.com/software.barrnap.shtml), respectively. Genes were predicted by using Glimmer 3.02 (Delcher et al., 2007), and annotated by searching against the NCBI-nr and KEGG databases. Phylogenetic tree was built based on concatenated alignments of potential orthologous protein sequences (Brown et al., 2001; Strous et al., 2006; Wolf et al., 2002). A total of 1765 single-copy genes shared by all the Marinomonas genomes available in the GenBank and the genome of Marinomonas sp. BSi20584 were aligned in ClustalX 2.0 (Larkin et al., 2007) and concatenated to construct a neighbor-joining tree using MEGA5 (Tamura et al., 2011). The assembled genome consisted of 4,848,582 bp (67 scaffolds), with the G + C content of 42.6%, falling in the range of known Marinomonas genomes (Table 1). A total of 60 tRNAs, 3 rRNAs and 4462 genes were predicted in the draft genome (Table 1). The most similar genome of Marinomonas sp. BSi20584 was Marinomonas sp. MWYL1, which was isolated from the root surface of the salt marsh grass Spartina anglica and able to degrade dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) (Ansede et al., 2001; Howard et al., 2008), as revealed by phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated alignments (Fig. 1). The second closest genome was Marinomonas sp. D104, which was isolated from deep-sea sediment from Makarov Basin, Arctic Ocean and showed

potential abilities in degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (Dong et al., 2014). The genomic analysis showed that Marinomonas sp. BSi20584 had genetic capacity for adaptation to the cold and salty niche in Arctic sea ice. The widely used strategies to cope with low temperature and/or hyper-osmolality such as molecular chaperones, heat/cold shock proteins, DNA repair systems, maintenance of membrane fluidity and accumulation of compatible solutes were also applicable in BSi20584, as indicated by the genome. In addition, BSi20584 also had unique features for adaptation. For example, a novel heat shock protein gene (TY87_15825) shared modest identity with that of Escherichia coli but no similarity with genes from Marinomonas, suggesting horizontal gene transfer. Moreover, there was a distinct bias of rRNA operon numbers between Marinomonas, with around 6 to 8 copies in Marinomonas isolated from temperate or tropical regions (Marinomonas sp. MWYL1, M. posidonica IVIA-Po-181, M. mediterranea MMB-1, and Marinomonas sp. MED121), while only 1 or 2 copies in Marinomonas isolated from sub-Antarctica or the Arctic (Marinomonas sp. D104, M. ushuaiensis DSM15871, and Marinomonas sp. BSi20584). It was reported that rRNA operon copy number might be related to the response rate to resource availability (Klappenbach et al., 2000). Multiple copies of rRNA operon allow microorganisms to respond quickly to fluctuating environmental conditions, while fewer rRNA operons may lead to slow reaction. However, the constitutive expression from multiple rRNA operons is energy-costive, especially for slow-growing bacteria. Therefore, single copy of rRNA operon in BSi20584 is favored for adaptation to slow growth in nutrient-poor Arctic sea ice, which is probably true for the other two psychrotolerant Marinomonas strains. Central metabolism of BSi20584 seems overall to be similar to other Marinomonas, e.g., full glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, citrate cycle and pentose phosphate pathway etc. were present in all Marinomonas. However, metabolic differences were predicted in many other pathways among them. For example, BSi20584 had more genes responsible for degradation of aromatic compounds than the other Marinomonas, providing unique genetic abilities in degradation of benzoate and xylenes in addition to other commonly degraded aromatic hydrocarbons. This genetic ability may be further exploited in biotechnological

applications. Like the two psychrotolerant strains Marinomonas sp. D104 and M. ushuauensus DSM15871, BSi20584 lacked the gene cluster responsible for DMSP degradation, which occurred in the other four strains. Fewer genes encoding transposase and inactivated derivatives (8 genes) were found in the BSi20584 genome, compared with the other Marinomonas (about 12 to 56 genes), which suggested that the BSi20584 genome was probably less dynamic. In summary, we reported the first Marinomonas genome from Arctic sea ice, and provided primary information on its adaptation and metabolism. Further experimental evidences to support the prediction deduced from the genome sequence would provide a better understanding of this psychrotolerant Marinomonas species. 2.
