ABSTRACT Two hypothetical genes were functionally verified to be a pyrophosphatase and a PAP phosphatase in Thermococcus onnurineus NA1. This is the first report of the pyrophosphatases and the PAP phosphatases being organized in the gene clusters of the sulfate activation system only in T. onnurineus NA1 and “Pyrococcus abyssi.”

ABSTRACT Vibrio cholerae is a facultative human pathogen. In its aquatic habitat and as it passes through the digestive tract, V. cholerae must cope with fluctuations in salinity. We analyzed the genome-wide transcriptional profile of V. cholerae grown at different NaCl concentrations and determined that the expression of compatible solute biosynthesis and transporter genes, virulence genes, and genes involved in adhesion and biofilm formation is differentially regulated. We determined that salinity modulates biofilm formation, and this response was mediated through the transcriptional regulators VpsR and VpsT. Additionally, a transcriptional regulator controlling an osmolarity adaptation response was identified. This regulator, OscR (osmolarity controlled regulator), was found to modulate the transcription of genes involved in biofilm matrix production and motility in a salinity-dependent manner. oscR mutants were less motile and exhibited enhanced biofilm formation only under low-salt conditions.
