Abstract
The effects of soluble and insoluble lanthanides on gene expression in Methylococcus capsulatus Bath were investigated. Genes for lanthanide-containing methanol dehydrogenases (XoxF-MDHs) and their calcium-containing counterparts (MxaFI-MDHs) were up- and down-regulated, respectively, by supplementation with soluble lanthanide chlorides, indicating that M. capsulatus has the "lanthanide switch" observed in other methanotrophs. Insoluble lanthanide oxides also induced the lanthanide switch and were dissolved by the spent medium of M. capsulatus, suggesting the presence of lanthanide-chelating compounds. A transcriptome ana-lysis indicated that a gene cluster for the synthesis of an enterobactin-like metal chelator contributed to the dissolution of insoluble lanthanides.
