Item Draft Genome Sequence of Lactococcus lactis Subsp. cremoris WA2-67: A Promising Nisin-Producing Probiotic Strain Isolated from the Rearing Environment of a Spanish Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum) Farm(Microorganisms, 2022) Feito Hermida, Javier; Contente, Diogo; Ponce Alonso, Manuel; Díaz Formoso, Lara; Araújo, Carlos; Peña Vidal, Nuria; Borrero Del Pino, Juan; Gómez Sala, Beatriz; Campo, Rosa del; Muñoz Atienza, Estefanía; Hernández Cruza, Pablo Elpidio; Cintas Izarra, Luis MiguelProbiotics are a viable alternative to traditional chemotherapy agents to control infectious diseases in aquaculture. In this regard, Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris WA2-67 has previously demonstrated several probiotic features, such as a strong antimicrobial activity against ichthyopathogens, survival in freshwater, resistance to fish bile and low pH, and hydrophobicity. The aim of this manuscript is an in silico analysis of the whole-genome sequence (WGS) of this strain to gain deeper insights into its probiotic properties and their genetic basis. Genomic DNA was purified, and libraries prepared for Illumina sequencing. After trimming and assembly, resulting contigs were subjected to bioinformatic analyses. The draft genome of L. cremoris WA2-67 consists of 30 contigs (2,573,139 bp), and a total number of 2493 coding DNA sequences (CDSs). Via in silico analysis, the bacteriocinogenic genetic clusters encoding the lantibiotic nisin Z (NisZ) and two new bacteriocins were identified, in addition to several probiotic traits, such as the production of vitamins, amino acids, adhesion/aggregation, and stress resistance factors, as well as the absence of transferable antibiotic resistance determinants and genes encoding detrimental enzymatic activities and virulence factors. These results unveil diverse beneficial properties that support the use of L. cremoris WA2-67 as a probiotic for aquaculture.Item Antimicrobial Activity, Genetic Relatedness, and Safety Assessment of Potential Probiotic Lactic Acid Bacteria Isolated from a Rearing Tank of Rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis) Used as Live Feed in Fish Larviculture(Animals, 2024) Contente, Diogo; Díaz Formoso, Lara; Feito Hermida, Javier; Gómez Sala, Beatriz; Costas, Damián; Hernández Cruza, Pablo Elpidio; Muñoz Atienza, Estefanía; Borrero Del Pino, Juan; Poeta, Patrícia; Cintas Izarra, Luis MiguelAquaculture is a rapidly expanding agri-food industry that faces substantial economic losses due to infectious disease outbreaks, such as bacterial infections. These outbreaks cause disruptions and high mortalities at various stages of the rearing process, especially in the larval stages. Probiotic bacteria are emerging as promising and sustainable alternative or complementary strategies to vaccination and the use of antibiotics in aquaculture. In this study, potential probiotic candidates for larviculture were isolated from a rotifer-rearing tank used as the first live feed for turbot larvae. Two Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and two Lactiplantibacillus plantarum isolates were selected for further characterization due to their wide and strong antimicrobial activity against several ichthyopathogens, both Gram-positive and Gram-negative. An extensive in vitro safety assessment of these four isolates revealed the absence of harmful traits, such as acquired antimicrobial resistance and other virulence factors (i.e., hemolytic and gelatinase activities, bile salt deconjugation, and mucin degradation, as well as PCR detection of biogenic amine production). Moreover, Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus-PCR (ERIC-PCR) analyses unveiled their genetic relatedness, revealing two divergent clusters within each species. To our knowledge, this work reports for the first time the isolation and characterization of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) with potential use as probiotics in aquaculture from rotifer-rearing tanks, which have the potential to optimize turbot larviculture and to introduce novel microbial management approaches for a sustainable aquaculture.- Project number: 262

La creación y el empleo de estos vídeos están dirigidos, en un principio, a los estudiantes universitarios de Grado en Veterinaria que cursan la asignatura de Higiene, Inspección y Seguridad Alimentaria. En este Proyecto se han creado vídeos explicativos que tratan sobre: (i) los controles oficiales realizados por los Técnicos Superiores Veterinarios de Mercamadrid; (ii) los riesgos sanitarios asociados al consumo de pescados, crustáceos y moluscos; (iii) la frescura del pescado; (iv) el etiquetado del pescado; (v) la identificación de especies de pescado y marisco; (vi) la prevención de fraudes en la comercialización de pescados y mariscos; y (vii) la autentificación de pescados fileteados mediante técnicas de análisis. Item Genomic and Functional Evaluation of Two Lacticaseibacillus paracasei and Two Lactiplantibacillus plantarum Strains, Isolated from a Rearing Tank of Rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis), as Probiotics for Aquaculture(Genes, 2024) Contente, Diogo; Díaz Formoso, Lara; Feito Hermida, Javier; Hernández Cruza, Pablo Elpidio; Muñoz Atienza, Estefanía; Borrero Del Pino, Juan; Poeta, Patrícia; Cintas Izarra, Luis Miguel; Figueras, AntonioAquaculture plays a crucial role in meeting the increasing global demand for food and protein sources. However, its expansion is followed by increasing challenges, such as infectious disease outbreaks and antibiotic misuse. The present study focuses on the genetic and functional analyses of two Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (BF3 and RT4) and two Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (BF12 and WT12) strains isolated from a rotifer cultivation tank used for turbot larviculture. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and bioinformatics analyses confirmed their probiotic potential, the absence of transferable antibiotic resistance genes, and the absence of virulence and pathogenicity factors. Bacteriocin mining identified a gene cluster encoding six plantaricins, suggesting their role in the antimicrobial activity exerted by these strains. In vitro cell-free protein synthesis (IV-CFPS) analyses was used to evaluate the expression of the plantaricin genes. The in vitro-synthesized class IIb (two-peptide bacteriocins) plantaricin E/F (PlnE/F) exerted antimicrobial activity against three indicator microorganisms, including the well-known ichthyopathogen Lactococcus garvieae. Furthermore, MALDI-TOF MS on colonies detected the presence of a major peptide that matches the dimeric form of plantaricins E (PlnE) and F (PlnF). This study emphasizes the importance of genome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis for evaluating aquaculture probiotic candidates. Moreover, it provides valuable insights into their genetic features and antimicrobial mechanisms, paving the way for their application as probiotics in larviculture, which is a major bottleneck in aquaculture.Item Antibiotic Resistance Genes, Virulence Factors, and Biofilm Formation in Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus spp. Isolates from European Hakes (Merluccius merluccius, L.) Caught in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean(Pathogens, 2023) Díaz Formoso, Lara; Silva, Vanessa; Contente, Diogo; Feito Hermida, Javier; Hernández Cruza, Pablo Elpidio; Borrero Del Pino, Juan; Igrejas, Gilberto; Del Campo, Rosa; Muñoz Atienza, Estefanía; Poeta, Patrícia; Cintas Izarra, Luis MiguelThe indiscriminate use of antibiotics has contributed to the dissemination of multiresistant bacteria, which represents a public health concern. The aim of this work was to characterize 27 coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) isolated from eight wild Northeast Atlantic hakes (Merluccius merluccius, L.) and taxonomically identified as Staphylococcus epidermidis (n = 16), Staphylococcus saprophyticus (n = 4), Staphylococcus hominis (n = 3), Staphylococcus pasteuri (n = 2), Staphylococcus edaphicus (n = 1), and Staphylococcus capitis (n = 1). Biofilm formation was evaluated with a microtiter assay, antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed using the disk diffusion method, and antibiotic resistance and virulence determinants were detected by PCR. Our results showed that all staphylococci produced biofilms and that 92.6% of the isolates were resistant to at least one antibiotic, mainly penicillin (88.8%), fusidic acid (40.7%), and erythromycin (37%). The penicillin resistance gene (blaZ) was detected in 66.6% (18) of the isolates, of which 10 also carried resistance genes to macrolides and lincosamides (mphC, msr(A/B), lnuA, or vgaA), 4 to fusidic acid (fusB), and 3 to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (dfrA). At least one virulence gene (scn, hla, SCCmecIII, and/or SCCmecV) was detected in 48% of the isolates. This study suggests that wild European hake destined for human consumption could act as a vector of CoNS carrying antibiotic resistance genes and/or virulence factors.Item MicroMundo@UCM: Ciencia ciudadana y aprendizaje-servicio frente a la resistencia a antibióticos desde la comunidad educativa(2023) Jiménez Cid, Víctor; Ayllón Santiago, Tania; Amaro Torres, Francisco; Calvo De Pablo, Pilar; Domenech Lucas, Miriam; De Francisco Martínez, Patricia; Patiño Álvarez, Aurora Belén; Vázquez Estévez, María Covadonga Inmaculada; Barbero Úriz, Óscar; Blesa Esteban, Alba Mercedes; Borrajo López, Ana; Cortés Prieto, Isabel; Fernández-Acero Bascones, Teresa; Fernández-Vega Granado, Alejandro; García Pastor, Lucía; González Rubio, Gema; Lavilla García, Beatriz; López Montesino, Sara; Martínez López, Raquel María; Molina Martín, María; Mascaraque Martín, Victoria; Parra Giraldo, Claudia Marcela; Rodríguez Escudero, María Isabel; Rodríguez Fernández, Carmina; Román González, Elvira; Rubio Lozano, Alba Victoria; Del Val Oriza, Elba; Valentí Sanguino, Marta; Bezos Garrido, Javier; Borrero Del Pino, Juan; Díaz Formoso, Lara; Escudero García-Calderón, José Antonio; García Benzaquén, Nerea; González Zorn, Bruno; Hipólito Carrillo de Albornoz, Alberto; Muñoz Atienza, Estefanía; Pérez Sancho, Marta; Pulido Vadillo, Mario; Romero Martínez, Beatriz; Sánchez Méndez, Irene; Serna Bernaldo, Carlos; Suárez Rodríguez, Mónica; Vergara González, Ester; Arias López, Patricia; González de Figueras, Carolina; Prieto Orzanco, Alicia; Sempere García, Julio; Gil Serna, Jessica; Maestro García-Donas, María Beatriz; García García, Aina; Gil Serna, JessicaSegún ha establecido la OMS y la Asamblea de las Naciones Unidas, la resistencia a los antibióticos es una de las prioridades en Salud Global para el s. XXI, al mismo nivel que la preparación frente a pandemias emergentes y el desarrollo de vacunas y tratamientos frente a tuberculosis, malaria, HIV y otras enfermedades infecciosas. El abordaje de estos problemas sólo será eficaz desde la perspectiva multidisciplinar One Health (Un Mundo: Una Salud), que integra Salud Medioambiental, Animal y Humana. Desde 2016 la UCM ha sido pionera en implicar a las comunidades universitaria y preuniversitaria en la estrategia de aprendizaje activo mediante ApS “MicroMundo” (www.ucm.es/small-world-initiative), un proyecto multidisciplinar basado en ApS en el ámbito de la Biomedicina. Se trata de una adaptación al ApS de la estrategia internacional de studentsourcing Tiny Earth (www.tinyearthnet.org). MicroMundo implica a estudiantes de ESO y Bachillerato a participar como investigadores en un proyecto real para el descubrimiento de nuevos antibióticos a partir de muestras de suelos. El objetivo final del servicio es acercar la cultura científica, la perspectiva One Health y la investigación biomédica a la sociedad. Para ello, colaboramos con una red de colegios e institutos de la Comunidad de Madrid. Un objetivo adicional es fomentar la vocación por Grados STEM y por la I+D. Para lograr estos objetivos, los estudiantes universitarios, objeto del aprendizaje, se responsabilizan de facilitar a los jóvenes estudiantes el entrenamiento y material necesarios para llevar a cabo los experimentos, así como dirigir el trabajo de investigación y diversas estrategias de divulgación hacia la comunidad. El éxito del proyecto en la UCM ha inspirado su implementación en más de 30 universidades en España y Portugal y ha merecido el Premio PRAN 2021 a la comunicación y sensibilización de la población sobre la resistencia a los antibióticos. En esta publicación presentamos la memoria final del proyecto MicroMundo@UCM realizado durante el curso 2022-23 en 33 centros educativos de la Comunidad de Madrid.- Project number: 321
