Although Bacillus siamensis is valued for plant growth promotion and biocontrol, its lignocellulose-degrading capacity and regulation remain largely unexplored. B. siamensis LSZ23, isolated from humic soil in Inner Mongolia, China, produced a balanced cellulolytic system (CMCase 0.321, β-glucosidase 0.275, avicelase 0.240 and FPase 0.209 U/mL in 24 h LB culture) and reduced sterilised corn straw dry mass by 19.5% within 20 d in solid-state culture (10⁹ CFU/g), with scanning electron microscopy revealing extensive fibre-bundle disruption. Its 4.12 Mb genome (46% GC, 4,120 protein-coding genes) encodes 570 predicted carbohydrate-active enzyme (CAZyme) genes, with marked expansion of glycoside hydrolase family GH1, and harbours 31 orthogroups absent from four reference genomes, notably oligosaccharide ATP-binding cassette transporters and starch-processing enzymes. Upon straw exposure, transcriptomics (173 differentially expressed genes) and metabolomics (1,094 differentially abundant metabolites) indicated coordinated reprogramming rather than simple enzyme amplification: motility and chemotaxis genes were repressed, the biofilm-matrix gene tapA was induced, carbon uptake shifted transcriptionally towards a phosphotransferase system-mediated cellobiose route, and the glutamine synthetase-glutamate synthase pathway and de novo purine biosynthesis were downregulated, consistent with reduced high-cost anabolism. Purine metabolism was jointly significant across both omics. Lignin-derived phenolics accumulated alongside five upregulated MarR-family transcriptional regulators, although their ligand-regulon relationships remain undetermined. These findings provide a multiomics framework for LSZ23-mediated lignocellulose bioconversion and identify it as a candidate hydrolytic partner for straw degrading consortia.</p> 2026-09-22T05:41:05Z Dataset Dataset 10.3389/fmicb.2026.1935834.s001 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Table_1_Multiomics_profiling_of_transcriptional_and_metabolic_responses_of_Bacillus_siamensis_LSZ23_to_corn_straw_docx/33962386 CC BY 4.0
