Anaerobic degradation of 2-aminobenzoate (anthranilic acid) by denitrifying bacteria.
In the presence of oxygen many aminoaromatic compounds polymerize to form recalcitrant macromolecules. To circumvent undesirable oxidation reactions, the anaerobic biodegradation of a simple member of this class of compounds was investigated. Two strains of bacteria were isolated which degrade 2-aminobenzoate anaerobically under denitrifying conditions, with nitrate as the terminal electron acc...
متن کاملAnaerobic degradation of pimelate by newly isolated denitrifying bacteria.
A C7 dicarboxylic (pimelic) acid derivative is postulated as an intermediate in anaerobic degradation of benzoate. Four strains of Gram-negative, nitrate-reducing bacteria capable of growth with both pimelate and benzoate as sole carbon and energy source were isolated. The metabolism of strain LP-1, which was enriched from activated sludge with pimelate as substrate, was studied in detail. This...
متن کاملAnaerobic degradation of 2-aminobenzoic acid (anthranilic acid) via benzoyl-coenzyme A (CoA) and cyclohex-1-enecarboxyl-CoA in a denitrifying bacterium.
The enzymes catalyzing the initial reactions in the anaerobic degradation of 2-aminobenzoic acid (anthranilic acid) were studied with a denitrifying Pseudomonas sp. anaerobically grown with 2-aminobenzoate and nitrate as the sole carbon and energy sources. Cells grown on 2-aminobenzoate are simultaneously adapted to growth with benzoate, whereas cells grown on benzoate degrade 2-aminobenzoate s...
متن کاملAnaerobic degradation of acetone and higher ketones via carboxylation by newly isolated denitrifying bacteria.
Five strains of Gram-negative denitrifying bacteria that used various ketones as sole carbon and energy sources were isolated from activated sludge from a municipal sewage plant. Three strains are related to the genus Pseudomonas; two non-motile species have not yet been affiliated. All strains grew well with ketones and fatty acids (C2 to C7), but sugars were seldom utilized. The physiology of...
متن کاملAnaerobic benzene degradation by bacteria
Benzene is a widespread and toxic contaminant. The fate of benzene in contaminated aquifers seems to be primarily controlled by the abundance of oxygen: benzene is aerobically degraded at high rates by ubiquitous microorganisms, and the oxygen-dependent pathways for its breakdown were elucidated more than 50 years ago. In contrast, benzene was thought to be persistent under anoxic conditions un...
