Benzothiazole degradation by Rhodococcus pyridinovorans strain PA: evidence of a catechol 1,2-dioxygenase activity.
The pathway for biodegradation of benzothiazole (BT) and 2-hydroxybenzothiazole (OBT) by Rhodococcus pyridinovorans strain PA was studied in detail. The kinetics of biodegradation were monitored by in situ (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in parallel with reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Successive oxidations from BT to OBT and then from OBT to dihydroxybenzoth...
متن کاملMonocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon degradation by Rhodococcus sp. strain DK17.
Rhodococcus sp. strain DK17 was isolated from soil and analyzed for the ability to grow on o-xylene as the sole carbon and energy source. Although DK17 cannot grow on m- and p-xylene, it is capable of growth on benzene, phenol, toluene, ethylbenzene, isopropylbenzene, and other alkylbenzene isomers. One UV-generated mutant strain, DK176, simultaneously lost the ability to grow on o-xylene, ethy...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of catechol 1, 2-dioxygenase from Rhodococcus sp. NCIM 2891
The main aim of this study was to purify Catechol 1, 2 dioxygenase from phenol utilizing Rhodococcus sp. NCIM 2891 which is basically an organism used wide for desulfurization purposes like desulfurization of diesel. The organism was cultivated in minimal medium supplemented with 500 mg/L phenol, as a sole carbon source. The temperature of incubation was 30oC at pH 7.0±0.2. The growth and pheno...
متن کاملThe key role of chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase in phytoremoval and degradation of catechol by transgenic Arabidopsis.
Transgenic exploitation of bacterial degradative genes in plants has been considered a favorable strategy for degrading organic pollutants in the environment. The aromatic ring characteristic of these pollutants is mainly responsible for their recalcitrance to degradation. In this study, a Plesiomonas-derived chlorocatechol 1,2-dioxygenase (TfdC) gene (tfdC), capable of cleaving the aromatic ri...
متن کاملCharacterization of catechol 2,3-dioxygenase from Planococcus sp. strain S5 induced by high phenol concentration.
This study aimed at characterization of a new catechol 2,3-dioxygenase isolated from a Gram-positive bacterium able to utilize phenol as the sole carbon and energy source. Planococcus sp. strain S5 grown on 1 or 2 mM phenol showed activity of both a catechol 1,2- and catechol 2,3-dioxygenase while at a higher concentrations of phenol only catechol 2,3-dioxygenase activity was observed. The enzy...
