Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 contains a novel degradation pathway for limonene.
Strain DCL14, which is able to grow on limonene as a sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from a freshwater sediment sample. This organism was identified as a strain of Rhodococcus erythropolis by chemotaxonomic and genetic studies. R. erythropolis DCL14 also assimilated the terpenes limonene-1,2-epoxide, limonene-1,2-diol, carveol, carvone, and (-)-menthol, while perillyl alcohol was...
متن کاملLimonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase from Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 belongs to a novel class of epoxide hydrolases.
An epoxide hydrolase from Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 catalyzes the hydrolysis of limonene-1,2-epoxide to limonene-1,2-diol. The enzyme is induced when R. erythropolis is grown on monoterpenes, reflecting its role in the limonene degradation pathway of this microorganism. Limonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase was purified to homogeneity. It is a monomeric cytoplasmic enzyme of 17 kDa, and its N-ter...
متن کاملDegradation of hydrocarbons and alcohols at different temperatures and salinities by Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14.
Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 cells were able to metabolise C5-C16 hydrocarbons and C1-C12 alcohols as sole carbon and energy sources, both at 15 and 28 degrees C. Metabolic activity was also observed at 1.00%, 1.95% and 2.50% sodium chloride. Almost complete degradation of n-, iso- and cyclo-alkanes and aromatic compounds present in fuel oil was achieved after 9 months, 60% being consumed in ...
متن کاملCharacterization of a (2R,3R)-2,3-Butanediol Dehydrogenase from Rhodococcus erythropolis WZ010.
The gene encoding a (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase from Rhodococcus erythropolis WZ010 (ReBDH) was over-expressed in Escherichia coli and the resulting recombinant ReBDH was successfully purified by Ni-affinity chromatography. The purified ReBDH in the native form was found to exist as a monomer with a calculated subunit size of 37180, belonging to the family of the zinc-containing alcoho...
متن کاملThe complete alk sequences of Rhodococcus erythropolis from Lake Baikal
BACKGROUND Rhodococci are bacteria able to degrade a wide range of hydrocarbons, including the alkanes present in crude oil, due to alk genes in their genomes. FINDINGS Genome sequencing of DNA from Rhodococcus erythropolis strain 4 (obtained from a deep-water bitumen mound) revealed four alk genes, and the predicted amino acid sequences coded by these genes were highly conserved, having sect...
