Biotransformations of 2-methylisoborneol by camphor-degrading bacteria.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Many camphor-degrading bacteria that are able to transform 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) have been identified. Three of these strains have been examined in detail. Rhodococcus ruber T1 metabolizes camphor through 6-hydroxycamphor but converts 2-MIB to 3-hydroxy-2-MIB. Pseudomonas putida G1, which metabolizes camphor through 5-hydroxycamphor, converts MIB primarily to 6-hydroxy-2-MIB. Rhodococcus wratislaviensis DLC-cam converts 2-MIB through 5-hydroxy-2-MIB to 5-keto-2-MIB. Together, these three strains produce metabolites resulting from hydroxylation at all of the three available secondary carbons on the six-member ring of 2-MIB.

Biodegradation of 2-methylenebornane (2-MB) by Enterobacter cloaceae, which is one of the dehydration products of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) led to 2-MIB, 2methylcamphene (2-MC) and an unidentifiable oxidation product, in addition to the previously reported camphor and lactonic compound. On the other hand, 2-MC, which is another dehydration product of 2-MIB was oxidatively degraded to fenchone ...
متن کاملThe role of flavor and fragrance chemicals in TRPA1 (transient receptor potential cation channel, member A1) activity associated with allergies
TRPA1 has been proposed to be associated with diverse sensory allergic reactions, including thermal (cold) nociception, hearing and allergic inflammatory conditions. Some naturally occurring compounds are known to activate TRPA1 by forming a Michael addition product with a cysteine residue of TRPA1 through covalent protein modification and, in consequence, to cause allergic reactions. The anti-...
متن کاملBiodegradation of PAHs by Burkholderia sp. VITRSB1 Isolated from Marine Sediments
The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) pollution to the environment is a major threat to the living organisms, and hence the degradation of these PAHs is necessary. Studies on PAHs degrading bacteria have focussed on terrestrial microbes and the potential of marine derived microbes is undermined. Herein we report the isolation and characterization of PAHs degrading Burkholderia sp. from la...
