Solubilization of insoluble inorganic phosphate by Burkholderia cepacia DA23 isolated from cultivated soil

چکیده
A mineral phosphate solubilizing bacterium, Burkholderia cepacia DA23 has been isolated from cultivated soils. Phosphate-solubilizing activities of the strain against three types of insoluble phosphate were quantitatively determined. When 3% of glucose concentration was used for carbon source, the strain had a marked mineral phosphate-solubilizing activity. Mineral phosphate solubilization was directly related to the pH drop by the strain. Analysis of the culture medium by high pressure liquid chromatography identified gluconic acid as the main organic acid released by Burkholderia cepacia DA23. Gluconic acid production was apparently the result of the glucose dehydrogenase activity and glucose dehydrogenase was affected by phosphate regulation.

Expression of a mineral phosphate solubilizing gene from Erwinia herbicola in two rhizobacterial strains.
A genetic construction was carried out using the broad host range vector pKT230 and plasmid pMCG898, which encodes the Erwinia herbicola pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) synthase, a gene involved in mineral phosphate solubilization (mps). The final construction was transformed and expressed in Escherichia coli MC1061, and the recombinant plasmids were transferred to Burkholderia cepacia IS-16 and...

متن کاملThe protons of gluconic acid are the major factor responsible for the dissolution of tricalcium phosphate by Burkholderia cepacia CC-Al74.
Burkholderia cepacia CC-Al74 with a high ability for solubilizing tricalcium phosphate (TCP) was used to study the P-solubilization mechanism. We collected filtrates able to solubilize TCP from the cultures of strain CC-Al74 and demonstrated that the P-solubilization increased from 0 microg ml(-1) to 200 microg ml(-1) during exponential growth, when the pH decreased from 8 to 3. HPLC-analysis r...

The contribution of microbial depolymerase has received much attention because of its potential in biopolymer degradation. In this study, the P(3HB) depolymerase enzyme of a newly isolated Burkholderia cepacia DP1 from soil in Penang, Malaysia, was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). The factors affecting P(3HB) depolymerase enzyme production were studied using one-variable-at-a...
