聚羟基脂肪酸酯合成酶的改造和代谢途径构建的研究进展

聚羟基脂肪酸酯(Polyhydroxyalkanoates,PHA)是许多细菌在非平衡生长条件下在胞内积累的以颗粒状态存在的碳源和能源储藏物质。PHA因其具有生物可降解性、生物相容性等许多良好的材料性质、可以作为化学合成塑料未来的替代品而引起广泛关注。但由短链脂肪酸或单一脂肪酸单体合成的PHA的材料性质具有局限性,需要利用多种单体合成满足实际需求的PHA材料。PHA合成酶的底物特异性和PHA合成代谢途径决定着PHA的单体组成情况,进而影响着PHA的理化特性和材料性能。因此需要对PHA合成酶进行改造,扩展其对底物的特异性。另一方面需要构建新的PHA合成代谢途径,能合成出一些不常见的且性能优良的PHA材料。综述了近些年对PHA合成酶改造的研究及PHA代谢途径构建的研究进展。

Methanogenic bacteria in mangrove sediments

The occurrence of methanogenic bacteria in the Kodiakkarai (10° 18 N; 79° 52 E) mangrove sediments, whereAvicennia spp are predominant, was studied. Trimethylamine under N₂:CO₂ (80:20% v/v) was used as the substrate. Most Probable Number (MPN) of methanogenic bacteria was determined for a period of one year from July 1987 to June 1988 with monthly sampling. The methanogenic bacterial populations were found to be at the maximum of 1.1 × 10⁵ MPN gm^–1 of wet sediment during August 1987 and from February to June 1988. The bacterial numbers were found to decrease during October to December 1987 with a minimal value of 3.6 × 10² MPN gm^–1 during December 1987. Environmental factors were correlated with the methanogenic bacterial population.

Isolation of several anti-stress genes from a mangrove plant Avicennia marina

In order to isolate anti-stress genes from mangrove plants, a cDNA library of Avicennia marina was constructed and screened for anti-stress genes by a functional expression screening with Escherichia coli cells. Several stress-related gene homologues, such as chaperonin-60, clpP protease of the clp/Hsp 100 family of chaperones, ubiquitin, eEF1A, drought-induced AtDi19 gene of Arabidopsis thaliana, and secretory peroxidase, were successfully isolated.     

Isolation and characterization of arsenite-oxidizing bacteria from arsenic-contaminated soils in Thailand

Two hundred and eighty-eight arsenic-resistant bacteria were isolated by an enrichment culture method from a total of 69 arsenic-contaminated soil-samples collected from Dantchaeng district in Suphanburi province (47 samples), and from Ron Phiboon district in Nakhon Sri Thammarat province (22 samples), in Central and Southern Thailand, respectively. Twenty-four of the 288 isolated arsenic-resistant bacteria were found to be arsenite-oxidizing bacteria. On the basis of their morphological, cultural, physiological, biochemical and chemotaxonomic characteristics, and supported by phylogenetic analysis based upon their 16S rRNA gene sequences, they were divided into five groups, within the genera Acinetobacter, Flavobacterium, Pseudomonas, Sinorhizobium and Sphingomonas, respectively. Within genera, phylogenetic analysis using the 16S rRNA gene sequences suggested that they were comprised of at least ten species, five isolates being closely related to known bacteria (Acinetobacter calcoaceticus NCCB 22016^T, Pseudomonas plecoglossicida FPC951^T, Ps. knackmussii B13^T, Sinorhizobium morelense Lc04^T, and Sphingomonas subterranea IFO16086^T). The other five proposed species are likely to be new species closely related to Flavobacterium johnsoniae, Sinorhizobium morelense, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus and Pseudomonas plecoglossicida, but this awaits further characterization for confirmation of the taxonomic status. No overlap in isolated species or strains was observed between the two sites. The strain distribution and characterization are described.     

Isolation and characterization of acetonitrile utilizing bacteria

Summary Bacteria utilizing high concentrations of acetonitrile as the sole carbon source were isolated and identified asChromobacterium sp. andPseudomonas aeruginosa. Maximum growth was attained after 96 h of incubation andP. aeruginosa grew slightly faster thanChromobacterium sp. The strains were able to grow and oxidize acetonitrile at concentrations as high as 600 mM. However, higher concentrations inhibited growth and oxygen uptake. Degradation studies with (¹⁴C)acetonitrile indicated 57% of acetonitrile was degraded byPseudomonas aeruginosa as compared to 43% byChromobacterium. The isolates utilized different nitrile compounds as carbon substrates.     

薇甘菊根际可培养固氮菌和氨化细菌的分离鉴定与促生作用

【目的】固氮菌和氨化细菌是氮循环产生生物有效氮的关键起始环节,直接影响了外来入侵植物的生长速度和扩散进程。然而,关于典型入侵植物薇甘菊根际可培养固氮菌和氨化细菌的研究尚未见报道,这在很大程度上制约了我们对薇甘菊根际高效的氮素转化机制的深刻理解。【方法】采用传统平板涂布培养法对野外采集的薇甘菊根际土壤中的可培养固氮菌和氨化细菌进行了分离鉴定,并进行了接种验证实验。【结果】结果表明,入侵植物薇甘菊根际土壤中的固氮菌和氨化细菌的菌群密度显著高于两个本地伴生植物(火炭母和鸡屎藤),其固氮效率及有机氮矿化效率也优于2个本地种;系统发育分析表明：薇甘菊根际的固氮菌菌株归类于5个属,分别为伯克霍尔德氏菌属(Burkholderia)、肠杆菌属(Enterobacter)、植物杆菌属(Phytobacter)、新肠杆菌属(Kosakonia)和根瘤菌属(Rhizobium);氨化细菌归类于7个属,分别为沙雷氏菌属(Serratia)、不动杆菌属(Acinetobacter)、假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas)、博德特氏菌属(Bordetella)、寡养单胞菌属(Stenotrophomonas)、苍...     

Isolation and characterization of endophytic bacteria from soybean (Glycine max) grown in soil treated with glyphosate herbicide

Endophytic bacteria are ubiquitous in most plant species influencing the host fitness by disease suppression, contaminant degradation, and plant growth promotion. This endophytic bacterial community may be affected by crop management such as the use of chemical compounds. For instance, application of glyphosate herbicide is common mainly due to the use of glyphosate-resistant transgenic plants. In this case, the bacterial equilibrium in plant–endophyte interaction could be shifted because some microbial groups are able to use glyphosate as a source of energy and nutrients, whereas this herbicide may be toxic to other groups. Therefore, the aim of this work was to study cultivable and noncultivable endophytic bacterial populations from soybean (Glycine max) plants cultivated in soil with and without glyphosate application (pre-planting). The cultivable endophytic bacterial community recovered from soybean leaves, stems, and roots included Acinetobacter calcoaceticus, A. junii, Burkholderiasp., B. gladioli, Enterobacter sakazaki, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas oryzihabitans, P. straminea, Ralstonia pickettii,and Sphingomonassp. The DGGE (Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis) analysis from soybean roots revealed some groups not observed by isolation that were exclusive for plants cultivated in soil with pre-planting glyphosate application, such as Herbaspirillum sp., and other groups in plants that were cultivated in soil without glyphosate, such as Xanthomonas sp. and Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Furthermore, only two bacterial species were recovered from soybean plants by glyphosate enrichment isolation. They were Pseudomonas oryzihabitans and Burkholderia gladioliwhich showed different sensibility profiles to the glyphosate. These results suggest that the application at pre-planting of the glyphosate herbicide may interfere with the endophytic bacterial communitys equilibrium. This community is composed of different species with the capacity for plant growth promotion and biological control that may be affected. However, the evaluation of this treatment in plant production should be carried out by long-term experiments in field conditions.     

Diversity and abundance of ammonia-oxidizing archaea and bacteria in polluted mangrove sediment

Ammonia oxidation by microorganisms is a critical process in the nitrogen cycle. Recent research results show that ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA) are both abundant and diverse in a range of ecosystems. In this study, we examined the abundance and diversity of AOA and ammonia-oxidizing beta-proteobacteria (AOB) in estuarine sediments in Hong Kong for two seasons using the ammonia monooxygenase A subunit gene (amoA) as molecular biomarker. Relationships between diversity and abundance of AOA and AOB and physicochemical parameters were also explored. AOB were more diverse but less abundant than AOA. A few phylogenetically distinct amoA gene clusters were evident for both AOA and AOB from the mangrove sediment. Pearson moment correlation analysis and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) were used to explore physicochemical parameters potentially important to AOA and AOB. Metal concentrations were proposed to contribute potentially to the distributions of AOA while total phosphorus (TP) was correlated to the distributions of AOB. Quantitative PCR estimates indicated that AOA were more abundant than AOB in all samples, but the ratio of AOA/AOB (from 1.8 to 6.3) was smaller than most other studies by one to two orders. The abundance of AOA or AOB was correlated with pH and temperature while the AOA/AOB ratio was with the concentrations of ammonium. Several physicochemical factors, rather than any single one, affect the distribution patterns suggesting that a combination of factors is involved in shaping the dynamics of AOA and AOB in the mangrove ecosystem.
