The paper describes the selection of chromate-resistant mutants of the yeast Pichia guilliermondii with a higher chromate-reducing activity and reports the EPR-study of Cr(V)-generation in the extra-cellular medium during
the reduction of chromate by the yeast culture. It is shown that the reduction of chromate to Cr(III) species runs through
the extra-cellular generation of Cr(V)-intermediate(s), thus supporting the assumption about the existence of an extra-cellular
pathway of Cr(VI)-reduction. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the chromate-resistance phenotype of tested mutants correlates
with a lower stationary level of Cr(V)-species in the medium. It is thus suggested that isolated mutants can be used as sources
of Cr(III)-biocomplexes due to their ability to effectively reduce chromate to Cr(III)-chelates with potential pharmacological
applications. 相似文献

Biological reduction of carcinogenic chromate has been extensively studied in eukaryotic cells partly because the reduction produces stable chromium(III)-DNA adducts, which are mutagenic. Microbial reduction of chromate has been studied for bioremediation purposes, but little is known about the reduction mechanism. In eukaryotic cells chromate is mainly reduced non-enzymatically by ascorbate, which is usually absent in bacterial cells. We have characterized the reduction of chromate by a flavin reductase (Fre) from Escherichia coli with flavins. The Fre-flavin system rapidly reduced chromate, whereas chemical reduction by NADH and glutathione was very slow. Thus, enzymatic chromate reduction is likely the dominant mechanism in bacterial cells. Furthermore, the end-product was a soluble and stable Cr(III)-NAD(+) complex, instead of Cr(III) precipitate. Since intracellularly generated Cr(III) forms adducts with DNA, protein, glutathione, and ascorbate in eukaryotic cells, we suggest that the produced Cr(III) is primarily complexed to NAD(+), DNA, and other cellular components inside bacteria. 相似文献

AbstractThe present study investigates the influence of different Cr(III)-organic compounds [Cr(III)-citrate and Cr(III)-histidine] in growth-nonsupportive exposure medium on the uptake and localisation of chromium in the cell structure of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisae. The amount of total accumulated chromium in yeast cells and the distribution of chromium between the yeast cell walls and spheroplasts were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. Chromium accumulation potential was shown to depend on treatment time, metal concentration as well as the nature of the bound ligand. Chromium uptake was characterised by a time-dependent increase of total chromium which suggests that the amount of cell-accumulated chromium also tended to increase over time. Cellular chromium accumulation (mg g?1 dry wt) of Cr(III)-histidine is higher than Cr(III)-citrate. The pH dependence pattern of chromium accumulation is similar for both of the Cr(III)-organic compounds: pH 6.5>pH 5>pH 8. Substantial differences were found between the two Cr(III)-organic compounds, in the total chromium accumulation as well as in the distribution in yeast cell walls and spheroplasts. 相似文献

Despite chromium nicotinate’s popular use as a chromium nutritional supplement, the structure and composition of chromium
nicotinate have only been poorly described. As solid chromium nicotinate is intractable, being insoluble or unstable in common
solvents, studies on the solid have been limited, and studies of the solution from which the “compound” precipitates have
additionally provided little additional data. The results of mass spectrometric and spectroscopic investigations designed
to further elucidate the structure and composition of chromium nicotinate are described. The results demonstrated that the
three common methods for producing “chromium nicotinate” all yield different compounds, all of which are polymers of Cr(III),
oxygen-bound nicotinate, hydroxide, and water. Implications for interpreting results of nutritional studies of “chromium nicotinate”
are discussed. 相似文献

Arthrobacter sp. SUK 1201, a potent isolate reported from chromite mine overburden of Orissa, India, has been evaluated for Cr(VI) reduction with immobilized whole cells. For whole-cell immobilization, Ba-alginate was found to be most effective, and the Cr(VI) reduction potential was maximum in minimal salts (MS) medium with cells immobilized in 2% alginate. Fourier transform infrared spectra of depolymerized cells has failed to detect any sign of complexation of Cr(VI) or its reduced products with the cell mass. Reduction efficiency of the beads increased with increase in cell load, but decreased with increase in Cr(VI) concentration in the medium. Glycerol was the most potent electron donor for chromate reduction, followed by glucose and peptone. Optimum pH for Cr(VI) reduction was 7.0, and the process was inhibited by metal ions such as Ni(II), Co(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), and Mn(II) but not by Cu(II) and Fe(III). Similarly, CCCP (carbonyl cyanide-m-chlorophenylhydrazone), DCC (N,N,-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide), sodium azide, and sodium fluoride were inhibitory in nature, whereas chromate reduction was unaffected in the presence of DNP (2,4-dinitrophenol). Moreover, immobilized cells of SUK 1201 remained biologically active for four consecutive cycles, accompanied with an initial increase in cell number in the beads, although a decline in chromate reduction was recorded from the second cycle onward. Immobilized cells of Arthrobacter sp. SUK 1201, therefore, could be a potential tool for long-term uses in chromium detoxification. 相似文献

Microorganisms can reduce toxic chromate to less toxic trivalent chromium [Cr(III)]. Besides Cr(OH)3 precipitates, some soluble organo-Cr(III) complexes are readily formed upon microbial, enzymatic, and chemical reduction
of chromate. However, the biotransformation of the organo-Cr(III) complexes has not been characterized. We have previously
reported the formation of a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-Cr(III) complex after enzymatic reduction of chromate. Although the NAD+-Cr(III) complex was stable under sterile conditions, microbial cells were identified as precipitates in a non-sterile NAD+-Cr(III) solution after extended incubation. The most dominant bacterium PTX1 was isolated and assigned to Leifsonia genus by phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence. PTX1 grew slowly on NAD+ with a doubling time of 17 h, and even more slowly on the NAD+-Cr(III) complex with an estimated doubling time of 35 days. The slow growth suggests that PTX1 passively grew on trace NAD+ dissociated from the NAD+-Cr(III) complex, facilitating further dissociation of the complex and formation of Cr(III) precipitates. Thus, organo-Cr(III)
complexes might be an intrinsic link of the chromium biogeochemical cycle; they can be produced during chromate reduction
and then further mineralized by microorganisms. 相似文献

The study presented in this article investigated the influence of different Cr(III) and Cr(VI) compounds in the cultivation medium on the uptake and localization of chromium in the cell structure of the yeast Candida intermedia. The morphology of the yeast cell surface was observed by the scanning electron microscopy. Results demonstrated that the growth inhibitory concentration of Cr(III) in the cultivation medium induced changes in the yeast cell shape and affected the budding pattern, while inhibitory concentration of Cr(VI) did not cause any visible effects on morphological properties of the yeast cells. The amount of total accumulated chromium in yeast cells and the distribution of chromium between the yeast cell walls and spheroplasts were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy. No significant differences were found neither in total chromium accumulation nor in the distribution of chromium in yeast cell walls and spheroplasts between the two of Cr(VI) compounds. Conversely, substantial differences between Cr(III) compounds were demonstrated in the total uptake as well as the localization of chromium in yeast cells. 相似文献

AbstractChromium speciation in the presence of organic chromium(III) complexes was investigated using solid-phase extraction. The adsorptions of Cr(VI) and Cr(III) on alumina and pumice powder were studied. Maximum sorption of Cr(VI) was obtained by alumina (90.22%), while Cr(III) was highly adsorbed onto pumice powder (86.65%). This result shows that pumice may be a new and promising adsorbent for Cr(III). The experimental equilibrium data for Cr(VI) adsorption onto alumina and Cr(III) sorption onto pumice were analysed using Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. The separation and adsorption of Cr(VI), Cr(III) and five organic chromium(III) complexes onto pumice and alumina at different pH values were evaluated. Ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA), oxalate, citrate, glycine, alanine and 8-hydroxyqinoline were used as ligands. Sorption of alanine and ethylenediaminetetraacetate complexes was higher onto alumina than pumice at pH>3. The enhancement of adsorption of chromium(III) complexes onto pumice was achieved by surface modification of pumice using a surfactant, namely hexadecyltrimethylammoniumbromür (HDTMA). The presence of surfactant enhanced the adsorption of Cr(III) citrate, oxalate, glycine and 8-hydroxyquinoline complexes onto pumice. However, the adsorption of EDTA and alanine complexes decreased, with ratio of 13.40% and 4.00% respectively. Here we demonstrate that chromium speciation methods depending on adsorption onto various adsorbents including alumina may lead erroneous results. Analytical measurements were performed by flame AAS, data were obtained by standard addition method. 相似文献

Based on the fluorescence quenching of Terbium (III)‐sodium hexametaphosphate (Tb/SHMP) chelates in the presence chromate (III), a sensitive fluorimetric method was developed for the determination of trace amounts of chromium (III) in aqueous solutions. Under the optimum conditions, the linear calibration graph was obtained (R = 0.996). The linear range and detection limit of Cr (III) were 7.69 × 10?7 to 1.15 × 10?4 mol L?1 and 4.50 × 10?7 mol L?1, respectively. The proposed method had a wider linear range and was proved to be very sensitive, rapid and simple. The method was applied successfully to the determination of chromium (III) in the synthetic samples and real water samples. Moreover, the reaction mechanism was discussed through the fluorescence lifetime and proved to be dynamic quenching behavior. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Bioreduction of Cr(VI) to less toxic Cr(III) by chromate-reducing bacteria has offered an ecological and economical option for chromate detoxification. The present study reports isolation of chromate-resistant bacterial strain Cr8 from chromium slag, identified as Pseudomonas stutzeri, based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing and their potential use in Cr(VI) reduction. The reduced product associated with bacterial cell was characterized by scanning electron microscopy–energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. At initial concentrations of 100 and 200 mg L?1 Cr(VI), P. stutzeri Cr8 reduced Cr(VI) completely within 24 h, whereas it reduced almost 1000 mg L?1 Cr(VI) at the end of 120 h. Further, soil column leaching experiments were performed and found that bacterial cells reduced Cr(VI) leachate at faster rate that almost disappeared at the end of 168 h. The leachate precipitates also revealed efficient chromate bioreduction. The remediation process utilizing P. stutzeri could be considered as a viable alternative to reduce Cr(VI) contamination, especially emanating from the overburden dumps of chromite ores and mine drainage. 相似文献

The cellular reduction of chromate(VI) was studied by electron spin resonance spectrometry. Incubation of Chinese hamster V-79 cells with Na2CrO4 resulted in the formation of both chromium(V) and chromium(III) complex in a manner dependent on time (30 min-2 h) and concentration (50-500 microM). Following removal of extracellular chromate, the level of chromium(V) complex decreased quickly during the first hour but more slowly for the next hour, whereas the level of chromium(III) remained unchanged, indicating that chromium(III) is the ultimate ion of this metal in cells. Alkaline elution studies demonstrated that treatment of cells with Na2CrO4 induced DNA single-strand breaks that decreased quickly and DNA-protein crosslinks that persisted for 2 h after removal of this metal. These results suggest that the cellular levels of chromium(V) and chromium(III) may be associated with the formation of DNA damage induced by chromium (VI). 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to assess the chromium (Cr) distribution in chromium-rich brewer’s yeast cell. The chromium
concentrations in the cell wall and protoplast fractions of the chromium-rich yeast were determined by neutron activation
analysis (NAA). Moreover, the combined state of chromium and amino acid content in the Cr-rich brewer’s yeasts was analyzed
and measured. The experimental results indicate that the introduction of water-soluble chromium (III) salt as a component
of the culture medium for yeasts results in a substantial amount of chromium absorbed through the cell wall by the yeast,
among which 80.9% are accumulated in the protoplast. It implies that, under optimal conditions, yeasts are capable of accumulating
large amounts of chromium and incorporating chromium into organic compounds. 相似文献

Intracellular chromium reduction 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Two steps are involved in the uptake of Cr(VI): (1) the diffusion of the anion CrO4(2-) through a facilitated transport system, presumably the non-specific anion carrier and (2) the intracellular reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III). The intracellular reduction of Cr(VI), keeping the cytoplasmic concentration of Cr(VI) low, facilitates accumulation of chromate from extracellular medium into the cell. In the present paper, a direct demonstration of intracellular chromium reduction is provided by means of electron paramagnetic (spin) resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Incubation of metabolically active rat thymocytes with chromate originates a signal which can be attributed to a paramagnetic species of chromium, Cr(V) or Cr(III). The EPR signal is originated by intracellular reduction of chromium since: (1) it is observed only when cells are incubated with chromate, (2) it is present even after extensive washings of the cells in a chromium-free medium; (3) it is abolished when cells are incubated with drugs able to reduce the glutathione pool, i.e., diethylmaleate or phorone; and (4) it is abolished when cells are incubated in the presence of a specific inhibitor of the anion carrier, 4-acetamido-4'-isothiocyanatostilbene-2-2'-disulfonic acid. 相似文献

Chromate-resistant mutants of the non-conventional yeast Pichia guilliermondii L2 were selected by different methods. The isolated mutants were capable of better growth and higher biomass yield at toxic
(1.8–2.4 mM) chromate concentrations than the parent strain. The capacity of the mutants for extracellular chromate reduction
and chelation of Cr(III) in the culture liquid was demonstrated. The effectiveness of these processes was shown to correlate
with the resistance of P. guilliermondii strains to chromate. Extracellular metabolites of the yeast cells cultivated without chromate were shown to be capable of
reducing chromate and forming stable soluble Cr(III)-biocomplexes. 相似文献

铬(Chromium,Cr)是过渡金属元素,在自然界中以六价[CrO_4~(2-),Cr_2O_7~(2-),Cr(Ⅵ)]和三价[Cr(OH)_3,Cr(Ⅲ)]为主。很多微生物在长期铬胁迫的条件下,进化出了一系列铬转化和抗性机制。微生物对铬的转化包括Cr(Ⅵ)的还原和Cr(Ⅲ)的氧化。微生物的Cr(Ⅵ)还原可以将毒性强的六价铬转化为毒性弱或无毒的三价铬,这类微生物有较强的土壤和水体铬污染治理潜力。Cr(Ⅲ)的氧化也在铬的生物地球化学循环过程中起着至关重要的作用。除了Cr(Ⅵ)的还原,微生物对铬的抗性机制还有:(1)减少摄入;(2)外排;(3)清除胞内氧化压力;(4)DNA修复。本文主要介绍微生物的铬转化和抗性机制,以及其在铬污染生物修复中应用的最新研究进展。 相似文献

We isolated four cultures of chromate resistant, unicellular, non-motile green algae from disposal sites of the paper-pulp
and electroplating industries. These algae were maintained in Tris-acetate-glycerophosphate medium containing 30 μM K2Cr2O7. The morphological features as well as analysis of the 500-bp fragment of 18S rDNA (NS 12 region) showed that these isolates
belong to Chlorella spp. These isolates showed EC50 values for chromate ranging from 60 to 125 μM. Uptake studies with radioactive 51Cr(VI) showed that 10–19% of total radioactivity was intracellular, and 1–2% was bound to the cell wall. The rest of the activity
remained in the medium, suggesting that resistance was not related to accumulation of Cr(VI) in the cells. Interestingly,
when these isolates were grown in the presence of 30 μM of K2Cr2O7, a decrease in the Cr(VI) concentration in the medium was observed. Only live cells could deplete Cr(VI) from the supernatant,
suggesting the presence of chromium reduction activity in these Chlorella isolates. Cr(VI) reduction activity of the cells of Chlorella was stimulated by light as well as by acetate and glycerophosphate. Treatment of Chlorella cells with 3-(3,4 dichlorophenyl),1,1dimethyl urea (DCMU) did not affect the Cr(VI) reduction. However, if the cells were
treated with sodium azide, Cr(VI) reduction was severely affected. Though chromate resistance has been well documented in
algae, the information on chromate reduction by algae is scant. This paper discusses the Cr(VI) reduction by Cr(VI) resistant
Chlorella, which may find a use in the effective bioremediation of Cr(VI). 相似文献

Hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) is regularly introduced into the environment through diverse anthropogenic activities. It is highly toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic, and because of its solubility in water, chromate contamination can be difficult to contain. Bacteria can reduce chromate to insoluble and less toxic trivalent chromium Cr(III), and thus increasing attention is paid to chromate bioremediation to reduce its ecotoxicological impacts. In this study, the factorial design 23 was employed to optimize critical parameters responsible for higher Cr(VI) removal by a bacterial consortium. The factors considered were pH, temperature, and inoculum size at two markedly different levels. All three dependent variables have significant effect on Cr(VI) reduction. Optimal Cr(VI) removal by the bacterial consortium occurred at pH 9, temperature 37°C, and inoculum size OD = 3. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed a high coefficient of determination (R2) value of 0.984, thus ensuring a satisfactory adjustment of the second-order regression model with the experimental data. In addition, the effect of bioaugmentation of Cr(VI)-polluted soil microcosms with the bacterial consortium was investigated using the best factor levels. Contaminated soil by 20 and 60 mg/Kg of Cr(VI) showed reductions of 83% and 65% of initial Cr(VI) by the bacterial consortium, suggesting that this bacterial consortium might diminish phytoavailable Cr(VI) in soil and be useful for cleaning up chromium-contaminated sites. 相似文献

Copper(II) chromate and dichromate complexes with 2,2'-bipyridyl and 1,10-phenathroline were tested for their mutagenic activity in the standard Ames test. All of six tested complexes exhibited markedly lower mutagenic activity than the reference compounds--potassium dichromate and sodium chromate. The blockage of Cr(VI) reduction capability in the presence of the complex Cu2+ ion and the competition between copper and chromium ions in the interaction with cellular components are discussed in the light of the results of our previous chemical study. 相似文献

The growth and Cr(VI) reduction by Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 was examined using a mini-bioreactor system that independently monitors and controls pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), and temperature for each of its 24, 10-mL reactors. Independent monitoring and control of each reactor in the cassette allows the exploration of a matrix of environmental conditions known to influence S. oneidensis chromium reduction. S. oneidensis MR-1 grew in minimal medium without amino acid or vitamin supplementation under aerobic conditions but required serine and glycine supplementation under anaerobic conditions. Growth was inhibited by DO concentrations >80%. Lactate transformation to acetate was enhanced by low concentration of DO during the logarithmic growth phase. Between 11 and 35 degrees C, the growth rate obeyed the Arrhenius reaction rate-temperature relationship, with a maximum growth rate occurring at 35 degrees C. S. oneidensis MR-1 was able to grow over a wide range of pH (6-9). At neutral pH and temperatures ranging from 30 to 35 degrees C, S. oneidensis MR-1 reduced 100 microM Cr(VI) to Cr(III) within 20 min in the exponential growth phase, and the growth rate was not affected by the addition of chromate; it reduced chromate even faster at temperatures between 35 and 39 degrees C. At low temperatures (<25 degrees C), acidic (pH < 6.5), or alkaline (pH > 8.5) conditions, 100 microM Cr(VI) strongly inhibited growth and chromate reduction. The mini-bioreactor system enabled the rapid determination of these parameters reproducibly and easily by performing very few experiments. Besides its use for examining parameters of interest to environmental remediation, the device will also allow one to quickly assess parameters for optimal production of recombinant proteins or secondary metabolites. 相似文献
