EXAFS study on arsenic species and transformation in arsenic hyperaccumulator

Synchrotron radiation extended X-ray absorption fine structure (SR EXAFS) was employed to study the transformation of coordination environment and the redox speciation of arsenic in a newly discovered arsenic hyperaccumulator, Cretan brake (Pteris cretica L. var nervosa Thunb). It showed that the arsenic in the plant mainly coordinated with oxygen, except that some arsenic coordinated with S as As-GSH in root. The complexation of arsenic with GSH might not be the predominant detoxification mechanism in Cretan brake. Although some arsenic in root presented as As(V) in Na₂HAsO₄ treatments, most of arsenic in plant presented as As(III)-O in both treatments, indicating that As(V) tended to be reduced to As(III) after it was taken up into the root, and arsenic was kept as As(III) when it was transported to the above-ground tissues. The reduction of As(V) primarily proceeded in the root.     

Effects of arsenate and phosphate on their accumulation by an arsenic-hyperaccumulator Pteris vittata L.

Arsenate and phosphate interactions are important for better understanding their uptake and accumulation by plant due to their similarities in chemical behaviors. The present study examined the effects of arsenate and phosphate on plant biomass and uptake of arsenate and phosphate by Chinese brake (Pteris vittata L.), a newly-discovered arsenic hyperaccumulator. The plants were grown for 20 weeks in a soil, which received the combinations of 670, 2670, or 5340 mol kg^–1 arsenate and 800, 1600, or 3200 mol kg^–1 phosphate, respectively. Interactions between arsenate and phosphate influenced their availability in the soil, and thus plant growth and uptake of arsenate and phosphate. At low and medium arsenate levels (670 and 2670 mol kg^–1), phosphate had slight effects on arsenate uptake by and growth of Chinese brake. However, phosphate substantially increased plant biomass and arsenate accumulation by alleviating arsenate phytotoxicity at high arsenate levels (5340 mol kg^–1). Moderate doses of arsenate increased plant phosphate uptake, but decreased phosphate concentrations at high doses because of its phytotoxicity. Based on our results, the minimum P/As molar ratios should be at least 1.2 in soil solution or 1.0 in fern fronds for the growth of Chinese brake. Our findings suggest that phosphate application may be an important strategy for efficient use of Chinese brake to phytoremediate arsenic contaminated soils. Further study is needed on the mechanisms of interactive effects of arsenate and phosphate on Chinese brake in hydroponic systems.     

黑曲霉3.795glaA基因及其5'调控区的克隆和序列分析

黑曲霉Ｔ２１是由黑曲霉３．７９５经诱变育种获得的糖化酶高产菌株,为阐明其高产的分子机制,由黑曲霉３．７９５克隆了糖化酶结构基因及其５′旁侧序列,并与黑曲霉Ｔ２１的相应序列进行了比较．由黑曲霉３．７９５菌丝体分离染色体ＤＮＡ,Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ杂交分析表明,糖化酶结构基因位于～２．５ｋｂ的ＥｃｏＲⅠ－ＥｃｏＲⅤ染色体ＤＮＡ片段上,在此ＥｃｏＲⅠ位点上游约１．０ｋｂ处有一ＳａｌⅠ位点．为构建糖化酶结构基因及其５′旁侧序列的基因组文库,该染色体ＤＮＡ分别用ＥｃｏＲⅠ＋ＥｃｏＲⅤ和ＥｃｏＲ＋ＳａｌⅠ消化,琼脂糖凝胶电泳分离并回收长度在１．０ｋｂ左右和２．５ｋｂ左右的ＤＮＡ片段,分别与ｐＵＣ１９载体连接后转化入Ｅ．ｃｏｌｉＤＨ５．用原位杂交方法筛选到了携带糖化酶基因编码区及其１５０５ｂｐ５′旁侧序列的阳性克隆．对克隆片段的ＤＮＡ序列进行了测定并与黑曲霉Ｔ２１的相应序列进行了比较,结果表明,在糖化酶基因编码区及其１５０ｂｐ３′非编码区内,未发现碱基差异,但在－３４０～－１５０５的５′上游区内发生了９个位置的碱基变化,包括缺失、插入和替换．这些结果表明,黑曲霉Ｔ２１与３．７９５的糖化酶产量的差异与其结构基因无关,但可能与其

Potential of Pteris vittata to Remove Tetracycline Antibiotics from Aquatic Media

The role of combined arsenic and antibiotics pollution in the environment has recently gained more attention. In this study, a new approach to eliminate tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) from water, via the fern species Pteris vittata (L.), an arsenic hyperaccumulator, was investigated. The encouraging results showed that more than half of the TCs could be removed from the water solution (with the starting concentration of TCs about 1.0 mg kg^?1 respectively) after one day of treatment. No TCs (less than 0.01 mg kg^?1) were detected in the solution after five days of treatment. The results showed that Pteris vittata has high ability to eliminate TCs, which makes it suitable for practical application. Further research found that TCs concentrations were very low in both the roots and the pinnae of Pteris vittata, which indicates that accumulation in the fronds is not the main removal mechanism and that degradation in the fronds might be the main cause. Present results provide a feasible method for simultaneous removal of arsenic and TCs from livestock-polluted wastewater. However, more research work should be done before any real-world application is made.
