Benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) is a five-ring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon produced by the incomplete combustion of organic materials. It is one of the priority pollutants listed by the US Environmental Protection Agency. This study describes a fungal isolate that is able to biodegrade benzo(a)pyrene. The filamentous fungus, isolated from leaves of Pterocarpus macrocarpus Kurz., was identified as a Fusarium sp. (strain E033). Fusarium sp. E033 was able to survive in the presence of benzo(a)pyrene concentrations up to 1.2 mM (300 mg L(-1)). Biodegradation experiments using 0.4 mM (100 mg L(-1)) benzo(a)pyrene demonstrated that Fusarium sp. E033 was able to degrade 65-70% of the initial benzo(a)pyrene provided, and two transformation products, a dihydroxy dihydro-benzo(a)pyrene and a benzo(a)pyrene-quinone, were detected within 30 days of incubation at 32 degrees C. The factors affecting biodegradation efficiency were also investigated. While increasing aeration promoted better fungal growth and benzo(a)pyrene biodegradation, increasing the glucose concentration from 5 to 50 mM had an adverse effect on biodegradation. Ethanol and methanol, provided at 5 mM to increase benzo(a)pyrene water solubility, increased the fungal biomass yield but did not promote degradation. The Fusarium sp. E033 isolated in this study can tolerate and degrade relatively high concentrations of benzo(a)pyrene, suggesting its potential application in benzo(a)pyrene bioremediation. 相似文献

Four new β-carbolines 1–4 and two new indoles 5–6 were isolated together with thirteen known compounds from actinomycete, Actinomadura BCC 24717. Structures of the new compounds, 1–6, were determined by NMR spectroscopic and MS spectrometric analyses. Compound 4 exhibited cytotoxicity to Vero cells and compound 6 showed antifungal activity with IC50 35.91 μg/mL and 41.97 μg/mL, respectively. 相似文献

The phylogenetic relationships among 135 Pisolithus basidiomes and two isolates collected from three pine forests, a pine-dipterocarp forest, two dipterocarp forests, and 29 eucalyptus plantations in Thailand were investigated. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) polymorphism analyses, including terminal RFLP, divided them into 26 groups. The ITS in a representative basidiome of each group was sequenced, and a phylogenetic analysis was performed. The dendrogram suggested that at least three Pisolithus species are present in Thailand. Pisolithus basidiomes collected in the pine forests and under some Shorea roxburghii trees in a pine-dipterocarp forest corresponded to species 5 as previously described by Martin et al. in 2002. Those collected under S. roxburghii and Dipterocarp alatus trees in the dipterocarp forests did not match any previously reported species. Basidiomes collected from the eucalyptus plantations were all identified as Pisolithus albus. 相似文献

An extracellular beta-glucosidase was purified from culture filtrates of the wood-decaying fungus Daldinia eschscholzii (Ehrenb.:Fr.) Rehm grown on 1.0% (w/v) carboxymethyl-cellulose using ammonium sulfate precipitation, ion-exchange, hydrophobic interaction and gel filtration chromatography. The enzyme is monomeric with a molecular weight of 64.2 kDa as estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and has a pI of 8.55. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside (PNPG) as the substrate, with a K(m) of 1.52 mM, and V(max) of 3.21 U min mg(-1) protein. Glucose competitively inhibited beta-glucosidase with a K(i) value of 0.79 mM. Optimal activity with PNPG as the substrate was at pH 5.0 and 50 degrees C. The enzyme was stable at pH 5.0 at temperatures up to 50 degrees C. The purified beta-glucosidase was active against PNPG, cellobiose, sophorose, laminaribiose and gentiobiose, but did not hydrolyze lactose, sucrose, Avicel or o-nitrophenyl-beta-d-galactopyranoside. The activity of beta-glucosidase was stimulated by Ca(2+), Co(2+), Mg(2+), Mn(2+), glycerol, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), dithiothreitol and EDTA, and strongly inhibited by Hg(2+). The internal amino acid sequences of D. eschscholziibeta-glucosidase have similarity to the sequences of the family 3 beta-glucosyl hydrolase. 相似文献

Summary In order to study the foliar endophytes from teak (Tectona grandis L.) and rain tree (Samanea saman Merr.) growing in the campus of Chulalongkorn University, healthy leaves were collected at two-monthly intervals during January
to December. The number of genera and species, together with their colonization frequency (CF%) in mature teak and rain tree
leaves were greater than those in the young leaves. More endophytic isolates in the leaves of both trees were recovered during
the rainy season. The fungal genera found in both young and mature teak leaves were Alternaria, Colletotrichum, Nigrospora, Phomopsis and mycelia sterilia. Phomopsis was the dominant genus in both young (newly emerged) and mature leaves. Fusarium, Penicillium, Schizophyllum commune and members of the Xylariaceae were found only in mature leaves. For the rain tree leaves, species of Phomopsis and mycelia sterilia were found in both young newly emerged and mature leaves. Colletotrichum and Penicillium were found only in mature leaves, whereas Nigrospora was found only in young newly emerged leaves. In this study, Phomopsis was the dominant genus in the leaves of both tree species. A total of 37 isolates of endophytic fungi isolated from teak
and rain tree leaves were tested for the production of antimicrobial activities. Out of these, 18 isolates could produce inhibitory
substances effective against Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli and 3 isolates inhibited growth of Candida albicans
in vitro. 相似文献

Pectins extracted from Krueo Ma Noy (Cissampelos pareira) leaves mainly consisted of galacturonic acid with trace amount of neutral sugars. The dominant structure of Krueo Ma Noy pectin was established as a 1,4-linked -D-galacturonan by a combination of carboxyl reduction and methylation analysis, and confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. The degree of esterification of Krueo Ma Noy pectins was 41.7 and 33.7% for crude and dialyzed pectins, respectively. Krueo Ma Noy pectin has an average molecular weight of 55 kDa, radius of gyration of 15.2 nm and intrinsic viscosity of 2.3 dl/g. Krueo Ma Noy pectin exhibited gelling properties in aqueous solutions at 0.5% (w/v) at 5 °C. Gels were formed at concentrations of 1.0% (w/v) and above even at room temperature. The gel strength, melting point, and melting enthalpy of Krueo Ma Noy pectin increased with polysaccharide concentration. 相似文献
