Abstract

A new aniline-utilizing microorganism, strain HY1 obtained from an orchard soil, was characterized by using the BIOLOG system, an analysis of the total cellular fatty acids, and a 16S rDNA sequence. Strain HY1 was identified as a Burkholderia species, and was designated Burkholderia sp. HY1. GC and HPLC analyses revealed that Burkholderia sp. HY1 was able to degrade aniline to produce catechol, which was subsequently converted to cis,cis-muconic acid through an ortho-ring fission pathway under aerobic conditions. Strain HY1 exhibited a drastic reduction in the rate of aniline degradation when glucose was added to the aniline media. However, the addition of peptone or nitrate to the aniline media dramatically accelerated the rate of aniline degradation. A fatty acid analysis showed that strain HY1 was able to produce lipids 16:0 2OH, and 11 methyl 18:1 ${\omega}7c$ approximately 3.7-, 2.2-, and 6-fold more, respectively, when grown on aniline media than when grown on TSA. An analysison the alignment of a 1,435 bp fragment. A phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rDNA sequence based on a 1,420 bp multi-alignment sowed of the 16s rDNA sequence revealed that strain HY1 was very closely related to Burkholderia graminis with 95% similarity based that strain HY1 was placed among three major clonal types of $\beta$-Proteobacteria, including Burkholderia graminis, Burkholderia phenazinium, and Burkholderia glathei. The sequence GAT(C or G)${\b{G}}$, which is highly conserved in several locations in the 16S rDNA gene among the major clonal type strains of $\beta$-Proteobacteria, was frequently replaced with GAT(C or G)${\b{A}}$ in the 16S rDNA sequence from strain HY1.
