Abstract

Mitigation of heavy metal toxicity by iron containing superoxide dismutase (FeSOD) of Streptomyces subrutilus P5 was investigated. For E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$, the survival rate in the presence of 0.1 mM lead ions was only 7% after 120 min; however, with the addition of $0.1{\mu}M$ of purified native FeSOD the survival rate increased to 39%. This detoxification effect was also shown with 0.01 mM copper ions (survival increased from 6% to 50%), and the effect was stronger than with the use of EDTA. E. coli M15[pREP4] producing 6xHis-tagged FeSOD was constructed, and this showed an increase in survival rates throughout the incubation time; in the presence of 0.1 mM lead ions,the final increase at 60 min was from 3% to 19%. The FeSOD absorbed about 123 g-atom lead per subunit; therefore, we suggest that FeSOD could sequestrate toxic heavy metals to enhance bacterial survival against heavy metal contamination.

Streptomyces subrutilus P5가 생산하는 철 함유 superoxide dismutase (FeSOD)에 의한 중금속 독성의 완화를 조사하였다. 0.1 mM의 납이온이 120분 처리되면 E. coli $DH5{\alpha}$의 생존율이 7%에 불과 하지만 $0.1{\mu}M$의 정제된 천연 FeSOD가 첨가되면 생존율이 39%로 높아졌다. 이러한 해독작용은 0.01 mM의 구리이온에 대해서도 나타나며(생존율이 6%에서 50%로 증가) 그 효과는 EDTA보다 강하였다. 6xHis-tagged FeSOD를 생산하는 재조합 E. coli M15[pREP4]는 0.1 mM의 납 이온이 60분 처리된 후의 생존율이 3%에서 19%로 증가하였다. 6xHis-tagged FeSOD는 분자당 123개의 납과 결합하였다. 따라서 FeSOD가 중금속을 세포와의 접촉으로부터 격리함으로써 중금속이 오염된 환경에서 세균의 생존력을 증가시킨 것으로 사료된다.
