Pseudomonas sp. EL-041는 페놀로 적응된 활성오니로부터 분리되었으며, 페놀을 분해할 수 있는 동시에 trick-loroethylene(TCE)을 공동대사할 수 있는 세균이다. 본 연구에서는 Pseudomonas sp. EL-041에서 발현되는 trick-loroethylene 분해효소의 종류를 효소활성 측정 및 specific phenol oxygenase gene의 DNA sequencing을 통하여 조사하였으며, 그 결과 본 균주의 trichloroethylene 분해효소는 monooxygenase였으며, phenol hydroxylase로 추정되었다.

Pseudomanas sp. EL-04J was previously isolated from phenol-acclimated activated sludge. This bacterium was capable of degrading phenol and cometabolizing trichloroethylene (TCE). After precultivation in the mineral salts medium containing phenol as a sole carbon source, Pseudomonas EL-04J degraded 90% of TCE $25 \mu\textrm{M}$ within 20 hours. Thus, phenol-induced Pseudomonas sp. EL-04J cells can bdegrade TCE. Followsing a transient lag period, Pseudomonas sp. EL-04J cells degraded TCE at concentrations of at least $250 \mu\textrm{M}$ with no apparent retardation in rate, but the transformance capacity of such cells was limited and depended on the cell concentration. The degradation rate of TCE followed the Michaelis-Menten kinetic model. The maximum degradation ratio ($V_{max}$) and saturation constant ($K_{m}$) were $7nmo {\ell}/min{\cdot}mg$ cell protein and $11 \mu\textrm{M}$, respectively. Cometabolism of TCE by phenol fed experiment was evaluated in $50m {\ell}$ serum vial that contained $10m {\ell}$ of meneral sals medium supplemented with $10 \mu\textrm{M}$ TCE degradation was inhibited in the initial period of 1 mM phenol addition, but after that time Pseudomonas sp. EL-04J cells degraded TCE and showed cell growth.

For the biological treatment of industrial wastewater containing high concentration of phenol, isolation and characterization of phenol - degrading bacterium were carried out. A bacterial strain P2 capable of degrading phenol was isolated from contaminated soils by enrichment culture technique and identified as the genus Rhodococcus by morphological, cultural, biochemical characteristics, and Biolog system. The optimal medium composition and cultural conditions for the growth and degradation of phenol by Rhodococcus sp. P2 were 0.1% of (NH$_4$)$_2$SO$_4$, 0.2% of KH$_2$PO$_4$, 0.25% of Na$_2$HPO$_4$ㆍ12$H_2O$, 0.2% of MgSO$_4$ㆍ7$H_2O$, and 0.008% of CaC1$_2$ㆍ2$H_2O$ along with initial pH 8.5 at 3$0^{\circ}C$. Rhodococcus sp. P2 could grow with phenol as the sole carbon source up to 1,800 ppm in batch cultures, but did not grow in medium containing above 2,000 ppm of phenol. When 800 ppm phenol was given in the optimal media, Rhodococcus sp. P2 completely degraded it within 24 h. Meanwhile, 1,800 ppm of phenol was degraded within 9 days. Rhodococcus sp. P2 could utilize toluene, n-hexane, xylene and benzene as sole carbon source .

A bacterium which is resistant to both mercury and cadmium, and also capable of utilizing phenol as a carbon and energy source, was isolated from the Kumho River sediments near Kangchang Bridge, Taegu, Korea. The isolate was labeled Pseudomonas sp. KM10 and characterized. The bacteria grew in 4 mM $CdCl_2$and in $70{\mu}M$ $HgCl_2$. The bacteria efficiently removed over 90% of 1 g/l phenol within 30 h. In the presence of 1.250 g/l phenol, the growth of the microorganism was slightly retarded and the microorganism could not tolerate 1.5 g/l phenol. Curing of plasmid from the bacteria was carried out to generate a plasmidless strain. Subsequent experiments localized the genes for phenol degradation in plasmid and the genes for mercury resistance and cadmium resistance on the chromosome. Dot hybridization and Southern hybridization under low stringent conditions were performed to identify the DNA homology. These results showed significant homologies between the some sequence of the chromosome of Pseudomonas sp. KM10 and merR of Shigella flexneri R 100, and between the some sequence of the chromosome of Pseudomonas sp. KM10 and cadA of Staphylococcus aureus pI258. The mechanism of cadmium resistance was efflux, similar to that of S. aureus pI258 cadA, and the mechanism of mercury resistance was volatilization, similar to that of S. flexneri R100 mer.

20 bacterial strains capable of growing on phenol minimal medium were isolated from soil and wastewater by the enrichment culture technique, and among them, one isolate which was the best in the cell growth was selected and identified as Bacillus sp. SH3 by its characteristics. Strain SH3 could grow with phenol as the sole carbon source up to 15 mM, but did not grow in minimal medium containing above 20 mM of phenol. The optimal conditions of temperature and initial pH for growth and phenol degradation were 30$^{\circ}$C and 7.5, respectively. This strain could grow on various aromatic compounds such as catechol, protocatechuic acid, gentisic acid, o-, m-, p-cresol, benzoic acid, p-hydroxybenzoic acid, anthranilic acid, phenyl acetate and pentachlorophenol, and the growth-limiting log P value of strain SH3 on organic solvents was 3.1. In batch culture, strain SH3 degraded 97% of 10 mM phenol in 48 hours. In continuous culture under the conditions of 20 mM of influent phenol concentration and 0.050 hr$^{-1}$ of dilution rate, the treatment rate of phenol was 94%.

충북 청주시의 공단폐수 유입지로부티 탈질화에 의한 페놀분해 세균이 분리되었다. 분리된 균의 형태적, 생화학적 및 생리학적 특성을 분석한 결과 Pseudomonas sp.로 판명되었고 HL100으로 명명하였다. 분리된 균은 nitrate가 최종전자 수용체로서 공급되는 경우 페놀을 단일 탄소 및 에너지원으로 이용하였다. 배지에 첨가된 nitrate가 nitrite로 환원되면서 3mM의 페놀을 약 110시간만에 완전히 분해하였으며 관찰된 최대 doubling time은 20시간이었다. 적절한 조건에서 nitrate로부터 $N_2$를 생성하는 능력을 보여 분리된 균의 경우 탈질작용의 전과정을 수행할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 최적 생장온도와 pH는 각각 37$^{\circ}C$와 7.0으로 판명되었으며 탈질화에 의한 생장시 toluene을 탄소원으로 이용하였지만 Xylene과 benzene은 이용하지 못하였다.

페놀과 각종 난분해성 화합물이 함유된 폐수를 미생물학적으로 처리하기 위하여 폭넓은 연구가 진행되고 있으나 이들 균주들은 200 ppm 이상의 고농도 페놀이 존재할 경우, 기질저해 현상에 따른 생육이 일어나지 않는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 유류로 오염된 토양에서 고농도 페놀을 분해할 수 있는 P21 균주를 분리하였으며, 표현형 및 계통분류에 근거하여 동정한 결과, Rhodococcus pyridinovorans로 동정되었다. 본 균주에 의한 페놀분해 최적조건은 0.09% $KNO_3$, 0.1% $K_2HPO_4$, 0.3% $NaH_2PO_4$, 0.015% $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 0.001% $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$, 초기 pH 9 및 $20-30^{\circ}C$이었으며, 이 조건에서 1000 ppm의 페놀을 2일 만에 완전히 분해하였다. 1,500 ppm의 페놀은 3일 만에 완전히 분해할 수 있었으나 그 이상의 페놀은 분해할 수 없었다. 또한 본 균주는 toluene, xylene 및 hexane과 같은 독성 화합물을 이용하여 생육할 수 있었으며, chloroform에서는 생육할 수 없었다.

A 6.1 kb Sph I fragment from the genomic DNA of Pseudomonas putida SM 25 was cloned into the veetor pUC19. The open reading frame of catB was found to consist of 1,122 nucleotides. The sequence alignment of the catB gene products from different kinds of bacteria revealed an overall identity ranging from 40 to 98%. The catC gene contained an open reading frame of 96 codons, from which a protein with a molecular mass of about 10.6 kDa was predicted. The amino acids in the proposed activesite region of CatC were found to be almost conserved, including the charged residues. Since the catBC genes in P. putida SM25 were tightly linked, the could be regulated under coordinate transcription, and transcribed from a single promoter located upstream of the catB gene, as in P. putida RBI.

In order to find the most fitted biodegradation model, biodegradation models to the initial 4-chlorophenol concentrations were investigated and had been fitted by the linear regression. The degrading bacterium, EL-091S, was selected among phenol-degraders. The strain was identified with Pseudomows sp. from the result of taxonomical studies. The optimal condition for the biodegradation was as fellows: secondary carbon source, concentration of ammonium nitrate, temperature and pH were 200mg/l fructose, 600 mg/l, $30^{\circ}C$ and 7.0 respectively. The highest degradation rate of the 4-chlorophenol was about 58% for 24 hours incubation on the optimal condition. Biodegradation kinetics model of 5 mg/l 4-Chlorophenol, 10 mg/l 4-chlorophenol and 50 mg/l 4-chlorophenol were fitted the zero order kinetics model, respectively. Key Words : 4-chlorophenol, Pseudomonas sp., zero order kinetics model.
