Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is capable of catabolizing 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA) as carbon and energy sources under aerobic conditions via the mesa-cleavage pathway. 4CBA-dioxygenase and 4CBA-dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (4CBA-DD) catalyzed the degradation af 4CBA to produce 4-chlorocatechol in the pathway. In this study, the xylL gene encoding 4CBA-DD was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 and its nucleotide sequence was analyzed. The xylL gene was found to be composed of 777 nucleotide pairs and to encode a polypeptide of 28 kDa with 258 amino acid residues. The deduced amino acid sequence of the dehydrogenase (XylL) from strain S-47 exhibited 98% and 60% homologies with these of the corresponding enzymes, Pseudomonas putida mt-2 (XyIL) and Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (BenD), respectively. However, the amino arid sequences show 30% or less homology with those of Pseudomonas putida (BnzE), Pseudomonas putida Fl (TodD), Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707 (BphB), and Pseudomonas sp. C18 (NahB). Therefore, the 4CBA-dihydrodiol dehdrogenase of strain S-47 belongs to the group I dehydrogenase involved in the degradation of mono-aryls with a carboxyl group.

The strain of S-47 degrading 4-chlorobenzoic acid (4CBA) was isolated from Ulsan chemical industrial complex by enrichment cultivation with 1 mM 4CBA. The strain was Gram-negative rod and grew optimally at 30.deg.C and pH 7 under aerobic condition, so that the organism was identified as a species of Pseudomonas. Pseudomonas sp. S-47 degraded 4-chlorobenzoic acid to produce a yellow-colored meta-cleavage product, which was confirmed to be 5-chloro-2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde (5C-2HMS) by UV-visible spectrophotometry. 5C-3HMS was proved trometry. This means that Pseudomonas sp. S-47 degraded 4CBA via 4-chlorocatechol to 5C-2HMS by meta-cleavage reaction and then to 5C-2HMA by 5C-2HMS dehydrogenase.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is a bacterium capable of degrading benzoate as well as 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA). Benzoate and 4CBA are known to be degraded via a meta-cleavage pathway characterized by a series of enzymes encoded by xyl genes. The meta-cleavage pathway operon in Pseudomonas sp. S-47 encodes a set of enzymes which transform benzoate and 4CBA into TCA cycle intermediates via the meta-cleavage of (4-chloro )catechol to produce pyruvate and acetyl-CoA. In the current study, the meta-pathway gene cluster was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of S-47 strain to obtain pCS1, which included the degradation activities for 4CBA and catechol. The genetic organization of the operon was then examined by cloning the meta-pathway genes into a pBluescript SKII(+) vector. As such, the meta-pathway operon from Pseudomonas sp. S-47 was found to contain 13 genes in the order of xylXYZLTEGFlQKIH. The two regulatory genes, xylS and xylR, that control the expression of the meta-pathway operon, were located adjacently downstream of the meta-pathway operon. The xyl genes from strain S-47 exhibited a high nucleoside sequence homology to those from Pseudomonas putida mt-2, except for the xylJQK genes, which were more homologous to the corresponding three genes from P. stutzeri AN10. One open reading frame was found between the xylH and xylS genes, which may playa role of a transposase. Accordingly, the current results suggest that the xyl gene cluster in Pseudomonas sp. S-47 responsible for the complete degradation of benzoate was recombined with the corresponding genes from P. putida mt-2 and P. stutzeri AN10.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is capable of transforming 4-chlorobenzoate to 4-chlorocatechol which is subsequently oxidized bty meta-cleavage dioxygenase to prodyce 5-chloro-2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde. Catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C23O) produced by Pseudomonas sp. S-47 was purified and characterized in this study. The C23O enzyme was maximally produced in the late logarithmic growth phase, and the temperature and pH for maximunm enzyme activity were $30{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ and 7.0, respectively. The enzyme was purified and concentrated 5 fold from the crude cell extracts through Q Sepharose chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration after acetone precipitation. The enzyme was identified as consisting of 35 kDa subunits when analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The C23O produced by Pseudomonas sp. S-47 was similar to Xy1E of Pseudomonas putida with respect to substrate specificity for several catecholic compounds.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is capable of degrading benzoate and 4-chlorobenzoate as well as catechol and 4-chlorocatechol via the meta-cleavage pathway. The three enzymes of 2-oxopenta-4-enoate hydratase (OEH), acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (acylating) (ADA), and 2-oxo-4-hydroxypentonate aldolase (HOA) encoded by xylJQK genes are responsible for the three steps after the meta-cleavage of catechol. The nucleotide sequence of the xylJQK genes located in the chromosomal DNA was cloned and analyzed. GC content of xylJ, xylQ, and xylK was 65% and consisted of 786, 924, and 1,041 nucleotides, respectively. The deduced amino acid sequences of xylJ, xylQ, and xylK genes from Pseudomonas sp. S-47 showed 93%, 99%, and 99% identity, compared with those of nahT, nahH, and nahI in Pseudomonas stutzeri An10. However, there were only about 53% to 85% identity with xylJQK of Pseudomonas putida mt-2, dmpEFG of P. putida CF600, aphEFG of Comamonas testosteroni TA441, and ipbEGF of P. putida RE204. On the other hand, the xylLTEGF genes located upstream of xylJQK in the strain S-47 showed high homology with those of TOL plasmid from Pseudomonas putida mt-2. These findings suggested that the xylLTEGFIJQK of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 responsible for complete degradation of benzoate and then catechol via the meta-pathway were phylogenetically recombinated from the genes of Pseudomonas putida mt-2 and Pseudomonas stutzeri An10.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 degraded 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA) to 4-chlorocatechol (4CC) that was subsequently ring-cleaved to form 5-chloro-2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde. These intermediate compounds were identified by GC-mass spectrometry and UV-visible spectrophotometry. 5-chloro-2-hydroxymuconic acid converted from 5-chloro-2- hydroxymuconic semialdehyde (5C-2HMS) was dechlorinated to produce 2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoic acid (2HP-2,4DA) by the strain. These results indicate that Pseudomonas sp. S-47 degrades 4CBA to 2HP-2,4DA via a novel pathway including the meta-cleavage of 4CC and dechlorination of 5C-2HMS.

Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is capable of degrading catechol and 4-chlorocatechol via the meta-cleavage pathway. XyITE products catalyze the dioxygenation of the aromatics. The sylT of the strain S-47 is located just upstream of the xylE gene. XylT of the strain S-47 is located just upstream of the xylE gene. XyIT is typical chloroplast-type ferredoxin, which is characterized by 4 cystein residues that are located at positions 41, 46, 49, and 81. The chloroplast-type ferredoxin of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 exhibited a 98% identity with that of P. putida mt-2(TOL plasmid) in the amino acid sequence, but only about a 40 to 60% identity with the corresponding enzymes from other organisms. We constructed two recombinant plasmids (pRES1 containing xylTE and pRES101 containing xylE without xylT) in order to examine the function of XyIT for the reactivation of the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (XyIE) that is oxidized with hydrogen peroxide was recovered in the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C23O) activity about 4 mimutes after incubation, but the pRES101 showed no recovery. That means that the typical chloroplast-type ferredoxin (XyIT) of Pseudomonas sp. S-47 is involved in the reactivation of the oxidized C23O in the dioxygenolytic cleavage of aromatic compounds.

바이칼호에 서식하는 2종의 스폰지 체내 및 주변 물로부터 92개의 저온성 균주를 분리하고 각 균주들의 기질 분해능을 조사하였다. 그 결과 섬유소와 지방에 대한 분해 활성도를 갖는 균주는 38.0, 34.8%로 비교적 적었으나 전분과 단백질 분해 활성도를 갖는 균주는 78.3, 57.6%로 높은 비율로 나타났다. 분리한 세균을 염기서열의 유사도에 따라 분류하기 위하여 Genomic Fingerprinting을 실시한 후 31개 균주를 선별하여 동정한 결과, Baikalospongia sp.에서 분리한 13균주는 모두 Pseudomonas속으로 확인된 반면, Lubomirskia sp.에서 분리한 14균주는 Pseudomonas ssp., Buttiauxella agrestis, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Yersinia ruckeri, Bacillus ssp., Paenibacillus ssp., Bacillus thuringiensis, Bacillus simplex, Brevibacterium ssp., Acinetobacter lwoffii로 다양하게 동정되었다. 그러나 총 31개 균주 중 18개가 Pseudomonas속으로 동정된 것은 타감작용에 의한 다른 세균 성장의 방해 때문으로 평가되며, 이러한 일반적인 배양 방법의 한계점을 극복하기 위해서는 스폰지의 서식처와 세균의 검출 방법에 대하여 보다 다양한 심층적인 연구가 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.
