An enantioselective lipase gene (esf) for the kinetic resolution of optically active (S)-flurbiprofen was cloned from the new strain Serratia marcescens ES-2. The esf gene was composed of a 1,845-bp open reading frame encoding 614 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 64,978 Da. The lipase expressed in E. coli was purified by a three-step procedure, and it showed preferential substrate specificity toward the medium-chain-length fatty acids. The esf gene encoding the enantioselective lipase was reintroduced into the parent strain S. marcescens ES-2 for secretory overexpression. The transformant S. marcescens BESF secreted up to 217kU/ml of the enantioselective lipase, about 54-fold more than the parent strain, after supplementing 3.0% Triton X-207. The kinetic resolution of (S)-flurbiprofen was carried out even at an extremely high (R,S)-flurbiprofen ethyl ester [(R,S)-FEE] concentration of 500 mM, 130 kU of the S. marcescens ES-2 lipase per mmol of (R,S)-FEE, and 1,000 mM of succinyl ${\beta}-cyclodextrin$ as the dispenser at $37^{\circ}C$ for 12h, achieving the high enantiomeric excess and conversion yield of 98% and 48%, respectively.

A lignin degradation bacteria, symbiotic bacteria was isolated from the gut of Sympetrum depressiusculum and tested for its lignin degrading activity using lignin model compounds and related aromatic compounds. The strain was identified as Serratia marcescens HY-5 based on the 165 rDNA, cellular fatty acid composition, biochemical and physiological characteristics. S. marcescens showed 40-50% lignin degrading activity in the media that contained vaillin, guaiacol and dealkaline lignin. S. marcescens showed three ligninase activities [Jaccase, lignin peroxidase(LiP) and Manganase peroxidase(MnP)]. Addition of dealkaline lignin to the basal media increased about 6fold of laccase activity. Vanillic acid or vanillin increase 1.3fold of MnP activity and p-coumaric acid increased 12fold of LiP activity which added to the basal medium.

내분비계 장애물질로 잘 알려진 bisphenol A (BPA)를 단일탄소원으로 이용하여 균체성장을 나타내는 미생물 87주를 공단주변의 토양, 폐수 혹은 활성슬러지로부터 분리하였다. 분리된 균주 중 균체성장이 우수한 균주 8중을 2차 분리하였으며, 이 중 BPA분해효율이 뛰어난 3종의 균주를 BPA분해미생물로 최종 선별하였다. 최종 선별된 3종의 균주를 16s rDNA의 부분적 염기서열 및 형태학적, 생리학적 특성조사를 통해 Serratia maycescens 1901, S, marcescens 1902 그리고 Pseudomanas putida 1401로 동정되었다. BPA분해능은 HPLC분석을 통해 배양액중의 잔존 BPA 농도로 측정하였으며, 최종 선별된 3종의 균주를 대상으로 BPA가 100 mg/1흑은 500 mg/l의 농도로 포함된 최소 무기염 배지(PAS) 및 비타민을 포함하는 PAS인 PAV 배지에서 배양하여 BPA 분해능을 조사한 결과 20-40%의 분해효율을 나타내었다. 이들 균주의 균체성장은 PAS 배지에서 보다 PAV배지에서 우수하였다. S. marcescens 1901은 저농도(100 mg/l) BPA에서 분해효율이 다른 2종의 균주보다 우수하였고, S. marcescens 1902와 P. putida 1401은 고농도(500 mg/l)에서 BPA분해효율이 높았다. 선별된 3균주의 순수배양과 흔합배양에 의한 BPA분해효율을 비교한 결과, 유의한 차이는 나타나지 않았다.

Six strains of an obligate predatory bdellovibrio isolate that preys on Burkholderia glumae in rice paddy field water and rhizosphere soil, were identified and characterized. The numbers of Bdellovibrio cells varied from $3.2{\times}10^3$ to $9.2{\times}10^3$ plaque-forming unit/g after enrichment in cells of B. glumae. Prey range tests with six Bdellovibrio strains and 17 prey strains of rice-pathogenic, antibiosis-related, or nitrogen-fixing bacteria resulted in unique predation patterns in related prey cells. Strain BG282 had the widest prey range on 7 plant pathogenic bacteria among the 17 prey strains tested. However, no predation occurred with strains of Azospirillum brasilense, Paenibacillus polymyxa, Pseudomonas fluorescens, P. putida, and Serratia marcescens that are associated with antibiosis or nitrogen fixation in the rice ecosystem. Identification was confirmed by the presence of typical bdelloplast in the prey cells of B. glumae and by a PCR assay using B. bacteriovorus-specific primers. Furthermore, 16S rDNA sequencing of the six bdellovibrio strains showed a homology range of 97.2% to 99.2% to the type strain of B. bacteriovorus.

Recently, the prevalence of 16S rRNA methylase conferring high-level resistance to aminoglycosides has been increasing in Gram-negative bacilli globally. We determined the prevalence and genotype of these methylase-producing bacteria, and characterized the co-resistance to ${\beta}$-lactam antibiotics and quinolone in Gram-negative clinical isolates collected in 2010 at a hospital in Korea. Among 65 amikacin-resistant isolates screened from 864 Gram-negative bacilli (GNB), 16S rRNA methylase genes were detected from 49 isolates, including Acinetobacter baumannii (43), Klebsiella pneumoniae (2), Proteus mirabilis (2) and Serratia marcescens (1), Empedobacter brevis (1). All of the 16S rRNA methylase genotype was armA and no variant sequences of amplified PCR products for armA were noted. The 16S rRNA methylase producing bacteria showed much higher resistance to aminoglycoside for Enterobacteriaceae and glucose non-fermenting (NF)-GNB and to imipenem for glucose NF-GNB, than the non-producing isolates. All of the 16S rRNA methylase producing Enterobacteriaceae had the extended-spectrum-${\beta}$-lactamase. In addition, two K. pneumoniae concurrently produced both plasmid-mediated AmpC ${\beta}$-lactamase and qnrB gene. All of the amikacin-resistant A. baumannii (43) co-harbored armA 16S rRNA methylase and $bla_{OXA-23}$ carbapenemase. In conclusion, 16S rRNA methylase producing bacteria were very prevalent among GNB in South Korea, and were commonly associated with co-resistance, including carbapenem and quinolone.

The intention of this study was to identify the bacterial pathogens infecting Oreochromis niloticus (Nile tilapia) and Clarias gariepinus (African catfish), and to establish the antibiotic susceptibility of fish bacteria in Uganda. A total of 288 fish samples from 40 fish farms (ponds, cages, and tanks) and 8 wild water sites were aseptically collected and bacteria isolated from the head kidney, liver, brain and spleen. The isolates were identified by their morphological characteristics, conventional biochemical tests and Analytical Profile Index test kits. Antibiotic susceptibility of selected bacteria was determined by the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. The following well-known fish pathogens were identified at a farm prevalence of; Aeromonas hydrophila (43.8%), Aeromonas sobria (20.8%), Edwardsiella tarda (8.3%), Flavobacterium spp. (4.2%) and Streptococcus spp. (6.3%). Other bacteria with varying significance as fish pathogens were also identified including Plesiomonas shigelloides (25.0%), Chryseobacterium indoligenes (12.5%), Pseudomonas fluorescens (10.4%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (4.2%), Pseudomonas stutzeri (2.1%), Vibrio cholerae (10.4%), Proteus spp. (6.3%), Citrobacter spp. (4.2%), Klebsiella spp. (4.2%) Serratia marcescens (4.2%), Burkholderia cepacia (2.1%), Comamonas testosteroni (8.3%) and Ralstonia picketti (2.1%). Aeromonas spp., Edwardsiella tarda and Streptococcus spp. were commonly isolated from diseased fish. Aeromonas spp. (n = 82) and Plesiomonas shigelloides (n = 73) were evaluated for antibiotic susceptibility. All isolates tested were susceptible to at-least ten (10) of the fourteen antibiotics evaluated. High levels of resistance were however expressed by all isolates to penicillin, oxacillin and ampicillin. This observed resistance is most probably intrinsic to those bacteria, suggesting minimal levels of acquired antibiotic resistance in fish bacteria from the study area. To our knowledge, this is the first study to establish the occurrence of several bacteria species infecting fish; and to determine antibiotic susceptibility of fish bacteria in Uganda. The current study provides baseline information for future reference and fish disease management in the country.
