오랜 세월 동안 저온환경으로 유지된 남극생태계에서 원유분해능을 나타내는 저온성 세균을 24균주 분리하여 그 중 분해능이 우수한 균주를 선발하였고, 그 중 활성이 가장 높은 A1-1을 선발하여 동정한 결과 Acinetobacter calcoaceticus로 밝혀졌다. A.calcoaceticus A1-1에는 분자량 약 110Md인 plasmid 하나만이 확인됐으며 mitomycin에 의한 plasmid curing은 transfer를 계속할수록 또는 온도를 상승시킬수록 curing의 빈도가 높았다. plasmid가 제거된 균주의 탄화수소 분해능 실험결과 저온성 세균 A. calcoaceticus A1-1의 alkane 화합물 이용능력은 plasmid에 유전정보가 있음을 시사했다. 또한 본 균주의 plasmid 안정성은 세 번째 transfer 후에도 90%정도의 안정성을 보여주었고 항생제 중 ampicillin에 대한 내성을 나타내었고 streptomycin, chloramphenicol, kanamycin, tetracycline에 대해서는 감수성을 나타내었다. 이와같은 결과들은 A. calcoaceticus A 1-1가 매우 안정적이며 항새제 내성과 관련이 있는 유류이용에 관여하는 프라스미드를 갖고 있음을 시사한다.

In this study, the TPH(Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon) contamination and microbial ecological characteristics in petroleum-contaminated site were investigated through the correlation among the vertical TPH contamination distribution of the site, the geochemical characteristics, and the indigenous microbial ecology. The high TPH concentration showed in the vicinity of 3~4 m or less which is thought to be affected by vertical movement due to the impervious clay layer. In addition, the TPH concentration was found to have a positive correlation with Fe²⁺, TOC concentration, and the number of petroleum-degrading bacteria, and a negative correlation with the microbial community diversity. The microbial community according to the vertical distribution of TPH showed that Proteobacteria and Firmicutes at the phylum level were dominant in this study area as a whole, and they competed with each other. In particular, it was confirmed that the difference in the microbial community was different due to the difference in the degree of vertical TPH contamination. In addition, the genera Acidovorax, Leptolinea, Rugoshibacter, and Smithella appeared dominant in the samples in which TPH was detected, which is considered to be the microorganisms involved in the degradation of TPH in this study area. It is expected that this study can be used as an important data to understand the contamination characteristics and biogeochemical and microbial characteristics of these TPH-contaminated sites.
