미생물을 이용한 인삼 재배지 내 잔류 tolclofos-methyl의 효과적 분해를 목적으로, tolclofos-methyl에 대한 분해능을 보이는 미생물을 선발하였다. 선발된 미생물은 16S rDNA 염기서열분석을 통하여 Sphingomonas 속으로 동정되었다. 선발 미생물 Sphingomonas sp. 224는 1/10 농도의 LB 배지에 함유된 20 mg/L 농도의 tolclofos-methyl을 배양 72시간 이내에 95% 이상 분해하는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 이 미생물이 tolclofos-methyl을 분해하여 얻어지는 산물로 2,6-dichloro-4-methyl phenol이 확인됨에 따라 미생물이 생산하는 가수분해 효소에 의한 분해 경로를 가지는 것으로 추정되었다. Tolclofos-methyl 분해 미생물 Sphingomonas sp. 224를 인삼경작지 토양에 처리하여 이들 토양에 잔류되어 있는 tolclofos-methyl에 대한 분해능을 확인 한 결과, 20 mg/Kg 농도의 토양 잔류 tolclofos-methyl에 대하여 14일 이내에 약 50%의 분해력을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 이것은 단일 미생물을 이용한 배지 및 토양 내 tolclofosmethyl의 생분해 효과를 처음으로 확인한 연구 결과이다.

Microorganisms capable of utilizing 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid(2,4,5-T) as sole carbon source were isolated from soil by enrichment culture. Among these strains, EL-O7IP had the highest biodegradability of 2,4,5-7, and according to its morphological and physiological characteristics, it was identified as Pseudomonas sp. This strain was resistant to rifampicin, streptomycin, ampicillin, kanamycin and such metal ions as $Zn^{2+}$, $Cu^{2+}$ Various compounds of chlorinated phenol and substrate analogs were more easily utilized than 2,4,5-7, but biodegradation rate for each compound was different. The strain easily utilized the compounds of chlorinated substituents on phenol in the order of ortho-, para-, and meta- position. The biodegradability of this strain was very stable. Key words : 2,4,5- trichlorophenoxyacetic acid, Pseudomonas sp .

This paper reported the use of real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), and the culture-based method in the intrinsic bioremediation study at a petroleum contaminated site. The study showed that phenol hydroxylase gene was detected in groundwater contaminated with benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylene isomers (BTEX) and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). This indicated that intrinsic bioremediation occurred at the site. DGGE analyses revealed that the petroleum-hydrocarbon plume caused the variation in microbial communities. MTBE degraders including Pseudomonas sp. NKNU01, Bacillus sp. NKNU01, Klebsiella sp. NKNU01, Enterobacter sp. NKNU01, and Enterobacter sp. NKNU02 were isolated from the contaminated groundwater using the cultured-based method. Among these five strains, Enterobacter sp. NKNU02 is the most effective stain at degrading MTBE without the addition of pentane. The MTBE biodegradation experiment indicated that the isolated bacteria were affected by propane. Biodegradation of MTBE was decreased but not totally inhibited in the mixtures of BTEX. Enterobacter sp. NKNU02 degraded about 60% of MTBE in the bioreactor study. Tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), acetic acid, 2-propanol, and propenoic acid were detected using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry during MTBE degraded by the rest cells of Enterobacter sp. NKNU02. The effectiveness of bioremediation of MTBE was assessed for potential field-scale application.

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.

Nucleotide sequence extending 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase gene (pcbC) and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoate hydrolase gene (pcbD) of Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12 was previously analyzed and the two genes were present in the order of pcbD-pcbC preceded by a promoter from Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12. In this study, a 3.8-kb nucleotide sequence located downstream of the pcbC gene was analyzed to have three open reading frames (ORFs) that are designated as orf1, pcbE and orf2 genes. All of the ORFs were preceded by each ribosome-binding sequence of 5-GGAXA-3 (X=G or A). However, no promoter-like sequence and transcription terminator sequence were found in the analyzed region, downstream of pcbC gene. Therefore, the gene cluster appeared to be present in the order of pcbD-pcbC-orf1-pcbE-orf2 as an operon, which is unique organization characterized so far in biphenyl- and PCB-degrading bacteria. The orf1 gene was composed of 1,224 base pairs which can encode a polypeptide of molecular weight 44,950 containing 405 amino acid residues. A deduced amino acid sequence of the orf1 gene product exhibited 21-33％ identity with those of indole dioxygenase and phenol hydroxylase components. The pcbE gene was composed of 783 base pairs encoding 2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate hydratase involved in the 4-chlorobiphenyl catabolism. The orf2 gene was composed of 1,017 base pairs encoding a polypeptide of molecular weight 37,378 containing 338 amino acid residues. A deduced amino acid sequence of the orf2 gene product exhibited 31％ identity with that of a nitrilotriacetate monooxygenase component.
