Alkylphenol polyethoxylate (APEOn), including octylphenol polyethoxylate (OPEOn) and nonylphenol polyethoxylate (NPEOn), are typical polyethylene glycol (PEG) type non-ionic surfactants. The structures of APEOn are a hydrophilic ethylene oxide (EO) chain attached to a hydrophobic alkylphenol at para-position. They are very important surfactants with industrial, agricultural, and domestic applications. The majority of environmental APEOn comes from wastewater treatment, plant discharge, pesticides and herbicides on farms. When APEOn are released into environment, the EO chains of APEOn are cleaved to APEOn (n≦3), APECn (n≦3) and alkylphenol (AP) which are known to cause estrogenic effects on aquatic organisms, birds, and mammals as environmental hormoens. Pseudomonas nitroreducens TX1, isolated in Taiwan, is shown to be able to grow on 0.05~20%(v/v) of OPEOn as sole carbon source. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis showed that the biodegradation mechanism of OPEOn and dodecyl octaethoxylate (AEO8) by strain TX1 was through a sequential cleavage of the EO chain and accompany with the formation of carboxylated OPEOn and AEO8. Previously, P. nitroreducens TX1 was grown on minimal salts basal (MSB) medium containing 0.5% OPEOn as sole carbon source and analyzed by a subtractive proteome comparisons against a succinate-grown proteome. An alcohol dehydrogenase containing pyrroloquinoline quinine (PQQ) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) were shown to be up-regulated for 15-and 10-folds, respectively. Moreover, an alcohol dehydrogenase (PQQ) was shown to degrade PEG proposed by other group. Therefore, we cloned ADH(PQQ) and ALDH for expression in Escherichia coli. However, the ADH expressed in E. coli is mostly in the membrane fraction and we can not detect the activity in this fraction. We then identified an OPEOn degrading enzyme (ADH) from strain TX1 and found that ADH react on OPEOn is neither NAD+ nor PQQ-dependent enzymes. We can not determine the cofactor of this enzyme and temporarily named ADH. The alcohol dehydrogenase activity was up-regulated for 3 folds in cell grown on 0.5% OPEOn compared to that on 0.5% succinate, indicating OPEOn induced a higher expression of ADH. The activities of ADH in crude extract and in membrane are 74 and 26 percents, respectively. ADH in crude extract, has activity to AEO8, OPEOn and NPEOn (9~11 mU/mg of crude extract) but has no activity to PEG. Therefore, the ADH from P. nitroreducens TX1 is different from PEG dehydrogenase from Sphingomonas. terrae published previously. In addition, ADH has no activity to methanol, ethanol, butanol, benzyl alcohol, but the ADH also is a dehydrogenase for nonyl-aldehyde (22 mU/mg), but not on formaldehyde and benzaldehyde, indicating its role in the formation of APEC. The ADH from strain TX1 is specifically to catalyze OPEOn to form OPECn. By ionic exchange chromatography, the pI of ADH is estimated to be around 5. The first purification step is by anionic exchange chromatography. The recovery is 22% from the first step. Second step is by gel filtration and the recovery is 3%. Chromatofocusing was used as the third step for ADH purification. The pI of ADH is 5.8. Substrates specificity of the partial purified ADH from second-step purification is the same as ADH in crude extract. In the future work, the ADH will be cloned to analyze its products analyzed by LC-MS to confirm the role of ADH in the OPEOn degradation pathway in P. nitroreducens TX1. |
