Complete genome sequence of the representative ?-hexachlorocyclohexane-degrading bacterium Sphingobium japonicum UT26.

ABSTRACT: Sphingobium japonicum strain UT26 utilizes ?-hexachlorocyclohexane (?-HCH), a man-made chlorinated pesticide that causes serious environmental problems due to its toxicity and long persistence, as a sole source of carbon and energy. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of UT26, which consists of two chromosomes and three plasmids. The 15 lin genes involved in ?-HCH degradation are dispersed on the two chromosomes and one of the three plasmids.

Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane dehydrochlorinase LinA from Sphingobium japonicum UT26.

Project description:LinA from Sphingobium japonicum UT26 catalyzes two steps of dehydrochlorination from gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (gamma-HCH) to 1,3,4,6-tetrachloro-1,4-cyclohexadiene (1,4-TCDN) via gamma-pentachlorocyclohexene (gamma-PCCH). LinA was crystallized by the sitting-drop vapour-diffusion method using PEG 3350 as the precipitant. The crystals belonged to space group P4(1) or P4(3), with unit-cell parameters a = b = 68.9, c = 101.9 A, and diffracted X-rays to 2.25 A resolution. The crystal contained three molecules in the asymmetric unit.

Identification and characterization of genes encoding a putative ABC-type transporter essential for utilization of gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane in Sphingobium japonicum UT26.

Project description:Sphingobium japonicum UT26 utilizes gamma-hexachlorocyclohexane (gamma-HCH) as its sole source of carbon and energy. In our previous studies, we cloned and characterized genes encoding enzymes for the conversion of gamma-HCH to beta-ketoadipate in UT26. In this study, we analyzed a mutant obtained by transposon mutagenesis and identified and characterized new genes encoding a putative ABC-type transporter essential for the utilization of gamma-HCH in strain UT26. This putative ABC transporter consists of four components, permease, ATPase, periplasmic protein, and lipoprotein, encoded by linK, linL, linM, and linN, respectively. Mutation and complementation analyses indicated that all the linKLMN genes are required, probably as a set, for gamma-HCH utilization in UT26. Furthermore, the mutant cells deficient in this putative ABC transporter showed (i) higher gamma-HCH degradation activity and greater accumulation of the toxic dead-end product 2,5-dichlorophenol (2,5-DCP), (ii) higher sensitivity to 2,5-DCP itself, and (iii) higher permeability of hydrophobic compounds than the wild-type cells. These results strongly suggested that LinKLMN are involved in gamma-HCH utilization by controlling membrane hydrophobicity. This study clearly demonstrated that a cellular factor besides catabolic enzymes and transcriptional regulators is essential for utilization of xenobiotic compounds in bacterial cells.

Differences in crystallization of two LinB variants from Sphingobium japonicum UT26.

Project description:Haloalkane dehalogenases are microbial enzymes that convert a broad range of halogenated aliphatic compounds to their corresponding alcohols by the hydrolytic mechanism. These enzymes play an important role in the biodegradation of various environmental pollutants. Haloalkane dehalogenase LinB isolated from a soil bacterium Sphingobium japonicum UT26 has a relatively broad substrate specificity and can be applied in bioremediation and biosensing of environmental pollutants. The LinB variants presented here, LinB32 and LinB70, were constructed with the goal of studying the effect of mutations on enzyme functionality. In the case of LinB32 (L117W), the introduced mutation leads to blocking of the main tunnel connecting the deeply buried active site with the surrounding solvent. The other variant, LinB70 (L44I, H107Q), has the second halide-binding site in a position analogous to that in the related haloalkane dehalogenase DbeA from Bradyrhizobium elkanii USDA94. Both LinB variants were successfully crystallized and full data sets were collected for native enzymes as well as their complexes with the substrates 1,2-dibromoethane (LinB32) and 1-bromobutane (LinB70) to resolutions ranging from 1.6 to 2.8?Å. The two mutants crystallize differently from each other, which suggests that the mutations, although deep inside the molecule, can still affect the protein crystallizability.
