Complete genome sequence of the haloaromatic acid-degrading bacterium Achromobacter xylosoxidans A8.

ABSTRACT: Achromobacter xylosoxidans strain A8 was isolated from soil contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls. It can use 2-chlorobenzoate and 2,5-dichlorobenzoate as sole sources of carbon and energy. This property makes it a good starting microorganism for further development toward a bioremediation tool. The genome of A. xylosoxidans consists of a 7-Mb chromosome and two large plasmids (98 kb and 248 kb). Besides genes for the utilization of xenobiotic organic substrates, it contains genes associated with pathogenesis, toxin production, and resistance. Here, we report the complete genome sequence.

Complete genome sequence of the cystic fibrosis pathogen Achromobacter xylosoxidans NH44784-1996 complies with important pathogenic phenotypes.

Project description:Achromobacter xylosoxidans is an environmental opportunistic pathogen, which infects an increasing number of immunocompromised patients. In this study we combined genomic analysis of a clinical isolated A. xylosoxidans strain with phenotypic investigations of its important pathogenic features. We present a complete assembly of the genome of A. xylosoxidans NH44784-1996, an isolate from a cystic fibrosis patient obtained in 1996. The genome of A. xylosoxidans NH44784-1996 contains approximately 7 million base pairs with 6390 potential protein-coding sequences. We identified several features that render it an opportunistic human pathogen, We found genes involved in anaerobic growth and the pgaABCD operon encoding the biofilm adhesin poly-?-1,6-N-acetyl-D-glucosamin. Furthermore, the genome contains a range of antibiotic resistance genes coding efflux pump systems and antibiotic modifying enzymes. In vitro studies of A. xylosoxidans NH44784-1996 confirmed the genomic evidence for its ability to form biofilms, anaerobic growth via denitrification, and resistance to a broad range of antibiotics. Our investigation enables further studies of the functionality of important identified genes contributing to the pathogenicity of A. xylosoxidans and thereby improves our understanding and ability to treat this emerging pathogen.

Draft Genome Sequence of the Broad-Spectrum Xenobiotic Degrader Achromobacter xylosoxidans ADAF13.

Project description:Achromobacter xylosoxidansADAF13, isolated from farmland soil, possesses a large number of putative degradation genes and pathways that break down a wide variety of aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticides, endocrine disruptors, and other high-impact xenobiotics. These properties make this strain an excellent candidate for further development as a broad-spectrum bioremediation agent.

Complete Genome Sequence and Biodegradation Characteristics of Benzoic Acid-Degrading Bacterium <i>Pseudomonas</i> sp. SCB32.

Project description:Allelochemicals are metabolites produced by living organisms that have a detrimental effect on other species when released into the environment. These chemicals play critical roles in the problems associated with crop replanting. Benzoic acid is a representative allelochemical found in root exudates and rhizosphere soil of crops and inhibits crop growth. The bioremediation of allelochemicals by microorganisms is an efficient decontamination process. In this research, a bacterial strain capable of degrading benzoic acid as the sole carbon source was isolated. The genome of the strain was sequenced, and biodegradation characteristics and metabolic mechanisms were examined. Strain SCB32 was identified as Pseudomonas sp. based on 16S rRNA gene analysis coupled with physiological and biochemical analyses. The degradation rate of 800 mg L-1 benzoic acid by strain SCB32 was greater than 97.0% in 24 h. The complete genome of strain SCB32 was 6.3 Mbp with a GC content of 64.6% and 5960 coding genes. Potential benzoic acid degradation genes were found by comparison to the KEGG database. Some key intermediate metabolites of benzoic acid, such as catechol, were detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The biodegradation pathway of benzoic acid, the ortho pathway, is proposed for strain SCB32 based on combined data from genome annotation and mass spectrometry. Moreover, the benzoic acid degradation products from strain SCB32 were essentially nontoxic to lettuce seedlings, while seeds in the benzoic acid-treated group showed significant inhibition of germination. This indicates a possible application of strain SCB32 in the bioremediation of benzoic acid contamination in agricultural environments.
