Abstract
A Gram-stain-negative, motile, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain LAM2020T, was isolated from a sulfonylurea herbicides-degrading bacterial consortium. The optimal temperature and pH for the growth of strain LAM2020T were 30 °C and 7.0, respectively. Strain LAM2020T formed a distinct phylogenetic subclade within the genus Cedecea in the phylogenetic trees built with 16S rRNA gene sequences and shared the highest similarity with Cedecea davisae DSM 4568T (98.4%). The values of digital DNA-DNA hybridization and average nucleotide identity (ANI) based on the genome sequences between LAM2020T and C. davisae DSM 4568T were 22.7% and 80.0%, respectively. It contained 54.0 mol% of G + C in the genomic DNA. The major cellular fatty acids of strain LAM2020T were summed feature 3 (C16:1 ω6c and/or C16:1 ω7c), C16:0 and summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c). The major polar lipids present in strain LAM2020T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine and aminophospholipid. The respiratory quinone of strain LAM2020T was ubiquinone-8 and ubiquinone-7. Based on the phenotypic characteristics, chemotaxonomic data and genotypic analyses, strain LAM2020T should be classified as a novel species of genus Cedecea, for which the name Cedecea sulfonylureivorans sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LAM2020T (= GDMCC 1.2363T = JCM 34640T).

A Novel Pathway of Chlorimuron-Ethyl Biodegradation by Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans Strain CHL1 and Its Molecular Mechanisms. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23179890. [PMID: 36077288 PMCID: PMC9456165 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23179890] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2022] [Revised: 08/21/2022] [Accepted: 08/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Chlorimuron-ethyl is a widely used herbicide in agriculture. However, uncontrolled chlorimuron-ethyl application causes serious environmental problems. Chlorimuron-ethyl can be effectively degraded by microbes, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, we identified the possible pathways and key genes involved in chlorimuron-ethyl degradation by the Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans strain CHL1, a Methylocystaceae strain with the ability to degrade sulfonylurea herbicides. Using a metabolomics method, eight intermediate degradation products were identified, and three pathways, including a novel pyrimidine-ring-opening pathway, were found to be involved in chlorimuron-ethyl degradation by strain CHL1. Transcriptome sequencing indicated that three genes (atzF, atzD, and cysJ) are involved in chlorimuron-ethyl degradation by strain CHL1. The gene knock-out and complementation techniques allowed for the functions of the three genes to be identified, and the enzymes involved in the different steps of chlorimuron-ethyl degradation pathways were preliminary predicted. The results reveal a previously unreported pathway and the key genes of chlorimuron-ethyl degradation by strain CHL1, which have implications for attempts to enrich the biodegradation mechanism of sulfonylurea herbicides and to construct engineered bacteria in order to remove sulfonylurea herbicide residues from environmental media.

Abstract
Actinobacteria are the main producers of bioactive natural products essential for human health. Although their diversity in the atmosphere remains largely unexplored, using a multidisciplinary approach, we studied here 27 antibiotic producing Actinobacteria strains, isolated from 13 different precipitation events at three locations in Northern and Southern Spain. Rain samples were collected throughout 2013-2016, from events with prevailing Western winds. NOAA HYSPLIT meteorological analyses were used to estimate the sources and trajectories of the air-mass that caused the rainfall events. Five-day backward air masses trajectories of the diverse events reveals a main oceanic source from the North Atlantic Ocean, and in some events long range transport from the Pacific and the Arctic Oceans; terrestrial sources from continental North America and Western Europe were also estimated. Different strains were isolated depending on the precipitation event and the latitude of the sampling site. Taxonomic identification by 16S rRNA sequencing and phylogenetic analysis revealed these strains to belong to two Actinobacteria genera. Most of the isolates belong to the genus Streptomyces, thus increasing the number of species of this genus isolated from the atmosphere. Furthermore, five strains belonging to the rare Actinobacterial genus Nocardiopsis were isolated in some events. These results reinforce our previous Streptomyces atmospheric dispersion model, which we extend herein to the genus Nocardiopsis. Production of bioactive secondary metabolites was analyzed by LC-UV-MS. Comparative analyses of Streptomyces and Nocardiopsis metabolites with natural product databases led to the identification of multiple, chemically diverse, compounds. Among bioactive natural products identified 55% are antibiotics, both antibacterial and antifungal, and 23% have antitumor or cytotoxic properties; also compounds with antiparasitic, anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, antiviral, insecticidal, neuroprotective, anti-arthritic activities were found. Our findings suggest that over time, through samples collected from different precipitation events, and space, in different sampling places, we can have access to a great diversity of Actinobacteria producing an extraordinary reservoir of bioactive natural products, from remote and very distant origins, thus highlighting the atmosphere as a contrasted source for the discovery of novel compounds of relevance in medicine and biotechnology.

Abstract
Covering: up to January 2017Cytochrome P450 enzymes (P450s) are some of the most exquisite and versatile biocatalysts found in nature. In addition to their well-known roles in steroid biosynthesis and drug metabolism in humans, P450s are key players in natural product biosynthetic pathways. Natural products, the most chemically and structurally diverse small molecules known, require an extensive collection of P450s to accept and functionalize their unique scaffolds. In this review, we survey the current catalytic landscape of P450s within the Streptomyces genus, one of the most prolific producers of natural products, and comprehensively summarize the functionally characterized P450s from Streptomyces. A sequence similarity network of >8500 P450s revealed insights into the sequence-function relationships of these oxygen-dependent metalloenzymes. Although only ∼2.4% and <0.4% of streptomycete P450s have been functionally and structurally characterized, respectively, the study of streptomycete P450s involved in the biosynthesis of natural products has revealed their diverse roles in nature, expanded their catalytic repertoire, created structural and mechanistic paradigms, and exposed their potential for biomedical and biotechnological applications. Continued study of these remarkable enzymes will undoubtedly expose their true complement of chemical and biological capabilities.

Abstract
Tributyl phosphate (TBP) is a toxic organophosphorous compound widely used in nuclear fuel processing and chemical industries. Rhodopseudomonas palustris, one of the most metabolically versatile photosynthetic bacteria, is shown here to degrade TBP efficiently under photosynthetic conditions. This study shows that this O(2)- and NADPH/FMNH(2)-dependent process was also catalyzed when TBP was incubated with membrane-associated proteins extracted from this strain. The effects of several regulators of cytochrome P450 activity on the TBP consumption suggest a key role for a cytochrome P450 in this process. Disruption of the rpa0241 gene encoding a putative cytochrome P450 led to a 60% decrease of the TBP catabolism, whereas reintroducing the gene in the mutant restored the wild-type phenotype. The rpa0241 gene was expressed and purified in Escherichia coli. Characterization by UV-visible spectroscopy of the purified recombinant membrane-bound protein (CYP201A2) encoded by the rpa0241 gene revealed typical spectral characteristics of cytochrome P450 with a large spin state change of the heme iron associated with binding of TBP (K (d) approximately 65 microM). It is proposed that CYP201A2 catalyzes the initial step of the biodegradation process of TBP.

Abstract
The herbicide-inducible, soluble cytochrome P450s CYP105A1 and CYP105B1 and their adjacent ferredoxins, Fd1 and Fd2, of Streptomyces griseolus were expressed in Escherichia coli to high levels. Conditions for high-level expression of active enzyme able to catalyze hydroxylation have been developed. Analysis of the expression levels of the P450 proteins in several different E. coli expression hosts identified E. coli BL21 Star(DE3)pLysS as the optimal host cell to express CYP105B1 as judged by CO difference spectra. Examination of the codons used in the CYP1051A1 sequence indicated that it contains a number of codons corresponding to rare E. coli tRNA species. The level of its expression was improved in the modified forms of E. coli BL21(DE3), which contain extra copies of rare codon E. coli tRNA genes. The activity of correctly folded cytochrome P450s was further enhanced by cloning a ferredoxin reductase from Streptomyces coelicolor downstream of CYP105A1 and CYP105B1 and their adjacent ferredoxins. Expression of CYP105A1 and CYP105B1 was also achieved in Streptomyces lividans 1326 by cloning the P450 genes and their ferredoxins into the expression vector pBW160. S. lividans 1326 cells containing CYP105A1 or CYP105B1 were able efficiently to dealkylate 7-ethoxycoumarin.

Abstract
Actinomycetes have considerable potential for the biotransformation and biodegradation of pesticides. Members of this group of Gram-positive bacteria have been found to degrade pesticides with widely different chemical structures, including organochlorines, s-triazines, triazinones, carbamates, organophosphates, organophosphonates, acetanilides, and sulfonylureas. A limited number of these xenobiotic pesticides can be mineralized by single isolates, but often consortia of bacteria are required for complete degradation. Cometabolism of pesticides is frequently observed within this group of bacteria. When compared with pesticide degradation by Gram-negative bacteria, much less information about molecular mechanisms involved in biotransformations of pesticides by actinomycetes is available. Progress in this area has been seriously hampered by a lack of suitable molecular genetic tools for most representatives of this major group of soil bacteria. Overcoming this constraint would enable a better exploitation of the biodegradation and biotransformation abilities of actinomycetes for applications such as bioremediation and construction of transgenic herbicide-resistant crops.

Abstract
P450SU1 and P450SU2 are herbicide-inducible bacterial cytochrome P450 enzymes from Streptomyces griseolus. They have two of the highest sequence indentities to camphor hydroxylase (P450cam from Pseudomonas putida), the cytochrome P450 with the first known crystal structure. We have built several models of these two proteins to investigate the variability in the structures that can occur from using different modeling protocols. We looked at variability due to alignment methods, backbone loop conformations and refinement methods. We have constructed two models for each protein using two alignment algorithms, and then an additional model using an identical alignment but different loop conformations for both buried and surface loops. The alignments used to build the models were created using the Needleman-Wunsch method, adapted for multiple sequences, and a manual method that utilized both a dot-matrix search matrix and the Needleman-Wunsch method. After constructing the initial models, several energy minimization methods were used to explore the variability in the final models caused by the choice of minimization techniques. Features of cytochrome P450cam and the cytochrome P450 superfamily, such as the ferredoxin binding site, the heme binding site and the substrate binding site were used to evaluate the validity of the models. Although the final structures were very similar between the models with different alignments, active-site residues were found to be dependent on the conformations of buried loops and early stages of energy minimization. We show which regions of the active site are the most dependent on the particular methods used, and which parts of the structures seem to be independent of the methods.

Abstract
We have identified the promoters for two inducible genes, in Streptomyces griseolus, that encode herbicide-metabolizing cytochromes P-450. They are in the class of promoters that have -35 and -10 sequences similar to those used in Escherichia coli by RNA polymerase E sigma 70. Transcription from either promoter was shown to be induced by sulfonylurea (chlorimuron ethyl) or phenobarbital. Mapping of mRNA showed that each cytochrome P450-encoding gene was transcribed on a separate multicistronic mRNA that encodes cytochrome P-450 (suaC or subC), ferredoxin (suaB or subB) and at least one other open reading frame. An inducible, site-specific DNA-binding activity was identified that bound to two similar 8-bp inverted repeat sequences within or near the sua promoter (suaP). A noninducible DNA-binding activity, distinct from that which bound to suaP, was found that bound to an 11-bp inverted repeat at the sub transcription start point.

Abstract
Many species within the order Actinomycetales contain one or more soluble cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, often substrate-inducible and responsible for a variety of xenobiotic transformations. The individual cytochromes exhibit a relatively broad substrate specificity, and some strains have the capacity to synthesize large amounts of the protein(s) to compensate for low catalytic turnover with some substrates. All three of the Streptomyces cytochromes sequenced to date are exclusive members of one P450 family, CYP105. In several instances, monooxygenase activity arises from induction of a P450 and associated ferredoxin, or of a P450 only, suggesting that some essential electron donor proteins (reductase and ferredoxin) are not co-ordinately regulated with the cytochrome. The overall properties of these systems suggest an adaptive strategy whose twofold purpose is to maintain a competitive advantage via the production of secondary metabolites, and, whenever possible, to utilize unusual growth substrates by introducing metabolites from these reactions into the more substrate-specific primary metabolic pathways.
