Ti Q, Gu C, Cai J, Fan X, Zhang Y, Bian Y, Sun C, Jiang X. Understanding the role of bacterial cellular adsorption, accumulation and bioavailability regulation by biosurfactant in affecting biodegradation efficacy of polybrominated diphenyl ethers. JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2020; 393:122382. [PMID: 32114132 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2020.122382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2019] [Revised: 02/01/2020] [Accepted: 02/21/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Microbiological degradation is often considered as an important strategy to reduce the risks of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), which are environmentally widespread and harmful to human health and wildlife. With the well-identified aerobic bacteria, i.e. B. xenovorans LB400, the biodegradation of 2,2',4,4'-tetrabrominated diphenyl ether (BDE-47) occurred efficiently in conformity to the first-order kinetics and showed the strong dependence on initial concentration of pollutant and bioavailability regulation by biosurfactant. The mild increase of initial concentration of BDE-47 would enhance biodegradation whereas the excessive increase failed due to the oxidative stress or cytotoxicity to bacteria. Rather than the bacterial extracellular adsorption that was bioactively-mediated in thermodynamics, the intracellular accumulations at different time gradients showed the negative correlation with biodegradation efficiency of BDE-47. The spontaneous biodegradation of pollutant should be sourced from the gradual reduction of intracellular accumulation. Though the improved bioavailability of BDE-47 by sucrose fatty acid ester (SFAE) hardly altered the extracellular adsorption, the bacterial intracellular accumulation was indicated to increase continuously with used amount of biosurfactant and then decrease for the cellular morphological damage, and interestingly it appeared to be temporary reservoir for prompt delivery to biodegradation in light of the opposite variation tendency with time.

Abstract
The widespread occurrence and distribution of organotin compounds (OTCs) in both marine and freshwater ecosystems has aroused considerable concerns in most countries worldwide. In this work, individual kinetics of the elimination of three butyltins and three phenyltins from C. demersum L. were systematically studied for over 240 h in clean water after a 48h period of accumulation. All OTCs were rapidly metabolized to nontoxic inorganic tin by C. demersum L. through stepwise debutylation or dephenylation. In addition to inorganic tin, monobutyltin (MBT) and monophenyltin (MPT) were the primary degradation products of tributyltin (TBT) and triphenyltin (TPT), with small amounts of dibutyltin (DBT) and diphenyltin (DPT), respectively, also being present. The estimated half-life of TPT (240 h) in C. demersum L. was longer than that of TBT (100 h), although the TPT was less hydrophobic. The corresponding degradation mechanisms may be attributed to a cascade of enzymatic reactions of CYP450 enzymes in C. demersum L. The pH played an important role in both plant growth and TBT degradation. Although pH 8.9 was more suitable for C. demersum L. growth, it uptook and metabolized more TBT at pH 5.0, which may be because the cationic species TBT+ (at pH 5.0) was metabolized more easily than the neutral hydroxide species TBTOH (at pH 8.9). C. demersum L. may thus be the plant with the most potential for the remediation of OTC-contaminated freshwater environments.

Abstract
Fluorophores SYTO 9 and propidium iodide (PI) are extensively applied in medicine, food industry and environmental monitoring to assess the viability of bacteria. However, the actual performance of these dyes remains largely unknown. In addition, their effects on the physiology of cells have not been elucidated. Here we characterized the effects of these two dyes on Brevibacillus brevis under optimized staining. We found that SYTO 9 entered cells continuously while PI tended to adhere to the cell wall before entering the cell. In addition, results showed that a high amount of the dyes altered the physicochemical properties of membranes, improving their breakthrough. These results provide new perspectives and ideas for improving the characterization of bacterial viability using flow cytometry.

Molecular Recognition and Cell Surface Biochemical Response of Bacillus thuringiensis on Triphenyltin. Processes (Basel) 2019.

Abstract
Triphenyltin (TPT) has severely polluted the environment, and it often coexists with metal ions, such as Cu2+. This paper describes the cell’s molecular recognition of TPT, the interaction between TPT recognition and Cu2+ biosorption, and their effect on cell permeability. We studied the recognition of TPT by Bacillus thuringiensis cells and the effect of TPT recognition on Cu2+ biosorption by using atomic force microscopy to observe changes in cell surface mechanical properties and cellular morphology and by using flow cytometry to determine the cell growth status and cell permeability. The results show that B. thuringiensis can quickly recognize different media. The adhesion force of cells in contact with Tween 80 was significantly reduced to levels that were much lower than that of cells in contact with PBS. Conversely, the cell surface adhesion force increased as TPT became more degraded. B. thuringiensis cells maintained their original morphology after 48 h of TPT treatment. The amount of Cu2+ adsorption by TPT-treated cells was positively correlated with the surface adhesion force (r = 0.966, P = 0.01). The cell adhesion force significantly decreased after Cu2+ adsorption, and cell recognition of TPT and/or Cu2+ hindered the entrance of 2’,7’-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) into the cell. The initial diffusion time of DCFH-DA into cells treated by PBS, Cu2+, TPT, and TPT+Cu2+ was 4, 10, 30, and 30 min, respectively, and the order of the fluorescence intensity was PBS >> Cu2+ > TPT > TPT+Cu2+. We conclude that changes in the cell surface properties of the microbe during recognition of pollutants depend on the contaminant’s properties. B. thuringiensis recognized TPT and secreted intracellular substances that not only enhanced the adsorption of Cu2+, but also formed a “barrier” on the cell surface that reduced permeability. These findings provide a novel insight into the mechanism of microbial removal of pollutants.

Abstract
The relationship between benzo(a)pyrene biodegradation and certain target biomolecules has been investigated. To regulate the degradation process, the associated metabolism network must be clarified. To this end, benzo(a)pyrene degradation, carbon substrate metabolism and exometabolomic mechanism of Bacillus thuringiensis were analyzed. Benzo(a)pyrene was degraded through hydroxylation catalyzed by cytochrome P450 hydroxylase. After the treatment of 0.5 mg L-1 of benzo(a)pyrene by 0.2 g L-1 of cells for 9 d, biosorption and degradation efficiencies were measured at approximately 90% and 80%, respectively. During this process, phospholipid synthesis, glycogen, asparagine, arginine, itaconate and xylose metabolism were significantly downregulated, while glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, citrate cycle, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism were significantly upregulated. These findings offer insight into the biotransformation regulation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Abstract
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a worldwide, widespread pollutant with estrogen mimicking and hormone-like properties. To date, some target biomolecules associated with BPA toxicity have been confirmed. The limited information has not clarified the related metabolism at the pathway and network levels. To this end, metabolic and proteomic approaches were performed to reveal the synthesis of phospholipids and proteins and the metabolic network during the BPA degradation process. The results showed that the degradation efficiency of 1 μM of BPA by 1 g L-1 of Bacillus thuringiensis was up to 85% after 24 h. During this process, BPA significantly changed the membrane permeability; altered sporulation, amino acid and protein expression, and carbon, purine, pyrimidine and fatty acid metabolism; enhanced C14:0, C16:1ω7, C18:2ω6, C18:1ω9t and C18:0 synthesis; and increased the trans/cis ratio of C18:1ω9t/C18:1ω9c. It also depressed the spore DNA stability of B. thuringiensis. Among the 14 upregulated and 7 down-regulated proteins, SasP-1 could be a biomarker to reflect BPA-triggered spore DNA impairment. TpiA, RpoA, GlnA and InfA could be phosphorylated at the active sites of serine and tyrosine. The findings presented novel insights into the interaction among BPA stress, BPA degradation, phospholipid synthesis and protein expression at the network and phylogenetic levels.

Abstract
Erythromycin is one of the most widely used macrolide antibiotics. To present a system-level understanding of erythromycin stress and degradation, proteome, phospholipids and membrane potentials were investigated after the erythromycin degradation. Bacillus thuringiensis could effectively remove 77% and degrade 53% of 1 µM erythromycin within 24 h. The 36 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated proteins were mainly involved in spore germination, chaperone and nucleic acid binding. Up-regulated ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase and ribosomal proteins confirmed that the synthesis of protein, DNA and RNA were enhanced after the erythromycin degradation. The reaction network of glycolysis/gluconeogenesis was activated, whereas, the activity of spore germination was decreased. The increased synthesis of phospholipids, especially, palmitoleic acid and oleic acid, altered the membrane permeability for erythromycin transport. Ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase and palmitoleic acid could be biomarkers to reflect erythromycin exposure. Lipids, disease, pyruvate metabolism and citrate cycle in human cells could be the target pathways influenced by erythromycin. The findings presented novel insights to the interaction among erythromycin stress, protein interaction and metabolism network, and provided a useful protocol for investigating cellular metabolism responses under pollutant stress.

Abstract
Triclosan is a common antibacterial agent widely applied in various household and personal care products. The molecule, cell, organ and organism-level understanding of its toxicity pose to some target organisms has been investigated, whereas, the alteration of a single metabolic reaction, gene or protein cannot reflect the impact of triclosan on metabolic network. To clarify the interaction between triclosan stress and metabolism at network and system levels, phospholipid synthesis, and cellular proteome and metabolism of Bacillus thuringiensis under 1μM of triclosan stress were investigated through omics approaches. The results showed that C14:0, C16:1ω7, C16:0 and C18:2ω6 were significantly up-produced, and 19 proteins were differentially expressed. Whereas, energy supply, protein repair and the synthesis of DNA, RNA and protein were down-regulated. PyrH and Eno could be biomarkers to reflect triclosan stress. At network level, the target proteins ACOX1, AHR, CAR, CYP1A, CYP1B1, DNMT1, ENO, HSP60, HSP70, SLC5A5, TPO and UGT expressed in different species shared high sequence homology with the same function proteins found in Homo sapiens not only validated their role as biomarkers but also implied the potential impact of triclosan on the metabolic pathways and network of humans. These findings provided novel insights into the metabolic influence of triclosan at network levels, and developed an omics approach to evaluate the safety of target compound.

Abstract
Herein, triphenyltin (TPT) biodegradation efficiency and its transformation pathway have been elucidated. To better understand the molecular mechanism of TPT degradation, the interactions between amino acids, primary structures, and quaternary conformations of effector proteins and TPT were studied. The results verified that TPT recognition and binding depended on amino acid sequences but not on secondary, tertiary or quaternary protein structure. During this process, TPT could change the molecular weight and isoelectric point of effector proteins, induce their methylation or demethylation, and alter their conformation. The effector proteins, alkyl hydroperoxide reductase and acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase, recognizing TPT were crucial to TPT degradation. Electron transfer flavoprotein subunit alpha, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase, aconitate hydratase, branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase E1 component, biotin carboxylase and superoxide dismutase were related to energy and carbon metabolism, which was consistent with the results in vivo. The current findings develop a new approach for investigating the interactions between proteins and target compounds.

Abstract
Although triphenyltin (TPT) degradation pathway has been determined, information about the enzyme and protein networks involved was severely limited. To this end, a cytochrome P450 hydroxylase (CYP450) gene from Bacillus thuringiensis was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3), namely E. coli pET32a-CYP450, whose dosage at 1gL-1 could degrade 54.6% TPT at 1mgL-1 within 6 d through attacking the carbon-tin bonds of TPT by CYP450. Sequence analysis verified that the CYP450 gene had a 1214bp open reading frame, encoding a protein with 404 amino acids. Proteomic analysis determined that 60 proteins were significantly differentially regulated expression in E. coli pET32a-CYP450 after TPT degradation. The up-regulated proteins enriched in a network related to transport, cell division, biosynthesis of amino acids and secondary metabolites, and microbial metabolism in diverse environments. The current findings demonstrated for the first time that P450 received electrons transferring from NADH could effectively cleave carbon-metal bonds.

Abstract
Although the degradation of cyanotoxins by 254 nm UV/H2O2 has been well elucidated, the efficiency and mechanism involved are not necessarily true for other UV wavelengths. The degradation of microcystin-LR (MC-LR), a representative cyanotoxin, was explored by UV/H2O2 using 265 nm ultraviolet light-emitting diode (UV-LED). The results indicated that 265 nm UV/H2O2 treatment had a high removal efficiency of MC-LR ([MC-LR] = 0.1 μM, apparent rate constants reached 0.2077 min-1, half-time at 3.3 min). The qualitative analyses demonstrated that three novel intermediates, C48H74N10O15 (molecular weight = 1030.5335), C36H58N10O14 (854.4134), and C33H54N10O14 (814.3821), were generated in 265 nm UV/H2O2. Five published intermediates were also confirmed. The generative pathway of these products mainly involved free hydroxyl radical oxidation, resulting in consecutive hydroxyl substitutions and hydroxyl additions of unsaturated bonds in MC-LR. The toxicity of MC-LR was weaken with a relative low mineralization. The electrical energy per order values were calculated to be in the range of 0.00447 to 0.00612 kWh m-3 order-1 for 100-5000 μg L-1 MC-LR. Overall, 265 nm UV-LED/H2O2 can be used as an alternative effective technology to improve the removal efficiency of MC-LR in water.

Abstract
Degradation pathway and surface biosorption of triphenyltin (TPT) by effective microbes have been investigated in the past. However, unclear interactions among membrane components and TPT binding and transport are still obstacles to understanding TPT biotransformation. To reveal the mechanism involved, the phospholipid expression, membrane potential, cellular mechanism and molecular dynamics between TPT and fatty acids (FAs) during the TPT degradation process in the presence of d-malic acid (DMA) were studied. The results show that the degradation efficiency of 1 mg L-1 TPT by Bacillus thuringiensis (1 g L-1) with 0.5 or 1 mg L-1 DMA reached values up to approximately 90% due to the promotion of element metabolism and cellular activity, and the depression of FA synthesis induced by DMA. The addition of DMA caused conversion of more linoleic acid into 10-oxo-12(Z)-octadecenoic acid, increased the membrane permeability, and alleviated the decrease in membrane potential, resulting in TPT transport and degradation. Fluorescence analysis reveals that the endospore of B. thuringiensis could act as an indicator for membrane potential and cellular activities. The current findings are advantageous for acceleration of biosorption, transport and removal of pollutants from natural environments.
