Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 contains a novel degradation pathway for limonene.
Strain DCL14, which is able to grow on limonene as a sole source of carbon and energy, was isolated from a freshwater sediment sample. This organism was identified as a strain of Rhodococcus erythropolis by chemotaxonomic and genetic studies. R. erythropolis DCL14 also assimilated the terpenes limonene-1,2-epoxide, limonene-1,2-diol, carveol, carvone, and (-)-menthol, while perillyl alcohol was...
متن کاملDegradation of hydrocarbons and alcohols at different temperatures and salinities by Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14.
Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 cells were able to metabolise C5-C16 hydrocarbons and C1-C12 alcohols as sole carbon and energy sources, both at 15 and 28 degrees C. Metabolic activity was also observed at 1.00%, 1.95% and 2.50% sodium chloride. Almost complete degradation of n-, iso- and cyclo-alkanes and aromatic compounds present in fuel oil was achieved after 9 months, 60% being consumed in ...
متن کاملLimonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase from Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 belongs to a novel class of epoxide hydrolases.
An epoxide hydrolase from Rhodococcus erythropolis DCL14 catalyzes the hydrolysis of limonene-1,2-epoxide to limonene-1,2-diol. The enzyme is induced when R. erythropolis is grown on monoterpenes, reflecting its role in the limonene degradation pathway of this microorganism. Limonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase was purified to homogeneity. It is a monomeric cytoplasmic enzyme of 17 kDa, and its N-ter...
متن کاملRhodococcus erythropolis Encephalitis in Patient Receiving Rituximab
To the Editor: Rhodococcus spp. infections occur predominantly in immunocompromised patients, and most infections are caused by Rhodococcus equi (1). Seven cases of R. erythropolis infections in humans have been described (2–8). None of these cases included a central nervous system infection (Table). We report a case of R. erythropolis meningoencephalitis in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis ...
متن کاملIsolation and Characterization of Carbendazim-degrading Rhodococcus erythropolis djl-11
Carbendazim (methyl 1H-benzimidazol-2-yl carbamate) is one of the most widely used fungicides in agriculture worldwide, but has been reported to have adverse effects on animal health and ecosystem function. A highly efficient carbendazim-degrading bacterium (strain dj1-11) was isolated from carbendazim-contaminated soil samples via enrichment culture. Strain dj1-11 was identified as Rhodococcus...
