摘要
A promising bacterial strain for biodegradingmicrocystin-LR(MC-LR)as the sole carbon and nitrogensource was successfully isolated from Lake Dianchi,China.The strain was identified as Sphingopyxis sp.USTB-05,which was the first isolated MCs-biodegradingSphingopyxis sp.in China.The average biodegradationrate of MC-LR by Sphingopyxis sp.USTB-05 was 28.8mg·L^(-1)per day,which was apparently higher than those ofother bacteria reported so far.The optimal temperature andpH for both strain USTB-05 growth and MC-LRbiodegradation were 30℃and 7.0,respectively.Therelease of MC-LR from the cyanobacterial cells collectedfrom Lake Guishui and the biodegradation of MC-LR byboth strain and cell-free extract(CE)were investigated.The results indicated that MC-LR with the initialconcentration of 4.0 mg·L^(-1)in water was biodegraded bySphingopyxis sp.USTB-05 within 4 d,while MC-LR withthe initial concentration of 28.8 mg·L^(-1)could be completelyremoved in 3 h by CE of Sphingopyxis sp.USTB-05 containing 350 mg·L^(-1)protein.During enzymaticbiodegradation of MC-LR,two intermediate metabolitesand a dead-end product were observed on an HPLCchromatogram.Moreover,the similar scanning profiles ofMC-LR and its metabolic products indicate that the Addaside-chain of MC-LR was kept intact in all products.
