Bacterial pyridine hydroxylation is ubiquitous in environment

Abstract: Ten phenol-degrading bacterial strains were isolated from three geographically distant environments. Five of them, identified as Diaphorobacter, Acidovorax, Acinetobacter (two strains), and Corynebacterium, could additionally transform pyridine, through the transcription of phenol hydroxylase genes induced both by phenol and pyridine. HPLC-UV and LC-MS analyses indicated that one metabolite (m/e = 96.07) with the same molecular weight as monohydroxylated pyridine was produced from the five phenol-degrading str… Show more

“…Considering phenol and pyridine are representative components in coking wastewater [12,23,27], functions of strains isolated from the coking wastewater, including strain J5-3 T , in degrading phenol and pyridine were investigated in our previous study [28]. Results revealed that strain J5-3 T was unable to use either of the two compounds for growth, and was absent of phenol hydroxylase gene.…”

“…indole, pyridine and quinoline) usually co‐exist in petrochemical and coking wastewater . Previous studies indicated that the phenol‐degrading strains showed potential for biodegradation and biotransformation of N ‐heterocyclic compounds, such as pyridine, quinoline, indole and carbazole . In this study, it was proven that the nitrogen‐containing organic pollutants (indole, pyridine and quinoline) could be effectively removed by phenol‐stimulated activated sludge.…”

“…QM and phenol‐stimulated activated sludge could catalyze the biotransformation of indole to indigoids . Several phenol‐degrading strains, Diaphorobacter , Acidovorax , Acinetobacter and Corynebacterium , were able to transform pyridine via hydroxylation by phenol hydroxylase . The addition of phenol‐degrading microorganism ( Lysinibacillus sp.…”
