Genetic and chemical characterization of ibuprofen degradation by Sphingomonas Ibu-2

Abstract: Sphingomonas Ibu-2 has the unusual ability to cleave the acid side chain from the pharmaceutical ibuprofen and related arylacetic acid derivatives to yield corresponding catechols under aerobic conditions via a previously uncharacterized mechanism. Screening a chromosomal library of Ibu-2 DNA in Escherichia coli EPI300 allowed us to identify one fosmid clone (pFOS3G7) that conferred the ability to metabolize ibuprofen to isobutylcatechol. Characterization of pFOS3G7 loss-of-function transposon mutants permitte… Show more

“…This interaction may occur via the N-terminal DUF35/DUF35N domain of Shy, which is also present in the predicted proteins encoded by ipfE and bbsA in Sphingomonas sp. strain Ibu-2 and T. aromatica strain K172, respectively (42,44). Interestingly, in both cases, these proteins are thought to be required for the activity of the SCP-x-type enzyme (IbfD or BbsB).…”

“…Another example, albeit in an environmental setting, is ibuprofen, which can be metabolized by an environmental strain of Sphingomonas sp. Ibu2 ( Figure , Table 1 ). This mechanism provides a potential opportunity for bioremediation of pharmaceutical waste in the environment.…”
