Phytase (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate phospho-hydrolase, EC 3.1.3.8) catalyzes the hydrolysis of phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate) to release inorganic phosphate. A bacterial strain producing phytase was isolated from soil around a cattle shed. To identify the strain, cellular fatty acids profiles, the GC contents, a quinine-type analysis, and physiological test using an API 20NE kit were carried out. The strain was identified to be a genus of Pseudomonas sp. and named as Pseudomonas sp. YH40. The optimum culture condition for the maximum productivity of phytase by Pseudomonas sp. YH40 were attained in a culture medium composed of $1.0\%$ (w/v) glycerol, $2.0\%$ (w/v) peptone, and $0.2\%$ (w/v) $FeSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$. Within the optimal medium condition, the production of phytase became highest after 10 h of incubation, and the maximal phytase production by Pseudomonas sp. YH40 was observed at $37^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.0.

To improve stability of recombinant DNA pLC1 encoding endoglucanase gene and pGL1 encoding $\beta $-glucosidase gene, DNA fragments of genes coding endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase were cloned within the recA gene on a pDR1453, and the pDRE10 and pDRG20 of recombinant plasmids were integrated into the recA gene on the E. coli 1100 chromosomal DNAs. The stability of inheritance was completely maintained in E. coli 1100; Transformants E. coli 1100/pDREIO and pDRG20 were expressed well by recA promoter and increased endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase activities. This method can be used as a model to improve the stability of recombinant plasmid in large scale culture.

One of the three components of the phenanthrene dioxygenase which is required for conversion of phenanthrene to cis-phenanthrene dihydrodiol, Rieske-type ferredoxin encoded by phnR has been cloned and sequenced from Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ77. The gene phnR is positioned at the downstream of phnQ encoding 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase. The PhnR ferredoxin contains 108 amino acids with a Mr of 11,355. The deduced amino acid sequence of the PhnR ferredoxin is 35-79% identical to those of homologous ferredoxins encoded by various genes.

A tentative composition and some properties of biosurfactants, type I and type II, from Pseudomonas sp. SW1 are described. Biosurfactant type I and II are soluble in water, dichloromethane, chloroform, and a mixture of chloroform and methanol, respectively. The UV absorption spectrum of biosurfactants showed three characteristic peaks in the range of 212, 250 and 365nm, respectively. As a result of IR spectroscopy, GC/MS analysis and biochemical analysis, biosurfactant type I was a polymeric biosurfactant containing carbohydrate, lipid and protein. The carbohydrate was characterized as rhamnose. The lipid part consists of $C_{14}-C_{23}$ fatty acid when analyzed by GC/MS. The biosurfactant type II was a rhamnolipid consisting of carbohydrate and lipid.

토양의 생물학적 복원은 산업화로 무차별하게 오염되어 있는 국내 산업단지 주변과 지하수 환경보전을 위한 경제적 도구로 인식되어왔다. 본 연구는 친환경적 생물복원을 위한 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 유류로 오염된 양토에서 Pseudomonas sp. (KCCM 40055)를 접종한 polyurethane 매체환경을 적용, 유류의 성분중 PAH 분해도를 조사하였다. 다공성 매체로서 재현성이 뛰어나며 미생물 부착에 활용되어 온 polyurethane foam을 사용하여 미생물 부착성을 아울러 조사하였다. 사용된 PU중 최저공극 foam인 SR9-35C/G 의 경우 부착률과 PAH분해율이 가장 높았으며 토양함수율 증가에 따라 그 효율이 증가하였다.

In order to produce ascorbic acid-2-phosphate from ascorbic acid, bacteria capable of transforming ascorbic acid to ascorbic acid-2-phosphate were isolated from soils and the stock cultures in our laboratory. Among them, a newly isolated bacterium LSH-3 having the best ability of producing ascorbic acid-2-phosphate was selected and partially identified as Pseudomonas sp. The optimum conditions for the production of ascorbic acid-2-phosphate from ascorbic acid and using its resting cells as the source os enzyme were investigated. The results were summarized as follows: The optimum cultivation time and the cell weight for the production of ascorbic acid-2-phosphate was 14 hours and 100g/I(wet weight), respectively. And 0.1%(v/v) Trition X-100 was the most effective surfactant. The optimum concentrations of ascorbic acid and pyrophosphate were 400mM and 500mM, respectively, which led to produce 14.54g/I of ascorbic acid-2-phosphate. The most effective buffer was 50mM sodium acetate. The optimum pH and temperature were 4.5 and $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. Under the above conditions, 17.71 g/I of ascorbic acid-2-phosphate was produced from ascorbic acid after 32 hour-incubation, which corresponded to 17.5% of conversion rate based on ascorbic acid.

We attempted simultaneous expression of genes coding for endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase from Pseudomonas sp. by using a synthetic two-cistron svstem in Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Two-cistron system, 5'--tac promoter-endoglucanase gene--$\beta $-glucosidase gene-- 3', 5'-tac promoter--$\beta $-glucosidase gene--endoglucanase gene--3' and 5'-tac promoter--endoglucanase gene--SD sequence--$\beta $-glucosidase gene--3, were constructed, and expressed in E. coli and S. cerevisiae. The E. coli and S. cerevisiae contained two-cistron system produced simultaneously endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase. The recombinant genes contained the bacterial signal peptide sequence produced low level of endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase in S. cerevisiae transformants: Approximately above 44% of two enzymes was localized in the intracellular fraction. The production of endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase in veast was not repressed in the presence of glucose or cellobiose. The veast strain contained recombinant DNA with two genes hydrolyzed carboxvmethyl cellulose, and these endoglucanase and $\beta $-glucosidase degraded CMC synergistically to glucose, cellobiose and oligosaccharide. This result suggests the possibility of the direct bioconversion of cellulose to ethanol by the recombinant yeast.

남극 연안 툰드라 토양에서 리그닌 분해능이 있는 Pseudomonas sp. PAMC 29040를 분리하였으며, 이후 토양 유기물의 주요 구성성분인 복합유기화합물 부식질 분해능을 확인하였다. 부식질 초기 저분자화 효소(예, dye-decolorizing peroxidase)와 부식질 유래의 다양한 저분자 분해산물들을 분해하는 효소들(예, vanillate O-demethylase)를 탐색하기 위해 PAMC 29040 게놈 염기서열을 분석하였다. 분석을 통해서 최종 확보한 효소유전자 정보는 저온환경에 서식하는 토양 세균의 부식질 분해경로 제안에 활용될 것이다.

Psudomonas sp. RY-1이 생성하는 extracellular depolymerase system을 이용하여 단위체의 결가지에 서로 다른 탄소 길이와 불포와기를 함유하는 medium-chain-length polyhdroxyalkanoates (MCL-PHAs)의 생분해도를 시럼실 조건에서 조사하였다. 생분애도는 평파내지에서의 clear zone 형성, 효소 처리에 의한 고분자 현탁액의 탁도 감소 및 호흡량의 경시적 변화로 측정하였다. Pseudomonas sp. RY-1은 MCL-PHA depolymerase의 생성을 통하여 조사된 모든 종류의 MCl-PHAs를 분해할 수 있었으나, 이 효소의 생성은 쉽게 이용될수 있는 이차기질에 의해 저해받는 것으로 나타났다. MCl-PHAs의 분해율이 단위체의 탄소수가 홀수개로 구성된 고분자에 비하여 보다 높았다. 곁가지에 분포화기를 함유한 MCl-PHAs는 불포화기를 갖지 아니하는 고분자에 비하여 분해가 빠르게 이루어졌으며, 이들의 분해는 고분자의 결정화도와 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다.
