Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biodegradability of eight different aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons (octane, decane, dodecane, ethylbenzene, butylbenzene, naphthalene, acenaphthene, and benzo[a]pyrene) was confirmed using Penicillium sp. CHY - 2 isolated from Antarctic soil. In addition, it was found that the enzyme manganese peroxidase (MnP) derived from strain CHY -2 was involved in the degradation of decane which showed the highest degradation rate among the tested aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. Furthermore, various rhizosphere microorganisms were isolated and found to be involved in hydrocarbon decomposition. As a result of confirming the gene of strain CHY-2 responsible for degradation, genes encoding cytochrome P450 hydroxylase, lignin peroxidase and vanillyl alcohol oxidase were confirmed.
