| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The chlorinated organophosphorus compounds tris(2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) and tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl)phosphate (TDCPP) are persistent and widespread contaminants in various environments. Many studies have shown several toxic effects of the compounds. We have isolated novel bacteria degrading trihaloalkyl phosphates, Sphingobium sp. strain TCM1 and Sphingomonas sp. strain TDK1, and purified and characterized phosphotriesterases, catalyzing the first step of TCEP and TDCPP degradation, from strain TCM1 and TDK1, respectively. We designated those enzymes as haloalkylphosphorus hydrolase (TCM-HAD and TDK-HAD). The corresponding genes of the enzymes have been cloned and analyzed.
In this study, we analyzed regulatory mechanism of gene expression of TCM-HAD and possible involvement of two enzymes, phosphodiesterase and phosphomonoesterase such as alkaline phosphatase, in the TCEP degradation.
