Actinobacterial peroxidase-mediated biodeterioration of hazardous explosive, 2, 4, 6, trinitrophenol by in silico and in vitro approaches. ENVIRONMENTAL GEOCHEMISTRY AND HEALTH 2024; 46:102. [PMID: 38433158 DOI: 10.1007/s10653-024-01903-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
Explosives are perilous and noxious to aquatic biota disrupting their endocrinal systems. Supplementarily, they exhibit carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic effects on humans and animals. Henceforth, the current study has been targeted to biotransform the explosive, 2, 4, 6 trinitrophenol (TNP) by wetland peroxidase from Streptomyces coelicolor. A total peroxidase yield of 20,779 mg/l with 51.6 folds of purification was observed. In silico molecular docking cum in vitro appraisals were accomplished to assess binding energy and interacting binding site residues of peroxidase and TNP complex. TNP required a minimal binding energy of-6.91 kJ/mol and was subjected to biodeterioration (89.73%) by peroxidase in purified form, with 45 kDa and a similarity score of 34 by MASCOT protein analysis. Moreover, the peroxidase activity was confirmed with Zymogram analysis. Characterization of peroxidase revealed that optimum values of pH and temperature as 6 and 40 °C, respectively, with their corresponding stability varying from 3.5 to 7. Interestingly, the kinetic parameters such as Km and Vmax on 2,2'-azino-bis 3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS) and H2O2 were 19.27 µm and 0.41 µm/min; 21.4 µm and 0.1 µm/min, respectively. Among the diverse substrates, chemicals and trace elements, ABTS (40 mM), citric acid (5 mM) and Fe2+ (5 mM) displayed the highest peroxidase activity. Computational docking and in vitro results were corroborative and UV-Vis spectroscopy, HPLC, FTIR and GC-MS indicated the presence of simple metabolites of TNP such as nitrophenols and benzoquinone, showcasing the efficacy of S. coelicolor peroxidase to biotransform TNP. Henceforth, the current study offers a promising channel for biological treatment of explosive munitions, establishing a sustainable green earth.

Zhang S, Feng L, Han Y, Xu Z, Xu L, An X, Zhang Q. Revealing the degrading-possibility of methyl red by two azoreductases of Anoxybacillus sp. PDR2 based on molecular docking. CHEMOSPHERE 2024; 351:141173. [PMID: 38232904 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024]
Abstract
Azo dyes, as the most widely used synthetic dyes, are considered to be one of the culprits of water resources and environmental pollution. Anoxybacillus sp. PDR2 is a thermophilic bacterium with the ability to degrade azo dyes, whose genome contains two genes encoding azoreductases (named AzoPDR2-1 and AzoPDR2-2). In this study, through response surface methodology (RSM), when the initial pH, inoculation volume and Mg2+ addition amount were 7.18, 10.72% and 0.1 g/L respectively, the decolorization rate of methyl red (MR) (200 mg/L) could reach its maximum (98.8%). The metabolites after biodegradation were detected by UV-Vis spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), indicating that MR was successfully decomposed into 4-aminobenzoic acid and other small substrates. In homologous modeling, it was found that both azoreductases were flavin-dependent azoreductases, and belonged to the α/β structure, using the Rossmann fold. In their docking results with the cofactor flavin mononucleotide (FMN), FMN bound to the surface of the protein dimer. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was superimposed on the plane of the pyrazine ring between FMN and the activity pocket of protein. Besides, both azoreductase complexes (azoreductase-FMN-NADH) exhibited a substrate preference for MR. Asn104 and Tyr74 played an important role in the combination of the azoreductase AzoPDR2-1 complex and the azoreductase AzoPDR2-2 complex with MR, respectively. This provided assistance for studying the mechanism of azoreductase biodegradation of azo dyes in thermophilic bacteria.

Abstract
Due to their widespread occurrence and the inadequate removal efficiencies by conventional wastewater treatment plants, emerging contaminants (ECs) have recently become an issue of great concern. Current ongoing studies have focused on different physical, chemical, and biological methods as strategies to avoid exposing ecosystems to significant long-term risks. Among the different proposed technologies, the enzyme-based processes rise as green biocatalysts with higher efficiency yields and lower generation of toxic by-products. Oxidoreductases and hydrolases are among the most prominent enzymes applied for bioremediation processes. The present work overviews the state of the art of recent advances in enzymatic processes during wastewater treatment of EC, focusing on recent innovations in terms of applied immobilization techniques, genetic engineering tools, and the advent of nanozymes. Future trends in the enzymes immobilization techniques for EC removal were highlighted. Research gaps and recommendations on methods and utility of enzymatic treatment incorporation in conventional wastewater treatment plants were also discussed.

CHEMOSPHERE 2023; 333:138934. [PMID: 37182707 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2023.138934] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023]
Abstract
Doping transition metal ions into cerium oxide (CeO2) results in interesting modifications to the material, including an increase in surface area, a high isoelectric point, biocompatibility, greater ionic conductivity, and catalytic activity. Herein, various concentrations (1-5%, 10% and 20%) of nickel (Ni) doped CeO2 nanoparticle have been made by a facile chemical process. Using a variety of cutting-edge analytical techniques, the structural, optical, and photocatalytic properties of undoped and varied concentrations (1-5%, 10%, and 20%) of Ni doped CeO2 nanoparticles have been investigated. Pure cubic fluorite structure with average crystallite sizes in the region of 12-15 nm was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) investigation. High resolution electron microscopy (HR-TEM), which revealed highly homogeneous hexagonal shape of the particles with average size of 15 nm, was also used to determine microstructural information. According to the optical absorption, the band gaps of Ni doped and undoped CeO2 nanoparticles were found to be 2.96 eV and 1.95 eV, respectively. When exposed to sunlight, the narrow band gap Ni doped CeO2 nanoparticles worked as an active visible light catalyst to remove the dyes Rose Bengal (RB) and Direct Yellow (DY). The best photodegradation efficiencies for RB and DY dyes were found about 93% and 97%, respectively, using the 5% Ni-doped CeO2 catalyst. The apparent rate constant values of 0.039 for RB and 0.040 min-1 were attained for DY. As well, the treated, untreated dye solution and control solutions were utilized to assess the toxicity of commercially accessible Vigna Radiata seeds. In this study exhibits percentages of length and germination increased by 30-35% when compared to dye pollutant solution. The Ni doped CeO2 can provide a substantial alternative for current industrial waste management because of its quick photocatalytic activity and remarkable seed germination results.
