摘要:

聚乙烯(polyethylene, PE)塑料结构稳定,难以自然降解,对环境造成严重污染。大蜡螟(Galleria mellonella L.)幼虫取食聚乙烯后,排泄物出现羰基(C-O)和羟基(R-OH)官能团,能够使PE膜长链结构发生解聚。为研究其原理,基于免培养技术,对大蜡螟幼虫肠道内容物进行宏基因组和宏蛋白质组分析,挖掘得到2个潜在新PE降解酶基因POD8747AhpC5341,并在大肠杆菌表达系统中进行了异源表达、纯化和初步性质分析。结果表明,重组POD8747和AhpC5341的最适温度均为50 ℃,最适pH均为8.0。经POD8747和AhpC5341处理后的PE膜亲水性增加,且其接触角从100?分别降低到(90.07±3.45)和(91.73±1.70)?。以上结果表明,POD8747和AhpC5341在PE降解中能够发挥表面氧化能力,从而促进其他酶进一步降解PE。

Abstract:

Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most widely used plastic, which has stable structure, difficult to degrade and causes great pollution to the environment. In this study, the changes of PE in gut of Galleria mellonella L. larvae were investigated, the appearance of carbonyl (C-O) and hydroxyl (R-OH) functional groups indicated that the long chain structure in PE plastic film was depolymerized. Based on culture-independent method, high-throughput metagenomic and metaproteomic analysis of the microorganism in the intestinal contents of Galleria mellonella L., two PE degrading enzyme encoding genes, POD8747 and Ahpc5341, were identified. Heterologous expression, purification and characterization were performed for both genes in Escherichia coli. The results showed the optimal temperature and optimal pH for both POD8747 and AhpC5341 were 50 ℃ and 8.0, respectively. The purified enzyme was evaluated for biodegradation of PE, after treated by POD8747 and AhpC5341, the PE film’s hydrophilicity increased and its contact angle of the PE film decreased from 100° to (90.07±3.45) and (91.73±1.70)°, respectively. These results indicated that POD8747 and AhpC5341 could exert surface oxidation ability in PE degradation, and could be used for PE degradation along with other enzymes in future.
