Bacillus sp. strain

On the other hand, 3-phenylpropionitrile was synthesized from Z-3-phenyl-propionaldoxime (0.75 M) in a quantitative yield (98gP ) by the use of cells of E. coli JM 109/pOxD-9OF, a transformant harboring a gene for a new enzyme, phenylacetaldoxime dehydratase, from Bacillus sp. strain OxB-1. Other arylalkyl- and alkyl-nitriles were also synthesized in high yields from the corresponding aldoximes. Moreover, 3-phenylpropionitrile was successfully synthesized by the recombinant cells in 70 and 100% yields from 0.1 M unpurified P/Z-3-phenylpropionaldoxime, which is spontaneously formed from 3-phenylpropionaldehyde and hydroxylamine in a butyl acetate/water biphasic system and aqueous phase, respectively. 

There are two pathways for the degradation of nitriles (a) direct formation of carboxylic acids by the activity of a nitrilase, for example, in Bacillus sp. strain OxB-1 and P. syringae B728a (b) hydration to amides followed by hydrolysis, for example, in P. chlororaphis (Oinuma et al. 2003). The monomer acrylonitrile occurs in wastewater from the production of polyacrylonitrile (PAN), and is hydrolyzed by bacteria to acrylate by the combined activity of a nitrilase (hydratase) and an amidase. Acrylate is then degraded by hydration to either lactate or P-hydroxypropionate. The nitrilase or amidase is also capable of hydrolyzing the nitrile group in a number of other nitriles (Robertson et al. 2004) including PAN (Tauber et al. 2000).

The discovery of a Bacillus sp. strain capable of degrading aldoximes via their conversion to nitriles prompted the isolation and purification of an enzyme capable of producing the syn geometrical isomer of phenylacetaldoxime from A-hydroxy-L-phenylalanine, suggesting that amino acid-derived aldoximes are biosynthesized and metabolized in microorganisms like in plants ".

Several members of the domain Bacteria have a capacity to form Mn(IV) oxides by oxidizing Mn(II), which some deposit on their cells, sheaths or appendages, or in the case of marine Bacillus sp. strain SG-1 on the surface of the spores this organism forms (see Ehrlich, 1999). In most cases the mineral type of the manganese oxide formed has not been well characterized. In the case of the free spores of Bacillus sp. strain SG-1, the nature of the mineral formed varies depending on culture conditions, such as Mn(II) concentration, ionic strength and temperature, under which the mineral was formed, and on mineral aging (Mandernack et al., 1995). The initial product of the Mn(II) oxidation by the spores is poorly crystallized.
