Oil pollution is among the most serious causes of environmental contamination, and greatly affects ecosystems, businesses and communities 3. Solutions are for example required to battle the continuous oil pollution originating from the oil sands tailing waters in Alberta, Canada. During the process of oil extraction from oil sands, bitumen, a semi-solid oxidized form of oil, is removed using thermal recovery techniques that consume about 3.1 barrels of water per single barrel of oil 1. Oil contaminated process water, mainly originating from a local river, is stored in tailing ponds after bitumen extraction. A more effective recycling of process water in order to reduce the need for freshwater uptake is needed. To facilitate the bitumen extraction and to ensure that downstream sites meet water quality guidelines for the protection of aquatic ecosystems, process water treatments are rapidly evolving 3.
To treat pollution of organic compounds, bioremediation technologies employing microorganisms are presently encouraged 1. Alkanes are the most abundant family of hydrocarbons in crude oil, containing 5 to 40 carbon atoms per molecule 7, 21. Many bacteria are known to degrade alkanes of various lengths via sequential oxidation of the terminal methyl group forming first alcohols, then aldehydes and finally fatty acids 8. Within this iGEM project several enzymes from different organisms were expressed and characterized, and made available via the BioBrick standard and Registry of Standard Biological Parts.
The well-studied alkane hydroxylase system of Gordonia sp. TF6 facilitates the initial oxidation step of C5-C13 alkanes along with that of C5-C8 cycloalkanes using a minimum of four components: alkB2 (alkane 1-monooxygenase), rubA3, rubA4 (two rubredoxins) and RubB (rubredoxin reductase) 8, 21. Oxidation of long-chain alkanes (ranging from C15 up to C36) is reported to be performed by ladA, a flavoprotein alkane monooxygenase from Geobacillus thermodinitrificans NG-80-2 7, 15, 18, 22. LadA forms a catalytic complex with flavin mononucleotide (FMN) that utilizes atomic oxygen for oxidation. This results in the conversion of alkanes into the corresponding primary alkanol. The alcohols are further oxidized by alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenases to fatty acids, which readily enter the &beta;-oxidation pathway 7, 21. A zinc-independent alcohol dehydrogenase from the thermophillic bacterium Geobacillus thermoleovorans B23 oxidizes medium-chain alkanols into their respective alkanals, using NAD+ as a cofactor 10. Aldehyde dehydrogenase from the same bacterium is able to catalyze the NAD+-dependent final step in the medium-chain oxidation 11.
In order to reduce induction costs and to maintain optimal proliferation of the bacterial system, the promoter pCaiF from E.coli was characterized. This promoter can regulate expression of the hydrocarbon degradation pathway components, and is regulated by cAMP-Crp levels, which in turn depend on glucose levels 6. At high extracellular glucose concentrations in the environment the cellular cAMP (cyclic Adenosine Mononucleotide Phosphate) level was low through the inhibition of adenylyl cyclase as a side effect of PTS mediated glucose transport. Conversely, during limitation (low glucose concentrations) the cAMP level increased and Crp bound to cAMP forming the complex, cAMP-Crp, which bound pCaiF and activated transcription of the downstream components 6, 14.
Wildtype E. coli can only tolerate moderate concentrations of hydrocarbons. To complete the toolkit, tolerance to hydrocarbons had to be addressed. Several organic solvent-tolerant bacteria are known to survive in water-solvent two-phase systems 12. Molecular components known to increase tolerance are chaperones that facilitate the correct folding of proteins. The prefoldin system from Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3, consisting of the proteins phPFD&alpha; and phPFD&beta;, was shown to increase hydrocarbon-tolerance 17.
The alkane conversion toolkit was constructed following the BioBrick principle, which is documented at the Registry of Standard Biological Parts 9. BioBricks are plasmids containing a specific functional insert that is flanked by 4 predefined restriction sites. The BioBrick inserts can be extended flexibly, allowing the construction of biological systems with new functions.
