Abstract
-
A total of 28 strains of 19 Penicillium species were isolated in
a survey of extracellular enzyme-producing fungi from macroalgae
along the coast of Jeju Island of Korea. Penicillium
species were identified based on morphological and β-tubulin
sequence analyses. In addition, the halo-tolerance and enzyme
activity of all strains were evaluated. The diversity of
Penicillium strains isolated from brown algae was higher than
the diversity of strains isolated from green and red algae.
The commonly isolated species were Penicillium antarcticum,
P. bialowiezense, P. brevicompactum, P. crustosum, P. oxalicum,
P. rubens, P. sumatrense, and P. terrigenum. While many
strains showed endoglucanase, β-glucosidase, and protease
activity, no alginase activity was detected. There was a positive
correlation between halo-tolerance and endoglucanase
activity within Penicillium species. Among 19 Penicillium
species, three species–P. kongii, P. olsonii, and P. viticola–
have not been previously recorded in Korea.

Abstract
-
Several strains of Penicillium section Citrina were isolated
during a survey of fungi from marine environments along
the southern coast of Korea. Based on multigene phylogenetic
analyses (?tubulin and calmodulin) and morphological
characteristics, the 11 strains were identified as P. citrinum,
P. hetheringtonii, P. paxilli, P. sumatrense, P. terrigenum, and
P. westlingii. To understand the ecological role of these species,
we tested all strains for extracellular enzyme activity;
six strains representing four species showed ?glucosidase
activity. Four of the identified species ?P. hetheringtonii, P.
paxilli, P. terrigenum, and P. westlingii ?are new records
for Korea. For these new species records, we describe morphological
characteristics of the strains and compare results
to published data of type strains.

Abstract
-
Pseudomonas sp. strain S-47 can grow on 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA) and transform 4CBA to 4-chlorocatechol (4CC) under aerobic conditions, which is subsequently degraded to produce 2-hydroxypent-2, 4-dienoate (2H-2,4DA). The upper steps for conversion of 4CBA to 4CC are recognized to be conducted by the benzoate-1,2-dioxygenase (B12O) system encoded by benABC and benD. The ensving meta-cleabage reaction of 4CC is catalyzed by catechol 2,3-dioxygenase(C23O) encoded by the xylE gene. The benABCD and the xylE genes were cloned from the chromosome of Pseudomonas sP. S-47 into pCS1(48.7kb), pCS101(24.4kb), pCS201(17.7kb), and pCS202(6.7kb) recombinant plasmids, and were well ecpressed in E. coli XL1-Blue host cells. The PstI-insert (4.0kb) of pC202 was found to contain the benABCD and cylE genes and to have 2 EcoRV, 1 SphI, and 3 SacII restriction sites.
