dc.description.abstract | Bacterial physiological responses to toluene exposure were investigated in five reference pseudomonad strains that express different toluene degradation pathways: Pseudomonas putida mt-2, Pseudomonas putida F1, Burkholderia cepacia G4, Burkholderia pickettii PKO1, and Pseudomonas mendocina KR1. The intact phospholipids of these archetypes, grown with and without toluene, were characterized using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization/mass spectrometry. All strains showed significant changes in phospholipid content and composition as an adaptive response to toluene exposure, as well as considerable diversity in response mechanisms. For example, the phospholipid content of toluene-grown PKO1, F1, and KR1 were 10.9–34.7% of that found in succinate-grown strains, while the phospholipid content of mt-2 and G4 increased by 56% and 94%, respectively, when grown on toluene. In addition, PKO1, F1, and mt-2 responded to the presence of toluene by synthesizing more phosphatidylglycerol, whereas G4 and KR1 synthesized phospholipids with polyunsaturated fatty acids (C18:2) on one or both of the sn -2 positions. These changes in phospholipid composition and concentration probably reflect the sensitivity and degree of tolerance of these strains to toluene, and suggest that different mechanisms are utilized by dissimilar bacteria to maintain optimal lipid ordering in the presence of such environmental pollutants. | en_US |
