Identification of putative Cof-like hydrolase associated with dehalogenase in Enterobacter cloacae MN1 isolated from the contaminated sea-side area of the Philippines
Aims: The present study aimed at molecular identification of putative Cof-like hydrolase associated with dehalogenase gene from a bacterium that was isolated from a contaminated sea-side area in the Philippines. The bacterium was subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis for identity of the genus...

Aims: The present study aimed at molecular identification of putative Cof-like hydrolase associated with dehalogenase gene from a bacterium that was isolated from a contaminated sea-side area in the Philippines. The bacterium was subjected to 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis for identity of the genus and species. Methodology and results: Based on basic microbiological analysis and 16S rRNA sequence determination, strain MN1 showed high sequence identity to Enterobacter cloacae. This is the first reported study that Enterobacter could degrade 2,2-dichloropropionate (2,2-DCP). A putative dehalogenase gene like was identified by direct sequencing and analysis of the PCR-amplified genomic DNA of the bacterium. A comparative analysis of the sequence data revealed that the amino acid sequence is closely related to several Cof-like hydrolase associated with L-specific dehalogenases. Conclusion, significance and impact of study: Current study may suggest that the hydrolase may have similar function to dehalogenase.
