Resumo
A introdução de moléculas xenobióticas no ambiente muitas vezes ocorre sem que sejam conhecidos muitos de seus aspectos bioquímicos e toxicológicos fundamentais. A presença anéis aromáticos na estrutura molecular muitas vezes é o fator determinante da toxicidade, recalcitrância e propriedades mutagênicas associadas e muitos destes compostos. O papel dos insumos agrícolas neste processo é de particular relevância, devido ao seu caráter de liberação intencional no ambiente e dos crescentes volumes aplicados em todo o mundo. Neste trabalho, foram selecionadas linhagens de basidiomicetos com base na sua tolerância aos herbicidas atrazina e diurom, para estudo detalhado do potencial de degradação e do papel desempenhado pelas enzimas ligninolíticas no processo. A tolerância não se mostrou relacionada à degradação dos xenobióticos; esta foi muito eficiente para algumas linhagens estudadas, chegando a 38% da atrazina e 96% do diurom, por MCA 17 agaricales e SXS 320 P. cubensis, respectivamente, após 20 dias de cultivo. As linhagens mais tolerantes à atrazina, Pluteus cubensis SXS 320 e Polyporus tenuiculus MCA 11, e ao diurom, Pycnoporus sanguineus MCA 16 e Dacryopinax elegans SXS 323, foram empregadas em ensaios mais detalhados para a degradação e produção de enzimas. Os efeitos de diferentes concentrações do diurom e da atrazina como única fonte de carbono ou em presença de fontes alternativas como glicose ou bagaço de cana (1%), foram determinados para os microrganismos tolerantes. Apenas Pycnoporus sanguineus MCA 16 e Polyporus tenuiculus MCA 11 produziram lacases, única enzima do sistema ligninolítico detectada nas culturas. No caso de Pycnoporus sanguineus, as lacases foram constitutivamente produzidas em meio contendo glicose, atingindo 283 U.l-1. A lacase de P. tenuiculus, por sua vez, foi produzida apenas em presença de constituintes...
The introduction of xenobiotic molecules in the environment often occurs without the knowledge about many basic aspects related to biochemistry and toxicology. The aromatic ring presence in their molecular structure many times is the determinant feature for toxicity, recalcitrance and mutagenic properties associated with those compounds. The role of agricultural chemicals in this process has particular relevance, due to their intentional release on environment and the crescent volumes employed worldwide. In this work, basidiomycete strains were chosen based on their tolerance to herbicides atrazine and diuron, for detailed study of the fungi’s degradative potential and the role developed by ligninolytic enzymes in this process. The tolerance was not related to xenobiotic’s degradation, which was very efficient for many strains, reaching 38% for atrazine and 96% for diuron, by MCA 17 Agaricales and SXS 320 Pluteus cubensis, respectively, after 20 days in culture. Those ones more tolerant to atrazine, Pluteus cubensis SXS 320 and Polyporus tenuiculus MCA 11, and for diuron, Pycnoporus sanguineus MCA 16 and Dacryopinax elegans SXS 323, were employed in assays focusing on degradation and enzyme production. The effect of different concentrations of diuron and atrazine as sole carbon source or in presence of alternative sources, like glucose and sugarcane bagasse (1%), were determined for tolerant microorganisms. Only Pycnoporus sanguineus MCA 16 and Polyporus tenuiculus MCA 11 have produced laccases, the unique enzyme of ligninolytic system detected in cultures. For Pycnoporus sanguineus, the laccases were constitutively produced in medium containing glucose, reaching 238 U.l-1. The laccase from P. tenuiculus was released only with the presence of lignocellulosic constituents in culture medium, resulting in 1,219 U.l-1 in medium containing wheat bran. The biochemical properties... (Complete abstract click electronic access below)
