Alkali lignin-degrading Bacillus were isolated from forest soils in China and were identified as Bacillus subtilis TR-03 and Bacillus cereus TR-25 by 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Wherein TR-03 displayed optimal 26.72% alkali lignin (2 g/L) degradation at 7 days and 71.23% of Azure-B (0.01%) decolorization at 36 h of cultivation at 37°C. Ligninolytic enzyme analysis revealed that TR-03 was capable of depolymerizing alkali lignin effectively by the producing of lignin peroxidase and laccase, wherein higher laccase activity was cell-associated. At last, the physical and chemical changes of lignin via SEM and FTIR analysis was further observed to prove the lignin degradation by Bacillus subtilis TR-03.

Bacterial strains exhibiting laccase activity were isolated from the forest soil. A strain LC02 with syringaldazine oxidation ability was obtained using enrichment medium supplemented with copper ions. The isolated strain was identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens using physiological and biochemical tests as well as 16S rDNA sequence analysis. The characterization of spore laccase activity was investigated. The result showed that the optimum pH and temperature of the enzyme was 6.6 and 70°C, respectively. A great thermostability was observed for the spore laccase at 70°C. Laccase activity was strongly inhibited by 0.1 mmol/L NaN3, dithiothreitol and cysteine.

Yopi, Djohan AC, Rahmani N, Jannah AM. 2017. Isolation and characterization of mannanase, xylanase, and cellulase from marine bacteria Bacillus sp. Biofarmasi (Rumphius J Nat Prod Biochem) 15: 15-20. Isolation, identification, and characterization of mannanase, xylanase and cellulase producing indigenous marine bacteria have been conducted from total 20 isolates. Based on 16S rDNA sequence analysis, three potential isolates are obtained and identified as Bacillus subtilis (M8), Bacillus tequilensis (X4) and Bacillus cereus (C9). The potential strains M8, X4 and C9 can produce mannanase, xylanase and cellulase activities such as 9.5 U/mL; 0.36U/mL;0.56U/mL with optimum pH and temperature 6.0;50oC, 5.5;70oC and 8;50oC, respectively. Based on the TLC analysis, mannanase from M8 and xylanase from X4 has potential to hydrolyzed mannan and xylan for producing oligosaccharides with size around tri-hexasaccharides as a main product.

<span>Pollution of water environment with heavy metals is becoming one of the most severe environmental and human health hazards.
