Insights into environmental bioremediation by microorganisms through functional genomics and proteomics

Proteomics
Bing Zhao, Chit Laa Poh

Abstract

Environmental pollutants in the soil are a major concern worldwide. Bioremediation mediated by microorganisms is a highly promising technology that is environmentally friendly, safe, and effective. However, incomplete biological information regarding the cellular responses in many microbial communities restricts progress in the site-specific mineralization process. The application of proteomics in environmental bioremediation research provides a global view of the protein compositions of the microbial cells and offers a promising approach to address the molecular mechanisms of bioremediation. With the combination of proteomics, functional genomics provide an insight into global metabolic and regulatory networks that can enhance the understanding of gene functions. This article deals with the applications of functional genomics and proteomics to dissect the cellular responses to environmental stimuli, such as stress response, induction and expressions of regulatory proteins/enzymes in response to aromatic hydrocarbons and heavy metals. An understanding of the growth conditions governing the expression of the proteome (for example, enzymes and regulatory proteins of aromatic hydrocarbon degradation, energy generation pathways, tr...Continue Reading
