HMG1 was found to have strong malachite green（MG） degradation activity. The MG tolerance and decolorizing activities of strain HMG1 were confirmed by bacterial growth and high-performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） analyses. Strain HMG1 was capable of removing 98.8% of the MG in cultures within 12 h and was able to grow vigorously at 20 mg/L MG. A peroxidase gene detected in the genome of strain HMG1 was found to be involved in the MG biodegradation process. The corresponding recombinant peroxidase（r POD） demonstrated high degradative activity at 1 000 mg/L MG. Based on the common candidate intermediates, strain HMG1 was inferred to have one primary MG degradation pathway containing r POD. In addition, five other candidate intermediates of the r POD-MG degradative process were detected. The optimal conditions for MG degradation were determined and showed that strain HMG1 and the r POD enzyme could maintain high bioactivity at a low temperature（20℃）, variable p H values（6.0–9.0）, higher salinities（100 mmol/L） and other factors, such as multiple metal ions, H2O2 and EDTA.MG-tolerant strain Tenacibaculum sp. HMG1 and its peroxidase have prospective applications as environmental amendments for MG degradation during coastal remediation.展开更多
