A novel gene ST2026 encoding a putative carboxylesterase from the thermophilic crenarchaeota Sulfolobus tokodaii (named EstSt7) was cloned and functionally overexpressed in Escherichia coli. The recombinant enzyme was purified to homogeneity after heat treatment, Ni-NTA affinity and Superdex-200 gel filtration chromatography. EstSt7 showed maximum activity at 80 C over 30 min and had a half-life of 180 min at 90 C. Its enzymatic activity was stable in the pH range of 8.0-10.0 with an optimum at 9.0. The enzyme exhibited significant esterase activity toward various p-nitrophenyl esters and the most preferable substrate was p-nitrophenyl butyrate (kcat/Km of 246.3 s-1 mM-1). In addition, EstSt7 showed high activity and stability against organic solvents (20% and 50% v/v) and detergents (1% and 5% v/v). Furthermore, EstSt7 could efficiently hydrolyze a wide range of synthetic pyrethroids including fenpropathrin, permethrin, cypermethrin, cyhalothrin, deltamethrin and bifenthrin, which makes it a potential candidate for the detoxification of pyrethroids for the purpose of biodegradation. Sequence alignment, phylogenetic analysis and comparison of the conserved motif reveal that this novel carboxylesterase EstSt7 should be grouped into a new bacterial lipase and esterase family.

2,2,5,5-Tetramethylcyclohexane-1,3-dione is a valuable starting-material precursor of cis-chrysanthemic acid. The (1S)-stereoisomer is a precursor of pyrethrin I, the most active natural insecticide from Chrysanthemum cinerariifolium, whereas the (1R)-stereoisomer is efficiently transformed to deltamethrin, the most active commercially available pyrethroid insecticide. Several intermediates have been identified and used with variable success for that purpose.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a fundamental role in neuronal synaptic plasticity. A decrease of plasticity in the brain may be related to the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative or psychiatric disorders. Pyrethroid insecticides, which affect sodium channels in neurons, are widely used to control insect pests in agriculture and in the home. We previously found that deltamethrin (DM), a type II pyrethroid, increased Bdnf mRNA expression in cultured rat cortical neurons. However, the cyano group at the α-position of type II pyrethroids is likely susceptible to hydrolytic degradation and, its degraded product, hydrogen cyanide, could generate a cellular toxicity in the human body. To determine if the cyano group is required for the Bdnf exon IV-IX (Bdnf eIV-IX) mRNA expression induced by type II pyrethroids, for this study we synthesized a series of derivatives, in which the cyano group at the α-position was replaced with an ethynyl group. Then we added various substituents at the terminal position of the ethynyl group, and biologically evaluated the effects of these derivatives on Bdnf eIV-IX mRNA expression. These ethynyl derivatives induced the Bdnf eIV-IX mRNA expression in a concentration-dependent manner, at varying levels but lower levels than that evoked by DM. The mechanisms for the Bdnf induction and the morphological changes of neurons were the same whether the cyano or ethynyl group was included in the compounds.

The gene encoding pyrethroid-hydrolyzing esterase (EstP) from Klebsiella sp. strain ZD112 was cloned into Escherichia coli and sequenced. A sequence analysis of the DNA responsible for the esfP gene revealed an open reading frame of 1914 bp encoding for a protein of 637 amino acid residues. No similarities were found by a database homology search using the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of the esterases and lipases. EstP was heterologously expressed in E. coli and purified. The molecular mass of the native enzyme was approximately 73 kDa as determined by gel filtration. The results of sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and the deduced amino acid sequence of EstP indicated molecular masses of 73 and 73.5 kDa, respectively, suggesting that EstP is a monomer. The purified EstP not only degraded many pyrethroid pesticides and the organophosphorus insecticide malathion, but also hydrolyzed ρ-nitrophenyl esters of various fatty acids, indicating that EstP is an esterase with broad substrates. The Km for trans- and cis-permethrin and kcat/Km values indicate that EstP hydrolyzes both these substrates with higher efficiency than the carboxylesterases from resistant insects and mammals. The catalytic activity of EstP was strongly inhibited by Hg2+, Ag+, and ρ-chloromercuribenzoate, whereas a less pronounced effect (3-8% inhibition) was observed in the presence of divalent cations, the chelating agent EDTA, and phenanthroline.

The pyrethroid pesticides residues on foods and environmental contamination are a public safety concern. Pretreatment with pyrethroid hydrolase has the potential to alleviate the conditions. For this purpose, a fungus capable of using pyrethroid pesticides as a sole carbon source was isolated from the soil and characterized as Aspergillus niger ZD11. A novel pyrethroid hydrolase from cell extract was purified 41.5-fold to apparent homogeneity with 12.6% overall recovery. It is a monomeric structure with a molecular mass of 56 kDa, a pl of 5.4, and the enzyme activity was optimal at 45°C and pH 6.5. The activities were strongly inhibited by Hg2+, Ag+, and p-chloromercuribenzoate, whereas less pronounced effects (5-10% inhibition) were observed in the presence of the remaining divalent cations, the chelating agent EDTA and phenanthroline. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed various insecticides with similar carboxylester. trans-Permethrin is the preferred substrate.
