Abstract

One of organic wastes that are often produced by petrochemical industry is toluene, a naturally-slow-decomposed compound. The presence of toluene degrading gene can be useful to accelerate toluene degradation. In this study, we aims to clone the toluene gen from Pseudomonas putida isolated from waste. The toluene degrading, tol-like, gene was derived from P. putida genome cutting with Xbal, BamHI, EcoRI or Sacl. The fragments were then cloned on p UCP 18 into Escherichia coli Origami host cells. Selections of transformants were perfonned on luria-Bertani (LB) agar containing 100 ig/ml of ampicillin and then on Bushnell Haas Agar (BHA) containing toluene as the sole carbon source. There were 31 colonies of E. colitransformants grew on LB-amp plate. Selections on BHA-toluene showed that none of the transformants, E. coli bearing empty plasmid or P. putida could grow on 4, 8 40 or 400 ppm of toluene. It might be that the amounts of carbon are too low at these concentrations. At 1% of toluene, the E. coli bearing empty plasmid and 4 transformants were unable to grow, whilst P. putida grew well. Amongst the 27 transformants able to grow on 1% 8 HAtoluenel 12 transformants contained BamHI-restriction fragment and 9 others contained Xbal-restriction fragment.
