Background | Mycobacteria belong to the order Actinomycetales that are Gram-positive, acid-fast, pleomorphic, non-motile rods characterized by distinctive cell surface mycolic acid derivatives. Members of the slow-growing group of Mycobacteria are notorious for causing human and animal diseases. Strain Spyr1 was isolated near Ioannina, Epirus, Greece from creosote polluted soil by an enrichment method using pyrene as the sole carbon and energy source. It is capable of degrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) such as pyrene, fluoranthene, fluorene, anthracene, and acenaphthene. PAHs are considered major environmental pollutants due to their toxicity, carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and recalcitrance. Thus this strain is interesting for its potential in bioremediation of PAH-contaminated soil (adapted from PMID 19096938). (EBI Integr8) |
