Antimicrobial peptide antibiotics inhibit aerobic denitrification via affecting electron transportation and remolding carbon metabolism

Na Wang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of polymyxin B (PMB) on aerobic denitrification performance. The results showed that PMB decreased nitrate removal efficiency and drove denitrifiers to transform more nitrate to biomass instead of producing gas-N. PMB also damaged bacterial membrane and suppressed key enzymes participating in denitrification and aerobic respiratory chains. In addition, denitrifiers exhibited different preferences for carbon sources in the presence of PMB.

Ionic copper strengthens the toxicity of tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) to denitrification by decreasing substrate transport and electron transfer

Rui Wan et al.

Summary: This study investigated the combined effect of TBBPA and Cu on model denitrifying bacteria, finding that Cu intensified the toxicity of TBBPA to denitrification by stimulating EPS secretion, blocking glucose transport, suppressing key enzyme activity, and down-regulating gene expression related to electron transport. These effects led to decreased bacterial growth, insufficient electron donor, and lower electron transport activity, causing a synergistic toxic effect of TBBPA and Cu on denitrification. Overall, this study provides new insights into the combined impact of BFRs and HMs on microorganisms.
