Article Synopsis
- Pseudomonas aeruginosa can break down petroleum hydrocarbon contaminants, but its effectiveness is greatly reduced under temperature stress.
- The study focused on how temperature affects the proteins involved in this biodegradation process by analyzing the proteome of P. aeruginosa P6 at three different temperatures (25°C, 37°C, and 43°C).
- Results indicated that lower (25°C) and higher (43°C) temperatures inhibited the expression of key proteins necessary for chemotaxis, oxidation of hydrocarbons, and nutrient transport, affecting the bacteria's ability to degrade petroleum effectively.
