Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3 was isolated as a highly efficient microorganism for biodegradation and valorization of drilling fluids (DF) wastewater. The strain metabolised DF and oily mud exhibiting up to 93%, 86%, 85% and 88% of chemical oxygen demand (COD), n-dodecane, n-tetradecane and naphthalene removal efficiency respectively. Enhanced bioconversion was enabled through production of biosurfactants that reduced the surface tension of water by 53% and resulted in 43.3% emulsification index (E24), while synthesizing 24% of dry cell weight (DCW) as medium-chain-length polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). Expression from the main pathways for alkanes and naphthalene biodegradation as well as biosurfactants and PHA biosynthesis revealed that although the alkanes and naphthalene biodegradation routes were actively expressed even at stationary phase, PHA production was stimulated at late stationary phase and putisolvin could comprise the biosurfactant synthesized. The bioconversion of toxic petrochemical residues to added-value thermoelastomers and biosurfactants indicate the high industrial significance of P. citronellolis SJTE-3.

Synthetic estrogens are emerging environmental contaminants with great estrogenic activities and stable structures that are widespread in various ecological systems and significantly threaten the health of organisms. Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3 is reported to degrade the synthetic estrogen 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2) efficiently in laboratory conditions. In this work, the environmental adaptability, the EE2-degrading properties, and the ecological effects of P.

Tellurite is highly toxic to bacteria and commonly used in the clinical screening for pathogens; it is speculated that there is a potential relationship between tellurite resistance and bacterial pathogenicity. Until now, the core function genes of tellurite resistance and their characteristics are still obscure. SJTE-3 was found able to resist high concentrations of tellurite (250 μg/mL) and formed vacuole-like tellurium nanostructures.

Background: Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3 can efficiently degrade 17β-estradiol (E2) and other estrogenic chemicals. However, the enzyme responsible for E2 metabolism within strain SJTE-3 has remained unidentified.
Objective: Here, a novel 3-oxoacyl-(acyl-carrier protein) (ACP) reductase, HSD-X1 (WP_ 009617962.

Synthetic estrogens are the most hazardous and persistent environmental estrogenic contaminants, with few reports on their biodegradation. Pseudomonas citronellolis SJTE-3 degraded natural steroids efficiently and metabolized 17α-ethynylestradiol (EE2) with the addition of different easily used energy sources (glucose, peptone, ethanol, yeast extract, fulvic acid and ammonia). Over 92% of EE2 (1 mg/L) and 55% of EE2 (10 mg/L) in culture were removed in seven days with the addition of 0.
