Optimization of haloacid dehalogenase production by recombinant E. coli BL21 (DE3)/pET-hakp1 containing haloacid dehalogenase gene from Klebsiella pneumoniae ITB1 using Response Surface Methodology (RSM).

ABSTRACT: Organohalogens, including monochloroacetic acid (MCA), are abundantly synthesized compounds for various industrial purposes. MCA is widely used as a raw material or as an intermediate compound for the production of pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, plastics, surfactants, shampoos, liquid soaps, and emulsion agents. Nonetheless, widespread and large-scale utilization of organohalogens might negatively impact life quality as these compounds are toxic to organisms and persistently present in the environment. An effort to decrease the effect of MCA pollutant is by performing bioremediation, taking advantage of microorganisms that produce haloacid dehalogenases, a class of enzymes that catalyze the breakage of carbon halogen bonds. In this sense, we have isolated Klebsiella pneumoniae
