- Abstract
- Background: Acid Blue 113 (AB113) is a typical azo dye, and the resulting wastewater is toxic and difficult to remove. Methods: The experimental culture was set up for the biodegradation of the azo dye AB113, and the cell growth and dye decolorization were monitored. Transcriptome sequencing was performed in the presence and absence of AB113 treatment. The key pathways and enzymes involved in AB113 degradation were found through pathway analysis and enrichment software (GO, EggNog and KEGG). Results: S. melonis B‐2 achieved more than 80% decolorization within 24 h (50 and 100 mg/L dye). There was a positive relationship between cell growth and the azo dye degradation rate. The expression level of enzymes involved in benzoate and naphthalene degradation pathways (NADH quinone oxidoreductase, N‐acetyltransferase and aromatic ring‐hy-droxylating dioxygenase) increased significantly after the treatment of AB113. Conclusions: Benzo-ate and naphthalene degradation pathways were the key pathways for AB113 degradation. NADH quinone oxidoreductase, N‐acetyltransferase, aromatic ring‐hydroxylating dioxygenase and CYP450 were the key enzymes for AB113 degradation. This study provides evidence for the process of AB113 biodegradation at the molecular and biochemical level that will be useful in monitoring the dye wastewater treatment process at the full‐scale treatment. © 2022 by the authors.
