2,2′,4,4′-tetrabrominated diphenyl ether (BDE-47) is one of the most widely distributed PBDEs. BDE-47 is also the most abundant in organisms and the most toxic to humans and animals. Herein, we have studied the pathway of BDE-47 degradation and gene involvement in Acinetobacter pittii GB-2. This degradation is dominated by hydroxylation, resulting in hydroxylated products 6-OH-BDE-47, 5-OH-BDE-47 and 2′-OH-BDE-28, and bromophenol products 2,4-DBP and 4-BP. Transcriptome sequencing results showed 359 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) induced by BDE-47, of which 159 were up-regulated and 200 were down-regulated. The up-regulated ones were mainly related to substance transport, degradation and cell stress. From these results, we suggest that 1,2-dioxygenase, phenol hydroxylase and monooxygenase are involved in BDE-47 degradation. The function of AntA gene was identified by constructing a prokaryotic expression vector. Our study contributes to understanding how the metabolism of strain GB-2 changes under BDE-47 stress conditions, and sheds light on the mechanism of BDE-47 degradation.
