Biological treatment is an efficient and economical process to remove thiamphenicol (TAP) residues from the environment. The discovery of TAP-degrading bacteria and the decryption of its biodegradation mechanism will be beneficial to enhance the biological removal of TAP. In this study, Sphingomonas sp. CL5.1 was found to be capable of catabolizing TAP as the sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source. This strain could degrade 93.9% of 25 mg/L TAP in 36 h, and remove about 11.9% of the total organic carbon of TAP. A novel metabolism pathway of TAP was constructed, and the enzymes involved in TAP metabolism in strain CL5.1 were predicted via proteomic and metabolic analysis. TAP was proposed to be transformed to O-TAP via oxidation of C₃-OH and DD-TAP via dehydration of C₃-OH and dehydrogenation of C₁-OH. A novel glucose-methanol-choline (GMC) family oxidoreductase CapO was predicted to be involved in the oxidation of C₃-OH. O-TAP was supposed to be further cleaved into DCA, glycine, and PMB. Glycine might be a pivotal direct nitrogen source for strain CL5.1, and it could be involved in nitrogen metabolism through the glycine cleavage system or directly participate in the biosynthetic processes.
