本文综述了天然橡胶和合成橡胶的微生物降解研究的历史和最新成果。主要的科学焦点是来自革兰氏阳性链霉菌K30菌株的关键酶胶乳清除蛋白（LCP）和来自革兰氏阴性黄单胞菌35Y菌株的橡胶加氧酶A（RoxA），该菌株是迄今为止唯一已知的不属于放线菌的橡胶降解细菌。我们还强调了工业和环境生物技术中生物降解知识对废弃天然橡胶处理的重要性。
ABSTRACT This review intends to provide an overview of historical and recent achievements in studies of microbial degradation of natural and synthetic rubber. The main scientific focus is on the key enzymes latex-clearing protein (Lcp) from the Gram-positive Streptomyces sp. strain K30 and rubber oxygenase A (RoxA) from the Gram-negative Xanthomonas sp. strain 35Y, which has been hitherto the only known rubber-degrading bacterium that does not belong to the actinomycetes. We also emphasize the importance of knowledge of biodegradation in industrial and environmental biotechnology for waste natural rubber disposal.
