Indole is an inter-species and inter-kingdom signaling molecule widespread in the natural world. A large amount of indole in livestock wastes makes it difficult to be degraded, which causes serious malodor. Identifying efficient and eco-friendly ways to eliminate it is an urgent task for the sustainable development of husbandry. While bioconversion is a widely accepted means, the mechanism of indole microbial degradation is little understood, especially under anaerobic conditions. Herein, a new Enterococcus hirae isolate GDIAS-5, effectively degraded 100 mg/L indole within 28 h aerobically or 5 days anaerobically. Three intermediates (oxindole, isatin, and catechol) were identified in indole degradation, and catechol was further degraded by a meta-cleavage catabolic pathway. Two important processes for GDIAS-5 indole utilization were discovered. One is Fe(III) uptake and reduction, which may be a critical process that is coupled with indole oxidation, and the other is the entire pathway directly involved in indole oxidation and metabolism. Furthermore, monooxygenase ycnE responsible for indole oxidation via the indole-oxindole-isatin pathway was identified for the first time. Bioinformatic analyses showed that ycnE from E. hirae formed a phylogenetically separate branch from monooxygenases of other species. These findings provide new targets and strategies for synthetic biological reconstruction of indole-degrading bacteria.
