Alcaligenes eutrophus JMP134 "2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetate monooxygenase" is an alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase.
The Alcaligenes eutrophus JMP134 tfdA gene, encoding the enzyme responsible for the first step in 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) biodegradation, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli, and several enzymatic properties of the partially purified gene product were examined. Although the tfdA-encoded enzyme is typically referred to as 2,4-D monooxygenase, we were unable to observe any reduct...
متن کاملThe Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 hoxX gene participates in hydrogenase regulation.
Nucleotide sequence analysis revealed a 1,791-bp open reading frame in the hox gene cluster of the gram-negative chemolithotroph Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. In order to investigate the biological role of this open reading frame, we generated an in-frame deletion allele via a gene replacement strategy. The resulting mutant grew significantly more slowly than the wild type under lithoautotrophic c...
متن کاملAnalysis of a 24-kilodalton protein associated with the polyhydroxyalkanoic acid granules in Alcaligenes eutrophus.
A 5.0-kbp genomic EcoRI restriction fragment which complemented a third subclass of polyhydroxyalkanoic acid (PHA)-leaky mutants of A. eutrophus that accumulated PHA at a lower rate than the wild type was cloned from Alcaligenes eutrophus H16. A 687-bp phaPAe gene on this fragment encoded a 24-kDa protein (M(r) = 23,963), which was referred to as the GA24 protein. The GA24 protein was solubiliz...
متن کاملThe tfdR gene product can successfully take over the role of the insertion element-inactivated TfdT protein as a transcriptional activator of the tfdCDEF gene cluster, which encodes chlorocatechol degradation in Ralstonia eutropha JMP134(pJP4)
The tfdT gene is located upstream of and transcribed divergently from the tfdCDEF chlorocatechol-degradative operon on plasmid pJP4 of Ralstonia eutropha (formerly Alcaligenes eutrophus) JMP134. It is 684 bp long and encodes a 25-kDa protein. On the basis of its predicted amino acid sequence, the TfdT protein could be classified as a LysR-type transcriptional regulator. It has the highest degre...
متن کاملCloning of the Alcaligenes eutrophus alcohol dehydrogenase gene.
Mutants of Alcaligenes eutrophus which are altered with respect to the utilization of 2,3-butanediol and acetoin were isolated after transposon mutagenesis. The suicide vehicle pSUP5011 was used to introduce the drug resistance transposable element Tn5 into A. eutrophus. Kanamycin-resistant transconjugants of the 2,3-butanediol-utilizing parent strains CF10141 and AS141 were screened for mutant...
