Isolation and Characterization of a Cyclohexane-Metabolizing Xanthobacter sp.
An unusual Xanthobacter sp., capable of independent growth on cyclohexane as the sole source of carbon and energy, has been isolated from soil by using classical enrichment techniques. The mean generation time for growth on cyclohexane was 6 h. The microorganism showed a limited ability to utilize hydrocarbons, with only alicyclic hydrocarbons closely related to cyclohexane supporting growth. U...
متن کاملCyclohexane-1,2-dione hydrolase from denitrifying Azoarcus sp. strain 22Lin, a novel member of the thiamine diphosphate enzyme family.
Alicyclic compounds with hydroxyl groups represent common structures in numerous natural compounds, such as terpenes and steroids. Their degradation by microorganisms in the absence of dioxygen may involve a C-C bond ring cleavage to form an aliphatic intermediate that can be further oxidized. The cyclohexane-1,2-dione hydrolase (CDH) (EC 3.7.1.11) from denitrifying Azoarcus sp. strain 22Lin, g...
متن کاملDibenzofuran 4,4a-dioxygenase from Sphingomonas sp. strain RW1: angular dioxygenation by a three-component enzyme system.
Sphingomonas sp. strain RW1 synthesized a constitutive enzyme system that oxygenated dibenzofuran (DBF) to 2,2',3-trihydroxybiphenyl (THB). We purified this dibenzofuran 4,4a-dioxygenase system (DBFDOS) and found it to consist of four components which catalyzed three activities. Two isofunctional, monomeric flavoproteins (components A1 and A2; M(r) of about 44,000) transferred electrons from NA...
متن کاملSetting Cyclohexane Stereochemistry with Oxidation
Thanks to its atomand step-economy, C–H bond oxidation represents a “hot topic” in synthetic chemistry. However, due to the ubiquity of such bonds in organic molecules, regioand enantioselective C–H bond oxidation turns out to be extremely challenging, and efficient direct methods are in high demand. Compared to the success of aliphatic sp C–H oxidation by enzymes (such as cytochrome P450, Figu...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a three-component salicylate 1-hydroxylase from Sphingomonas sp. strain CHY-1.
In the bacterial degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), salicylate hydroxylases catalyze essential reactions at the junction between the so-called upper and lower catabolic pathways. Unlike the salicylate 1-hydroxylase from pseudomonads, which is a well-characterized flavoprotein, the enzyme found in sphingomonads appears to be a three-component Fe-S protein complex, which so f...
