Abstract
Catechol 1,2 dioxygenases (C12DOs) have been studied for its ability to cleavage the benzene ring of catechol, the main intermediate in the degradation of aromatic compounds derived from aerobic degradation of hydrocarbons. Here we report the genome sequence of the marine bacterium Pseudomonas stutzeri GOM2, isolated from the southwestern Gulf of Mexico, and the biochemical characterization of its C12DO (PsC12DO). The catA gene, encoding PsC12DO of 312 amino acid residues, was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. Many C12DOs have been described as dimeric enzymes including those present in Pseudomonas species. The purified PsC12DO enzyme was found as an active trimer, with a molecular mass of 107 kDa. Increasing NaCl concentration in the enzyme reaction gradually reduced activity; in high salt concentrations (0.7 M NaCl) quaternary structural analysis determined that the enzyme changes to a dimeric arrangement and causes a 51% decrease in specific activity on catechol substrate. In comparison with other C12DOs, our enzyme showed a broad range of action for PsC12DO in solutions with pH values ranging from neutral to alkaline (70%). The enzyme is still active after incubation at 50°C for 30 min and in low temperatures to long term storage after 6 weeks at 4°C (61%). EDTA or Ca2+ inhibitors cause no drastic changes on residual activity; nevertheless, the activity of the enzyme was affected by metal ions Fe3+, Zn2+ and was completely inhibited by Hg2+. Under optimal conditions the k cat and K m values were 16.13 s-1 and 13.2 μM, respectively. To our knowledge, this is the first report describing the characterization of a marine C12DOs from P. stutzeri isolated from the Gulf of Mexico that is active in a trimeric state. We consider that our enzyme has important features to be used in environments in presence of EDTA, metals and salinity conditions.

Abstract
Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O) was purified to electrophoretic homogeneity from Acinetobacter sp. DS002. The pure enzyme appears to be a homodimer with a molecular mass of 66 kDa. The apparent K(m) and V(max) for intradiol cleavage of catechol were 1.58 μM and 2 units per mg of protein respectively. Unlike other C12Os reported in the literature, the catechol 1,2-dioxygenase of Acinetobacter showed neither intradiol nor extradiol cleavage activity when substituted catechols were used as substrates. However, it has shown mild intradiol cleavage activity when benzenetriol was used as substrate. As determined by two dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) followed MALDI-TOF/TOF analyses and gel permeation chromatography, no isoforms of C12O was observed in Acinetobacter sp. DS002. Further, the C12O was seen only in cultures grown in benzoate and it was completely absent in succinate grown cultures. Based on the sequence information obtained from MS/MS data, degenerate primers were designed to amplify catA gene from the genomic DNA of Acinetobacter sp. DS002. The sequence of the PCR amplicon and deduced amino acid sequence showed 97% similarity with a catA gene of Acinetobacter baumannii AYE (YP_001713609).

Abstract
Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase was first studied by Hayaishi and colleagues in 1950. In 1967, catechol 1,2-dioxygenase from Pseudomonas arvilla C-1 (PaCTD) was chosen as a model system for the catecholic intradiol dioxygenases due to its activity, stability and expression level. Here we report the 2.65 A structure of the betabeta isozyme of PaCTD. The structure supports the hypothesis first made by Vetting and Ohlendorf [The 1.8A crystal structure of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase reveals a novel hydrophobic helical zipper as a subunit linker, Struct. Fold. Des. 8 (2000) 429-440.] that the catechol 1,2-dioxygenases are lipid binding proteins. The 5 amino-terminal helices involved in dimerization and forming the lipid binding site are shown to be plastic in their positions and orientations. The sequence differences between the alpha and beta polypeptides are located at the part of the monomers distant from dimerization surface and thus permit the formation of the 3 isozymes (alphaalpha, alphabeta, and betabeta) of PaCTD. The reported inactivation by sulfhydryl-modifying reagents is explained by the structure. The 10-residue Helix F (residues 203-212) is proposed to be central in communicating between the lipid binding site and the active site.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradiol dioxygenases catalyze the critical ring-cleavage step in the conversion of catecholate derivatives to citric acid cycle intermediates. Catechol 1,2-dioxygenases (1, 2-CTDs) have a rudimentary design structure - a homodimer with one catalytic non-heme ferric ion per monomer, that is (alphaFe(3+))(2). This is in contrast to the archetypical intradiol dioxygenase protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase (3,4-PCD), which forms more diverse oligomers, such as (alphabetaFe(3+))(2-12). RESULTS The crystal structure of 1,2-CTD from Acinetobacter sp. ADP1 (Ac 1,2-CTD) was solved by single isomorphous replacement and refined to 2.0 A resolution. The structures of the enzyme complexed with catechol and 4-methylcatechol were also determined at resolutions of 1.9 A and 1.8 A, respectively. While the characteristics of the iron ligands are similar, Ac 1,2-CTD differs from 3,4-PCDs in that only one subunit is used to fashion each active-site cavity. In addition, a novel 'helical zipper', consisting of five N-terminal helices from each subunit, forms the molecular dimer axis. Two phospholipids were unexpectedly found to bind within an 8 x 35 A hydrophobic tunnel along this axis. CONCLUSIONS The helical zipper domain of Ac 1, 2-CTD has no equivalent in other proteins of known structure. Sequence analysis suggests the domain is a common motif in all members of the 1,2-CTD family. Complexes with catechol and 4-methylcatechol are the highest resolution complex structures to date of an intradiol dioxygenase. Furthermore, they confirm several observations seen in 3,4-PCDs, including ligand displacement upon binding exogenous ligands. The structures presented here are the first of a new family of intradiol dioxygenases.

Abstract
Phenol monooxygenase (PMO) and catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O), the two first enzymes of the phenol-degradation pathways, are encoded by a 3.4-kb DNA fragment cloned from Pseudomonas sp. EST1001 plasmid DNA. We have previously shown that activation of the cloned genes in Pseudomonas putida PaW85 is controlled by insertion of the 17-kb transposon, Tn4652, from the host chromosome into the plasmid carrying these genes [Kivisaar et al. Plasmid 24 (1990) 25-36]. Transcription of the DNA encoding PMO (pheA) and C12O (pheB) is activated by a promoter located on a 0.2-kb SacI-ClaI fragment from Tn4652. We have determined the nucleotide sequence of pheB. The 906-bp gene encodes a protein product with a deduced Mr of 33,362. The relationship between the pheB gene and other C12O-encoding genes has been shown: comparison of the pheB sequence with sequences of catA of Alcaligenes calcoaceticus, tfdC of A. eutrophus and clcA of P. putida demonstrated that there are conserved residues in all the four protein products of these genes.

Abstract
Enzymatic systems employed by microorganisms for oxidative transformation of various organic molecules include laccases, ligninases, tyrosinases, monooxygenases, and dioxygenases. Reactions performed by these enzymes play a significant role in maintaining the global carbon cycle through either transformation or complete mineralization of organic molecules. Additionally, oxidative enzymes are instrumental in modification or degradation of the ever-increasing man-made chemicals constantly released into our environment. Due to their inherent stereo- and regioselectivity and high efficiency, oxidative enzymes have attracted attention as potential biocatalysts for various biotechnological processes. Successful commercial application of these enzymes will be possible through employing new methodologies, such as use of organic solvents in the reaction mixtures, immobilization of either the intact microorganisms or isolated enzyme preparations on various supports, and genetic engineering technology.

Abstract
Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (pyrocatechase) has been purified to homogeneity from Pseudomonas putida mt-2. Most properties of this enzyme, such as the absorption spectrum, iron content, pH stability, pH optimum, substrate specificity, Km values, and amino acid composition, were similar to those of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase obtained from Pseudomonas arvilla C-1 [Y. Kojima et al. (1967) J. Biol. Chem. 242, 3270-3278]. These two catechol 1,2-dioxygenases were also found, from the results of Ouchterlony double diffusion, to share several antigenic determinants. The molecular weight of the putida enzyme was estimated to be 66,000 and 64,000 by sedimentation equilibrium analysis and Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, respectively. The enzyme gave a single band on sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, corresponding to Mr 32,000. The NH2-terminal sequence, which started with threonine, was determined up to 30 residues by Edman degradation. During the degradation, a single amino acid was released at each step. The NH2-terminal sequence up to 20 residues was identical to that of the beta subunit of the arvilla enzyme, with one exception at step 16, at which arginine was observed instead of glutamine. The COOH-terminal residue was deduced to be arginine on carboxypeptidase A and B digestions and on hydrazinolysis. These results indicate that the putida enzyme consists of two identical subunits, in contrast to the arvilla enzyme which consists of two nonidentical subunits, alpha and beta [C. Nakai et al. (1979) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 195, 12-22], although these two enzymes have very similar properties.

Abstract
A 9.9-kilobase (kb) BamHI restriction endonuclease fragment encoding the catA and catBC gene clusters was selected from a gene bank of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1c chromosome. The catA, catB, and catC genes encode enzymes that catalyze consecutive reactions in the catechol branch of the beta-ketoadipate pathway: catA, catechol-1,2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11.1); catB, muconate lactonizing enzyme (EC 5.5.1.1); and catC, muconolactone isomerase (EC 5.3.3.4). A recombinant plasmid, pRO1783, which contains the 9.9-kb BamHI restriction fragment complemented P. aeruginosa mutants with lesions in the catA, catB, or catC gene; however, this fragment of chromosomal DNA did not contain any other catabolic genes which had been placed near the catA or catBC cluster based on cotransducibility of the loci. Restriction mapping, deletion subcloning, and complementation analysis showed that the order of the genes on the cloned chromosomal DNA fragment is catA, catB, catC. The catBC genes are tightly linked and are transcribed from a single promoter that is on the 5' side of the catB gene. The catA gene is approximately 3 kb from the catBC genes. The cloned P. aeruginosa catA, catB, and catC genes were expressed at basal levels in blocked mutants of Pseudomonas putida and did not exhibit an inducible response. These observations suggest positive regulation of the P. aeruginosa catA and catBC cluster, the absence of a positive regulatory element from pRO1783, and the inability of the P. putida regulatory gene product to induce expression of the P. aeruginosa catA, catB, and catC genes.

Abstract
2,3-Dihydroxybiphenyl dioxygenase, involved in biphenyl and polychlorinated biphenyl degradation, was purified from cell extracts of polychlorinated biphenyl-degrading Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1161 carrying the cloned bphC gene (encoding 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl dioxygenase). The purified enzyme contained ferrous iron as a prosthetic group. The specific activities decreased with the loss of ferrous iron from the enzyme, and the activity was restored by incubation with ferrous iron in the presence of cysteine. Addition of ferric iron caused the complete inactivation of the enzyme. The molecular weight was estimated to be 250,000. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a single band with a molecular weight of 31,000, indicating that the enzyme consists of eight identical subunits. The enzyme was specific only for 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl with a Km value of 87 microM. No significant activity was observed for 3,4-dihydroxybiphenyl, catechol, or 3-methyl- and 4-methylcatechol. The molecular weight, subunit structure, ferrous iron requirement, and NH2-terminal sequence (starting with serine up to 12 residues) were the same between the two enzymes obtained from KF707 and PAO1161 (bphC).

Abstract
Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.1.1), the product of the catA gene, catalyzes the first step in catechol utilization via the beta-ketoadipate pathway. Enzymes mediating subsequent steps in the pathway are encoded by the catBCDE genes which are carried on a 5-kilobase-pair (kbp) EcoRI restriction fragment isolated from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. This DNA was used as a probe to identify Escherichia coli colonies carrying recombinant pUC19 plasmids with overlapping sequences. Repetition of the procedure yielded an A. calcoaceticus 6.7-kbp EcoRI restriction fragment which contained the catA gene and bordered the original 5-kbp EcoRI restriction fragment. When the catA-containing fragment was placed under the control of the lac promoter on pUC19 and induced with isopropylthiogalactopyranoside, catechol dioxygenase was formed in E. coli at twice the level found in fully induced cultures of A. calcoaceticus. A. calcoaceticus strains with mutations in the catA gene were transformed to wild type by DNA from lysates of E. coli strains carrying the catA gene on recombinant plasmids. Thus, A. calcoaceticus strains with a mutated gene can be used in a transformation assay to identify E. coli clones in which at least part of the wild-type gene is present but not necessarily expressed.

Abstract
Cell extracts were prepared from Trichosporon cutaneum grown with phenol or p-cresol, and activities were assayed for enzymes catalyzing conversion of these two carbon sources into 3-ketoadipate (beta-ketoadipate) and 3-keto-4-methyladipate, respectively. When activities of each enzyme were expressed as a ratio, the rate for methyl-substituted substrate being divided by that for the unsubstituted substrate, it was apparent that p-cresol-grown cells elaborated pairs of enzymes for hydroxylation, dioxygenation, and delactonization. One enzyme of each pair was more active against its methyl-substituted substrate, and the other was more active against its unsubstituted substrate. Column chromatography was used to separate two hydroxylase activities and also 1,2-dioxygenase activities; the catechol 1,2-dioxygenases were further purified to electrophoretic homogeneity. Extracts of phenol-grown cells contained only those enzymes in this group that were more active against unsubstituted substrates. In contrast, whether cells were grown with phenol or p-cresol, only one muconate cycloisomerase (lactonizing enzyme) was elaborated which was more active against 3-methyl-cis,cis-muconate than against cis,cis-muconate; in this respect it differed from a cycloisomerase of another strain of T. cutaneum which has been characterized. The cycloisomerase was purified from both phenol-grown and p-cresol-grown cells, and some characteristics were determined.

Abstract
Salicylate hydroxylase (salicylate 1-monooxygenase, EC 1.14.13.1) was purified from the soil yeast Trichosporon cutaneum. The enzyme contained flavin adenine dinucleotide and was monomeric, with a molecular weight of 45,300. In addition to salicylate, the four isomeric dihydroxybenzoates having one hydroxyl adjacent to carboxyl in the benzene nucleus were oxidatively decarboxylated without formation of hydrogen peroxide. One of these isomers, gentisate, was rapidly oxidized to hydroxyquinol by the enzyme but did not serve as an effective single carbon source for T. cutaneum; however, when growing with salicylate, cells also readily utilized gentisate for growth. Hydroxyquinol 1,2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13.11....) is a newly investigated enzyme which was purified from T. cutaneum grown with 4-hydroxybenzoate. The enzyme was red, contained ferric iron, and was specific for hydroxyquinol; catechol and pyrogallol were oxidized at less than 1% of the rate for hydroxyquinol, and no activity could be detected against seven other catechols. The enzyme was composed of two nonidentical subunits having molecular weights of 39,600 and 38,200 and was apparently dimeric.

Abstract
Comparison of the amino acid compositions of purified proteins indicates the presence of overlapping evolutionary affinities among enzymes of the beta-ketoadipate pathway. Isofunctional enzymes from different bacterial genera share a common evolutionary origin. Moreover, enzymes that mediate isofunctional or chemically analogous reactions within an organism appear to be evolutionarily homologous. Most remarkably, closely similar amino acid compositions are found in enzymes that mediate the following consecutive metabolic steps: lactonization, decarboxylation, hydrolysis, and transfer of a thioester bond.
