Abstract
Little is currently known about the metabolism of the industrial pollutant 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), particularly among gram-negative bacteria. In this study, we identified two non-contiguous genetic loci spanning 22 kb of Paraburkholderia (formerly Burkholderia) sp. strain KU-46. Additionally, we characterized four key initial genes (dnpA, dnpB, and dnpC1C2) responsible for DNP degradation, providing molecular and biochemical evidence for the degradation of DNP via the formation of 4-nitrophenol (NP), a pathway that is unique among DNP utilizing bacteria. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis indicated that dnpA, which encodes the initial hydride transferase, and dnpB which encodes a nitrite-eliminating enzyme, were induced by DNP and organized in an operon. Moreover, we purified DnpA and DnpB from recombinant Escherichia coli to demonstrate their effect on the transformation of DNP to NP through the formation of a hydride-Meisenheimer complex of DNP, designated as H--DNP. The function of DnpB appears new since all homologs of the DnpB sequences in the protein database are annotated as putative nitrate ABC transporter substrate-binding proteins. The gene cluster responsible for the degradation of DNP after NP formation was designated dnpC1C2DXFER, and DnpC1 and DnpC2 were functionally characterized as the FAD reductase and oxygenase components of the two-component DNP monooxygenase, respectively. By elucidating the hqdA1A2BCD gene cluster, we are now able to delineate the final degradation pathway of hydroquinone to β-ketoadipate before it enters the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allergic disorders are common all over the world. The pathogenesis of allergy is unclear. Therapies for allergic disorders require improvement. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is one of the factors influencing immune response. The purpose of this study is to improve the effectiveness of immunotherapy for experimental respiratory allergy by targeting the ER stress signal pathway. METHODS Committed CD4+ T cells were isolated from blood samples collected from patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) and TCR ovalbumin transgenic mice. The effects of TCR engagement and 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol (MNP) on inducing ER stress in committed CD4+ T cells were evaluated. RESULTS ER stress was detected in antigen-specific CD4+ T cells (sCD4+ T cells) of AR patients. The environmental pollutant MNP increased the expression of the X-binding protein-1 (XBP1) in the committed CD4+ T cells during the TCR engagement. XBP1 mediated the effects of MNP on inhibiting regulatory T cell (Treg) generation. The effects of MNP on induction of protein 20 (Rnf20) in CD4+ T cells were mediated by XBP1. Inhibition of Rnf20 rescued the Treg development from MNP-primed sCD4+ T cells. The ablation of Rnf20 improved the immunotherapy of AR through the restoration of the Treg generation. CONCLUSIONS ER stress can be detected in CD4+ T cells in TCR engagement. Exposure to MNP exacerbates ER stress in committed CD4+ T cells. Regulation of the ER stress-related Rnf20 expression can restore the generation of Treg from CD4+ T cells of subjects with allergic diseases.

Abstract
Oxygenases, which catalyze the reductive activation of O2 and incorporation of oxygen atoms into substrates, are widely distributed in aerobes. They function by switching the redox states of essential cofactors that include flavin, heme iron, Rieske non-heme iron, and Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate. This review summarizes the catalytic features of flavin-dependent monooxygenases, heme iron-dependent cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, Rieske non-heme iron-dependent oxygenases, Fe(II)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases, and ring-cleavage dioxygenases, which are commonly involved in pesticide degradation. Heteroatom release (hydroxylation-coupled hetero group release), aromatic/heterocyclic ring hydroxylation to form ring-cleavage substrates, and ring cleavage are the main chemical fates of pesticides catalyzed by these oxygenases. The diversity of oxygenases, specificities for electron transport components, and potential applications of oxygenases are also discussed. This article summarizes our current understanding of the catalytic mechanisms of oxygenases and a framework for distinguishing the roles of oxygenases in pesticide degradation. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Microbiology, Volume 76 is September 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.
