Degradation of 4-Chlorophenol via the meta Cleavage Pathway by Comamonas testosteroni JH5.
Comamonas testosteroni JH5 used 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) as its sole source of energy and carbon up to a concentration of 1.8 mM, accompanied by the stoichiometric release of chloride. The degradation of 4-CP mixed with the isomeric 2-CP by resting cells led to the accumulation of 3-chlorocatechol (3-CC), which inactivated the catechol 2,3-dioxygenase. As a result, further 4-CP breakdown was inhib...
متن کاملSteroid degradation in Comamonas testosteroni.
Steroid degradation by Comamonas testosteroni and Nocardia restrictus have been intensively studied for the purpose of obtaining materials for steroid drug synthesis. C. testosteroni degrades side chains and converts single/double bonds of certain steroid compounds to produce androsta-1,4-diene 3,17-dione or the derivative. Following 9α-hydroxylation leads to aromatization of the A-ring accompa...
متن کاملMeta-cleavage enzyme gene tesB is necessary for testosterone degradation in Comamonas testosteroni TA441.
Comamonas testosteroni metabolizes testosterone as the sole carbon source via a meta-cleavage reaction. A meta-cleavage enzyme gene, tesB, was cloned from C. testosteroni TA441. The deduced N-terminal amino acid sequence of tesB matched that of the purified meta-cleavage enzyme which is induced in TA441 during growth on testosterone as the sole carbon source. The tesB-disrupted mutant did not s...
متن کاملGene encoding the hydrolase for the product of the meta-cleavage reaction in testosterone degradation by Comamonas testosteroni.
In a previous study we isolated the meta-cleavage enzyme gene, tesB, that encodes an enzyme that carries out a meta-cleavage reaction in the breakdown of testosterone by Comamonas testeroni TA441 (M. Horinouchi et al., Microbiology 147:3367-3375, 2001). Here we report the isolation of a gene, tesD, that encodes a hydrolase which acts on the product of the meta-cleavage reaction. We isolated tes...
متن کاملPhotocatalytic Degradation of 4-Chlorophenol. 2. The 4-Chlorocatechol Pathway
The TiO2-mediated photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorocatechol is studied as a branch of the degradation of 4-chlorophenol. In addition to some basic kinetic studies, the identities of many of the cyclic and acyclic intermediates, verified in most cases with authentic samples, are reported. From 4-chlorocatechol, the major product is hydroxylation to form 5-chloro-1,2,4-benzenetriol. A small ...
