Characterization of a novel thermostable Mn(II)-dependent 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase from a polychlorinated biphenyl- and naphthalene-degrading Bacillus sp. JF8.

J. Biol. Chem. 278(24) , 21483-92, (2003)

A novel thermostable Mn(II)-dependent 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl-1,2-dioxygenase (BphC_JF8) catalyzing the meta-cleavage of the hydroxylated biphenyl ring was purified from the thermophilic biphenyl and naphthalene degrader, Bacillus sp. JF8, and the gene was clon...

Secretion of bacterial xenobiotic-degrading enzymes from transgenic plants by an apoplastic expressional system: an applicability for phytoremediation.

Environ. Sci. Technol. 39(19) , 7671-7, (2005)

In search of an effective method for phytoremediation of wastewater contaminated with organic compounds, we investigated the application of an apoplastic expressional system that secretes useful bacterial enzymes from transgenic plants into hydroponic media t...

Flow cytometry-based method for isolating live bacteria withmeta-cleavage activity on dihydroxy compounds of biphenyl

J. Biosci. Bioeng. 109(6) , 645-51, (2010)

A new method for isolating targeted live bacterial cells was established with the use of cell sorting by flow cytometry (FCM) based on the fluorescence of the intermediate metabolite of biphenyl degradation. During biphenyl degradation, a PCB degrader, Comamo...

Characterization of novel polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon dioxygenases from the bacterial metagenomic DNA of a contaminated soil.

Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 80(21) , 6591-600, (2014)

Ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases (RHDs) play a crucial role in the biodegradation of a range of aromatic hydrocarbons found on polluted sites, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Current knowledge on RHDs comes essentially from studies on cultur...

Definitive evidence for monoanionic binding of 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl to 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase from UV resonance Raman spectroscopy, UV/Vis absorption spectroscopy, and crystallography.

J. Am. Chem. Soc. 124(11) , 2485-96, (2002)

Ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRRS), electronic absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography were used to probe the nature of the binding of 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl (DHB) to the extradiol ring-cleavage enzyme, 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxyg...

Crystal structures of the reaction intermediate and its homologue of an extradiol-cleaving catecholic dioxygenase.

J. Mol. Biol. 321(4) , 621-36, (2002)

BphC derived from Pseudomonas sp. strain KKS102 is an extradiol-cleaving catecholic dioxygenase. This enzyme contains a non-heme iron atom and plays an important role in degrading biphenyl/polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the microbe. To elucidate detailed...

Characterization of extradiol dioxygenases from a polychlorinated biphenyl-degrading strain that possess higher specificities for chlorinated metabolites.

J. Bacteriol. 185(4) , 1253-60, (2003)

Recent studies demonstrated that 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase from Burkholderia sp. strain LB400 (DHBDLB400; EC 1.13.11.39) cleaves chlorinated 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyls (DHBs) less specifically than unchlorinated DHB and is competitively inhibited by 2...

Characterization of the upper pathway genes for fluorene metabolism in Terrabacter sp. strain DBF63.

J. Bacteriol. 186(17) , 5938-44, (2004)

Genes involved in the degradation of fluorene to phthalate were characterized in the fluorene degrader Terrabacter sp. strain DBF63. The initial attack on both fluorene and 9-fluorenone was catalyzed by DbfA to yield 9-fluorenol and 1,1a-dihydroxy-1-hydro-9-f...

From PCBs to highly toxic metabolites by the biphenyl pathway.

Environ. Microbiol. 6(8) , 842-50, (2004)

The degradation of polychlorobiphenyls (PCBs) by diverse bacteria, including Burkholderia sp. LB400, is incomplete with a concomitant accumulation of metabolic intermediates. In this study, the toxicity of diverse (chloro)biphenyls and of their biotransformat...
