Catechol 1,2-dioxygenase from α-naphthol degrading thermophilic Geobacillus sp. strain: purification and properties

Abstract: Abstract:The purpose of this study was purification and characterization of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase from Geobacillus sp. G27 strain, which degrades α-naphthol by the β-ketoadipate pathway. The catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C1,2O) was purified using four steps of ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-celullose, Sephadex G-150 and hydroxylapatite chromatographies. The enzyme was purified about 18-fold with a specific activity of 7.42 U mg of protein -1. The relative molecular mass of the native enzyme estimated on g… Show more

“…AN-22 and Arthrobacter species BA-5-17, respectively. Giedraityte and Kalediene (2009) reported only 27 and 6 % of the relative activity to catechol (7.42 U/mg of protein) of a catechol 1,2-dioxygenase from Geobacillus sp. towards 3-methylcatechol and 4-methylcatechol, respectively.…”

“…Cu 2+ drastically inhibited the C12O enzyme activity produced by P. putida (Wang et al , 2006), Geobacillus sp. (Giedraityte and Kalëdienë, 2009) and Alcaligenes xylosoxidans (Yeom and Yoo, 1999). However, the inhibition was lower than that showed by these authors, mainly by the immobilized enzyme.…”
