Characterization of catechol 2,3-dioxygenase from Planococcus sp. strain S5 induced by high phenol concentration.

Abstract: This study aimed at characterization of a new catechol 2,3-dioxygenase isolated from a Gram-positive bacterium able to utilize phenol as the sole carbon and energy source. Planococcus sp. strain S5 grown on 1 or 2 mM phenol showed activity of both a catechol 1,2-and catechol 2,3-dioxygenase while at a higher concentrations of phenol only catechol 2,3-dioxygenase activity was observed. The enzyme was optimally active at 60°C and pH 8.0. Kinetic studies showed that the K m and V max of the enzyme were 42.70 µM a… Show more

“…In contrast, C23O from Planococcus sp. strain S5 showed higher activity towards 4chlorocatechol than catechol and methylcatechols (Hupert-Kocurek et al 2012). As 4,5-dichlorocatechol is a product of 2,4-dichlorophenol degradation in KB2, activity of C23O for this substrate was also observed.…”

“…The degradative potential of six strains: Planococcus sp. S5, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia KB2, Pseudomonas putida N6, Pseudomonas sp., Pseudomonas putida mt-2, and Pseudomonas fluorescens towards a variety of organic compounds has previously been reported in the literature [36][37][38], whereas four strains: Pseudomonas putida OR45a, Pseudomonas putida KB3, Glutamicibacter soli OR45b, and Rhodococcus erythropolis KB4 have only recently been isolated from the environment and are presented here for the first time.…”

“…The majority of studies on the detection of catabolic genes in contaminated environments have focused on gram-negative bacteria, such as Pseudomonas , Burkholderia , Acinetobacter and Sphingomonas 26 . These strains usually carry one or two dioxygenase genes, 27 but catechol 2,3-dioxygenases constitute a group of enzymes that are considered crucial for the degradation of a wide range of aromatic compounds in contaminated habitats, and they are present in most aromatic compound-degrading strains 28, 29. Because these dioxygenase genes are commonly distributed between plasmids of different sizes and are found on the chromosome, 30 a suggestion has been made that these genes may spread to divergent bacteria by horizontal transfer 31 .…”
