Biochemical and Molecular Characterization of a Ring Fission Dioxygenase with the Ability to Oxidize (Substituted) Salicylate(s) from Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans

The gene coding for a dioxygenase with the ability to cleave salicylate by a direct ring fission mechanism to 2-oxohepta-3,5-dienedioic acid was cloned from Pseudaminobacter salicylatoxidans strain BN12. The deduced amino acid sequence encoded a protein with a molecular mass of 41,176 Da, which show...
