Abstract

For enhancement ofcis,cis-muconate productivity from benzoate, catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O) which catalyzes the rate-limiting step (catechol conversion tocis,cis-muconate) was cloned and expressed in recombinantPseudomonas putida BCM114. At higher benzoate concentrations (more than 15 mM),cis,cis-muconate productivity gradually decreased and unconverted catechol was accumulated up to 10 mM in the case of wildtypeP. putida BM014, whereascis,cis-muconate productivity continuously increased and catechol was completely transformed tocis,cis-muconate forP. putida BCM114. Specific C12O activity ofP. putida BCM114 was about three times higher than that ofP. putida BM014, and productivity was enhanced more than two times.
