Degradation of protocatechuate in Pseudomonas testosteroni by a pathway involving oxidation of the product of meta-fission
Abstract
In addition to catalyzing the hydrolysis of 4-carboxy-2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde, formed by meta-fission of protocatechuate, Pseudomonas testosteroni also possesses a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(phosphate)-linked dehydrogenase for this compound and can degrade protocatechuate to pyruvate and oxaloacetate.
