A putative benM gene encoding a LysR-type regulator located upstream from the benA gene
was found in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus PHEA-2. Disruption of benM or benA destroyed …

In Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1, benzoate degradation requires the ben genes for
converting benzoate to catechol and the cat genes for degrading catechol. Here we describe …

Two LysR-type transcriptional regulators, BenM and CatM, control benzoate consumption by
the soil bacterium Acinetobacter baylyi ADP1. These homologs play overlapping roles in the …

BenM and CatM are distinct, but similar, LysR-type transcriptional regulators of the soil
bacterium Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1. Together, the two regulators control the expression …

Acinetobacter lwoffii K24 is a known aniline-degrading bacterium. In previous studies, two
catechol branches of the β-ketoadipate pathway were reported to be induced for aniline …

The purpose of this study was to perform proteome analysis of Acinetobacter sp. KS-1, a
bacterium capable of degrading benzoate as a sole carbon source. In order to understand …

Mutants of the bacterium Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1 were selected to grow on benzoate
without the BenM transcriptional activator. In the wild type, BenM responds to benzoate and …

We report here that the bzd genes for anaerobic benzoate degradation in Azoarcus sp.
strain CIB are organized as two transcriptional units, ie, a benzoate-inducible catabolic …

Biosynthetic regulation of catA, the gene encoding catechol 1, 2-dioxygenase (EC 1.13. 1.1),
was studied in an Acinetobacter calcoaceticus mutant strain unable to metabolize benzoate …

Crc protein is a global regulator involved in catabolite repression control of several
pathways for the assimilation of carbon sources in pseudomonads when other preferred …
