Pseudomonas putida converts benzoate to catechol using two enzymes that are encoded on
the chromosome and whose expression is induced by benzoate. Benzoate also binds to the …

Pseudomonas putida PRS2000 degrades the aromatic acids benzoate and 4-
hydroxybenzoate via two parallel sequences of reactions that converge at beta-ketoadipate …

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 …

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 …

In Pseudomonas putida, the catBC operon encodes enzymes involved in benzoate
degradation. Previous studies have determined that these enzymes are induced when P …

Mutants of Pseudomonas putida mt-2 that are unable to convert benzoate to catechol were
isolated and grouped into two classes: those that did not initiate attack on benzoate and …

The chromosomal benK gene was identified within a supraoperonic gene cluster involved in
benzoate degradation by Acinetobacter sp. strain ADP1, and benK was expressed in …

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 …

The alkylbenzoate degradation genes of Pseudomonas putida TOL plasmid are positively
regulated by XylS, an AraC family protein, in a benzoate-dependent manner. In this study …

Growth of Pseudomonas putida (pWWO) on alkylbenzoates requires the expression of the
meta pathway operon, which is mediated by the XylS protein after binding of a benzoate …
