Genetic structures of the genes encoding 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid hydrolase from biphenyl- and 4-chlorobiphenyl-degrading Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12.

ABSTRACT: The pcbC and pcbD genes of Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12, a natural isolate degrading biphenyl and 4-chlorobiphenyl, encode the 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid hydrolase, respectively. The two genes were sequenced and appear to be present in the order pcbD-pcbC as an operon.

Project description:Biphenyl dioxygenase (BPDO) catalyzes the aerobic transformation of biphenyl and various polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). In three different assays, BPDO(B356) from Pandoraea pnomenusa B-356 was a more potent PCB-degrading enzyme than BPDO(LB400) from Burkholderia xenovorans LB400 (75% amino acid sequence identity), transforming nine congeners in the following order of preference: 2,3',4-trichloro approximately 2,3,4'-trichloro > 3,3'-dichloro > 2,4,4'-trichloro > 4,4'-dichloro approximately 2,2'-dichloro > 2,6-dichloro > 2,2',3,3'-tetrachloro approximately 2,2',5,5'-tetrachloro. Except for 2,2',5,5'-tetrachlorobiphenyl, BPDO(B356) transformed each congener at a higher rate than BPDO(LB400). The assays used either whole cells or purified enzymes and either individual congeners or mixtures of congeners. Product analyses established previously unrecognized BPDO(B356) activities, including the 3,4-dihydroxylation of 2,6-dichlorobiphenyl. BPDO(LB400) had a greater apparent specificity for biphenyl than BPDO(B356) (k(cat)/K(m) = 2.4 x 10(6) +/- 0.7 x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1) versus k(cat)/K(m) = 0.21 x 10(6) +/- 0.04 x 10(6) M(-1) s(-1)). However, the latter transformed biphenyl at a higher maximal rate (k(cat) = 4.1 +/- 0.2 s(-1) versus k(cat) = 0.4 +/- 0.1 s(-1)). A variant of BPDO(LB400) containing four active site residues of BPDO(B356) transformed para-substituted congeners better than BPDO(LB400). Interestingly, a substitution remote from the active site, A267S, increased the enzyme's preference for meta-substituted congeners. Moreover, this substitution had a greater effect on the kinetics of biphenyl utilization than substitutions in the substrate-binding pocket. In all variants, the degree of coupling between congener depletion and O(2) consumption was approximately proportional to congener depletion. At 2.4-A resolution, the crystal structure of the BPDO(B356)-2,6-dichlorobiphenyl complex, the first crystal structure of a BPDO-PCB complex, provided additional insight into the reactivity of this isozyme with this congener, as well as into the differences in congener preferences of the BPDOs.
