Characterization of the crude C12O showed that the maximum activity was obtained at 40–70°C and pH 7.8–8.8. Metal ions had different influences on the activity of crude C12O. It was suggested that strain QYY possessed an inducible and ferric-dependent C12O. Kinetic studies showed that the value of V max and K m was 0.25 μmol catechol/L/mg protein/min and 52.85 μmol/L, respectively. In addition, the partial purification of C12O was achieved by a HiTrap Q Sepharose column chromatography.展开更多

Methods and Results: XylE gene coding for the catechol 2, 3 dioxygenase (CatO2ase ) was amplified from the recombinant plasmid pTG402 by using PCR technique and was subcloned into pUC118N and pUC119N. The single stranded recombinant phage DNA from the transformed E. coli MV1184 cells was used for sequencing. The sequence of xylE gene was proved to be the same as reported. The gene was then subcloned into the high expression plasmid pJLA503, its expression amount being about 34. 2% of the total bacterial proteins. Conclusion: xylE gene is highly expressed in host E. coli TG1.展开更多
