초록

2-Hydroxymuconic semialdehyde dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of 2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde (HMS) to an enol form of 4-oxalocrotonate which is a step in the catechol-meta cleavage pathway. A tomC gene encoding 2-HMS dehydrogenase of Burkholderia cepacia G4, a soil bacterium that can grow on toluene, cresol, phenol or tricholoro ethylene, is identified in between catechol 2,3-dioxygenase gene and HMS hydrolase gene, its sequence is analysed and the enzyme is characterised.
