Popis: Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are a group of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) widely existing in the environment. Arthrobacter sp. YC-RL1 is a biphenyl-degrading bacterium that shows metabolic versatility towards aromatic compounds. A 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2, 4-dienoate (HOPDA) hydrolase (BphD) gene involved in the biodegradation of biphenyl was cloned from strain YC-RL1 and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The recombinant BphDYC-RL1 was purified and characterized. BphDYC-RL1 showed the highest activity at 45 °C and pH 7. It was stable under a wide range of temperature (20–50 °C). The enzyme had a Km value of 0.14 mM, Kcat of 11.61 s−1, and Vmax of 0.027 U/mg. Temperature dependence catalysis exhibited a biphasic Arrhenius Plot with a transition at 20 °C. BphDYC-RL1 was inactivated by SDS, Tween 20, Tween 80, Trition X-100, DTT, CHAPS, NBS, PMSF, and DEPC, but insensitive to EDTA. Site-directed mutagenesis of the active-site residues revealed that the catalytic triad residues (Ser115, His275, and Asp247) of BphDYC-RL1 were necessary for its activity. The investigation of BphDYC-RL1 not only provides new potential enzyme resource for the biodegradation of biphenyl but also helps deepen our understanding on the catalytic process and mechanism.
