Popis: 2,6-Dichloro-p-hydroquinone (DiCHQ) aromatic-ring cleavage by DiCHQ 1,2-dioxygenase (CpsA) is very crucial for complete transformation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) to 2-chloromaleylacetate in Bacillus cereus AOA-CPS_1 (BcAOA). The 978 bp gene (cpsA) was detected and amplified in the genome of BcAOA; cloned, overexpressed and purified to homogeneity. CpsA showed a single ≅36.9 kDa protein band on SDS-PAGE and exhibited optimum activity at 30 °C and pH 9.0. CpsA was stable between 20 °C and 40 °C, and also retained about 90% of its activity at 60 °C for 120 min. The enzyme retained about 90% activity between pH 9.0 and 11.5 and 60% activity at pH 13.0. CpsA was found to be Fe
