Description

It was found that the cphA-1 enzyme could catalyze the degradation of catechol, 4-chlorocatechol, and 3-methylcatechol.


To certify success in constructing pSB1C3-cphA-1, digestion assay using Eco RI and Pst I was performed. The product digested by Eco RI and Pst I was around 900bp as predicted 915bp of cphA-1.

In our project, cphA-1 gene is cloned into expression vector pET28a and induced by IPTG. The optimized induction condition is 0.2mM IPTG, 180rpm in 16℃ for 24h. The enzyme is further purified by affinity chromatography.


CphA-1 activity was determined by measuring the increase of absorbance at 260 nm in 37℃, corresponding to the maximum absorbance of product muconic acid.
