| Abstract | A novel salicylate-degrading Streptomyces sp., strain WA46, was identified by UV fluorescence on solid minimal medium containing salicylate; trace amounts of gentisate were detected by high-pressure liquid chromatography when strain WA46 was grown with salicylate. PCR amplification of WA46 DNA with degenerate primers for gentisate 1,2-dioxygenase (GDO) genes produced an amplicon of the expected size. Sequential PCR with nested GDO primers was then used to identify a salicylate degradation gene cluster in a plasmid library of WA46 chromosomal DNA. The nucleotide sequence of a 13.5-kb insert in recombinant plasmid pWD1 (which was sufficient for the complete degradation of salicylate) showed that nine putative open reading frames (ORFs) (sdgABCDEFGHR) were involved. Plasmid pWD1 derivatives disrupted in each putative gene were transformed into Streptomyces lividans TK64. Disruption of either sdgA or sdgC blocked salicylate degradation; constructs lacking sdgD accumulated gentisate. Cell extracts from Escherichia coli DH5α transformants harboring pUC19 that expressed each of the sdg ORFs showed that conversions of salicylate to salicylyl-coenzyme A (CoA) and salicylyl-CoA to gentisyl-CoA required SdgA and SdgC, respectively. SdgA required CoA and ATP as cofactors, while NADH was required for SdgC activity; SdgC was identified as salicylyl-CoA 5-hydroxylase. Gentisyl-CoA underwent spontaneous cleavage to gentisate and CoA. SdgA behaved as a salicylyl-CoA ligase despite showing amino acid sequence similarity to an AMP-ligase. SdgD was identified as a GDO. These results suggest that Streptomyces sp. strain WA46 degrades salicylate by a novel pathway via a CoA derivative. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and reverse transcriptase-PCR studies indicated that salicylate induced expression of the sdg cluster. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
