Characterization of the catabolic pathway for a phenylcoumaran-type lignin-derived biaryl in Sphingobium sp strain SYK-6
Sphingobium sp. strain SYK-6 is capable of degrading various lignin-derived biaryls. We determined the catabolic pathway of a phenylcoumaran-type compound, dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (DCA) in SYK-6, and identified some of the DCA catabolism genes. In SYK-6 cells, the alcohol group of DCA was oxidize...

Sphingobium sp. strain SYK-6 is capable of degrading various lignin-derived biaryls. We determined the catabolic pathway of a phenylcoumaran-type compound, dehydrodiconiferyl alcohol (DCA) in SYK-6, and identified some of the DCA catabolism genes. In SYK-6 cells, the alcohol group of DCA was oxidized to the carboxyl group, first at the B-ring side chain and then at the A-ring side chain. The resultant metabolite was degraded to 5-formylferulate and vanillin through the decarboxylation and the Cα-Cβ cleavage of the A-ring side chain. Based on the DCA catabolic pathway, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) genes are thought to be involved in the conversion of DCA into an aldehyde intermediate (DCA-L) and the conversion of DCA-L into a carboxylic acid intermediate (DCA-C), respectively. SLG_05620 and SLG_24930, which belong to quinohemoprotein ADH and aryl ADH, respectively, were isolated as the genes responsible for the oxidation of DCA. In addition to these genes, multiple genes similar to SLG_05620 and SLG_24930 were found to confer DCA oxidation activities on Escherichia coli cells.
