ABSTRACT We show here that the paaABCDE genes of the paa cluster responsible for phenylacetate degradation in Escherichia coli W encode a five-component oxygenase that hydroxylates phenylacetyl-coenzyme A (CoA), the first intermediate of the pathway. The primary structure of the subunits of bacterial phenylacetyl-CoA oxygenases revealed that these enzymes constitute the prototype of a new and distinct group of the large bacterial diiron multicomponent oxygenase family.

Keywords The isoflavone conjugate biochanin A-7-O-glucoside-6″-O-malonate is degraded by Fusarium javanicum with an esterase to yield biochanin A-7-O-glucoside which is further cleaved by a glucosidase to the aglycone. Biochanin A is funnelled into a known catabolic sequence (Z. Naturforsch. 37c, 861 (1982)). Induction of the catabolism of p-methoxyphenylacetic acid is linked to biochanin A degradation, whereas p-hydroxyphenylacetic acid and 3,4-dihydroxy- phenylacetic acid degradation is substrate-induced.
