Conversion of 2-chloro-cis,cis-muconate and its metabolites 2-chloro- and 5-chloromuconolactone by chloromuconate cycloisomerases of pJP4 and pAC27.
2-Chloro-cis,cis-muconate, the product of ortho-cleavage of 3-chlorocatechol, was converted by purified preparations of the pJP4- and pAC27-encoded chloromuconate cycloisomerases (EC 5.5.1.7) to trans-dienelactone (trans-4-carboxymethylenebut-2-en-4-olide). The same compound was also formed when (+)-2-chloro- and (+)-5-chloromuconolactone were substrates of these enzyme preparations. Thus, the pJP4- and pAC27-encoded chloromuconate cycloisomerases are able to catalyze chloride elimination from (+)-5-chloromuconolactone. The ability to convert (+)-2-chloromuconolactone differentiates these enzymes from other groups of cycloisomerases.
