Fig 6. Role of accumulation of intermediates in the catabolism of phenol and salicylate as single or mixed substrates in C70 and C70ΔpheB.

Fig 6

The figure sketches the degradation pathways and genes (mPH—multicomponent phenol hydroxylase; pheB and nahH—C23O; nahW and nahG—salicylate 1-hydroxylase) involved in phenol and salicylate catabolism as single (A, B) and mixed substrates (C, D). The supposed negative effect of accumulating intermediates 2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde (HMS, yellow box) and catechol (brown box) to the functioning of involved catabolic genes are indicated with red arrows (with numbers 1, 2 and 3). Green arrows point to convergence or divergence of degradation of intermediates.
