a Key reactions catalyzed by E. lenta catechol dehydroxylases. b Genomic contexts of dadh in the non-dopamine metabolizing strain E. lenta DSM 2243 and the dopamine-metabolizing E. lenta A2. c Genomic contexts of cadh and hcdh in E. lenta DSM 2243. d Design of Pdadh reporters pXD70LacZ2 and pXD70LacZ7, Pcadh reporters pXD70LacZ8.1 and pXD70LacZ8, and Phcdh reporters pXD70LacZ9 and pXD70LacZ9.1. e LacZ assays revealed the transcriptional response of catechol dehydroxylase promoter reporters to corresponding catechols. f LacZ assays revealed the high specificity of each catechol dehydroxylase promoter construct for individual enzyme substrates. Data represented as mean ± SD with n = 3 biological replicates for e and f. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
