The facile preparation of a novel 8-membered polyhydroxylated salicylic acid lactone from 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid and sodium thio-D-glucose is described. The key step involved a sodium hydride promoted intramolecular lactonization in the presence of excess TMSCl, which led to isolation of

This study evaluated the kinetics of simultaneous biodegradation of peptone mixture and 2,6-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,6-DHBA) by an acclimated dual microbial culture under aerobic conditions. A laboratory-scale sequencing batch reactor was sustained at steady-state with peptone mixture feeding. During the study

A nonoxidative decarboxylase, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate decarboxylase, was found in Agrobacterium tumefaciens IAM12048. The enzyme activity was induced specifically by 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate. The purified enzyme was a homotetramer of identical 38 kDa subunits. The purified decarboxylase catalyzed the nonoxidative decarboxylation of 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate and

We identified a gene cluster that is involved in the gamma-resorcylate (2,6-dihydroxybenzoate) catabolism of the aerobic bacterium Rhizobium sp. strain MTP-10005. The cluster consists of the graRDAFCBEK genes, and graA, graB, graC, and graD were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli.
