Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase(Cat No.:I041036)is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative cleavage of protocatechuate, a compound derived from the breakdown of aromatic compounds, into products that can be further metabolized. This reaction involves the incorporation of molecular oxygen and the formation of a cis,cis-muconate intermediate, which is key in the catabolic pathways of aromatic compounds in bacteria, such as Pseudomonas species. Protocatechuate 3,4-dioxygenase plays a crucial role in the bioremediation of environmental pollutants and in the microbial degradation of lignin and other aromatic substances, making it important for both environmental and industrial applications.
