The six enzymes required for catabolism of protocatechuate to succinate and acetylCoA are encoded by the pca genes in the Gram-bacterium, Acinetobacter calcoaceticus. The clustered A. calcoaceticus cat genes encode an analogous set of enzymes associated with the metabolic dissimilation of catechol. The nucleotide (nt) sequences of pcaIJFB and pcaK, reported here, complete evidence showing that all of the pca...
