General description
4-Chlorophenylacetic acid possess anticancer properties. It is a novel therapeutic agent which can be useful in prevention or treatment of estrogen-sensitive breast cancer. It acts as carbon and energy supplement and is degraded by Pseudomonas sp. strain CBS3.
Application
4-Chlorophenylacetic acid was used to study the mechanism of aerobic degradation of 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethane by Ralstonia eutropha A5.

Evidence is presented demonstrating the ability of Ralstonia eutropha A5 to degrade 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethane (DDD) aerobically. Strain A5 was able to effect significant transformation of [(14)C]DDD: the hexane extractable radioactivity decreased to approximately 50% of the controls while more than 25%

The aromatic fatty acid phenylacetate (PA) and its analogs have come under intense investigation due to their ability to cause the growth arrest of a variety of neoplasia, including human breast cancer. We have determined that PA and its halide

We have investigated the effects of the low-toxic retinoid, all-trans retinoyl beta-glucuronide (RAG) alone and in combination with the phenylacetate (PA) derivative 4-chloro-phenylacetate (4-CPA) on the human neuroblastoma cell line, LA-N-5. In vitro studies demonstrated that RAG and 4-CPA treatments

In cell-free extracts from Pseudomonas sp. strain CBS3 the conversion of 4-chlorophenylacetate to 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetate was demonstrated. By Sephacryl S-200 chromatography two protein fractions, A and B, were obtained which both were essential for enzyme activity. Fe2+ and NADH were cofactors

Pseudomonas spec. CBS 3 converts 4-chlorophenylacetic acid partly into 3-chloro-4-hydroxy-, 4-chloro-3-hydroxy-, and 4-chloro-2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid by the action of monooxygenases. However, these compounds are not intermediates in the degradation of 4-chlorophenylacetic acid. Pseudomonas spec. CBS 3 is not able to grow
