The first step of anaerobic benzoate degradation is the formation of benzoyl-coenzyme A by benzoate-coenzyme A ligase. This enzyme, purified from Rhodopseudomonas palustris, is maximally active with 5 microM benzoate. To study the molecular basis for this reaction, the benzoate-coenzyme

In methanogenic environments, the main fate of benzoate is its oxidization to acetate, H(2) and CO(2) by syntrophic associations of hydrogen-producing benzoate degraders and hydrogen-using methanogens. Here, we report the use of benzoate as an electron acceptor. Pure cultures of
