  1. Discovery and Functional Analysis of a Salicylic Acid Hydroxylase from Aspergillus niger

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology

    • Salicylic acid plays an important role in the plant immune response, and its degradation is therefore important for plant-pathogenic fungi. However, many nonpathogenic microorganisms can also degrade salicylic acid. In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus niger, two salicylic acid metabolic pathways have been suggested. The first pathway converts salicylic acid to catechol by a salicylate hydroxylase (ShyA).
