Old enzymes versus new herbicides.
Journal of Biological Chemistry 2018 May 19
The introduction of manmade chemicals, including the herbicide atrazine, into the environment has led to the emergence of microorganisms with new biodegradation pathways. Esquirol et al. demonstrate that the AtzE enzyme catalyzes a central step in atrazine degradation and that expression of AtzE requires coexpression of the small protein AtzG. Remarkably, AtzG and AtzE appear to have evolved from GatC and GatA, components of an ancient enzyme involved in indirect tRNA aminoacylation, providing an elegant demonstration of metabolic repurposing.
