Polyphenol oxidases are important metalloenzymes that catalyze the oxidation of polyphenols. Organisms can contain multiple isoenzymes whose possible different functionality is not understood. Moreover, their substrate preference is still unexplored, and a working hypothesis assumes their specifi...
We used time-resolved metabolic footprinting, an important technical approach used to monitor changes in extracellular compound concentrations during microbial growth, to study the order of substrate utilization (i.e., substrate preferences) and kinetics of a fast-growing soil isolate, Parabu...
