In this study, an IclR family transcriptional regulator CehR4 was identified. In contrast to other regulators involved in salicylate degradation,\n            <jats:italic>cehR4<\/jats:italic>\n            forms one operon with the gentisyl-CoA thioesterase gene\n            <jats:italic>cehI<\/jats:italic>\n            , while\n            <jats:italic>cehG<\/jats:italic>\n            and\n            <jats:italic>cehH<\/jats:italic>\n            (encoding salicylyl-CoA ligase and salicylyl-CoA hydroxylase, respectively) form another operon.\n            <jats:italic>cehGH<\/jats:italic>\n            and\n            <jats:italic>cehIR4<\/jats:italic>\n            are divergently transcribed, and their promoters overlap. The results of the electrophoretic mobility shift assay and DNase I footprinting showed that CehR4 binds to the 42-bp motif between genes\n            <jats:italic>cehH<\/jats:italic>\n            and\n            <jats:italic>cehI<\/jats:italic>\n            , thus regulating transcription of\n            <jats:italic>cehGH<\/jats:italic>\n            and\n            <jats:italic>cehIR4<\/jats:italic>\n            .

Microbial degradation plays an important role in the elimination of aromatic compounds in the environment. Salicylate is a common intermediate metabolite in the degradation of various aromatic compounds. Recently,\n              <jats:italic>Rhizobium<\/jats:italic>\n              sp. strain X9, capable of degrading the pesticide carbaryl, was isolated from carbaryl-contaminated soil. Salicylate is the intermediate metabolite that appeared during the degradation of carbaryl, and a novel salicylate degradation pathway and the involved gene cluster\n              <jats:italic>cehGHIR4<\/jats:italic>\n              have been identified. This study identified and characterized the IclR transcription regulator CehR4 that represses transcription of\n              <jats:italic>cehGHIR4<\/jats:italic>\n              gene cluster. Additionally, the genetic arrangements of\n              <jats:italic>cehGH<\/jats:italic>\n              and\n              <jats:italic>cehIR4<\/jats:italic>\n              and the binding sites of\n              <jats:italic>CehR4<\/jats:italic>\n              were also found in other bacterial genera. This study provides insights into the biodegradation of salicylate and provides an application in the bioremediation of aromatic compound-contaminated environments.\n            <\/jats:p>\n
