Abstract

Indole, indolylacetic acid, and tryptophan were oxidized by chloroperoxidases isolated from strains of Streptomyces lividansand Pseudomonas pyrrocinia. Indigo (indoxyl), isatin, and anthranilic acid (intermediate products of oxidative degradation of indole and indole derivatives) were isolated from the reaction medium.
