Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial dehalogenases: biochemistry, genetics, and biotechnological applications.
Susanne Fetzner,Franz Lingens +1 more
TL;DR: This review is a survey of bacterial dehalogenases that catalyze the cleavage of halogen substituents from haloaromatics, haloalkanes, h Haloalcohols, and h Haloalkanoic acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification and some properties of 2-halobenzoate 1,2-dioxygenase, a two-component enzyme system from Pseudomonas cepacia 2CBS.
TL;DR: The two components of the inducible 2-halobenzoate 1,2-dioxygenase from Pseudomonas cepacia 2CBS were purified to homogeneity and exhibited a very broad substrate specificity, but benzoate analogs with electron-withdrawing substituents at the ortho position were transformed preferentially.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phenylobacterium immobile gen. nov., sp. nov., a Gram-Negative Bacterium That Degrades the Herbicide Chloridazon
Franz Lingens,Renate Blecher,Hartmut Blecher,Friedhelm Blobel,Jürgen Eberspächer,Christoph Fröhner,Helma Görisch,Helmut Görisch,Gerlinde Layh +8 more
TL;DR: Bacteria which utilize the xenobiotic compounds chloridazon, antipyrin, and pyramidon as sole carbon sources were isolated from various soil samples and characterized as a new genus, Phenylobacterium, with a single species,phenylobacteria immobile, which is a serologically uniform group of organisms, which are harmless to rats and rabbits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degradation of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol by Azotobacter sp. strain GP1.
TL;DR: Induction studies, including treatment of the cells with chloramphenicol prior to TCP or phenol addition, revealed that TCP induced TCP degradation but not phenol degradation and that phenol induced only its own utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Metabolism of Quinoline and Related Compounds
TL;DR: 16 bacterial strains were isolated which utilize quinoline as sole carbon and nitrogen source and could be identified as members of the genus Pseudomonas, three strains show a positive Gram strain and were identified as Rhodococcus species.
