Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of resistance of whole cells to toxic organic solvents
TL;DR: One of the key processes in the adaptation of some Pseudomonas strains, enabling them to tolerate organic solvents appears to be the isomerization of cis - into trans-unsaturated fatty acids.

Journal ArticleDOI
Screening for ligninolytic fungi applicable to the biodegradation of xenobiotics
TL;DR: Woody tissues are composed mainly of three biopoly- mers: cellulose; hemicellulose; and lignin, a highly irregular aromatic polymer which serves to pro- vide strength and structure to the tissue.
Journal ArticleDOI
Engineering of Solvent-Tolerant Pseudomonas putida S12 for Bioproduction of Phenol from Glucose
TL;DR: Efficient bioconversion of glucose to phenol via the central metabolite tyrosine was achieved in the solvent-tolerant strain Pseudomonas putida S12, achieving a twofold increase in the overall production compared to a single-phase fed batch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aryl alcohols in the physiology of ligninolytic fungi
TL;DR: The aryl alcohol/aldehyde couple is well protected against degradation by the fungi's extracellular ligninolytic enzymes and their concentrations in the extracllular fluid are highly regulated by intracellular enzymes.
