Melamine Deaminase and Atrazine Chlorohydrolase: 98 Percent Identical but Functionally Different
TL;DR: The data strongly suggest that the 9 amino acid differences between melamine deaminase and AtzA represent a short evolutionary pathway connecting enzymes catalyzing physiologically relevant deamination and dehalogenation reactions, respectively.

Occurrence of Pesticides in Shallow Groundwater of the United States: Initial Results from the National Water-Quality Assessment Program
TL;DR: The first phase of intensive data collection for the National Water Quality Assessment (NAWQA) was completed during 1993−1995 in 20 major hydrologic basins of the United States as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pesticide metabolism in plants and microorganisms
TL;DR: Pesticide biotransformation may occur via multistep processes known as metabolism or cometabolism as discussed by the authors, which is not used as an energy source or as a constitutive element of the organism.

Biodegration of s-triazine xenobiotics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the potential for biodegradation of s-triazines as an example and with biological treatment of wastewater containing s-Triazines as the aim, but the system was not practicable because the specific enzymes were too low, because of inhibition by salt in the wastewater and because expensive carbon sources were necessary.
