Abstract excerpt
Polaromonas naphthalenivorans CJ2, found to be responsible for the degradation of naphthalene in situ at a coal tar waste-contaminated site (C.-O. Jeon et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 100:13591-13596, 2003), is able to grow on mineral salts agar media with naphthalene as the sole carbon source. Beginning from a 484-bp nagAc-like region, we used a genome walking strategy to sequence genes encoding the entire...
