Diversity and catalytic potential of PAH-specific ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases from a hydrocarbon-contaminated soil.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology - 1 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

Ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases (RHDs) catalyze the initial oxidation step of a range of aromatic hydrocarbons including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). As such, they play a key role in the bacterial degradation of these pollutants in soil. Several polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based methods have been implemented to assess the diversity of RHDs in soil, allowing limited sequence-based predictions on...
