Abstract excerpt
Anaerobic degradation of p-cresol (4-methylphenol) by the denitrifying betaproteobacterium Aromatoleum aromaticum EbN1 is regulated with high substrate specificity, presumed to be mediated by the predicted σ54-dependent two-component system PcrSR. An unmarked, in-frame ΔpcrSR deletion mutant showed reduced expression of the genes cmh (21-fold) and hbd (8-fold) that encode the two enzymes for initial oxidation of...
