Abstract excerpt
Rhodococcus erythropolis TA421, a polychlorinated biphenyl and biphenyl degrader isolated from a termite ecosystem, has seven bphC genes expressing 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl dioxygenase activity. R. erythropolis TA421 harbored a large and probably linear plasmid on which three (bphC2, bphC3, and bphC...
