Mutational analysis of pcpA and its role in pentachlorophenol degradation by Sphingomonas (Flavobacterium) chlorophenolica ATCC 39723.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Dec 1997

Chanama S, Crawford R L

Abstract excerpt

Sphingomonas (Flavobacterium) chlorophenolica ATCC 39723 degrades pentachlorophenol (PCP) through a catabolic pathway encoded by multiple genes. One gene required for PCP degradation is pcpA, which encodes information for a 30-kDa polypeptide, PcpA, found in the periplasm of the bacterium. The biological role of PcpA has remained unknown. We disrupted pcpA by replacing it with a defective copy through homologous...
