Abstract excerpt
Two different monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were raised against 2,4-dichlorophenol hydroxylase (DCP-hydroxylase) of Ralstonia eutropha JMP134 (pJP4), the second enzyme in the 2,4-D-degradative pathway of this bacterium. The utility of these antibodies in detecting and characterizing 2,4-D-degrading soil bacteria was investigated. One MAb (F6) reacted with DCP-hydroxylase from 27 out of 36 strains tested, while the...
