BTEXgenie: A curated and user-friendly tool for profile HMM-based substrate-specific annotation of BTEX degradation genes

2026-05-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) are volatile aromatic hydrocarbons that are widespread environmental pollutants arising from petroleum processing, fuel combustion, and other industrial activities. Persistent BTEX contamination poses substantial risks to human health and ecosystems, underscoring the need for effective long term remediation strategies. Microbial bioremediation...
