Cloning of Two Gene Clusters Involved in the Catabolism of 2,4-Dinitrophenol by <i>Paraburkholderia</i> sp. Strain KU-46 and Characterization of the Initial DnpAB Enzymes and a Two-Component Monooxygenase DnpC1C2

Abstract excerpt
Besides an industrial pollutant, 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) has been used illegally as a weight loss drug that had claimed human lives. Little is known about the metabolism of DNP, particularly among Gram-negative bacteria. In this study, two non-contiguous genetic loci of Paraburkholderia (formerly Burkholderia ) sp. strain KU-46 genome were identified and four key initial genes ( dnpA , dnpB , and dnpC1C2 ) we...
