Abstract:Aromatoleum aromaticum

anaerobically degrades phenol,
p
-cresol, and
p
-ethylphenol, each via a distinct peripheral pathway. The compound-specific regulation of each pathway is proposed to occur on the transcriptional level in the case of phenol supposedly mediated by the one-component system PheR. To confirm its predicted function, we generated an unmarked, in-frame deletion mutant (Δ
pheR
). Thi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
