Genome sequence of Rhodococcus sp. strain R04, a polychlorinated-biphenyl biodegrader.
The genus Rhodococcus has proved to be a promising option for the cleanup of polluted sites and application of a microbial biocatalyst. Rhodococcus sp. strain R04, isolated from oil-contaminated soil, can biodegrade polychlorinated biphenyls. Here we report the draft genome sequence of Rhodococcus sp. strain R04, which could be used to predict genes for xenobiotic biodegradation and provide imp...
متن کاملCharacterization and functional analysis of a novel gene cluster involved in biphenyl degradation in Rhodococcus sp. strain R04.
AIMS Isolation of the genes relative to PCB biodegradation and identification of the bph gene function in Rhodococcus sp. R04. METHODS AND RESULTS A 8.7-kb fragment carrying the biphenyl catabolic genes bphABCD was isolated from the gene library in Rhodococcus sp. R04. Based on the deduced amino acid sequence homology, seven bph genes, bphA1A2A3A4, bphB, bphC and bphD, were thought to be resp...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of the Polychlorinated Biphenyl Degrader Rhodococcus sp. WB1
Rhodococcus sp. WB1 is a polychlorinated biphenyl degrader which was isolated from contaminated soil in Zhejiang, China. Here, we present the complete genome sequence. The analysis of this genome indicated that a biphenyl-degrading gene cluster and several xenobiotic metabolism pathways are harbored.
متن کاملCometabolic degradation of mono-chloro benzoic acids by Rhodococcus sp. R04 grown on organic carbon sources
The aerobic cometabolism of chlorobenzoic acids (CBAs) by Rhodococcus sp. R04 was accomplished by augmenting the medium with organic carbon sources. In mineral medium supplemented with glucose (MMG), 0.5 mM 2-CBA was incompletely metabolized after the 5day incubation, while the near-complete disappearance of 0.5 mM 4-CBA was monitored. Over the 5-day incubation period, the concentration of chlo...
متن کاملPolychlorinated biphenyl/biphenyl degrading gene clusters in Rhodococcus sp. K37, HA99, and TA431 are different from well-known bph gene clusters of Rhodococci.
Four kinds of polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB)-degrading Rhodococcus sp. (TA421, TA431, HA99, and K37) have been isolated from termite ecosystem and under alkaline condition. The bph gene cluster involved in the degradation of PCB/biphenyl has been analyzed in strain TA421. This gene cluster was highly homologous to bph gene clusters in R. globerulus P6 and Rhodococcus sp. RHA1. In this study, we...
