چکیده

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 important insights into the applications of this strain.

Characterization 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...

Cometabolic 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...
