Application of nitroarene dioxygenases in the design of novel strains that degrade chloronitrobenzenes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Widespread application of chloronitrobenzenes as feedstocks for the production of industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals has resulted in extensive environmental contamination with these toxic compounds, where they pose significant risks to the health ...

Specificity of Rhodococcus opacus 1CP cells’ responses to benzoate and 3-chlorobenzoate

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Elite, 2022
Background: Halogenated aromatic compounds are more resistant to microbial degradation than non-halogenated aromatic compounds. Microbial degradation of sodium benzoate in the presence of sodium 3-chlorobenzoate is of interest.

Biosynthesis of retinal in bovine corpus luteum

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1974
Bovine corpus luteum tissue was sliced and incubated with β-[15,15′-3H]carotene. The conversion of radioactive β-carotene into radioactive retinal was substantiated utilizing column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, high-speed liquid ...

A Recently Assembled Degradation Pathway for 2,3-Dichloronitrobenzene in Diaphorobacter sp. Strain JS3051

open access: yesmBio, 2021
Diaphorobacter sp. strain JS3051 utilizes 2,3-dichloronitrobenzene (23DCNB), a toxic anthropogenic compound, as the sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source for growth, but the metabolic pathway and its origins are unknown. Here, we establish that a gene

Assessment of the number of catabolic genes of oil-contaminated soils

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2019
In this work, laboratory modeling of three levels of oil contamination (60, 120 and 250 g kg–1) was carried out for three types of soil: eutric podzoluvisols, haplic greyzem, and haplic chernozems.

A Sub-Type of Familial Pancreatic Cancer: Evidence and Implications of Loss-of-Function Polymorphisms in Indoleamine-2,3-Dioxygenase-2. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Variation in an individual\u27s genetic status can impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma; however, the majority of familial pancreatic cancers (FPC) cannot yet be attributed to a specific inherited mutation.
