We have studied for the first time the transcriptional regulatory circuit that controls the
expression of the box genes encoding the aerobic hybrid pathway used to assimilate …

Studies of anaerobic benzene ring degradation date back 50 years, but research on this
topic proceeded only sporadically until about 10 years ago. At that time, concerns about …

Simple homocyclic aromatic compounds are extremely abundant in the environment and are
derived largely from lignin. Such compounds may enter anaerobic environments and …

We report here that the bzd genes for anaerobic benzoate degradation in Azoarcus sp.
strain CIB are organized as two transcriptional units, ie, a benzoate-inducible catabolic …

We report here that the bzd genes for anaerobic benzoate degradation in Azoarcus sp.
strain CIB are organized as two transcriptional units, ie, a benzoate-inducible catabolic …

In this work, we have studied the transcriptional regulation of the bzd operon involved in the
anaerobic catabolism of benzoate in the denitrifying Azoarcus sp. strain CIB. The …

Benzene is biodegraded in the absence of oxygen under a variety of terminal electron-
accepting conditions. However, the mechanism by which anaerobic benzene degradation …

▪ Abstract A vast array of structurally diverse aromatic compounds is continually released
into the environment due to the decomposition of green plants and as a consequence of …

Aromatic compounds comprise a wide variety of natural and synthetic compounds that can
serve as substrates for bacterial growth. So far, four types of aromatic metabolism are …

A denitrifying Pseudomonas sp. is able to oxidize aromatic compounds compounds
completely to CO2, both aerobically and anaerobically. It is shown that benzoate is …
