High-density whole-genome cDNA microarrays were used to investigate substrate-
dependent gene expression of Methylibium petroleiphilum PM1, one of the best …

Methylibium petroleiphilum PM1 is a methylotroph distinguished by its ability to completely
metabolize the fuel oxygenate methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). Strain PM1 also degrades …

The structure and function of a microbial community capable of biodegrading methyl-tert-
butyl ether (MTBE) was characterized using compound-specific stable isotope analysis …

Methylibium petroleiphilum PM1 is a well-characterized environmental strain capable of
complete metabolism of the fuel oxygenate methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE). Using a …

Anaerobic methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) degradation potential was investigated in samples
from a range of sources. From these 22 experimental variations, only one source (from …

The widespread use of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) has caused major contamination of
groundwater sources and is a concern due to its taste and odor problems, as well as its …

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is a persistent pollutant of surface and groundwater, and the
reasons for its low biodegradability are poorly documented. Using one of the rare bacterial …

The gasoline additive MTBE, methyl tert‐butyl ether, is a widespread and persistent
groundwater contaminant. MTBE undergoes rapid mineralization as the sole carbon and …

Multidimensional compound-specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA) was applied in
combination with RNA-based molecular tools to characterize methyl tertiary (tert-) butyl ether …

Degradation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) as a sole carbon and energy source was
investigated utilizing an enriched bacterial consortium derived from an old environmental …
