Vector Development, lsolation of New Promoters and Enhancement of the Catalytic Activity of the Dsz Enzyme Complex in Rhodococcus sp. Strains

摘要

Rhodococcus is a metabolically versatile genus, commonly found in soils and sea water, markedly solvent tolerant and capable of catalyzing diverse transformation reactions of compounds present in crude oil. Among these, oxidation and catabolism of alkanes and aromatics, sulfur removal from aryl- and alkyl-sulfonates and other organoxsulfur compounds are useful characteristics.
