1. Avaliação da biodessulfurização de 4-metildibenzotiofeno por Rhodococus rhodochrous (NRRL B-2149)
O petróleo bruto convencional contém entre 0,04 a 5% de enxofre, e em geral óleos mais densos apresentam teores mais elevados. Embora pequena, esta fração é importante e sua presença torna-se indesejável, tanto por promover a corrosão do equipamento da refinaria, como porque parte dela persiste na composição dos derivados, que, ao serem queimados,

2. Genetic structures of the genes encoding 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid hydrolase from biphenyl- and 4-chlorobiphenyl-degrading Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12.
The pcbC and pcbD genes of Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ-12, a natural isolate degrading biphenyl and 4-chlorobiphenyl, encode the 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase and 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid hydrolase, respectively. The two genes were sequenced and appear to be present in the order pcbD-pcbC as an operon.

3. Glucuronide and sulfate conjugation in the fungal metabolism of aromatic hydrocarbons.
Cunninghamella elegans oxidized naphthalene to ethyl acetate-soluble and water-soluble metabolites. Experiments with [14C]-naphthalene indicated that 21% of the substrate was converted into metabolites. The ratio of organic-soluble metabolites to water-soluble metabolites was 76:24. The major ethyl acetate-soluble naphthalene metabolites were trans-1,2-dihyd

4. Initial reactions in the oxidation of 1,2-dihydronaphthalene by Sphingomonas yanoikuyae strains.
The substrate oxidation profiles of Sphingomonas yanoikuyae B1 biphenyl-2,3-dioxygenase and cis-biphenyl dihydrodiol dehydrogenase activities were examined with 1,2-dihydronaphthalene and various cis-diols as substrates. m-Xylene-induced cells of strain B1 oxidized 1,2-dihydronaphthalene to (-)-(1R,2S)-cis-1,2-dihydroxy-1,2-3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene as the m

5. Biotransformation of Biphenyl by Paecilomyces lilacinus and Characterization of Ring Cleavage Products
We examined the pathway by which the fungicide biphenyl is metabolized in the imperfect fungus Paecilomyces lilacinus. The initial oxidation yielded the three monohydroxylated biphenyls. Further hydroxylation occurred on the first and the second aromatic ring systems, resulting in the formation of five di- and trihydroxylated metabolites. The fungus could cl

6. Pseudomonas putida KF715 bphABCD operon encoding biphenyl and polychlorinated biphenyl degradation: cloning, analysis, and expression in soil bacteria.
We cloned the entire bphABCD genes encoding degradation of biphenyl and polychlorinated biphenyls to benzoate and chlorobenzoates from the chromosomal DNA of Pseudomonas putida KF715. The nucleotide sequence revealed two open reading frames corresponding to the bphC gene encoding 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl dioxygenase and the bphD gene encoding 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-

7. Cometabolic Degradation of Dibenzofuran by Biphenyl-Cultivated Ralstonia sp. Strain SBUG 290†
Cells of the gram-negative bacterium Ralstonia sp. strain SBUG 290 grown in the presence of biphenyl are able to cooxidize dibenzofuran which has been 1,2-hydroxylated. Meta cleavage of the 1,2-dihydroxydibenzofuran between carbon atoms 1 and 9b produced 2-hydroxy-4-(3′-oxo-3′H-benzofuran-2′-yliden)but-2-enoic acid, which was degraded completely via sa

8. Isolation of Terrabacter sp. Strain DDE-1, Which Metabolizes 1,1-Dichloro-2,2-Bis(4-Chlorophenyl)Ethylene when Induced with Biphenyl
Terrabacter sp. strain DDE-1, able to metabolize 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDE) in pure culture when induced with biphenyl, was enriched from a 1-1-1-trichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethane residue-contaminated agricultural soil. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis of culture extracts revealed a number of DDE catabolites, includ

9. Gene components responsible for discrete substrate specificity in the metabolism of biphenyl (bph operon) and toluene (tod operon).
bph operons coding for biphenyl-polychlorinated biphenyl degradation in Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes KF707 and Pseudomonas putida KF715 and tod operons coding for toluene-benzene metabolism in P. putida F1 are very similar in gene organization as well as size and homology of the corresponding enzymes (G.

10. Bacterial oxidation of chemical carcinogens: formation of polycyclic aromatic acids from benz[a]anthracene.
A Beijerinckia strain designated strain B1 was shown to oxidize benz[a]anthracene after induction with biphenyl, m-xylene, and salicylate. Biotransformation experiments showed that after 14 h a maximum of 56% of the benz[a]anthracene was converted to an isomeric mixture of three o-hydroxypolyaromatic acids.

11. Biotransformation of Natural and Synthetic Isoflavonoids by Two Recombinant Microbial Enzymes
Isolation and synthesis of isoflavonoids has become a frequent endeavor, due to their interesting biological activities. The introduction of hydroxyl groups into isoflavonoids by the use of enzymes represents an attractive alternative to conventional chemical synthesis. In this study, the capabilities of biphenyl-2,3-dioxygenase (BphA) and biphenyl-2,3-dihyd

12. 2-Hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate Metabolic Pathway Genes in a Strong Polychlorinated Biphenyl Degrader, Rhodococcus sp. Strain RHA1
A gram-positive polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) degrader, Rhodococcus sp. strain RHA1, metabolizes biphenyl through the 2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoate (HPD) and benzoate metabolic pathways. The HPD metabolic pathway genes, the HPD hydratase (bphE1), 4-hydroxy-2-oxovalerate aldolase (bphF1), and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (acylating) (bphG) genes, were cloned fro
