Title: On the road to bioremediation of "dioxin". Author: Buckel W. Journal: Chem Biol; 2005 Jul; 12(7):723-4. PubMed ID: 16039520. Abstract: Mohammadi and Sylvestre report engineering of a dioxygenase to create an enzyme that attacks dibenzofuran in the lateral position. Subsequent oxidation and a second dioxygenation produced ring-open products. All metabolites were unambiguously identified by 1H-NMR. This new pathway targets degradation of chlorinated dibenzofurans.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
