Enzymatic pathway for the bacterial degradation of the cyanobacterial cyclic peptide toxin microcystin LR.

An isolated bacterium, identified as a new Sphingomonas species, was demonstrated to contain a novel enzymatic pathway which acted on microcystin LR, the most common cyanobacterial cyclic peptide toxin. Degradation of microcystin LR was mediated by at least three intracellular hydrolytic enzymes. Th...
