Identification of a Novel Dioxygenase Involved in Metabolism of o-Xylene, Toluene, and Ethylbenzene by Rhodococcus sp. Strain DK17

Rhodococcus sp. strain DK17 is able to grow on o-xylene, benzene, toluene, and ethylbenzene. DK17 harbors at least two megaplasmids, and the genes encoding the initial steps in alkylbenzene metabolism are present on the 330-kb pDK2. The genes encoding alkylbenzene degradation were cloned in a cosmid...
