The paper mainly focused on illustrating the merit of respirometric analysis in assessing the inhibitory/toxic impact of xenobiotics on substrate biodegradation. It also evaluated biodegradation characteristics of these chemicals at continuous exposure through acclimation ofthe microbial culture. The nature and

We identified a gene cluster that is involved in the gamma-resorcylate (2,6-dihydroxybenzoate) catabolism of the aerobic bacterium Rhizobium sp. strain MTP-10005. The cluster consists of the graRDAFCBEK genes, and graA, graB, graC, and graD were heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli.

A nonoxidative decarboxylase, 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate decarboxylase, was found in Agrobacterium tumefaciens IAM12048. The enzyme activity was induced specifically by 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate. The purified enzyme was a homotetramer of identical 38 kDa subunits. The purified decarboxylase catalyzed the nonoxidative decarboxylation of 2,6-dihydroxybenzoate and
