| Abstract: | This study presents 100% degradation of H-acid
under optimized conditions using Alcaligenes latus, isolated from
textile industrial effluent. Gene/s responsible for H-acid degradation was/were
found to be present on plasmid DNA. Addition of bipyridyl to incubated medium
resulted in accumulation of terminal aromatic compound, suggesting that
catechol may be terminal aromatic compound in degradation pathway of H-acid by A.
latus. SDS-PAGE of cell free extracts showed two prominent bands close to
molecular weight of catechol 1,2-dioxygenase. |
