Summary

Biochemical, genomic, and transcriptomic analyses revealed the metabolic pathways used by Mycolicibacterium sp. strain MBM to degrade the plasticizer di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate, with the bacterium functioning in both freshwater and seawater salinity ranges.

Study Type Environmental

A detailed co-relation of biochemical, genomic, transcriptomic and RT-qPCR analyses highlights the PAE-degrading catabolic machineries in strain MBM. Further, due to functional attributes in the salinity range of both freshwater and seawater, strain MBM may find use as a suitable candidate in the bioremediation of PAEs.
