In vitro assays demonstrated that toluene-grown cells of Geobacter metallireducens catalyzed the addition of toluene to fumarate to form benzylsuccinate under anaerobic conditions. The specific in vitro rate of benzylsuccinate formationwas ca. 45% of the specific in vivo rate of toluene consumption. In addition, bssA and bssB, which code for the α and β subunits of benzylsuccinate synthase (BSS),...
The capacity of some bacteria to metabolize hydrocarbons in the absence of molecular oxygen was first recognized only about ten years ago. Since then, the number of hydrocarbon compounds shown to be catabolized anaerobically by pure bacterial cultures has been steadily increasing. This review summarises the current knowledge of the bacterial isolates capable of anaerobic mineralization of hydrocarbons,...
