Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are a family of ubiquitous pollutants whose environmental behavior has been widely studied. Different bacterial species are able to decompose hydrocarbons by using them as a food source. One of the best-studied enzymes is naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase (NDO). A practical way to optimize the degradation process is by mutating the protein involved, increasing both the degradation...
In recent years, techniques involving the use of organisms to remove or neutralize pollutants from contaminated sites have attracted great attention. The aim of bioremediation is to use naturally occurring organisms to degrade dangerous substances to less toxic or non toxic molecules. The gram-negative bacterium Pandoraea pnomenusa strain B-356 (Pp) has been found to be able to transform a persistent...
