Values are averages from two independent
measurements. Deviations were less than 10%, and 15%, for determinations
of enzyme activities, and dechlorination rates, respectively. Growth
substrate concentration was always 3 mM benzoate. CC-1,2-DO: Chlorocatechol-1,2-dioxygenase.
CMCI: Chloromuconate cycloisomerase. 3-CB: 3-chlorobenzoate. IPTG:
Isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside. |
