Alkane Hydroxylase Gene (alkB) Phylotype Composition and Diversity in Northern Gulf of Mexico Bacterioplankton
Natural and anthropogenic activities introduce alkanes into marine systems where they are degraded by alkane hydroxylases expressed by phylogenetically diverse bacteria. Partial sequences for alkB, one of the structural genes of alkane hydroxylase, have been used to assess the composition of alkane...
