Biochemical Characterization of 3-Methyl-4-nitrophenol degradation in Burkholderia sp. Strain SJ98
Several strains have been reported to grow on 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol (3M4NP), the primary breakdown product of the excessively used insecticide fenitrothion. However, the microbial degradation of 3M4NP at molecular and biochemical levels remains unknown. Here, methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (MBQ) and methy...
