A Recently Assembled Degradation Pathway for 2,3-Dichloronitrobenzene in <italic toggle="yes">Diaphorobacter</italic> sp. Strain JS3051

ABSTRACT Diaphorobacter sp. strain JS3051 utilizes 2,3-dichloronitrobenzene (23DCNB), a toxic anthropogenic compound, as the sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source for growth, but the metabolic pathway and its origins are unknown. Here, we establish that a gene cluster (dcb), encoding a Nag-like d...
