Comparison of biotransformation mechanisms of 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene and its hydride-Meisenheimer metabolite by the old yellow enzyme family of flavoproteins

Comparison of biotransformation mechanisms of 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene and its hydride-Meisenheimer metabolite by the old yellow enzyme family of flavoproteins

2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a persistent pollutant; for removing it from environment, the biodegradation becomes an economical and environmentally friendly alternative. However, TNT is difficult to naturally mineralize due to the stability of benzene ring. Interestingly, the hydride metabolite (H...
