Unraveling the 17β-Estradiol Degradation Pathway in Novosphingobium tardaugens NBRC 16725

We have analyzed the catabolism of estrogens in Novosphingobium tardaugens NBRC 16725, which is able to use endocrine disruptors such as 17β-estradiol, estrone, and estriol as sole carbon and energy sources. A transcriptomic analysis enabled the identification of a cluster of catabolic genes (edc cl...
