Application of Monooxygenases in Dehalogenation, Desulphurization, Denitrification and Hydroxylation of Aromatic Compounds (2010, background): “Several publications have been focused on dioxygenases and their role in biodegradation [9-12].”
Recent Advances in Petroleum Microbiology (2003, background): “Because of its broad specificity towards a wide range of aromatic hydrocarbons, NDO can produce chiral petrochemical-based precursors for the synthesis of specialty chemicals (70, 216, 509, 510).”
Aerobic Degradation of Aromatic Hydrocarbons (2016, background): “The so called Rieske non-heme iron oxygenases are one of the key families of enzymes important for aerobic activation and thus degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzoate, benzene, toluene, phthalate, naphthalene or biphenyl (Gibson and Parales, 2000).”
Microbial biodegradation of polyaromatic hydrocarbons. (2008, background): “…dioxygenases through either an ortho-cleavage pathway or a meta-cleavage pathway , leading to central intermediates such as protocatechuates and catechols that are further converted to tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates (Cerniglia, 1992; Eaton & Chapman, 1992; Gibson & Parales, 2000).”
Bioremediation and Phytoremediation of Pesticides: Recent Advances (2009, methodology): “Requirements for the design of bacteria with multiple pathways for use in bioremediation have been described by Gibson and Parales (2000).”
