New Lindane-Degrading Strains Achromobacter sp. NE1 and Brevundimonas sp. 242

— Two strains were isolated, Achromobacter sp. NE1 (GenBank MW132988) and Brevundimonas sp. 242 (GenBank MW132989), which possessed a unique ability to use lindane and the intermediates of its a-erobic biotransformation, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (strain NE1) and 2,5-dichlorophenol (strain 242) as a so...

Zusammenfassung:— Two strains were isolated, Achromobacter sp. NE1 (GenBank MW132988) and Brevundimonas sp. 242 (GenBank MW132989), which possessed a unique ability to use lindane and the intermediates of its a-erobic biotransformation, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene (strain NE1) and 2,5-dichlorophenol (strain 242) as a sole source of carbon and energy. The strains were found to contain the linA gene encoding dehydrochlorinase, the first enzyme of lindane degradation, exhibiting 99.65–100% sequence identity to the linA genes of Sphingobium degrader strains.
