Expression, purification and substrate specificities of 3-nitrotoluene dioxygenase from Diaphorobacter sp. strain DS2

•3NTDO components were expressed, purified to homogeneity and characterized.•Reconstituted 3NTDO was in vitro active and removed nitro group efficiently.•3NTDO specificity was highest for 3-NT whereas least for 2,4-DNT.•Methylcatechol formation from 3-NT reveals its degradation pathway in D. sp. DS2...
