Proteomic applications to elucidate bacterial aromatic hydrocarbon metabolic pathways.
The growing availability of genome sequences and advancement of high-throughput omics and analytical chemistry technologies have reinvigorated the study of biodegradation processes in aromatic hydrocarbon catabolism. In particular, proteomics approaches globally have identified and quantified bacterial enzymes responsible for aromatic hydrocarbon metabolism, which significantly assists in determining strategies for the biodegradation of aromatic hydrocarbons with applications in environmental bioremediation.
