Integrative Genomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of Actinomycetota from Marine Sediment
Understanding the bacterial mechanisms underlying hydrocarbon degradation is crucial for developing effective bioremediation strategies to address oil spills and other environmental pollutants. This study explores the genetic potential and transcriptional dynamics of a bacterial consortium isolated from marine sediments, employing whole-genome sequencing, 16S rRNA profiling, and transcriptomic analyses. The investigation of key metabolic pathways involved in hydrocarbon breakdown provides insight into microbial adaptation and cooperative interactions, contributing to the advancement of sustainable environmental restoration efforts.
