| Abstract | A DDE-degrading bacterium, Janibacter sp. TYM3221, is able to grow on biphenyl and degrades 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(4-chlorophenyl)ethylene (DDE) via a meta-ring cleavage pathway. The bphAa gene, encoding a biphenyl dioxygenase large subunit, was previously demonstrated to be involved in the degradation of DDE in TYM3221. The bph gene cluster, containing orf2 and bphDAaAbAcAdBCST was cloned and characterized. Reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) analysis indicated that these genes were transcribed as an operon. The real-time RT-PCR on orf2, bphAa, bphC, and bphS suggest the presence of the inducible orf2 promoter (orf2p) and constitutive bphAa promoter (bphAap). The TYM3221 bphST conducted biphenyl-dependent inducible activation plus constitutive basal activation of orf2p and constitutive activation of bphAap in a rhodococcal host strain, Rhodococcus erythropolis IAM1399, suggesting that expression of the TYM3221 bph operon depends on the bphST-coded two-component regulatory system. Both of these promoters were also induced by the bphS1T1 of a biphenyl degrader, Rhodococcus jostii RHA1, and contained the 24-bp consensus sequences of RHA1 bphS1T1-dependent promoters. The replacement of RHA1 bphS1 with TYM3221 bphS in combination with RHA1 bphT1 suggests that TYM3221 bphS is responsible for low inducible and high constitutive activation of orf2p in IAM1399 by the TYM3221 bphST-system. Expression of bphAaAbAcAdBC in IAM1399 resulted in the transformation of DDE to the meta-ring cleavage product via 2,3-hydroxylation, suggesting that these genes are involved in DDE degradation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
