Effect of disrupting phcT on the expression of the mPH operon in C. testosteroni R5 grown on phenol in a continuous culture
| Strain | Phenol-oxygenating activity (μmol min−1 [g of dry cells]−1) | C23DOase activity (μmol min−1 [mg of protein]−1) |
|---|---|---|
| R5a | 213 ± 5 (100) | 2.27 ± 0.14 (100) |
| R5T | 117 ± 7 (55) | 1.58 ± 0.11 (70) |
