pubmed:abstractText |
Genes for metabolic pathways in bacteria that degrade aromatic or aliphatic pollutants have mostly been confined to either plasmid DNAs or to the chromosome. For a few pathways, including classical pathways for chlorocatechol and biphenyl degradation, recent evidence has been obtained for location of the pathway genes on mobile DNA elements which employ phage-like integrases. This enables the DNA elements to integrate into specific sites on the chromosome and yet to excise and transfer to other host bacteria. This mini-review gives an overview of those elements and their relationship to an increasing number of phage-like elements associated with bacterial virulence.
