Quantitative Proteomics Reveals Substrate-Specific Metabolic Adaptations for n-Alkane and Branched Alkane Degradation in Dietzia sp. CN-3
Although hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria play a critical role in petroleum bioremediation, the substrate-specific metabolic pathways and adaptive mechanisms that underlie their competitive dominance remain poorly understood. Dietzia sp. CN-3, a salt-tolerant bacterium capable of utilizing both linear and branched alkane...
