| Abstract: | The previously described facultatively anaerobic microorganismEnterobacter sp. DG-6, which transforms methoxylated and hydroxylated monoaromatic compounds both aerobically and anaerobically, has been further investigated. The moles percent guanine plus cytosine in DNA has been determined. Two plasmids have been isolated and studied as related to the capability of the bacterium to degrade 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-cinnamic acid (ferulic acid). The anaerobic O-demethylation mechanism and the pathway of C1-compound oxidation are discussed. |
