Type: | Family | Name: | 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoate hydrolase, BphD |
Description: | Members of this family are 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoate hydrolase, or HOPD hydrolase, the BphD protein of biphenyl degradation. BphD acts on the product of ring meta-cleavage by BphC. Many species carrying bphC and bphD are capable of degrading polychlorinated biphenyls as well as biphenyl itself. | Short Name: | HOPD_hydrolase_BphD |
