The gene organization of the phenol catabolic pathway of Pseudomonas CF600 has been investigated. This strain can grow on phenol and some methylated phenols by virtue of an inducible phenol hydroxylase and metacleavage pathway enzymes. The genes coding for these

Pseudomonas putida P35X (NCIB 9869) metabolizes phenol and monomethylphenols via a chromosomally encoded meta-cleavage pathway. We have recently described a 13.4-kb fragment of the chromosome that codes for the first eight genes of the catabolic pathway and a divergently transcribed
