General Information

General Information Comment Organism
metabolism the enzyme is involved in the styrene degradation pathway, overview Rhodococcus sp.
additional information in strain ST-10, which lacks a styrene oxide isomerase, styrene oxide is converted to phenylacetaldehyde by spontaneous chemical reaction. The strain accumulates styrene oxide as a metabolic intermediate. The produced phenylacetaldehyde is converted to phenylacetic acid in strain ST-10 as well as in strain ST-5 Rhodococcus sp.
