Abstract:
This review is outlined in terms of the advances in mechanism about microbial degradation of phenanthrene. The degradation pathways of phenanthrene by bacteria and fungus , including aerobic and anaerobic conditions, are discussed respectively. Furthermore, both the enzymes involved in the reactions and the gene clusters encoding for the enzymes are summarized. The application of gene probe is introduced briefly. Based on the preliminary results of our laboratory, it is found that some questions should be taken into more consideration.
