Biochemical and Multi-Omics Approaches To Obtain Molecular Insights into the Catabolism of the Plasticizer Benzyl Butyl Phthalate in Rhodococcus sp. Strain PAE-6

was isolated that can also assimilate a number of other phthalate diesters of environmental concern. Various biochemical and multi-omics analyses revealed that the strain harbors all the required catabolic machinery for the degradation of the plasticizer and elucidated the inducible regulation of the associated catabolic genes and gene clusters.
