Abstract
) responsible for the detoxification of chlorimuron-ethyl by strain Chenggangzhangella methanolivorans CHL1 were identified, then cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). These key chlorimuron-ethyl-degrading enzymes are candidates for the construction of engineered bacteria to degrade this pesticide and enrich the resources for bioremediating environments polluted with sulfonylurea herbicides.
