THE COUPSTU AND TARPQM TRANSPORTERS IN RHODOPSEUDOMONAS PALUSTRIS: REDUNDANT, PROMISCUOUS UPTAKE SYSTEMS FOR LIGNIN-DERIVED AROMATIC SUBSTRATES.

The CouPSTU and TarPQM transporters in Rhodopseudomonas palustris: redundant, promiscuous uptake systems for lignin-derived aromatic substrates.

The biodegradation of lignin, one of the most abundant carbon compounds on Earth, has important biotechnological applications in the derivation of useful products from lignocellulosic wastes.The purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas palustris is able to grow photoheterotrophically under anaerobic conditions on a range of phenylpropeneoid
