| Research Abstract |
We investigated dynamism of genes involved in the degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), organomercurials, and chlorinated ethenes. We revealed that dynamic rearrangements of a conjugative bph-sal element in PCB-degrading bacteria, mer genes in mercury-resistant marine bacteria and dehalogenase genes in organohalide-respiring bacteria, and that various mobile elements were highly involved in the rearrangements.
