Pseudomonas sp. DJ77로부터 전보에서 클로닝한 pHENX7의 하류방향으로 약 3kb 정도를 포함하는 pYCS500을 클로닝하였다. PYCS500의 제한효소지도를 작성하고 부분적으로 염기서열을 분석한 결과 465 bp의 HindIII-ClaI절편에서 282 bp로 이루어진 하나의 open reading frame(ORF)을 발견하였다. phnM으로 명명된 이 ORF는 93개의 아미노산으로 구성된 polypeptide를 암호화하고 있었으며 계산된 분자량은 10,008 Da이었다. PhnM은 NahT, XylT, DmpQ, AtdS, PhlG, PhhQ, TbuW 등 plant-type ferredoxin 형태의 단백질과 37.7%-53.9%의 상동성을 나타내었으며 이들이 공통적으로 가지고 있는 motif가 일치하였다.

Benzaldehyde dehydrogenase (BZDH), an enzyme involved in the degradation of toluene and xylenes, is encoded by the phnN gene of Pseudomonas sp. strain DJ77. We determined the nucleotide sequence of a DNA fragment of 1,803 base pairs which included the phnN gene. The fragment contained an open reading frame of 1,506 base pairs to accommodate th 55 kDa sized enzyme encoding BZDH. The enzyme efficiently oxidized benzaldehyde, salicylaldehyde, m-tolualdehyde and ps-tolualdehyde.

$\^$31/ P-NMR experiment was performed to detect phophonates (Pn) utilization and degradation in the several different C-P lyase mutants of E. coli and in E. aerogenes and the recombinants. The relative peak intensity (RPI) for the standard samples of 0.5 mM methylphosphonate (MPn) and 1.0 mM aminoethylphosphonate in glucose-MOPS medium showed 0.5 : 1.0 ratio. In the case of BW14329 (.DELTA.phnC-P, .delta.phoA), RPI did not change significantly after 24 hrs culturing, which means it nearly could not utilize Pn. In vivo $\^$31/ P-NMR spectrum of E. aerogens (BWKL 16627) during 3 hrs starvation showed two intense peaks at 0-2 ppm and at near-10 ppm which indicate intracellular orthophosphate (Pi) and pyrophosphate (PPi), respectively. Both of them might be released by degradation of inorganic polyphosphate pool. When MPn is supplied to the medium as an unique P source, Pi content in the cell has the constant, but PPi seems to be slightly decreased. Recombinants (BWKL 16954) grew slower than E. aerogenes in the glucose-MOPS media with various P sources. In vivo $\^$31/ P-NMR spectrum of recombinant did not show any intense signal in the cell. Surprisingly, under the cultivation adding with MPn, a few intense peaks in the region of Pi AND phospate monoester were detected.
