AccessionGenProp0241
Namephosphonate catabolism
TypeMETAPATH
DescriptionThe capability to degrade phosphonates is believed to consist minimally of a system for transporting phosphonate compounds (those with carbon-PO3 linkages) coupled with a pathway for the hydrolysis of such bonds. Two classes of system are known, those that handle broad classes of phosphonate compounds and those that handle specific molecules. Genomes with evidence for either system will be assigned the YES state for this property.
