Biodegradation with microorganisms is considered as an efficient strategy to remove the environmental pollutants. In this work, <i>Deinococcus actinosclerus</i> SJTR1 isolated from the wastewater was confirmed with great degradation capability to 17β-estradiol, one typical estrogen chemical. It could degrade nearly 90% of 17β-estradiol (10 mg/L) in 5 days and transform it into estrone; its degradation kinetics fitted for the first-order kinetic equation. The whole genome sequence of <i>D. actino ...[more]
