Project description:Paenarthrobacter nicotinovorans pAO1 is a nicotine degrading microorganism that shows promising applications in converting nicotine-containing waste into useful green chemicals. Its biotechnological applications are nevertheless hampered by the lack of knowledge and tools to perform genetic and metabolic engineering. The objective of the work is to provide the first transcriptome of the strain and is a second step in our envisioned complete omics characterization of nicotine metabolism in P. nicotinovorans ATCC 49919. Acknowledgements. This work was supported by a grant of the Romanian Ministry of Education and Research, CNCS - UEFISCDI, project number PN-III-P4-ID-PCE-2020-0656, within PNCDI III.
