Rhodococcus, a metabolically versatile actinobacteria which is
frequently found in the environment, has gained increasing interest
due to its potential biotechnological applications. This
Microbiology Monographs volume provides a thorough review of the
various aspects of the biochemistry, physiology and genetics of the
Genus Rhodococcus. Following an overview of its taxonomy, chapters
cover the structural aspects of rhodococcal cellular envelope,
genomes and plasmids, metabolic and catabolic pathways, such as
those of aromatic compounds, steroids and nitriles, and
desulfurization pathways, as well as the adaption to organic
solvents. Further reviews discuss applications of Rhodococcus in
the bioremediation of contaminated environments, in triacylglycerol
accumulation, and in phytopathogenic strategies, as well as the
potential of biosurfactants. A final chapter describes the sole
pathogenic Rhodococcus member, R. equi.
