Investigating the genes for bile acid metabolism in nocardioform bacteria

Abstract

A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of' the Witwatersrand, in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Degree of Master of Science in the field ·of Biotechnology. February 1991.Nocardioform bacteria were studied for their ability to interconvert bile acids. From the studies of utilisation and resistance curves, the most suitable donor and recipient strains for complementary gene cloning, were Arthrobacter oxydans strain C1 and Rhodococcus erythropolis strain ATCC 4217-1 respectively.
