Identification of a novel stress activated kinase in kidney and heart.

abstract：:The pathway employed for pentachlorophenol (PCP) degradation by an aerobic, chlorophenol-utilizing Flavobacterium sp. was initiated by conversion of PCP to tetrachloro-p-hydroquinone (TCH). 18O labelling experiments demonstrated that the first dechlorination, where a hydroxyl replaced the chlorine at PCP ring position...
