Metaproteomic and gene expression analysis of interspecies interactions in a PAH‑degrading synthetic microbial consortium constructed with the key microbes of a natural consortium
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) impose adverse effects on the environment and human life. The use of synthetic microbial consortia is promising in bioremediation of contaminated sites with these pollutants. However, the design of consortia taking advantage of natural interactions has been po...

Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) impose adverse effects on the environment and human life. The use of synthetic microbial consortia is promising in bioremediation of contaminated sites with these pollutants. However, the design of consortia taking advantage of natural interactions has been poorly explored.

Metaproteomic and gene-expression analyses were applied to obtain a view of bacterial performance during phenanthrene removal.
