Screening for transformants carrying pheA and pheB. Transformants were spread on LB plates containing 1 mM phenol, 50 μg of ampicillin per ml, and 12.5 μg of tetracycline per ml and incubated overnight at 37° C. Colonies that became yellow (as a result of 2-hydroxymuconic semialdehyde) following spraying of a 0.1% of catechol solution were patched on LB plates containing 1 mM phenol. Colonies in which the yellow compound formed during growth without catechol addition were retained as putative carriers of both pheA and pheB.
