WOOSTER, Ohio, Aug. 22 (TNSres) -- The College of Wooster issued the following news:
Mark Snider, Robert E. Wilson Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at The College of Wooster, has identified the kinetic mechanism of a novel flavin monooxygenase, known as NicC. This enzyme plays a role in the degradation pathway in bacteria that allows the bacteria to remove pervasive contaminants from the soil ecosystem. The contaminants come from personal care products, . . .
