Four biodegradative plasmids controlling naphthalene catabolism by bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas are now known. The plasmids differ from each other in a number of properties, including in genetic systems determining the synthesis of enzymes involved in divergent pathways of the biological transformation of naphthalene. A new pathway of naphthalene catabolism through gentisic acid was shown earlier in our laboratory. However, the nature of the genetic control of the synthesis of enzymes of this pathway was not known. The results of an investigation of the genetic control of naphthalene catabolism through gentisic acid are presented in this report.
