The reductase component of the TOL plasmid encoded toluate dioxygenase was shown to immuno‐cross‐react with polyclonal antibodies raised against the chromosomally encoded benzoate dioxygenase reductase from Pseudomonas putida C‐1. Anti‐reductase antibodies did not cross‐react with any component of the benzene or naphthalene dioxygenases.
