Popis: An Acinetobacter sp. strain RFB1 was shown to be capable of degrading a wide range of cyano-metal complexes, simple cyanide salts and simple organic nitrile compounds. The enzymatic activity responsible for this degradation was located in an extracellular lipid complex. This complex could not be resolved into the constitutive components under standard conditions without loss of activity.
