Application

Application Comment Organism
synthesis expression of PdmAB in Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, and other sphingomonads results in a functional enzyme. Coexpression of a putative [3Fe-4S]-type ferredoxin from Sphingomonas sp. strain RW1 greatly enhances the catalytic activity of PdmAB in Escherichia coli Sphingobium sp. YBL2

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function the pdmAB genes are responsible for the initial mono-N-demethylation of N,N-dimethyl-substituted phenylurea herbicides. PdmAB is the oxygenase component of a bacterial Rieske non-heme iron oxygenase system. A subunit PudmA disruption strain does not show the ability to degrade isoproturon and other N,N-dimethyl substituted phenylurea herbicides, but it can still degrade the known metabolites of isoproturon Sphingobium sp.
