Phenol-induced proteins of Thauera aromatica

摘要

This invention pertains to genes coding for phenol-induced proteins Five phenol-induced proteins isolated from Thauera aromatica. Three dominant phenol-induced proteins called F1, F2, and F3 respecitively were purified and sequenced to obtain the enzyme(s) that catalyze the 14CO2:4-hydroxybenzoate isotope exchange reaction and the carboxylation of phenylphosphate. The N-terminal amino acid sequences of these proteins as well as the N-terminus of the phenol-induced proteins (F4 and F5) were also determined.
