phsABC Generator
Summary
The (phsABC) gene from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium LT2 encodes thiosulfate reductase, which catalyzes the stoichiometric production of hydrogen sulfide and sulfite from thiosulfate for heavy metal removal by precipitation.
Experimental Results
In order to measure the phsABC conversion rate of NaS2O3 to H2S, the gene was inserted into the pBBRBB vector with a constitutive Plac promoter and transformed into K12 strain E. coli cells. As a control, pBBRBB::GFP was tested under the same conditions. The pBBRBB:phsABC K12 and pBBRBB::GFP K12 cells were grown in three test tubes each containing heavy metal tryptone medium as well as 3mM NaS2O3. A third set of test tubes were set up with the same contents except without cells as an additional negative control. After 24 hours, the tubes appeared as displayed in Figure ***. The exact amount of H2S present in each of three different sets of tubes was then measured by, with the numerical results displayed in Figure 4.
