TodE
Designed biobrick is a composite part that contains a TetO promoter, RBS optimized by using Salis RBS calculator and codon optimized todE gene for E.Coli. TodE gene is part of a tod operon found in Pseudomonas Putida F1 species. TodE codes for TodE expresses Catechol 2-3 dioxygenase protein. It plays a major role in degradation of toluene. Specifically, todE degrades 3-methylcatechol, a highly toxic intermediate into HOD.
In pseudomonas putida species, HOD is aerobically metabolized through TCA cycle. Theoretically, a E.Coli MG1655 type bacteria containing todC1C2BADEF genes can degrade toluene through TCA cycle by using its own native enzymes.
