Clostridum propionicum propionate CoA transferase

This is the DNA coding for the enzyme propionate CoA transferase from Clostridum propionicum. The enzyme normally catalyzes the reaction: acetyl-CoA + propanoate <--> acetate + propanoyl-CoA. This mutated sequence has four point mutations and one amino acid substitution (compared to the wild type enzyme) in order to produce (D)-Lactyl-CoA.
We used this enzyme as a the first enzyme in the pathway to create PLA or Polylactic acid. To read about our project [http://2013.igem.org/Team:Yale/Project_Overview click here]
