Tetracycline resistance protein from Bacteroides fragilis

Usage and Biology

Among three dominant tetracycline resistance mechanisms, enzymatic inactivation of tetracycline is a novel type of resistance rather than extensively studied mechanism, efflux and ribosomal protein, which shows great potential in antibiotics degradation. TetX gene is the only thoroughly studied resistance gene initially found in Bacteroides fragilis, coding for a flavin-dependent monooxygenase Tet X that modifies tetracyclines and requires NADPH, Mg2+, and O2 for activity.[1]

Degradation Mechanism

TetX monooxygenase catalyzes regioselective hydroxylation at carbon 11a of tetracyclines. In solutions of pH greater than 1, the product 11a-hydroxytetracycline can decomposes rapidly and non-enzymatically into products that are not easily identifiable. [1]


The monooxygenase reaction mechanism relies on the redox properties of FAD. After reduction to FADH2 by NADPH, the isoalloxazine binds molecular oxygen to form a hydroperoxide. FAD hydroperoxide is formed after substrate recognition, which subsequently direct substrate hydroxylation takes place.[2]
