FucO L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase

L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase is an iron-dependent group III dehydrogenase.

FucO is the gene that codes for L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase which is a NADH-linked, homodimer enzyme having the role of acting on furfural which is a toxic inhibitor of microbial fermentations causing cell wall and membrane damage, DNA breaks down and reduced enzymatic activities (Zheng, 2013; Liu, Ma & Song, 2009).

The enzyme catalyzes L-lactaldehyde and L-1,2- propanediol while dissimilating fucose in which acetaldehyde, ethylene glycerol, L-lactaldehyde and some more substances are used as substrates. Despite these, it takes an important role in furan reduction to its alcohol derivative (Wang et al. , 2011).

Effect of FucO overexpression in LY180 (Wang et al., 2011). The Cell Mass was observed in furfural containing medium. The FucO gene expressing L-1,2-propanediol oxidoreductase reduce the effect of furfural. The specific death rate of normal bacteria is observed to be bigger than the specific death rate of bacteria with FucO gene. Thus FucO shows to increase the tolerance of bacteria and lifespan.
