Part:BBa_I15008
heme oxygenase (ho1) from Synechocystis
One of two requisite genes required for the biosynthesis of phycocyanobilin from heme.
Usage and Biology
ho1 oxidizes the heme group using a ferredoxin cofactor, generating biliverdin IXalpha and representing the first of two steps in phycocyanobilin (PCB) biosynthesis. PCB associates with Cph8, creating a light responsive protein complex. Functions in tandem with BBa_I15009 for PCB biosynthesis. PCB then associates with Part:BBa_I15010, a light responsive Cph8/EnvZ fusion protein.
Additional Supplements
The data below is updated by TJU_China of iGEM 2017.
The original part has a barcode after coding sequence. So we submit a new part Part:BBa_K2328062 (without the barcode). But we will upload all the data and infomation in both pages.
