Phenylalanine hydroxylase
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylalanine_hydroxylase Phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH)] is the enzyme that determines the rate-limiting step in phenylalanine catabolism. Deficiency of this enzyme activity results in the autosomal recessive disorder phenylketonuria.#PAH1
As part of the Imperial 2009 iGEM E.ncapsulator project, E.coli was engineered to synthesise PAH to a tunable threshold, and successfully coat and protect it through the stomach, until release in the small intestine.
