Translational Unit for Chlorite Dismutase
Chlorite Dismutase is an enzyme which catalyzes the reduction of chlorite ions to oxygen gas and chloride ions. Cld(-SP) is a translational unit which lacks the original Chlorite Dismutase gene's putative signal peptide, and also has a polyhistidine tag appended on it for the purpose of protein purification. The activity of this enzyme can be observed as bubbling of a liquid culture when transformed cells are combined with compounds containing the chlorite oxyanion.
