Formamidase (FOR)

The BBa_K2325000 contains a coding sequence of formamidase which catalyzes the conversion of formamide to ammonia.

Usage and Biology

Formamidase is an enzyme involved in the production of ammonia for providing nitrogen source for the engineering bacteria. This part has been constructed into expression vectors to modify the metabolic pathway of nitrogen in E.coli.
