NosZ from Dechloromonas denitrificans

Usage and Biology

NosZ-D.deniti is the Nitrous Oxide Reductase gene from Dechloromonas denitrificans , codon optimized for expression in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Nitrous oxide reductase is responsible for the reduction of nitrous oxide (N₂O) into water and dinitrogen (N₂) by acting as the catalysis of a copper-dependent two electron reduction of N₂O [1]. Which ensures that a bacterial host will not have a truncated nitrogen pathway, and will put harmless N₂ in the atmosphere instead of the greenhouse gas N₂O. Additionally this will case the bacterial host to uptake more nitrogen from its environment. Note NosZ-Denit is similar to NosZ-P.Stuzeri (BBa_K5078000).

Verification of Nosz-P.stu

Successful transformation of pL0-D.den into host bacterium can be determined by a restriction digestion with the restriction enzyme BbsI-HF, with expected band lengths being 2292bp and 2088bp. Additionally bacterial colonies should appear white in the present X-gal.

Structure simulation
