Protein Reduces Uranium (VI) to Uranium (IV)
| Types | DnaRegion |
| Roles | Coding CDS |
Description
This basic part provides "an isolated polypeptide that is responsible for the reduction of uranium (VI), in a source of uranium (VI), to uranium (IV.The isolated polypeptide is characterized in that it is a homogenous protein, having a molecular mass of 70 kDa, as shown by SDS-PAGE gel analysis.
The invention further provides for the isolated polypeptide to be a peptide ABC transporter, peptide-binding protein, as revealed by NCBI BLASTP analysis.
The Applicant believes that the isolated polypeptide identified herein is capable of performing more than one function, namely that of a peptide ABC transporter, peptide-binding protein and that of uranium reductase. Such proteins are commonly referred to in the art as ???moonlighting proteins???."
