Abstract excerpt
Here, the PduX enzyme of Salmonella enterica is shown to be an L-threonine kinase used for the de novo synthesis of coenzyme B(12) and the assimilation of cobyric acid (Cby). PduX with a C-terminal His tag (PduX-His(6)) was produced at high levels in Escherichia coli, purified by nickel affinity chromatography, and partially characterized. (31)P NMR spectroscopy established that purified PduX-His(6) catalyzed the...
