Brief introduction in RdhANP

RdhANP is a native protein of Nitratireducror pacificus pht-3B. It is codon-optimized for operated and expression in Bacillus magaterium. RdhANP can catalyze the reduction of ortho-halogenated phenolic compound, which endows it with biological dehalogenation function. Different from other reductive proteins that are membrane-associated and oxygen-sensitive in their family, RdhANP is a soluble cytoplasmic one and oxygen-tolerant, which is fairly good for heterologous expression in other chassis. However, this enzyme displays a strict requirement for o-halogenated phenolic substrates and B12 cofactor; it also should under reductive condition using either reduced methyl viologen or NADPH.
