NEW CYTOCHROME P450 AND GENE ENCODING THE SAME

Title:

NEW CYTOCHROME P450 AND GENE ENCODING THE SAME

Document Type and Number:

Japanese Patent JP2002253248

Kind Code:

A

Abstract:

To provide a new gene capable of being utilized for decomposition of a recalcitrant compound exemplified by an endocrine disruptor such as dioxins, and consequently capable of being utilized for bioremediation of the environment.

This gene encoding a new family of cytochrome P450 is obtained from Ustilago. The base sequence of the gene is identified and the amino acid sequence is revealed. The host cell transformed by the recombinant DNA integrated with the cytochrome P450 gene produces the protein encoded by the gene.
