Dye-decolorizing peroxidase (DyP-type peroxidase) represents a group of heme-containing peroxidases able to decolour various organic dyes, most of which are xenobiotics. To identify and characterize a new DyP-type peroxidase (ZmDyP) from Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 (ATCC 31821), ZmDyP was amplified from the genomic DNA of Z. mobilis by PCR, and cloned into the Escherichia coli expression vector pET-21b(+). Alignment of the amino acid sequence of ZmDyP with other members of the DyP-type peroxidases revealed the presence of the active site conserved residues D149, R239, T254, F256 as well as the typical GXXDG motif, indicating that ZmDyP is a new member of the Dyp-type peroxidase family. pET-21b(+) containing ZmDyP gene was expressed in E. coli by IPTG induction. The expressed enzyme was purified by Ni-Chelating chromatography. SDS-PAGE analysis of the purified enzyme revealed a molecular weight of 36 kDa, whereas activity staining gave a molecular weight of 108 kDa, suggesting that the enzyme could be a trimer. In addition, ZmDyP is a heme-containing enzyme as shown by a typical heme absorption peak of Soret band. Moreover, ZmDyP showed high catalytic efficiency with 2, 2'-Azinobis-(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonate) as a substrate. These results enrich the pool of DyP-type peroxidases and lay a foundation for further studies.

D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
