  • defective in biofilm formation, this can be suppressed by the addition of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate to the medium PubMed
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • (2S,3S)-2,3-dihydroxy-2,3-dihydrobenzoate + NAD+ --> 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate + H+ + NADH (according to UniProt)
  • Protein family

    Structure

  • 2FWM (from E. coli, 42% identity) PubMed
  • Localization

  • cytoplasm (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Expression and Regulation

  • Kre: repression, in Kre regulon
  • Regulation

  • induced by iron starvation (second wave to allow iron scavenging from the environment) (Fur) PubMed
  • expression of the operon is strongly induced at the beginning of biofilm formation PubMed
