Structure of Methylene-Tetrahydromethanopterin Dehydrogenase from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 [PDF]
Structure, 2002 NADP-dependent methylene-H(4)MPT dehydrogenase, MtdA, from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 catalyzes the dehydrogenation of methylene-tetrahydromethanopterin and methylene-tetrahydrofolate with NADP(+) as cosubstrate. The X-ray structure of MtdA with and without NADP bound was established at 1.9 A resolution. The enzyme is present as a homotrimer.

Characterization of the formyltransferase from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 2001 Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 possesses a formaldehyde‐oxidation pathway that involves enzymes with high sequence identity with enzymes from methanogenic and sulfate‐reducing archaea. Here we describe the purification and characterization of formylmethanofuran–tetrahydromethanopterin formyltransferase (Ftr), which catalyzes the reversible ...

Metabolic engineering of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 for 1-butanol production. [PDF]
Biotechnol Biofuels, 2014 Butanol is a promising next generation fuel and a bulk chemical precursor. Although clostridia are the primary industrial microbes for the fermentative production of 1-butanol, alternative engineered hosts have the potential to generate 1-butanol from alternative carbon feedstocks via synthetic metabolic pathways.

Genetic organization of methylamine utilization genes from Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1991 An isolated 5.2-kb fragment of Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 DNA was found to contain a gene cluster involved in methylamine utilization. Analysis of polypeptides synthesized in an Escherichia coli T7 expression system showed that five genes were present.

The methanol oxidation genes mxaFJGIR(S)ACKLD in Methylobacterium extorquens [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2006 MxaJ is a protein of unknown function encoded by mxaJ in the mxaFJGI operon. We have constructed a mxaJ mutant of M. extorquens with a deletion which does not affect transcription of downstream genes. It contained cytochrome cL (MxaG), but neither subunit of methanol dehydrogenase (MxaF and MxaI). MxaJ is probably involved in processing this enzyme. We

Transcriptional analysis of pqqD and study of the regulation of pyrroloquinoline quinone biosynthesis in Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 [PDF]
, 1995 Methanol dehydrogenase, the enzyme that oxidizes methanol to formaldehyde in gram-negative methylotrophs, contains the prosthetic group pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ).

Effective use of a horizontally-transferred pathway for dichloromethane catabolism requires post–transfer refinement [PDF]
, 2015 When microbes acquire new abilities through horizontal gene transfer, the genes and pathways must function under conditions with which they did not coevolve.
