PhzM (source code)

= PhzM
{c}

A phenazine-modifying methyltransferase participating in pyocyanin <biosynthesis>.

Together with <PhzS>, it helps convert a core phenazine product into pyocyanin in <Pseudomonas aeruginosa>. Changes in a modifying step can alter the mixture of final products even when core <phenazine biosynthesis> remains active. <Functional Analysis of Genes for Biosynthesis of Pyocyanin and Phenazine-1-Carboxamide from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 by Dmitri V.
