ABSTRACT:
An isolated and purified Coenzyme A disulfide reductase (CoADR) is provided. Oligonucleotides encoding the CoADR, vectors and host cells containing such oligonucleotides are also provided. In addition, antibodies reactive with the CoADR are provided, as are methods of isolating the CoADR, producing recombinant CoADR, using CoADR for screening compounds for CoADR-modulating activity, and detecting organisms which produce CoADR a test sample. Methods for identifying a gene encoding a CoADR are also provided.
