PcrB forms a periplasmic heterodimer with PcrA and comprises the active complex of perchlorate reductase. PcrC is a C-type cytochrome that connects the AB complex to the periplasmic membrane, allowing for electron shuffling. PcrD is predicted to be a molybdenum chaperone protein specific to assembling the pcrABC system.

Part Collection
Teams may use the parts in this collection to allow their chassis to reduce chlorite to chloride and oxygen, which might be useful for soil detoxification or O2 production where chlorite or perchlorate is present. For perchlorate reduction, the enzymes below must be used along with Perchlorate Reductase (see above) as that enzyme reduces ClO4- to ClO2-, which is the substrate that chlorite dismutase uses.The 4 chlorite dismutase coding sequences in this collection are from 4 different species of bacteria. Exeter iGEM 2018 has shown, using a Western blot, that all coding sequences can be expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3). As the four enzymes have different kinetic parameters, future teams can choose which enzymes best suits their specific chassis. Choosing the right enzyme, with the right kinetic parameters will allow teams to balance metabolic flux of intermediate substrates through pathways whilst avoiding overburdening cells with unnecessary enzyme expression.
