Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, PA5386 (cdhA)

Annotation Updates

Date	Description	Acknowledgements
May 15, 2009	New gene name: cdhA. New product name: CdhA, Carnitine dehydrogenase. New product name confidence: Class 1. New comment: Deletion of cdhA or transposon insertion into the coding sequence results in a strain unable to grow using L-carnitine as a sole carbon source. Deletion of cdhCA results in complete loss of carnitine dehydrogenase activity as measured by carnitine-dependent NADH formation from cytoplasmic extracts.. New function class: Carbon compound catabolism. New evidence reference (PMID): 19406895.	Matthew J. Wargo (University of Vermont College of Medicine) and Deborah A. Hogan (Dartmouth Medical School)
