Abstract

A novel group of Se-methyltransferases is presented. The genetic determinant, named mmtA, which revealed this group was isolated from selenite and selenate-resistant freshwater bacteria. E. coli expressing mmtA and grown with a Se supplement emitted dimethyl selenide (DMSe) and dimethyl diselenide (DMDSe). Phylogenetic analysis divided MmtA-like bacterial sequences into two clusters, one grouping MmtA with S- and O-methyltransferases, and one grouping UbiE C-methyltransferases. Se methylation by some of these MmtA phyletic neighbours was investigated. Copyright 2004 Elsevier B.V.
