Detoxification of Indole by an Indole-Induced Flavoprotein Oxygenase from Acinetobacter baumannii

Indole, a derivative of the amino acid tryptophan, is a toxic signaling molecule, which can inhibit bacterial growth. To overcome indole-induced toxicity, many bacteria have developed enzymatic defense systems to convert indole to non-toxic, water-insoluble indigo. We previously demonstrated that, l...
