tehB	BacMet ID: BAC0385 Code for: Enzyme Family: TehB family Sequence: FASTA Cross-database IDs: Link Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12) Location: Chromosome Compound: Tellurium (Te), Proflavin [class: Acridine] Description: S-adenosyl-L-methionine dependent methyltransferase tehB that catalyzes the methylation of tellurite and is responsible for tellurite resistance when present in high copy number. Can also methylate selenite and selenium dioxide. Is thus able to detoxify different chalcogens. Can not methylate arsenic compounds Length (amino acid): 197 Reference: Walter et al 1991; Pubmed- 2060788, Taylor et al. 1994; Pubmed- 8169225	Similar resistance genes in 'BacMet Predicted database'
