Pyocyanin degradation by a tautomerizing demethylase inhibits Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms

The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces colorful redox-active metabolites called phenazines, which underpin biofilm development, virulence and clinical outcomes. Though phenazines exist in many forms, the best studied is pyocyanin. Here, we describe pyocyanin demethylase (PodA), a...
