Cloned (Comment) Organism
recombinant expression of enzyme PtFMO in Escherichia coli in presence of tryptophan leading to formation of indigo, coexpression of PtFMO with indoxyl beta-D-glucoside synthase (PtIGS), which catalyzes the glucosylation of indoxyl, brings about the formation of indican Persicaria tinctoria
