Abstract: A number of species within the Fusobacteriaceae family of Gram-negative bacteria uniquely encode for an ornithine decarboxylase/arginase (ODA) that ostensibly channels l-ornithine generated by hydrolysis of l-arginine to putrescine formation. However, two aspartate residues required… read more here.
