The epoxyqueuosine reductase responsible, QueG, shares distant homology with the cobalamin-dependent reductive dehalogenase (RdhA), however the role played by cobalamin in QueG catalysis has remained elusive.

Other subtype B genes that have become pseudogenes in subtype A specimens and are associated with metabolic pathways are those encoding a haloacid dehalogenase (LBJ_RS17075) and a methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (LBJ_RS11290), although these genes appear to have putative paralogs with similar function in the genome.

In this work, the bacterial proteins of interest were tagged with a HaloTag, a modified haloalkane dehalogenase that covalently binds to synthetic Halo-ligands (haloalkanes) that can be fluorescently labeled, thus allowing more robust detection of bait protein binding to interactors present on the array.
