ability to reduce nitroaromatic compounds, enzyme demonstrates type I and type II hydride transferase activity and reduced the nitro groups of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene to hydroxylaminodinitrotoluene derivatives. The condensations of the primary products of type I and type II hydride transferases react with each other to yield diarylamines and nitrite, the latter can be further reduced to ammonium and serves as a nitrogen source for microorganisms in vivo

Vmax is denoted with 112 micromol/min/mg protein, XenB exhibits the highest Vmax values and the most favorable Vmax/Km relationship for 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene compared to those of the other active xenobiotic reductases of Pseudomonas putida KT2440
xenB gene is amplified using appropriate primers with BamHI and HindIII sites and Pseudomonas putida KT2440 chromosomal DNA as a template. After digestion with restriction enzymes, the PCR product is ligated into the pET28b(+) vector. Resulting plasmid contains the coding sequence in frame with a DNA sequence encoding a His-tag, which resulted in a hexahistidine tail. For protein-His6 expression, plasmid is transformed into Escherichia coli BL21.
