Proteomics database of the OR culture and structural models of ORM2a "Magic" and "Nanopod" proteins

The Oil Refinery (OR) consortium is a model methanogenic enrichment culture for studying anaerobic benzene degradation. We integrated information from three OR proteomics experiments to help identify functional genes and corresponding enzymes implicated in anaerobic benzene activation.
This project contains two supplementary files for Toth et al. (2024). The first (File S1) is a proteomics database for the OR culture. File S2 contains AlphaFold 2 output files including predicted structures of 16 proteins of interest recovered with high certainty (>99% confidence) from the OR proteomes. File S3 contains AlphaFold 3 models of three enzyme complexes putatively involved in benzene activation and subsequent transformation steps yielding benzoyl-CoA.
