Abstract The moaABCDE operon of Escherichia coli encodes enzymes essential for the biosynthesis of the molybdenum cofactor (Moco). However, the role of the moaB gene within this operon has remained enigmatic. Here, we have investigated the effect of moaB defects on two phenotypes diagnostic for Moco-deficiency: chlorate-resistance and sensitivity to the base analog 6-N-hydroxylaminopurine (HAP). We found that transposon insertions in moaB caused partial Moco-deficiency associated with chlorate-resistance, but not for HAP-sensitivity. On the other hand, in-frame deletions of moaB, or moaB overexpression, had no effect on either phenotype. Our combined data are consistent with the lack of any role for MoaB in Moco biosynthesis in E. coli.
