expression of all three components (cymMBA) in Escherichia coli leads to p-cymene methyl group hydroxylation, while expression of cymM and cymA along with the partially truncated cymB gene shows an 85% decrease in the hydroxylation capacity. The CymM gene product shows similarity to integral-membrane di-iron enzymes, while that CymB shows no significant similarity to other known proteins
