Bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) are widespread protein-based organelles composed of metabolic enzymes encapsulated within a protein shell. The function of MCPs is to optimize metabolic pathways by confining toxic and/or volatile pathway intermediates. A major class of MCPs, known as glycyl radical MCPs has only been partially characterized. Here, we show that uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 uses a glycyl radical MCP for 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PD) fermentation. Bioinformatic analyses identified a large gene cluster (named
