Elucidation of beta-oxidation pathways in Ralstonia eutropha H16 by examination of global gene expression.
Ralstonia eutropha H16 is capable of growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate production on plant oils and fatty acids. However, little is known about the triacylglycerol and fatty acid degradation pathways of this bacterium. We compare whole-cell gene expression levels of R. eutropha H16 during growth and polyhydroxyalkanoate production on trioleate and fructose. Trioleate is a triacylglycerol that ser...
متن کاملProduction of fatty acids in Ralstonia eutropha H16 by engineering β-oxidation and carbon storage
Ralstonia eutropha H16 is a facultatively autotrophic hydrogen-oxidizing bacterium capable of producing polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB)-based bioplastics. As PHB's physical properties may be improved by incorporation of medium-chain-length fatty acids (MCFAs), and MCFAs are valuable on their own as fuel and chemical intermediates, we engineered R. eutropha for MCFA production. Expression of UcFatB2, ...
متن کاملEssential role of the hprK gene in Ralstonia eutropha H16.
Ralstonia eutropha H16 possesses an incomplete phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP):sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) composed of EI, HPr, EIIA(Ntr) (PtsN) and EIIA(Man) (PtsM). We could show that in vitro the incomplete PTS phosphorylation cascade is partially functional. HPr becomes phosphorylated by PEP and EI, and transfers the phosphoryl group to EIIA(Ntr), but only extremely slowly to EIIA(Man)....
متن کاملNO-dependent transcriptional activation of gene expression in Ralstonia eutropha H16.
The sigma54-dependent transcriptional regulator NorR of Ralstonia eutropha H16 activates gene expression in response to nitric oxide (NO). The N-terminal domain of NorR is thought to be involved in signal perception. A C112S exchange within this domain abolished promoter activation by the mutated protein, indicating that Cys(112) is essential for the signalling mechanism of NorR. The DNA region...
متن کاملTranscriptional regulation of nitric oxide reduction in Ralstonia eutropha H16.
Nitric oxide reduction in Ralstonia eutropha H16 is catalysed by the quinol-dependent NO reductase NorB. norB and the adjacent norA form an operon that is controlled by the sigma(54)-dependent transcriptional activator NorR in response to NO. A NorR derivative containing MalE in place of the N-terminal domain binds to a 73 bp region upstream of norA that includes three copies of the putative up...
