Production of Tartrates by Cyanide-Mediated Dimerization of Glyoxylate: A Potential Abiotic Pathway to the Citric Acid Cycle
An abiotic formation of meso- and DL-tartrates in 80% yield via the cyanide-catalyzed dimerization of glyoxylate under alkaline conditions is demonstrated. A detailed mechanism for this conversion is proposed, supported by NMR evidence and (13)C-labeled reactions. Simple dehydration of tartrates to oxaloacetate and an ensuing decarboxylation to form pyruvate are known processes that provide a r...
متن کاملInactivation of isocitrate lyase leads to increased production of medium-chain-length poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) in Pseudomonas putida.
Medium-chain-length (mcl) poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) (PHAs) are storage polymers that are produced from various substrates and accumulate in Pseudomonas strains belonging to rRNA homology group I. In experiments aimed at increasing PHA production in Pseudomonas strains, we generated an mcl PHA-overproducing mutant of Pseudomonas putida KT2442 by transposon mutagenesis, in which the aceA gene was...
متن کاملProteomic analysis of oil mobilization in seed germination and postgermination development of Jatropha curcas.
To understand oil mobilization in germinating seeds, we performed ultrastructural observation and proteomic analysis of endosperm in germinating Jatropha curcas seeds. Results showed that the oil mobilization was initiated during germination, and then the oil was consumed for early seedling development. The significant change in abundance of 50 protein spots during germination indicated that se...
متن کاملSubstrates and oxygen dependent citric acid production by Yarrowia lipolytica: insights through transcriptome and fluxome analyses
BACKGROUND Unlike the well-studied backer yeast where catabolite repression represents a burden for mixed substrate fermentation, Yarrowia lipolytica, an oleaginous yeast, is recognized for its potential to produce single cell oils and citric acid from different feedstocks. These versatilities of Y. lipolytica with regards to substrate utilization make it an attractive host for biorefinery appl...
متن کاملIsocitrate lyase supplies precursors for hydrogen cyanide production in a cystic fibrosis isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonizes and can persist in the lungs of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients for decades. Adaptation of P. aeruginosa to the CF lung environment causes various genotypic and phenotypic alterations in the bacterium that facilitate persistence. We showed previously that isocitrate lyase (ICL) activity is constitutively upregulated in the P. aeruginosa CF isolate FRD1. We show he...
