In Helicobacter pylori, LuxS is a key enzyme in cysteine provision through a reverse transsulfuration pathway.
In many bacteria, LuxS functions as a quorum-sensing molecule synthase. However, it also has a second, more central metabolic function in the activated methyl cycle (AMC), which generates the S-adenosylmethionine required by methyltransferases and recycles the product via methionine. Helicobacter pylori lacks an enzyme catalyzing homocysteine-to-methionine conversion, rendering the AMC incomple...
متن کاملTryptophan biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: control of the flux through the pathway.
Enzyme derepression and feedback inhibition of the first enzyme are the regulatory mechanisms demonstrated for the tryptophan pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The relative contributions of the two mechanisms to the control of the flux through the pathway in vivo were analyzed by (i) measuring feedback inhibition of anthranilate synthase in vivo, (ii) determining the effect of regulatory mut...
متن کاملThree-pathway combination for glutathione biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
BACKGROUND Glutathione (GSH), a pivotal non-protein thiol, can be biosynthesized through three pathways in different organisms: (1) two consecutive enzymatic reactions catalyzed by γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (Gsh1 or GshA) and glutathione synthetase (Gsh2 or GshB); (2) a bifunctional γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase/glutathione synthetase (GshF); (3) an alternative condensation of γ-glutamyl ph...
متن کاملNGC 488 : has its massive bulge been built up by minor mergers ?
Using recent observations of the kinematics of the disk stars the dynamical state of the disk of NGC488 is discussed. The disk is shown to be dynamically ‘cool’, so that NGC488 cannot have experienced many – even minor – mergers in the past.
متن کاملBiosynthesis of natural flavanones in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
A four-step flavanone biosynthetic pathway was constructed and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The recombinant yeast strain was fed with phenylpropanoid acids and produced the flavanones naringenin and pinocembrin 62 and 22 times more efficiently compared to previously reported recombinant prokaryotic strains. Microbial biosynthesis of the flavanone eriodictyol was also achieved.
