Diauxic Growth of Propionibacterium shermanii

Effect of Aeration on Organic Acid Production by Propionibacterium shermanii

Propionibacteria have been reported as being oxygen sensitive bacteria. Nevertheless, in this work, we intend to show that Propionibacterium shermanii CDB 10014 is able to grow even at high volumetric oxygen transfer coefficients (KLa). Similar final cell concentrations were achieved in experiments at different KLa values, with increasing cell yield from 0.08 g/g cells in anaerobic con­ ditions...

Bacterial gene regulation in diauxic and non-diauxic growth.

When bacteria are grown in a batch culture containing a mixture of two growth-limiting substrates, they exhibit a rich spectrum of substrate consumption patterns including diauxic growth, simultaneous consumption, and bistable growth. In previous work, we showed that a minimal model accounting only for enzyme induction and dilution captures all the substrate consumption patterns [Narang, A., 19...

Steady state and exchange kinetics of pyruvate, phosphate dikinase from Propionibacterium shermanii.

Evidence is presented based on requirements for exchange in the partial reactions, initial velocity and exchange kinetics and product inhibition, that the pyruvate, phosphate dikinase reaction of propionibacteria occurs by a nonclassical Tri Uni Uni Ping Pong mechanism. The mechanism involves a pyrophosphoryl enzyme, a phosphoryl enzyme, and the free enzyme, and three functionally distinct and ...

Isolation and characterization of a pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase from Propionibacterium shermanii.

A pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase (pyrophosphate; D-fructose-6-phosphate-1-phosphotransferase) has been purified and characterized from extracts of Propionibacterium shermanii. The enzyme catalyzes the transfer of phosphate from pyrophosphate to fructose 6-phosphate to yield fructose-1,6-P2 and phosphate. This unique enzymatic activity was observed initially in Entamoeba histolytica...
