Occurrence of a novel yeast enzyme, L-lysine epsilon-dehydrogenase, which catalyses the first step of lysine catabolism in Candida albicans.
The yeast Candida albicans is able to utilize L-lysine as the sole nitrogen and carbon source accompanied by intracellular accumulation of alpha-aminoadipate-delta-semialdehyde. A novel yeast amino acid dehydrogenase catalysing the oxidative deamination of the epsilon-group of L-lysine was found in this yeast. The enzyme, L-lysine epsilon-dehydrogenase, is strongly induced in cells grown on L-l...
متن کاملAntimicrobial, antioxidant, and antitumor activity of epsilon-poly-L-lysine and citral, alone or in combination
BACKGROUND Food safety is an important worldwide public health concern, and microbial contamination in foods not only leads to food deterioration and shelf life reduction but also results in economic losses and disease. OBJECTIVE The main aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of epsilon-poly-L-lysine (ε-PL) and citral combination against Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7...
متن کاملMalate dehydrogenase: distribution, function and properties.
Malate dehydrogenase (MDH) (EC 1.1.1.37) catalyzes the conversion of oxaloacetate and malate. This reaction is important in cellular metabolism, and it is coupled with easily detectable cofactor oxidation/reduction. It is a rather ubiquitous enzyme, for which several isoforms have been identified, differing in their subcellular localization and their specificity for the cofactor NAD or NADP. Th...
متن کاملGenome Sequence of Streptomyces albulus PD-1, a Productive Strain for Epsilon-Poly-l-Lysine and Poly-l-Diaminopropionic Acid
Streptomyces albulus PD-1, a productive strain for epsilon-poly-l-lysine and poly-l-diaminopropionic acid, was isolated from soils. We present the genome sequence of S. albulus PD-1, which may provide abundant information regarding the production of epsilon-poly-l-lysine and poly-l-diaminopropionic acid.
متن کاملInhibition of epsilon-poly-L-lysine biosynthesis in Streptomycetaceae bacteria by short-chain polyols.
Antimicrobial epsilon-poly-L-lysine (ePL) is secreted by Streptomycetaceae bacteria, and the mechanism of ePL biosynthesis remains to be elucidated. We previously reported that an unknown ePL derivative accumulates in the culture medium of ePL-producing bacteria when glycerol is added to the culture medium (Nishikawa and Ogawa, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 68:3575-3581, 2002). In this study, by us...
