Vitamin B6 biosynthesis in higher plants.
Vitamin B6 is an essential metabolite in all organisms. It can act as a coenzyme for numerous metabolic enzymes and has recently been shown to be a potent antioxidant. Plants and microorganisms have a de novo biosynthetic pathway for vitamin B6, but animals must obtain it from dietary sources. In Escherichia coli, it is known that the vitamin is derived from deoxyxylulose 5-phosphate (an interm...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of vitamin B6 by bacteria.
The biosynthesis and control of vitamin B6 in bacteria could be studied more easily if an organism which produced large amounts of this family of compounds could be found. Unfortunately, the measurements of bacterial vitamin B6 that have been reported have often failed to include the total extracellular vitamin B6, and thus they do not adequately reflect the total vitamin B6 in the whole cultur...
متن کاملLysine relay mechanism coordinates intermediate transfer in vitamin B6 biosynthesis.
Substrate channeling has emerged as a common mechanism for enzymatic intermediate transfer. A conspicuous gap in knowledge concerns the use of covalent lysine imines in the transfer of carbonyl-group-containing intermediates, despite their wideuse in enzymatic catalysis. Here we show how imine chemistry operates in the transfer of covalent intermediates in pyridoxal 5'-phosphate biosynthesis by...

متن کاملVitamin B6 and arteriosclerosis.
In 1949, Rinehart and Greenberg reported that marked arteriosclerosis occurs in vitamin-B6-deficient monkeys. The present study investigates the relationship between vitamin B6 and arteriosclerosis and summarizes the results. I found that thrombogenesis, disorder of collagen metabolism and production of free radicals may be the processes that cause arteriosclerosis in human and experimental ani...
