Pentose metabolism in Mycobacterium smegmatis: comparison of L-arabinose isomerases induced by L-arabinose and D-galactose.
D-Galactose, which did not serve as a growth substrate, was found to induce an L-arabinose isomerase of similar properties to the L-arabinose-induced L-arabinose isomerase. In both cases the pH profiles, pH stability, optimum temperature, heat stability, substrate specificity, metal ion requirements, mobility on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and kinetic properties of the induced isomerase...
متن کاملPentose Metabolism in Bacteria
That the practice of medicine in general may be a trying experience under central military control is well known to all who have experienced it. Lieutenant Colonel John L. Yates summarized this aspect of the situation succinctly in the following words: "Civil surgeons can and should prepare themselves not merely to give professional services but to give them under the restrictions of military m...
متن کاملPentose metabolism in wheat seedlings.
Plants contain large quantities of pentoses, chiefly xylose and L-arabinose, which exist in combined form in polysaccharides such as hemicelluloses or gums. Free pentose sugars are not encountered in plants in any significant amounts. Comparatively little is known about pentose metabolism in plants. Earlier experiments, in which plants were infiltrated with hexose sugars, such as glucose, fruct...
متن کاملUnderstanding Functional Roles of Native Pentose-Specific Transporters for Activating Dormant Pentose Metabolism in Yarrowia lipolytica.
Pentoses, including xylose and arabinose, are the second most prevalent sugars in lignocellulosic biomass that can be harnessed for biological conversion. Although Yarrowia lipolytica has emerged as a promising industrial microorganism for production of high-value chemicals and biofuels, its native pentose metabolism is poorly understood. Our previous study demonstrated that Y. lipolytica (ATCC...
متن کاملThe metabolism of hexose and pentose phosphates in higher plants.
The pathway of carbohydrate degradation, which begins with the action of G-6-P dehydrogenase’ on G-6-P, has been studied by a number of workers (l-9). Their results have shown the operation of this scheme in a variety of tissues (yeast, red blood cells, and mammalian liver). The existence of G-6-P dehydrogenase in various seeds (10) suggests the occurrence of this system in higher plants. The p...
