Uptake of α-ketoglutarate by citrate transporter CitP drives transamination in Lactococcus lactis.
Transamination is the first step in the conversion of amino acids into aroma compounds by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) used in food fermentations. The process is limited by the availability of α-ketoglutarate, which is the best α-keto donor for transaminases in LAB. Here, uptake of α-ketoglutarate by the citrate transporter CitP is reported. Cells of Lactococcus lactis IL1403 expressing CitP show...
متن کاملCitrate uptake in exchange with intermediates in the citrate metabolic pathway in Lactococcus lactis IL1403.
Carbohydrate/citrate cometabolism in Lactococcus lactis results in the formation of the flavor compound acetoin. Resting cells of strain IL1403(pFL3) rapidly consumed citrate while producing acetoin when substoichiometric concentrations of glucose or l-lactate were present. A proton motive force was generated by electrogenic exchange of citrate and lactate catalyzed by the citrate transporter C...
متن کاملCitrate, low pH and amino acid limitation induce citrate utilization in Lactococcus lactis biovar diacetylactis
In Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis, citrate transport is facilitated by the plasmid-encoded citrate permease (CitP). In this work, we analysed regulation of citrate utilization by pH, nutrient limitation and the presence of citrate at four different levels: (i) plasmid copy number, (ii) citP transcription, (iii) citP mRNA processing and (iv) citrate utilization capacity. C...
متن کاملContribution of citrate metabolism to the growth of Lactococcus lactis CRL264 at low pH.
Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis biovar diacetylactis CRL264 is a natural strain isolated from cheese (F. Sesma, D. Gardiol, A. P. de Ruiz Holgado, and D. de Mendoza, Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 56:2099-2103, 1990). The effect of citrate on the growth parameters at a very acidic pH value was studied with this strain and with derivatives whose citrate uptake capacity was genetically manipulated. T...
متن کاملSubstrate specificity of the citrate transporter CitP of Lactococcus lactis.
The citrate transporter CitP of lactic acid bacteria catalyzes electrogenic precursor-product exchange of citrate versus L-lactate during citrate-glucose cometabolism. In the absence of sugar, L-lactate is replaced by the metabolic intermediates/end products pyruvate, α-acetolactate, and acetate. In this study, the binding and translocation properties of CitP were analyzed systematically for a ...
