Phosphorylation Due to the Oxidation of Succinic Acid by Cell-free Extracts of Escherichia Coli
نویسندگان
چکیده
Esterification of inorganic phosphate accompanies the oxidation of succinic acid by cell-free extracts of E. coli. Inorganic phosphate appears to be an essential requirement for the dehydrogenation of the C(4)-dicarboxylic acid.

In a previous paper (1) evidence was given to show that inorganic phosphate is esterified when succinate is incubated aerobically with cell-free extracts of Escherichia coli in the presence of inorganic phosphate. Based upon residual succinate determinations and upon the theoretical oxygen uptake for oxidation to fumarate, the data have been interpreted to mean that phosphorylation of inorganic...
متن کاملImproved succinic acid production in the anaerobic culture of an Escherichia coli pflB ldhA double mutant as a result of enhanced anaplerotic activities in the preceding aerobic culture.
Escherichia coli NZN111 is a pflB ldhA double mutant which loses its ability to ferment glucose anaerobically due to redox imbalance. In this study, two-stage culture of NZN111 was carried out for succinic acid production. It was found that when NZN111 was aerobically cultured on acetate, it regained the ability to ferment glucose with succinic acid as the major product in subsequent anaerobic ...

متن کاملEffect of growth phase feeding strategies on succinate production by metabolically engineered Escherichia coli.
Aerobic growth conditions significantly influenced anaerobic succinate production in two-stage fermentation by Escherichia coli AFP111 with knockouts in rpoS, pflAB, ldhA, and ptsG genes. At a low cell growth rate limited by glucose, enzymes involved in the reductive arm of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the glyoxylate shunt showed elevated activities, providing AFP111 with intracellular redo...
