چکیده

The relative significance of the pathways for the conversion of d-fructose to d-fructose 1,6-diphosphate via d-fructose 1-phosphate or d-fructose 6-phosphate in Aerobacter aerogenes PRL-R3 was assessed by observing growth patterns of mutants lacking either d-fructose 6-phosphate kinase or d-fructose 1,6-diphosphatase. The mutant lacking d-fructose 6-phosphate kinase grew well on d-fructose or glycerol but not on d-glucose, whereas the mutant lacking d-fructose 1,6-diphosphatase grew on d-glucose but not on d-fructose or glycerol. The data indicate that the pathway of d-fructose metabolism is primarily through d-fructose 1-phosphate rather than d-fructose 6-phosphate.

Phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent formation of D-fructose 1-phosphate by a four-component phosphotransferase system.

Fructose' is metabolized in Aerobacter aerogenes primarily through the pathway: fructose -fructose-1-P -. fructose-1,6-P. Previous evidence for this pathway was the detection of an inducible fructose-i-P kinase2, I and the demonstration that a mutant lacking frustose-6-P kinase grew well on fructose but not on glucose, whereas a mutant lacking fructose 1,6-diphosphatase grew on glucose but not ...

Metabolism of D-fructose by Arthrobacter pyridinolis.

Previous studies showed that Arthrobacter pyridinolis can transport and utilize d-glucose only after prior growth on certain Krebs cycle intermediates. In contrast, we found that d-fructose was taken up and metabolized by A. pyridinolis without special prior conditions of growth. d-Fructose was first converted to d-fructose-1-phosphate by a phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP):D-fructose phosphotransferas...

Pathway of L-sorbose metabolism in Aerobacter aerogenes.

The pathway of L-sorbose metabolism in Aerobacter aerogenes was determined to be: L-sorbose ---f L-sorbose l-phosphate ---f D-glucitol 6-phosphate -+ D-fructose 6-phosphate. Phosphorylation of L-sorbose at C-l is mediated by a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system, whereas r,-sorbose l-phosphate reduction and D-glucitol 6-phosphate oxidation are mediated by pyridine-nucleotide...

Inhibition of bovine hepatic fructose-1,6-diphosphatase by substrate analogs.

Purified bovine hepatic fructose-1,6-diphosphatase, which exhibits maximal activity at neutral pH, is competitively inhibited by several analogs of its substrate, fructose 1,6-diphosphate. These include glucose 1,6-diphosphate (Ki = 9.4 X 10(-5) M), hexitol 1,6-diphosphate (Ki = 2.3 X 10(-4) M), and 2,5-anhydro-D-mannitol 1,6-diphosphate (Ki = 3.3 X 10(-8) M), and 2,5-anhydro-D-glucitol 1,6-dip...

D-Mannitol l-Phosphate Dehydrogenase and D-Sorbitol 6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase in Aerobacter aerogenes”

n-Mannitol has been used as a carbon source for the growth of many microorganisms. Some bacteria contain diphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent dehydrogenases that will oxidize n-mannitol to n-fructose at the nonphosphorylated level (2-5). On the other hand, Wolff and Kaplan (6, 7) have reported the presence of a diphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent n-mannitol l-phosphate dehydrogenase that o...
