Methanol-dependent Escherichia coli strains with a complete ribulose monophosphate cycle

Nature Communications, 2020
The engineering of methanol-dependent growth in Escherichia coli is challenging. Here, the authors predict and experimentally validate methanol-dependent strains with a complete RuMP cycle and high potential for the development of a methylotrophic ...

The structure of the gene for the large subunit of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase from spinach chloroplast DNA [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 1981
A cloned fragment of spinach chloroplast DNA carrying the gene for the large subunit of ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase has been analysed by electron microscopy of R-loops, by hybridization to Northern blots of chloroplast RNA, by S1 nuclease ...

Development of a selection system for the detection of L-ribose isomerase expressing mutants of Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2007
L-Arabinose isomerase (E.C. 5.3.1.14) catalyzes the reversible isomerization between L-arabinose and L-ribulose and is highly selective towards L-arabinose.

Inhibition of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase by substrate ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1983
Substrate ribulose bisphosphate is a potent and a weak inhibitor of the rate of CO2/Mg2+ activation in the carboxylase purified from spinach leaves and Rhodospirillum rubrum, respectively. At 2 degrees C, the concentration of ribulose bisphosphate required for 50% inhibition of the initial rate of CO2/Mg2+ activation was less than 0.4 microM for the ...

Bacterial Accumulation of Ribulose and Xylulose [PDF]

Agricultural and Biological Chemistry, 1967
Several bacteria capable of accumulating large amounts of unknown sugars in culture medium were isolated from natural sources. These bacteria were identified taxonomically as genera of Brevibacterium and Corynebacterium, respectively. The sugars accumulated were isolated by paperchromatography and they were identified as a mixture of D-ribulose and D ...

Ribulose Monophosphate Shunt Provides Nearly All Biomass and Energy Required for Growth of E. coli.

ACS Synthetic Biology, 2018
The ribulose monophosphate (RuMP) cycle is a highly efficient route for the assimilation of reduced one-carbon compounds. Despite considerable research, the RuMP cycle has not been fully implemented in model biotechnological organisms such as Escherichia

Despite slow catalysis and confused substrate specificity, all ribulose bisphosphate carboxylases may be nearly perfectly optimized.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2006
The cornerstone of autotrophy, the CO(2)-fixing enzyme, d-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco), is hamstrung by slow catalysis and confusion between CO(2) and O(2) as substrates, an "abominably perplexing" puzzle, in Darwin's ...

Metabolic engineering of the chloroplast genome reveals that the yeast ArDH gene confers enhanced tolerance to salinity and drought in plants

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Osmoprotectants stabilize proteins and membranes against the denaturing effect of high concentrations of salts and other harmful solutes. In yeast, arabitol dehydrogenase (ArDH) reduces D-ribulose to D-arabitol where D-ribulose is derived by ...

Enhancing Sesquiterpenoid Production from Methane via Synergy of the Methylerythritol Phosphate Pathway and a Short-Cut Route to 1-Deoxy-D-xylulose 5-Phosphate in Methanotrophic Bacteria

Microorganisms, 2021
Sesquiterpenoids are one of the most diverse classes of isoprenoids which exhibit numerous potentials in industrial biotechnology. The methanotrophs-based methane bioconversion is a promising approach for sustainable production of chemicals and fuels ...

The herbicidal natural product phosphonothrixin is an inhibitor of the riboflavin biosynthetic enzyme L-3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone-4-phosphate synthase. [PDF]

Pest Manag Sci
An enzyme involved in vitamin B2 biosynthesis, 3,4‐dihydroxy‐2‐butanone‐4‐phosphate synthase (DHBPS), was identified as the target of the natural product phosphonothrixin, representing a novel mode of action for herbicides. Abstract BACKGROUND In our ongoing search for new and environmentally friendly chemical entities that can control weeds via new ...
