Improved p-hydroxybenzoate production by engineered Pseudomonas putida S12 by using a mixed-substrate feeding strategy [PDF]
, 2011 The key precursors for p-hydroxybenzoate production by engineered Pseudomonas putida S12 are phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and erythrose-4-phosphate (E4P), for which the pentose phosphate (PP) pathway is an important source.

Arthrobacter
Biochemical Journal, 1993 The pattern and kinetics of partial proteolysis of Arthrobacter D-xylose isomerase tetramer was studied in order to determine the flexibility of surface loops that may control its stability. It was completely resistant to trypsin, chymotrypsin and elastase at 37 degrees C, but thermolysin cleaved specifically and quantitatively at Thr-347-Leu-348 ...
