Validation of the metabolic pathway of the alginate-derived monomer in Saccharophagus degradans 2-40 T by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry
摘要:
Marine macroalgae are potential resources for the sustainable production of biofuels and bio-based chemicals. Alginate, a major component of brown macroalgae, consists of two uronate monomers, which are further non-enzymatically converted to 4-deoxy-L-erythro-5-hexoseulose uronate (DEH). In several marine bacteria, DEH is known to be metabolized via three enzymatic steps, consisting of DEH reductase, 2-keto-3-deoxy-n-gluconate (KDG) kinase, and 2-keto-3-deoxy-phosphogluconate (KDPG) aldolase, which yields two glycolytic intermediates: D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and pyruvate. However, such functions of these enzymes for the DEH pathway have rarely been experimentally validated. In the present study, the DEH metabolic pathway was investigated in Saccharophagus degradans 2-40(T), a marine bacterium that utilizes alginate. Through in vitro tests assisted by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and gas chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry, the purified enzymes were functionally confirmed and annotated as dehR, kdgK, and kdpgA, respectively. In conclusion, we report the in vitro validation of the metabolic pathway of DEH monomerized from alginate. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
The present invention relates to a method and microbial host strain for converting a hexuronic acid to a hexaric acid. In particular, the invention relates to the con-version of D-galacturonic acid to meso-galactaric acid (mucic acid). The invention also concerns an isolated nucleotide sequence. According to the present method a microbial host strain genetically modified to express uronate dehydrogenase enzyme (EC 1.1.1.203) is contacted with a biomaterial comprising hexuronic acid and the con-version products are recovered. By using the recombinant microorganisms of the present invention it is possible to treat biomaterials comprising hexuronic acids and thereby decrease the amount of hexuronic acids released to the environment.

2-Keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate (KDPG) aldolase is a key enzyme in the Entner-Doudoroff pathway of bacteria. It catalyzes the reversible production of KDPG from pyruvate and D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate through a class I Schiff base mechanism. On the basis of aldolase mechanistic pathway, various pyruvate analogues bearing beta-diketo structures were designed and synthesized as potential inhibitors. Their capacity to inhibit aldolase catalyzed reaction by forming stabilized iminium ion or conjugated enamine were investigated by enzymatic kinetics and UV-vis difference spectroscopy. Depending of the substituent R (methyl or aromatic ring), a competitive or a slow-binding inhibition takes place. These results were examined on the basis of the three-dimensional structure of the enzyme. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A microbial route was explored for the synthesis of 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hex-2-ulosonic acid 6-phosphate (2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate, KDPG). Two strains of bacteria, Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 F34 (DSM 529) and Escherichia coli DF 71 (CGSC 4880), lacking in KDPG-aldolase activity were tested for excretion of KDPG. Using pyruvate and gluconate as carbon sources, Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 F34 accumulated and excreted 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hexulosonic acid 6-phosphate into the culture broth, while the E. coli strain, using pyruvate and glucuronate, failed. KDPG was isolated from the culture supernatant of Alcaligenes eutrophus H16 F34 in 78% yield and 5 g scale with respect to the consumed gluconate.
