Nutritional complementation of oxidative glucose metabolism in Escherichia coli via pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent glucose dehydrogenase and the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
Two glucose-negative Escherichia coli mutants (ZSC113 and DF214) were unable to grow on glucose as the sole carbon source unless supplemented with pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ). PQQ is the cofactor for the periplasmic enzyme glucose dehydrogenase, which converts glucose to gluconate. Aerobically, E. coli ZSC113 grew on glucose plus PQQ with a generation time of 65 min, a generation time about the same as that for wild-type E. coli in a defined glucose-salts medium. Thus, for E. coli ZSC113 the Enter-Doudoroff pathway was fully able to replace the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway. In the presence of 5% sodium dodecyl sulfate, PQQ no longer acted as a growth factor. Sodium dodecyl sulfate inhibited the formation of gluconate from glucose but not gluconate metabolism. Adaptation to PQQ-dependent growth exhibited long lag periods, except under low-phosphate conditions, in which the PhoE porin would be expressed. We suggest that E. coli has maintained the apoenzyme for glucose dehydrogenase and the Entner-Doudoroff pathway as adaptations to an aerobic, low-phosphate, and low-detergent aquatic environment. 相似文献

The Entner-Doudoroff pathway was shown to be induced for oxidative glucose metabolism when Escherichia coli was provided with the periplasmic glucose dehydrogenase cofactor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ). Induction of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway by glucose plus PQQ was established both genetically and biochemically and was shown to occur in glucose transport mutants, as well as in wild-type E. coli. These data complete the body of evidence that proves the existence of a pathway for oxidative glucose metabolism in E. coli. PQQ-dependent oxidative glucose metabolism provides a metabolic branch point in the periplasm; the choices are either oxidation to gluconate followed by induction of the Entner-Doudoroff pathway or phosphotransferase-mediated transport. The oxidative glucose pathway might be important for survival of enteric bacteria in aerobic, low-phosphate, aquatic environments. 相似文献

Reconstitution of pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent D-glucose oxidase respiratory chain of Escherichia coli with cytochrome o oxidase. 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0 下载免费PDF全文
D-Glucose dehydrogenase is a pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent primary dehydrogenase linked to the respiratory chain of a wide variety of bacteria. The enzyme exists in the membranes of Escherichia coli, mainly as an apoenzyme which can be activated by the addition of pyrroloquinoline quinone and magnesium. Thus, membrane vesicles of E. coli can oxidize D-glucose to gluconate and generate an electrochemical proton gradient in the presence of pyrroloquinoline quinone. The D-glucose oxidase-respiratory chain was reconstituted into proteoliposomes, which consisted of two proteins purified from E. coli membranes, D-glucose dehydrogenase and cytochrome o oxidase, and E. coli phospholipids containing ubiquinone 8. The electron transfer rate during D-glucose oxidation and the membrane potential generation in the reconstituted proteoliposomes were almost the same as those observed in the membrane vesicles when pyrroloquinoline quinone was added. The results demonstrate that the quinoprotein, D-glucose dehydrogenase, can reduce ubiquinone 8 directly within phospholipid bilayer and that the D-glucose oxidase system of E. coli has a relatively simple respiratory chain consisting of primary dehydrogenase, ubiquinone 8, and a terminal oxidase. 相似文献

Several mutants of quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) in Escherichia coli, located around its cofactor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), were constructed by site-specific mutagenesis and characterized by enzymatic and kinetic analyses. Of these, critical mutants were further characterized after purification or by different amino acid substitutions. H262A mutant showed reduced affinities both for glucose and PQQ without significant effect on glucose oxidase activity, indicating that His-262 occurs very close to PQQ and glucose, but is not the electron acceptor from PQQH(2). W404A and W404F showed pronounced reductions of affinity for PQQ, and the latter rather than the former had equivalent glucose oxidase activity to the wild type, suggesting that Trp-404 may be a support for PQQ and important for the positioning of PQQ. D466N, D466E, and K493A showed very low glucose oxidase activities without influence on the affinity for PQQ. Judging from the enzyme activities of D466E and K493A, as well as their absorption spectra of PQQ during glucose oxidation, we conclude that Asp-466 initiates glucose oxidation reaction by abstraction of a proton from glucose and Lys-493 is involved in electron transfer from PQQH(2). 相似文献

The coupling of membrane-bound glucose dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.17) to the respiratory chain has been studied in whole cells, cell-free extracts, and membrane vesicles of gram-negative bacteria. Several Escherichia coli strains synthesized glucose dehydrogenase apoenzyme which could be activated by the prosthetic group pyrrolo-quinoline quinone. The synthesis of the glucose dehydrogenase apoenzyme was independent of the presence of glucose in the growth medium. Membrane vesicles of E. coli, grown on glucose or succinate, oxidized glucose to gluconate in the presence of pyrrolo-quinoline quinone. This oxidation led to the generation of a proton motive force which supplied the driving force for uptake of lactose, alanine, and glutamate. Reconstitution of glucose dehydrogenase with limiting amounts of pyrrolo-quinoline quinone allowed manipulation of the rate of electron transfer in membrane vesicles and whole cells. At saturating levels of pyrrolo-quinoline quinone, glucose was the most effective electron donor in E. coli, and glucose oxidation supported secondary transport at even higher rates than oxidation of reduced phenazine methosulfate. Apoenzyme of pyrrolo-quinoline quinone-dependent glucose dehydrogenases with similar properties as the E. coli enzyme were found in Acinetobacter calcoaceticus (var. lwoffi) grown aerobically on acetate and in Pseudomonas aeruginosa grown anaerobically on glucose and nitrate. 相似文献

Pyrroloquinoline quinone‐dependent glucose dehydrogenase (EC1.1.5.2, PQQGDH) has attracted progressive attention due to its application in glucose detection in clinic diagnosis and industrial bioprocess controls. To satisfy its increasing demand, improvement of PQQGDH production derived from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus L.M.D. 79.41 in recombinant Escherichia coli is necessary and is therefore the focus of the current study. Different carbon sources as well as induction conditions were investigated for overexpression of soluble PQQGDH. The results indicate that the target protein was optimally produced with 20 g/L glucose as the substrate. Moreover, the highest expression level (1530 kU/L) was achieved by a novel two‐temperature cultivation strategy in the 10‐L fermentor. This presents a sixfold improvement over previously reported values. After Ni‐NTA affinity chromatography purification, high‐purity enzyme with the specific activity of 5811 U/mg was obtained with a purification yield of 55%. The purified recombinant PQQGDH showed thermal stability and substrate specificity as the native enzyme. In summary, this work provides an alternative production process to overexpress PQQGDH and shows high applicability for large‐scale production of this important glucose dehydrogenase. 相似文献

To improve the amino acid production by metabolic engineering, eliminating the pathway bottleneck is known to be very effective. The metabolic response of Methylophilus methylotrophus upon the addition of glucose and of pyruvate was investigated in batch cultivation. We found that the supply of pyruvate is a bottleneck in L-lysine production in M. methylotrophus from methanol as carbon source. M. methylotrophus has a ribulose monophosphate (RuMP) pathway for methanol assimilation, and consequently synthesized fructose-6-phosphate is metabolized to pyruvate via the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway, and the ED pathway is thought to be the main pathway for pyruvate supply. An L-lysine producer of M. methylotrophus with an enhanced ED pathway was constructed by the introduction of the E. coli edd-eda operon encoding the enzyme involving the ED pathway. In this strain, the overall enzymatic activity of ED pathway, which is estimated by measuring the activities of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase plus 2-keto-3-deoxy-6-phosphogluconate aldolase, was about 20 times higher than in the parent. This strain produced 1.2 times more L-lysine than the parent producer. Perhaps, then, the supply of pyruvate was a bottleneck in L-lysine production in the L-lysine producer of M. methylotrophus. 相似文献

Escherichia coli B/r was grown in chemostat cultures under various limitations with glucose as carbon source. Since E. coli only synthesized the glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) apo-enzyme and not the appropriate cofactor, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), no gluconate production could be observed. However, when cell-saturating amounts of PQQ (nmol to mol range) were pulsed into steady state glucose-excess cultures of E. coli, the organisms responded with an instantaneous formation of gluconate and an increased oxygen consumption rate. This showed that reconstitution of GDH in situ was possible.Hence, in order to examine the influence on glucose metabolism of an active GDH, E. coli was grown aerobically in chemostat cultures under various limitations in the presence of PQQ. It was found that the presence of PQQ indeed had a sizable effect: at pH 5.5 under phosphate- or sulphate- limited conditions more than 60% of the glucose consumed was converted to gluconate, which resulted in steady state gluconate concentrations up to 80 mmol/l. The specific rate of gluconate production (0.3–7.6 mmol·h-1·(g dry wt cells)-1) was dependent on the growth rate and the nature of the limitation. The production rate of other overflow metabolites such as acetate, pyruvate, and 2-oxoglutarate, was only slightly altered in the presence of PQQ. The fact that the cells were now able to use an active GDH apparently did not affect apo-enzyme synthesis.Abbreviations HEPES

Genetic complementation of an Escherichia coli double mutant was used to isolate and express the gene coding for Plasmodium falciparum glucose phosphate isomerase. The gene contains a 1773-base pair open reading frame, has no introns, and maps to P. falciparum chromosome 14. 34% of the deduced amino acid sequence is identical to human glucose phosphate isomerase, with highest similarity in regions of the proposed active sites. The putative initiation site of translation was determined by deletional and oligonucleotide mediated, site-specific mutageneses. Our data suggest that key metabolic enzymes of Plasmodia can be cloned and expressed in E. coli without prior knowledge of the primary amino acid or nucleic acid structure. 相似文献

Pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent quinoprotein alcohol dehydrogenases (PQQ-ADH) require ammonia or primary amines as activators in in vitro assays with artificial electron acceptors. We found that PQQ-ADH from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 (PpADH) was activated by various primary amines, di-methylamine, and tri-methylamine. The alcohol oxidation activity of PpADH was strongly enhanced and the affinity for substrates was also improved by pentylamine as an activator. 相似文献

Degradation of tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol by Ralstonia eutropha is initiated by an inducible pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase. 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1 下载免费PDF全文
An organism tentatively identified as Ralstonia eutropha was isolated from enrichment cultures containing tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (THFA) as the sole source of carbon and energy. The strain was able to tolerate up to 200 mM THFA in mineral salt medium. The degradation was initiated by an inducible ferricyanide-dependent alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) which was detected in the soluble fraction of cell extracts. The enzyme catalyzed the oxidation of THFA to the corresponding tetrahydrofuran-2-carboxylic acid. Studies with n-pentanol as the substrate revealed that the corresponding aldehyde was released as a free intermediate. The enzyme was purified 211-fold to apparent homogeneity and could be identified as a quinohemoprotein containing one pyrroloquinoline quinone and one covalently bound heme c per monomer. It was a monomer of 73 kDa and had an isoelectric point of 9.1. A broad substrate spectrum was obtained for the enzyme, which converted different primary alcohols, starting from C2 compounds, secondary alcohols, diols, polyethylene glycol 6000, and aldehydes, including formaldehyde. A sequence identity of 65% with a quinohemoprotein ADH from Comamonas testosteroni was found by comparing 36 N-terminal amino acids. The ferricyanide-dependent ADH activity was induced during growth on different alcohols except ethanol. In addition to this activity, an NAD-dependent ADH was present depending on the alcohol used as the carbon source. 相似文献

Thermoproteus tenax is a hyperthermophilic, facultative heterotrophic archaeum. In this organism the utilization of the two catabolic pathways,
a variant of the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas (EMP) pathway and the modified (nonphosphorylative) Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway,
was investigated and the first enzyme of the ED pathway, glucose dehydrogenase, was characterized. The distribution of the
13C label in alanine synthesized by cells grown with [1-13C]glucose indicated that in vivo the EMP pathway and the modified ED pathway operate parallel, with glucose metabolization
via the EMP pathway being prominent. To initiate studies on the regulatory mechanisms governing carbon flux via these pathways,
the first enzyme of the ED pathway, glucose dehydrogenase, was purified to homogeneity and its phenotypic properties were
characterized. The pyridine-nucleotide-dependent enzyme used both NAD+ and NADP+ as cosubstrates, showing a 100-fold higher affinity for NADP+. Besides glucose, xylose was used as substrate, but with significantly lower affinity. These data suggest that the physiological
function of the enzyme is the oxidation of glucose by NADP+. A striking feature was the influence of NADP+ and NAD+ on the quaternary structure and activity state of the enzyme. Without cosubstrate, the enzyme was highly aggregated (mol.
mass > 600 kDa) but inactive, whereas in the presence of the cosubstrate the aggregates dissociated into enzymatically active,
homomeric dimers with a mol. mass of 84 kDa (mol. mass of subunits: 41 kDa). The N-terminal amino acid sequence showed striking
similarity to the respective partial sequences of alcohol dehydrogenases and sorbitol dehydrogenases, but no resemblance to
the known pyridine-nucleotide-dependent archaeal and bacterial glucose dehydrogenases.

The membrane-bound quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase (mGDH) in Escherichia coli contains pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) and participates in the direct oxidation of D-glucose to D-gluconate by transferring electrons to ubiquinone (UQ). To elucidate the mechanism of ubiquinone reduction by mGDH, we applied a pulse radiolysis technique to mGDH with or without bound UQ8. With the UQ8-bound enzyme, a hydrated electron reacted with mGDH to form a transient species with an absorption maximum at 420 nm, characteristic of formation of a neutral ubisemiquinone radical. Subsequently, the decay of the absorbance at 420 nm was accompanied by an increase in the absorbance at 370 nm. Experiments with the PQQ-free apoenzyme showed no such subsequent absorption changes, although ubisemiquinone was formed. These results indicate that a pathway for an intramolecular electron transfer from ubisemiquinone radical at the UQ8 binding site to PQQ exists in mGDH. The first-order rate constant of this process was calculated to be equal to 1.2 x 10(3) s(-1). These findings are consistent with our proposal that during the catalytic cycle of mGDH the bound UQ8 mediates electron transfer from the reduced PQQ to UQ8 pools. 相似文献
