The relationship between tricarboxylic acid (TCA) and glyoxalate cycle and the effect of their metabolites levels on the vancomycin production of Amycolatopsis orientalis were investigated in different concentration of glycerol (2.5-20 g/l). Intracellular glycerol levels increased with respect to increases in glycerol concentrations of the growth medium. Extracellular glycerol levels decreased slowly up to 24 h while uptake rates were increased during 36-48 h for 10 and 15 g/l and during 36-60 h at 20 g/l of glycerol. Intracellular citrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, fumarate levels increased up to 10 g/l glycerol concentration. However, intracellular succinate and malate levels were increased up to 15 g/l glycerol. Extracellular citrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate and malate levels increased with respect to increases in glycerol concentration. The highest alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activity was determined at 15 g/l glycerol. Isocitrate lyase activity showed a positive correlation with the increases in glycerol concentration of the growth medium. Vancomycin production increased with the increases in glycerol concentration from 5 to 10 g/l. These results showed that A. orientalis grown in glycerol containing medium used glyoxalate shunt actively instead of TCA cycle which supports precursors of many amino acid which are effective on the antibiotic production. 相似文献

Glycerol-requiring mutants of Bacillus subtilis could not sporulate in nutrient sporulation medium even when additional glycerol was added from the beginning of growth. Sporulation could be partially restored either by the frequent addition of small amounts of glycerol during the developmental period or by the single addition of both 10 mM glycerol and 10 mM malate. But sporulation could be completely restored by the addition of 50 mM glycerol-phosphate from the beginning. At the end of growth of the glycerol mutants in nutrient sporulation medium, the cell membrane collapsed and separated from the cell wall, and much of the cellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate was released into the medium. These observations were made in two glycerol mutants, one derived from strain 168 containing glycerol-teichoic acid in the cell wall and the other derived from strain W23 containing ribitol-teichoic acid. 相似文献

1. Incubation of isolated liver cells in a medium containing bicarbonate raises malate concentrations almost sixfold compared with values obtained in a bicarbonate-free phosphate medium. The malate concentration of about 0.3mm in bicarbonate medium is of the same order as the K(m) for malate dehydrogenase. 2. The utilization of ethanol, glyercol and sorbitol was increased by 20-35% in bicarbonate medium. 3. Fluoromalate, a specific inhibitor of malate dehydrogenase and the malate carrier, inhibited or ethanol oxidation by 23%, glycerol uptake by 20% and sorbitol uptake by 42% in bicarbonate medium, but had a much smaller inhibitory action in phosphate medium. In consequence fluoromalate almost abolished the stimulatory effects of bicarbonate on substrate utilization. 4. Difluoro-oxaloacetate, a specific inhibitor of aspartate aminotransferase, had about one-half the inhibitory activity of fluoromalate. The two inhibitors in combination were less effective than fluoromalate by itself. 5. It is concluded that bicarbonate stimulates the utilization of reduced substrates, which are oxidized in the cytoplasmic compartment of the liver cell, by increasing the activity of rate-limiting malate dehydrogenase-dependent intercompartmental hydrogen shuttles. Both malate-oxaloacetate and malate-aspartate systems are involved in these hydrogen-translocation processes. 相似文献

The growth of Yarrowia lipolytica yeast as well the biosynthesis of citric acid on rapeseed oil were studied. It was indicated that the initial step of assimilation of rapeseed oil in the yeast Y. lipolytica is their hydrolysis by extracellular lipases with the formation of glycerol and fatty acids, which appear in the medium in the phase of active growth. The concentrations of these metabolites change insignificantly upon further cultivation. Lipase and the key enzymes of glycerol metabolism (glycerol kinase) and the glyoxylate cycle responsible for the metabolism of fatty acids (isocitrate lyase and malate synthase) are induced just at the beginning of the growth phase and remain active in the course of further cultivation. These results, taken together, suggest that glycerol and fatty acids according in the medium do not suppress the metabolism of each other. The fact that glycerol and fatty acids can be consumed simultaneously is of special importance for the development of the efficient regime of oil feeding, Y. lipolytica produced citric acid (175?g/L) with a yield of 150%. It should be noted that the simultaneous utilization of two different substrates is not typical of micro-organisms, which first assimilate one of the two available substrates (commonly, a carbohydrate), whereas the assimilation of the other substrate starts only after the first substrate is fully consumed from the medium. Indeed, upon the cultivation of Y. lipolytica on the mixture of glucose and oleic acid, the latter substrate began to be utilized only when the concentration of glucose decreased. The glycolytic enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase was induced from the first hours of cultivation and remained at high levels until the exhaustion of glucose in the medium. At the same time, the activities of isocitrate lyase and malate synthase were very low during the metabolism of glucose, but were rapidly induced (approximately in 10 times) after the exhaustion of glucose in the medium. When Y. lipolytica was grown on the mixture of glucose and hexadecane, the dynamics of growth and substrate consumption was typical of the diauxie phenomenon: the utilization of hexadecane began only in several hours after the time when glucose was completely exhausted in the cultivation medium. In this case, the exhaustion of glucose arrested growth and the culture resumed growth only after a lag period. The assay of enzymes showed that the glycolytic enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase was active during the phase of growth on glucose, whereas the enzymes of the glyoxylate cycle, isocitrate lyase and malate synthase were active during the phase of growth on hexadecane. In recent years in the literature, there are data that the different sugars produce signals which modify the conformation of certain proteins that, in turn, directly or through a regulatory cascade affect the expression of the genes subject to catabolite repression. These genes are not all controlled by a single set of regulatory proteins (Cho et al. 2009), but there are different circuits of repression for different groups of genes (Gancedo 1990). We will discuss the possible metabolic regulation in the case of Y. lipolytica. 相似文献

Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1) are able to utilise only a few carbohydrates for growth such as glucose, mannose, fructose and galactose. They do not grow on ribose, lactose, sucrose, glycerol, lactate, pyruvate, citrate, succinate, fumarate or malate nor on glycogenic or ketogenic amino acids. After mutagenesis and selection in glucose free medium supplemented with various, individual, growth substrates, we have isolated single-cell derived clones which are now able to grow on one of the following energy source: ribose, lactose, sucrose or lactate. 相似文献

The major nonmitochondrial isozyme of malate dehydrogenase (MDH2) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells grown with acetate as a carbon source was purified and shown by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to have a subunit molecular weight of approximately 42,000. Enzyme assays and an antiserum prepared against the purified protein were used to screen a collection of acetate-nonutilizing (acetate-) yeast mutants, resulting in identification of mutants in one complementation group that lack active or immunoreactive MDH2. Transformation and complementation of the acetate- growth phenotype was used to isolate a plasmid carrying the MDH2 gene from a yeast genomic DNA library. The amino acid sequence derived from complete nucleotide sequence analysis of the isolated gene was found to be extremely similar (49% residue identity) to that of yeast mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (molecular weight, 33,500) despite the difference in sizes of the two proteins. Disruption of the MDH2 gene in a haploid yeast strain produced a mutant unable to grow on minimal medium with acetate or ethanol as a carbon source. Disruption of the MDH2 gene in a haploid strain also containing a disruption in the chromosomal MDH1 gene encoding the mitochondrial isozyme produced a strain unable to grow with acetate but capable of growth on rich medium with glycerol as a carbon source. The detection of residual malate dehydrogenase activity in the latter strain confirmed the existence of at least three isozymes in yeast cells. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP inhibits growth rate of E. coli Hfr 3000. Doubling times in glucose minimal medium increased from 60 to about 90 minutes with the addition of 5 mM cAMP. This effect is specific since it was not observed when the cyclic nucleotide was replaced by 5′ AMP, ADP, ATP or adenosine. Half maximal inhibition was obtained with 1 to 3 mM cyclic AMP. This inhibition occurs only with those carbon sources which are known to decrease intracellular cyclic AMP levels, i.e. glucose and pyruvate. No inhibition was observed with succinate, malate or glycerol. 相似文献

A spontaneous mutant of Rhodopseudomonas capsulata, capable of growth on glycerol, has been isolated. The mutant requires CO(2) or malate to assimilate glycerol photosynthetically. This requirement is not manifested aerobically. Glycerokinase (EC 2.7.1.30) and pyridine nucleotide-independent l-alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.2.1) activities appear coincidently with the metabolism of glycerol, suggesting that this organism employs these enzymes for glycerol dissimilation. 相似文献

A prenounced decrease in phosphoenolpyruvate earboxylase (PEPC) activity is observed upon dark/light transition in Sedum praealtum D.C., only when glycerol is included in the extraction medium. If glycerol is omitted, the activity extracted in light is initially low, but soon reaches night levels. The stabilization of the light-induced form of the enzyme by glycerol, in crude or desalted extracts, made it possible to study its kinetic properties in comparison to those of the dark form. The behaviour towards substrate (PEP) changes from hyperbolic (dark) to sigmoid (light), S0.5 is increased and the enzymic activity becomes more sensitive to malate inhibition. Quite different activity/pH profiles are also obtained for the two forms of PEPC.It is inferred that the in vivo regulation of PEPC in CAM is effected by a concerted action of light, malate and pH shifting. 相似文献

Suspension cells of carrot plants grown on mixed carbon sources of glucose (Glc) and malate preferentially used Glc. The cells
started to utilize malate only after Glc was depleted from the medium, thus exhibiting a diauxic growth. The residual concentration
of Glc decreased rapidly during the first growth phase, and that of malate decreased only during the second growth phase.
Malate uptake was negligible throughout the diauxic growth, suggesting that malate was being utilized via another metabolite.
An active metabolic flow from fumarate to pyruvate and oxaloacetate via malate was induced in cells during the second growth
phase. These results strongly suggested that malate remained unused in the medium in the first phase, and in the second phase
it was converted extracellularly into fumarate, which was subsequently transported into cells and metabolized into malate
and further into pyruvate and oxaloacetate. This study presents the second case of diauxic growth in plants and the peculiar
mode of malate utilization. 相似文献

Novikoff rat hepatoma cells (subline N1S1-67) grew when 30 mM L-lactate or pyruvate was substituted for D-glucose in Swim's medium 67 supplemented with dialyzed calf bovine serum. A 2.6-fold increase in cell number (1.34 generations) was obtained. RNA, DNA, protein and dry weight increased in proportion to the cell number. In control medium lacking L-lactate, pyruvate or D-glucose, cell growth of 0.42 generation was obtained. Growth with L-lactate was dependent on the L-lactate concentration up to 30 mM at which the greatest increase in cell number occurred. Significant growth did not occur when D-lactate, glycerol, acetate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate or malate, each at 30 mM, was substituted for D-glucose. Growth in the medium containing L-lactate was not due to the utilization of D-glucose or some other substrate carried into the culture with the inoculum. Medium contamination by D-glucose was insufficient to explain the growth obtained in the medium containing L-lactate, but could have accounted for growth in the control medium. Throughout growth, the concentration of L-lactate in the medium remained unchanged. The increase in cell number cannot be explained by L-lactate triggering the utilization of glycogen, nor by oxidation and degradation of protein, amino acids, fatty acids, or carbohydrate moieties of glycoprotein in the medium. L-Lactate does not serve as a significant carbon or energy source in the growth of these cells. 相似文献

The mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle enzyme malate dehydrogenase was purified from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and an antibody to the purified enzyme was obtained in rabbits. Immunoscreening of a yeast genomic DNA library cloned into a lambda gt11 expression vector with anti-malate dehydrogenase immunoglobulin G resulted in identification of a lambda recombinant encoding an immunoreactive beta-galactosidase fusion protein. The yeast DNA portion of the coding region for the fusion protein translates into an amino acid sequence which is very similar to carboxy-terminal sequences of malate dehydrogenases from other organisms. In s. cerevisiae transformed with a multicopy plasmid carrying the complete malate dehydrogenase gene, the specific activity and immunoreactivity of the mitochondrial isozyme are increased by eightfold. Expression of both the chromosomal and plasmid-borne genes is repressed by growth on glucose. Disruption of the chromosomal malate dehydrogenase gene in haploid S. cerevisiae produces mutants unable to grow on acetate and impaired in growth on glycerol plus lactate as carbon sources. 相似文献

Defined media, both solid and liquid, that support good growth of Bacillus stearothermophilus 1503 have been developed. Data are presented which indicate that manganese is required at relatively high concentrations for growth in a defined liquid medium. Phosphate concentrations higher than 5 times 10(-3) M have been shown to inhibit colony formation on solid media. Maximum viable counts of approximately 10(9) colony-forming units per ml were obtained in both the defined and minimal liquid media. Glucose, fructose, sucrose, glycerol, and starch support the growth of this obligate thermophile in the defined media, whereas citrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, malate, acetate, and lactate do not. The described media have been utilized to isolate several amino acid-requiring mutants of B. stearothermophilus. 相似文献

The strains S3 and F11 which were isolated respectively from static and submerged tanks for vinegar production were identified as Acetobacter rancens. Neither strain grew in an ammonium defined medium containing ethanol, glucose, glycerol or organic acids as the sole carbon source. When casamino acids were added, they grew luxuriantly with lactate, ethanol or glycerol as the carbon source and less well with acetate or glucose. They grew, forming much acetic acid, in defined ethanol medium when alanine was supplied in place of casamino acids, but strain S3 showed a longer lag time than strain Fl1. This lag time could be shortened by addition of aspartate and glutamate. These amino acids could be replaced by succinate, fumarate, malate, lactate, pyruvate or propionate but not by glucose. Both strains required lactate or pyruvate in defined glucose medium but many other organic acids, which were effective in defined ethanol medium, were ineffective or slightly effective in glucose medium. 相似文献

Mutants of which lack the activity of NAD-specific malate dehydrogenase show the presence of a FAD-dependent malate oxidase which can be assayed using ferricyanide as an electron acceptor. Cells which acquire the ability to form malate dehydrogenase cease to produce detectable levels of malate oxidase. Activity of malate dehydrogenase is definitely required to suppress synthesis of malate oxidase. The substrate and product of malate dehydrogenase, L-malate and oxalacetate, respectively, are apparently not involved in the regulation of malate oxidase. Presence of high derepressed levels of malate oxidase in malate dehydrogenase deficient mutants are determined by a gene linked closely to locus. Malate oxidase is produced in small amounts in minimal-glucose medium, but in high concentrations in complex medium. The peak levels are reached in early log phase of growth after which there is a dramatic drop with the approach of stationary phase. 相似文献

In this study, crude glycerol with high potassium concentration was purified using acid treatment and used as carbon source for lipid production using Yarrowia lipolytica SKY7. The crude glycerol was purified using phosphoric acid (pH 2) followed by centrifugation. When purified glycerol was used as carbon source for fermentation, higher biomass productivity (0.54 g/L/h) and lipid productivity (0.2 g/L/h) was observed at 96 h compared to crude glycerol. Results indicated that 6.32 g/L potassium in crude glycerol medium was inhibitory for cell growth and lipid production by Y. lipolytica. Yield coefficients, productivities and specific growth rates were calculated for each glycerol medium. The process performance with purified glycerol medium was comparable to that of pure glycerol medium. A higher lipid yield was obtained in purified glycerol medium (0.21 g/g glycerol) than crude glycerol medium (0.124 g/g glycerol). During purification of crude glycerol, KH2PO4 was also produced as by-product. This study provides a way for valorization of crude glycerol with high potassium concentration for microbial lipid production. 相似文献

Functions of the membrane-associated and cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenases in the citric acid cycle of Corynebacterium glutamicum

Like many other bacteria, Corynebacterium glutamicum possesses two types of L-malate dehydrogenase, a membrane-associated malate:quinone oxidoreductase (MQO; EC 1.1.99.16) and a cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase (MDH; EC 1.1.1.37) The regulation of MDH and of the three membrane-associated dehydrogenases MQO, succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), and NADH dehydrogenase was investigated. MQO, MDH, and SDH activities are regulated coordinately in response to the carbon and energy source for growth. Compared to growth on glucose, these activities are increased during growth on lactate, pyruvate, or acetate, substrates which require high citric acid cycle activity to sustain growth. The simultaneous presence of high activities of both malate dehydrogenases is puzzling. MQO is the most important malate dehydrogenase in the physiology of C. glutamicum. A mutant with a site-directed deletion in the mqo gene does not grow on minimal medium. Growth can be partially restored in this mutant by addition of the vitamin nicotinamide. In contrast, a double mutant lacking MQO and MDH does not grow even in the presence of nicotinamide. Apparently, MDH is able to take over the function of MQO in an mqo mutant, but this requires the presence of nicotinamide in the growth medium. It is shown that addition of nicotinamide leads to a higher intracellular pyridine nucleotide concentration, which probably enables MDH to catalyze malate oxidation. Purified MDH from C. glutamicum catalyzes oxaloacetate reduction much more readily than malate oxidation at physiological pH. In a reconstituted system with isolated membranes and purified MDH, MQO and MDH catalyze the cyclic conversion of malate and oxaloacetate, leading to a net oxidation of NADH. Evidence is presented that this cyclic reaction also takes place in vivo. As yet, no phenotype of an mdh deletion alone was observed, which leaves a physiological function for MDH in C. glutamicum obscure. 相似文献

Fumarase catalyzes the reversible, stereospecific hydration of fumarate to form L-malate. We have determined the viscosity dependence of V/K and V in both the forward and the reverse directions at pH 6.9 in the absence and presence of several viscosogenic reagents. V/K for fumarate hydration decreases with increasing concentrations of glycerol and sucrose, but is unaffected by increasing concentrations of the polymeric viscosogen polyethyleneglycol (av MW, 10,000 da). V/K for malate dehydration similarly decreases with increasing concentrations of both glycerol and sucrose, but is unaffected by increasing concentrations of polyethylene glycol. Equilibrium constants, calculated from the ratio of V/K values for malate dehydration and fumarate hydration at various concentrations of glycerol, closely match the experimentally determined equilibrium constants at the same concentrations of glycerol. Both experimental and calculated equilibrium constants decrease with increasing concentrations of viscosogens. V/K for the dehydration of (-)-tartrate, a poor substrate, is unaffected by increasing concentrations of glycerol. Analysis of the microviscosity dependence of malate dehydration and fumarate hydration suggests that both substrates bind at diffusion-limited rates. The viscosity dependence of substrate and product dissociation steps may also contribute to the viscosity dependence of V/K values for both substrates. The viscosity dependence of the maximal velocities argues that product dissociation steps are rate-limiting and diffusion controlled. 相似文献

The growth response of Listeria monocytogenes strains A4413 and 9037-7 to carbohydrates was determined in a defined medium. Neither pyruvate, acetate, citrate, isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, nor malate supported growth. Furthermore, inclusion of any of these carbohydrates in the growth medium with glucose did not increase the growth of Listeria over that observed on glucose alone. Resting cell suspensions of strain A4413 oxidized pyruvate but not acetate, citrate, isocitrate, alpha-ketoglutarate, succinate, fumarate, or malate. Cell-free extracts of strain A4413 contained active citrate synthase, aconitate hydratase, isocitrate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, fumarate hydratase, fumarate reductase, pyruvate dehydrogenase system, and oxidases for reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. The alpha-ketoglutarate oxidation system, succinate dehydrogenase, isocitrate lyase, and malate synthase were not detected. Cytochromes were not detected. The data suggest that strain A4413, under these conditions, utilizes a split noncyclic citrate pathway which has an oxidative portion (citrate synthase, aconitate hydratase, and isocitrate dehydrogenase) and a reductive portion (malate dehydrogenase, fumarate hydratase, and fumarate reductase). This pathway is probably important in biosynthesis but not for a net gain in energy. 相似文献
