A newly isolated lactic acid bacterium, Enterococcus casseliflavus A-12, produced pyruvic acid (16 g/l) during aerobic culture in an alkaline medium containing sodium gluconate (50 g/l) as the carbon source. The production was dependent on the pH of the culture, the optimum initial pH being 10.0. With static culture, the organism produced lactic acid (2.7 g/l) from both gluconate and glucose. Pyruvate did not accumulate in growing cultures on glucose, but resting cells obtained from a culture on gluconate produced pyruvate from glucose as well as gluconate. The enzyme profiles of the organism, which grew on gluconate and glucose, suggested that gluconate was metabolized via the Entner-Doudoroff and Embdem-Meyerhof-Parnas pathways in aerobic culture, and that glucose was oxidized mainly via the latter pathway under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Gluconokinase, a key enzyme in the aerobic metabolism of gluconate, was partially purified from this strain and characterized. 相似文献

The yield from glucose of ammonia-grown carbon-limited continuous cultures of Penicillium stipitatum was ca. 20% higher than that of nitrate-grown cultures at all growth rates examined. However, the yield from oxygen was similar during growth on both nitrogen sources. Under phosphate limitation the specific rate of gluconic acid and stipitatic acid production increased with growth rate, but the former product accounted for virtually 100% of the excreted carbon. Stipitatic acid was not produced under nitrogen limitation, and glucose supplied to the culture in excess of that required for growth was virtually quantatively converted into gluconic acid. Productivities of 11.4 g gluconic acid/L/h were stably maintained in continuous culture. Under conditions of glucose excess the enzyme glucose oxidase was excreted into the culture. The specific activity of this extracellular enzyme increased when the input glucose concentration to the culture was progressively increased. The excretion of a protein under nitrogen limitation suggests that this enzyme plays an important role under these conditions. Indeed, it was demonstrated that nitrogen-limited cultures did not overmetabolize gluconate at either pH 6.5 or 3.5, although up to 29 g/L gluconate was present in the culture. The Y(gluconate) and YO(2) of C- and N-limited gluconate-grown cultures were similar indicating that the rapid conversion of glucose to gluconate probably affords a means of regulating carbon flow in this organism. Nitrogen-limited cultures of P. stipitatum overmetabolized glucose to a much greater extent than acetate, fructose, or gluconate. 相似文献

The metabolism of gluconate by Klebsiella pneumoniae NCTC 418 was studied in continuous culture. Under all gluconate-excess conditions at low culture pH values (pH 4.5–5.5) the majority (70–90%) of the gluconate metabolized was converted to 2-oxogluconate via gluconate dehydrogenase (GADH), although specific 2-oxogluconate production rates under potassium-limited conditions were significantly lower than under other gluconate-excess conditions. At high culture pH values, metabolism shifted towards production of acetate. Levels of GADH were highest at low culture pH values and synthesis was stimulated by the presence of (high concentrations of) gluconate. An increase in activity of the tricarboxylic acid cycle was accompanied by a decrease in GADH activity in vivo and in vitro, suggesting that the GADH serves a role as an alternative energy-generating system. Anaerobic 2-oxogluconate production was found to be possible in the presence of nitrate as electron acceptor. Levels of gluconate kinase were highest when K. pneumoniae was grown under gluconate-limited conditions. Under carbon-excess conditions, levels of this enzyme correlated with the intracellular catabolic flux.Abbreviations GADH

Optimization of pH of medium, cultivation temperature and aeration for gluconic acid production by a strain ofPenicillium janthinellum was investigated. An initial pH of 6.0 and a temperature of 30°C were optimal for calcium gluconate production. A submerged culture gave a higher yield of calcium gluconate than a surface culture. 相似文献

The aim of this work was to examine the metabolism of exogenous gluconate by a 4-day-old cell suspension culture of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. Release of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]gluconate was dependent on the concentration in the medium and could be resolved into a substrate-saturable component (apparent K(m) of approximately 0.4 mM) and an unsaturable component. At an external concentration of 0.3 mM, the rate of decarboxylation of applied gluconate was 0.2% of the rate of oxygen consumption by the cells. There was no effect of 0.3 mM gluconate on the rate of oxygen consumption, or on the rate of (14)CO(2) release from either [1-(14)C]glucose or [6-(14)C]glucose by the culture. The following observations argue that gluconate taken up by the cells is metabolised by direct phosphorylation to 6-phosphogluconate and subsequent decarboxylation through 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. First, more than 95% of the label released from [1-(14)C]gluconate during metabolism by the cell culture was recovered as (14)CO(2). Secondly, inhibition of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP) by treatment with 6-aminonicotinamide preferentially inhibited release of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]gluconate relative to that from [1-(14)C]glucose. Thirdly, perturbation of glucose metabolism by glucosamine did not affect (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]gluconate. Fourth, stimulation of the OPPP by phenazine methosulphate stimulated release of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]gluconate to a far greater extent than that from [1-(14)C]glucose. It is proposed that measurement of (14)CO(2) from [1-(14)C]gluconate provides a simple and sensitive technique for monitoring flux through the OPPP pathway in plants. 相似文献

Summary When G. oxydans ATCC 621-H was grown in batch culture in a complex medium with glucose, ketogluconates were produced when the pH in the culture was maintained at 5.5. Without pH control gluconate was the only product of glucose oxidation, but at pH 5.5 the gluconate so produced was further oxidized to ketogluconates. Production of ketogluconates started when glucose was almost completely exhausted. It was shown that the actual glucose and gluconate concentrations in the culture do not determine the onset of ketogluconate formation during growth. Both 2 and 5 ketogluconate were produced. Addition of CaCO3 to the medium favored the production of 5 ketogluconate. However, under these conditions minor quantities of 2 ketogluconate were also formed. The sequential production of gluconate and ketogluconates from glucose was not only restricted to G. oxydans ATCC 621-H. A number of G. oxydans strains when grown under standard conditions in a pH controlled batch culture, all produced ketogluconates from glucose via an intermediate accumulation of gluconate. Although the ratios of the ketogluconates produced varied from strain to strain, all strains produced both 2 and 5 ketogluconate. 相似文献

Summary
Agrobacterium radiobacter NCIB 11 883 does not produce gluconate under conditions of glucose excess in batch or continuous culture. However, the addition of micromolar concentrations of pyrrolo quinoline quinone (PQQ) to fermentation media resulted in rapid excretion of gluconate by batch and continuous cultures. This rapid dehydrogenation of glucose was found in cells grown under carbon and nitrogen limitation and is constitutive which suggests that the only reason why this activity is not normally expressed is due to the inability of the organism to synthesize the prosthetic group (PQQ) of the glucose dehydrogenase enzyme.Although the addition of PQQ to batch and continuous cultures caused a very rapid specific rate of gluconate production (0.6–1.1 g gluconate g-1 dry wt. h-1) the rate of exopolysaccharide production remained unaltered. Indeed, when the rates of substrate and oxygen uptake are corrected for the rate of gluconate production in the presence of PQQ there appears to be little physiological consequence as a result of this oxidation. 相似文献

Streptavidin is a biotin-binding protein which has been widely used in many in vitro and in vivo applications. Because of the ease of protein recovery and availability of protease-deficient strains, the Bacillus subtilis expression-secretion system is an attractive system for streptavidin production. However, attempts to produce streptavidin using B. subtilis face the problem that cells overproducing large amounts of streptavidin suffer poor growth, presumably because of biotin deficiency. This problem cannot be solved by supplementing biotin to the culture medium, as this will saturate the biotin binding sites in streptavidin. We addressed this dilemma by engineering a B. subtilis strain (WB800BIO) which overproduces intracellular biotin. The strategy involves replacing the natural regulatory region of the B. subtilis chromosomal biotin biosynthetic operon (bioWAFDBIorf2) with an engineered one consisting of the B. subtilis groE promoter and gluconate operator. Biotin production in WB800BIO is induced by gluconate, and the level of biotin produced can be adjusted by varying the gluconate dosage. A level of gluconate was selected to allow enhanced intracellular production of biotin without getting it released into the culture medium. WB800BIO, when used as a host for streptavidin production, grows healthily in a biotin-limited medium and produces large amounts (35 to 50 mg/liter) of streptavidin, with over 80% of its biotin binding sites available for future applications. 相似文献

Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus PAL3 was grown in a chemostat with N(2) and mixtures of xylose and gluconate. Xylose was oxidized to xylonate, which was accumulated in the culture supernatants. Biomass yields and carbon from gluconate incorporated into biomass increased with the rate of xylose oxidation. By using metabolic balances it is demonstrated that extracellular xylose oxidation led N(2)-fixing G. diazotrophicus cultures to increase the efficiency of energy generation. 相似文献

In order to improve the production rate of l-lysine, a mutant of Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 21513 was cultivated in complex medium with gluconate and glucose as mixed carbon sources. In a batch culture, this
strain was found to consume gluconate and glucose simultaneously. In continuous culture at dilution rates ranging from 0.2
h−1 to 0.25 h−1, the specific l-lysine production rate increased to 0.12 g g−1 h−1 from 0.1 g g−1 h−1, the rate obtained with glucose as the sole carbon source [Lee et al. (1995) Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 43:1019–1027]. It
is notable that l-lysine production was observed at higher dilution rates than 0.4 h−1, which was not observed when glucose was the sole carbon source. The positive effect of gluconate was confirmed in the shift
of the carbon source from glucose to gluconate. The metabolic transition, which has been characterized by decreased l-lysine production at the higher glucose uptake rates, was not observed when gluconate was added. These results demonstrate
that the utilization of gluconate as a secondary carbon source improves the maximum l-lysine production rate in the threonine-limited continuous culture, probably by relieving the limiting factors in the lysine
synthesis rate such as NADPH supply and/or phosphoenolpyruvate availability.

Intermittent broth replacement was carried out to enhance the productivity and purity of sodium gluconate usingAspergillus niger by reducing the concentration of unmetabolized glucose. As inoculum size increased, length of lag phase was shortened and
high initial production rate of sodium gluconate was achieved. However, too high inoculum concentration lowered productivity
during the later stage of fermentation and increased residual glucose at the end of cultivation. When culture broth was replaced
intermittently with distilled water, fresh medium, or recycled medium for comparison with traditional fermentation method,
production of sodium gluconate was enhanced more than 1.5 fold and active production period could be prolonged without residual
glucose. In addition, productivity was maintained at a level higher than 6 g/L/nr. Therefore, it was found that the reduction
of biomass and viscosity by intermittent broth replacement could enhance the productivity. 相似文献

Glucose metabolism has been studied in two strains ofAcinetobacter calcoaceticus. Strain LMD 82.3, was able to grow on glucose and possessed glucose dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.99.17). Glucose oxidation by whole
cells was stimulated by PQQ, the prosthetic group of glucose dehydrogenase. PQQ not only increased the rate of glucose oxidation
and gluconic acid production but also shortened the lag phase for growth on glucose.
Strain LMD 79.41 also possessed glucose dehydrogenase but was unable to grow on glucose. Batch cultures and carbon-limited
chemostat cultures growing on acetate in the presence of glucose oxidized the sugar to gluconic acid, which was not further
metabolized. However, after prolonged cultivation on mixtures of acetate and glucose, carbon-limited chemostat cultures suddenly
acquired the capacity to utilize gluconate. This phenomenon was accompanied by the appearance of gluconate kinase and a repression
of isocitrate lyase synthesis. In contrast to the starter culture, cells from chemostats which had been fully adapted to gluconate
utilization, were able to utilize glucose as a sole carbon and energy source in liquid and solid media. 相似文献

1. Cultures of Escherichia coli growing on gluconate use both gluconate and glucose when glucose is added. 2. Glycerol-grown cells adapt to gluconate utilization even in media containing glucose as well as gluconate. 3. The rates of gluconate utilization by cells growing on a mixture of glucose and gluconate, and the specific activities of the gluconate uptake system and of gluconate kinase, are greater if adenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) is present in the medium than in its absence. 4. Growth on media containing gluconate and cyclic AMP is accompanied by the formation of methyl glyoxal and pyruvate, and progressive inhibition of growth. 5. A mutant devoid of adenylate cyclase activity (cya) grew well on glucose in the absence of exogenous cyclic AMP but grew only poorly on gluconate; neither the gluconate uptake system nor gluconate kinase was adequately induced. The addition of cyclic AMP promoted growth on gluconate and facilitated the induction of proteins required for gluconate catabolism. 6. Phage Pl-mediated transduction of cya+ into the cya-mutant also restored the wild-type phenotype in its ability to adapt to gluconate utilization. 相似文献

In this study we developed a new method for accurately determining the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) split ratio, an important metabolic parameter in the primary metabolism of a cell. This method is based on simultaneous feeding of unlabeled glucose and trace amounts of [U-13C]gluconate, followed by measurement of the mass isotopomers of the intracellular metabolites surrounding the 6-phosphogluconate node. The gluconate tracer method was used with a penicillin G-producing chemostat culture of the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum. For comparison, a 13C-labeling-based metabolic flux analysis (MFA) was performed for glycolysis and the PPP of P. chrysogenum. For the first time mass isotopomer measurements of 13C-labeled primary metabolites are reported for P. chrysogenum and used for a 13C-based MFA. Estimation of the PPP split ratio of P. chrysogenum at a growth rate of 0.02 h(-1) yielded comparable values for the gluconate tracer method and the 13C-based MFA method, 51.8% and 51.1%, respectively. A sensitivity analysis of the estimated PPP split ratios showed that the 95% confidence interval was almost threefold smaller for the gluconate tracer method than for the 13C-based MFA method (40.0 to 63.5% and 46.0 to 56.5%, respectively). From these results we concluded that the gluconate tracer method permits accurate determination of the PPP split ratio but provides no information about the remaining cellular metabolism, while the 13C-based MFA method permits estimation of multiple fluxes but provides a less accurate estimate of the PPP split ratio. 相似文献

Effect of mutations causing gluconate kinase or gluconate permease deficiency on expression of the Bacillus subtilis gnt operon. 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1

The gluconate (gnt) operon contains genes for a repressor of the operon, gluconate kinase, and gluconate permease. A nonleaky kinase mutation (gntK4) induced the gnt operon constitutively through interaction of the repressor with an inducer of gluconate which had been endogenously formed and accumulated in the cell owing to the complete deficiency of the kinase even in the absence of gluconate in the medium. In contrast, a nonleaky permease mutation (gntP9) never induced the operon by gluconate likely because it cannot give rise to its inducing concentration in the cell even in the presence of gluconate in the medium. 相似文献

Transport of gluconate has been studied in a wild-type strain of Rhodotorula glutinis and in a mutant derived from it which has acquired the ability to grow on gluconate as the only carbon and energy source. The transport is energy dependent. It shows the same Km for gluconate (0.1 mm) between pH 4.7 and 7, which suggests that the negatively charged gluconate is the true substrate for the transport system. The rate of gluconate uptake is much lower in the wild type than in the mutant. The mutant grown on gluconate transports gluconate much faster than if grown on other carbon sources. Glucose rapidly and irreversibly inactivates the transport system. This inactivation can also be effected by δ-gluconolactone and to a lesser extent by acetate; it is not prevented by gluconate and occurs also in the presence of cycloheximide. 相似文献

The production of vitamins by Azospirillum brasilense was studied in chemically-defined media amended with malate, gluconate and fructose. The liberation of vitamins was significantly
affected by the presence of different carbon sources and the age of the culture. Thiamine, niacin and pantothenic acid were
produced in large amounts. Thiamine and riboflavin were produced only in culture containing malate or fructose. Biotin was
not detected in the supernatants of the culture media. 相似文献

A thiamine-requiring strain of Corynebacterium was found to accumulate a ketopentose extracellularly from gluconate. The ketopentose was isolated from the culture medium and identified as d-ribulose. The accumulation of d-ribulose was significantly influenced by the concentration of thiamine in the medium. The maximum yield of d-ribulose was obtained at a thiamine concentration of 10 μg per liter, whereas good growth was favored at thiamine concentrations greater than 50 μg per liter. The accumulation of d-ribulose reached the concentration of 9.5 mg per ml after cessation of cell growth in shake culture at 30°C in a medium containing 6% potassium gluconate as a carbon source. 相似文献
