An enzyme that uses GTP as a substrate for the formation of formate and a 2.4.5-triamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine derivative has been determined in the riboflavin overproducing yeast Pichia guilliermondii. In rib 1 mutants this enzyme is absent. This implies an involvement of the enzyme in the riboflavin biosynthesis and indicates that GTP is a purine precursor of riboflavin. Some properties of the GTP cyclohydrolase (substrate specificity, pH and temperature optima, activators and inhibitors, molecular weight, stability) were studied using a partly purified enzyme preparation. Cells grown under riboflavin overproducing conditions (iron deficiency) have 20–40-fold increased enzyme activity as compared with non-overproducing cultures (supplemented with iron).Non-Standard Abbreviations RF

Infection by the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality seen in cystic fibrosis (CF) patients. This is mainly due to the genotypic and phenotypic changes of the bacteria that cause conversion from a typical nonmucoid to a mucoid form in the CF lung. Mucoid conversion is indicative of overproduction of a capsule-like polysaccharide called alginate. The alginate-overproducing (Alg(+)) mucoid phenotype seen in the CF isolates is extremely unstable. Low oxygen tension growth of mucoid variants readily selects for nonmucoid variants. The switching off mechanism has been mapped to the algT/U locus, and the molecular basis for this conversion was partially attributed to mutations in the algT/U gene itself. To further characterize molecular changes resulting in the unstable phenotype, an isogenic PAO1 derivative that is constitutively Alg(+) due to the replacement of the mucA with mucA22 (PDO300) was used. The mucA22 allele is common in mucoid CF isolates. Thirty-four spontaneous nonmucoid variants, or sap (suppressor of alginate production) mutants, of PDO300 were isolated under low oxygen tension. About 40% of the sap mutants were rescued by a plasmid carrying algT/U (Group A). The remaining sap mutants were not (Group B). The members of Group B fall into two subsets: one similar to PAO1, and another comparable to PDO300. Sequence analysis of the algT/U and mucA genes in Group A shows that mucA22 is intact, whereas algT/U contains mutations. Genetic complementation and sequencing of one Group B sap mutant, sap22, revealed that the nonmucoid phenotype was due to the presence of a mutation in PA3257. PA3257 encodes a putative periplasmic protease. Mutation of PA3257 resulted in decreased algT/U expression. Thus, inhibition of algT/U is a primary mechanism for alginate synthesis suppression. 相似文献

A threonine overproducing mutant of Alcaligenes sp. SH-69 was isolated and its ability to produce poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate), poly(3HB-co-3HV), was investigated. The 3HV fraction in poly(3HB-co-3HV) produced from glucose as the sole carbon source exceeded 22 mol%, which is approximately six times higher than that achieved by the wild type under the same culture conditions. Furthermore, the addition of a relatively low concentration (10 mM) of propionic acid, valeric acid or levulinic acid to the glucose medium greatly increased the molar fraction of 3HV in the copolyester, to 38–77 mol%. The results suggest that metabolic engineering of the biosynthetic pathways supplying polyhydroxyalkanoate monomers, such as the threonine biosynthetic pathway, can lead to new poly(3HB-co-3HV)-producing strains. 相似文献
