The methylcitric acid pathway in Ralstonia eutropha: new genes identified involved in propionate metabolism.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Aug 2001

Brämer Christian O, Steinbüchel Alexander

Abstract excerpt

From Ralstonia eutropha HF39 null-allele mutants were created by Tn5 mutagenesis and by homologous recombination which were impaired in growth on propionic acid and levulinic acid. From the molecular, physiological and enzymic analysis of these mutants it was concluded that in this bacterium propionic acid is metabolized via the methylcitric acid pathway. The genes encoding enzymes of this pathway are organized...
