Characterization of the dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase from Streptococcus pneumoniae and its role in pneumococcal infection

1 Apr 2002

Abstract excerpt

In the present study, we have characterized the dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLDH) of Strepto-coccus pneumoniae and its role during pneumococcal infection. We have also demonstrated that a lack of DLDH results in a deficiency in alpha-galactoside metabolism and galactose transport. DLDH is an enzyme that is classically involved in the three-step conversion of 2-oxo acids to their respective acyl-CoA...
