Genetic Analysis of a Novel Pathway for <scp>d</scp> -Xylose Metabolism in <i>Caulobacter crescentus</i>

16 Dec 2006

Abstract excerpt

Genetic data suggest that the oligotrophic freshwater bacterium Caulobacter crescentus metabolizes D-xylose through a pathway yielding alpha-ketoglutarate, comparable to the recently described L-arabinose degradation pathway of Azospirillum brasilense. Enzymes of the C. crescentus pathway, including an NAD(+)-dependent xylose dehydrogenase, are encoded in the xylose-inducible xylXABCD operon (CC0823-CC0819).
