Abstract excerpt
The arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway in Pseudomonas aeruginosa serves to generate ATP. The three enzymes involved, ADI, catabolic ornithine carbamoyltransferase and carbamate kinase, are induced by oxygen limitation and encoded by the contiguous arcABC genes. A 1.5-kb region upstream from arcABC...
