Characterization of a pentonolactonase involved in D-xylose and L-arabinose catabolism in the haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii.

FEMS microbiology letters - 6 Jul 2017

Sutter Jan-Moritz, Johnsen Ulrike, Schönheit Peter

Abstract excerpt

Haloferax volcanii degrades the pentoses D-xylose and L-arabinose via an oxidative pathway to α-ketoglutarate as an intermediate. The initial dehydrogenases of the pathway, D-xylose dehydrogenase (XDH) and L-arabinose dehydrogenase (L-AraDH) catalyze the NADP+ dependent D-xylose and L-arabinose oxidation. It is shown here that the pentoses are oxidized to the corresponding lactones, D-xylono-γ-lactone and...
