The role of isochorismate hydroxymutase genes entC and menF in enterobactin and menaquinone biosynthesis in Escherichia coli.

Biochimica et biophysica acta - 23 Oct 1998

Dahm C, Müller R, Schulte G, Schmidt K, Leistner E

Abstract excerpt

Klebsiella pneumoniae 62-1, a triple mutant impaired in aromatic amino acid biosynthesis (Phe-, Tyr-, Trp-), excretes chorismic acid into the culture broth. When transformed with plasmids harbouring Escherichia coli genes entC or menF the mutant excretes a mixture of both chorismic and isochorismic acid indicating that not only entC but also menF encodes an isochorismate hydroxymutase (isochorismate synthase, EC...
