L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) fermentation by the human pathogen <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>

2020-09-09

Abstract excerpt

L-ascorbic acid, commonly known as vitamin C, is a ubiquitous 6-carbon carbohydrate characterized by its ability to scavenge free radicals. In enteric bacteria, L-ascorbate can be utilized as a nutrient using the UlaABCDEF and UlaG-UlaRpathway under anaerobic conditions. In this study, we identified homologs of the Ula system within Vibrio cholerae and showed that V. cholerae is able to utilize L-ascorbate as an...
