Abstract:Pseudomonas putida, a soil bacterium widely used for synthetic biology and metabolic engineering, processes glucose through convergent peripheral pathways that ultimately yield 6-phosphogluconate. Such a periplasmic gluconate shunt (PGS), composed by glucose and gluconate dehydrogenases, sequentially transforms glucose into gluconate and 2-ketogluconate. Although the secretion of these organic acids byP.putidahas been extensively recognized, the mechanism and spatiotemporal regulation of the PGS remained elusi… Show more
