STATEMENT REGARDING SEQUENCE LISTING [0003] The Sequence Listing associated with this application is provided in text format in lieu of a paper copy, and is hereby incorporated by reference into the specification. The name of the text file containing the Sequence Listing is BRSK-004_02WO_ST25.txt. The text file is about 616 KB, was created on February 18, 2020, and is being submitted electronically via EFS-Web. BACKGROUND [0004] A large number of chemical compounds are currently derived from petrochemicals. Compounds such as monoethylene glycol (MEG), glycolic acid, acetone, isopropanol ( IPA), propene, serine, glycine, monoethanolamine, and ethylenediamine are valuable as raw material in the production of products like polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resins (from MEG), plastic polypropylene (from propene), polyglycolic acid and other biocompatible copolymers (from glycolic acid) and polyurethane fibers (from ethylenediamine). Alkenes (such as ethylene, propylene, different butenes, and pentenes, for example) are used in the plastics industry, fuels, and in other areas of the chemical industry. For example, isobutene is a small, highly reactive molecule that is used extensively as a platform chemical to manufacture a wide variety of products including fuel additives, rubber and rubber additives, and specialty chemicals. [0005] However, the compounds are currently produced from precursors that originate from fossil fuels, which contribute to climate change. To develop more environmentally friendly processes for the production of MEG, researchers have engineered microorganisms with biosynthetic pathways to produce MEG. However, these pathways are challenging to implement, with loss of product yield, redox balance and excess biomass formation being some major obstacles to overcome. [0006] Thus there exists a need for improved biosynthesis pathways for the production of MEG and other chemical compounds useful in industrial and pharmaceutical applications. SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE [0007] The present application relates to recombinant microorganisms having one or more biosynthesis pathways for the production of monoethylene glycol (MEG) or glycolic acid (GA), or optionally, MEG (or GA) and one or more co-product from one or more hexose feedstock. [0008] The recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure combine the advantages of glucose based, fermentative MEG production and xylose based, fermentative MEG production. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure combine the advantages of xylose degradation biochemistry for high yielding MEG (or GA), or optionally, MEG (or GA) and one or more co product, formation with the advantages of readily available pure hexose sugar feedstocks. [0009] In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of xylose feedstock availability. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of non-affordable xylose feedstock price. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of xylose feedstock impurities. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of inefficient xylose uptake by a microorganism. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of glucose induced inhibition of xylose utilization. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of a shortage of ATP in MEG (or GA) production pathways. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of excess NADH in MEG (or GA) production pathways. In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure solves the problem of low overall product yield potential. [0010] In some embodiments, the recombinant microorganisms and methods of the present disclosure provide a lossless conversion of one or more hexose feedstock to one or more pentose- 5-phosphate intermediate. In some embodiments, the one or more pentose-5- phosphate intermediate is used for the production of MEG (or GA), or optionally, MEG (or GA) and one or more co-product, by one or more xylose based fermentation methods. In some embodiments, glucose flux is funneled into the pentose phosphate pathway instead of the glycolysis pathway. [001 1] In one aspect, the present disclosure provides a recombinant microorganism comprising one or more biochemical pathway that produces monoethylene glycol (MEG) (or glycolic acid) from one or more hexose feedstock via one or more pentose-5-phosphate intermediate. In one embodiment, one or more co-product is co-produced with MEG (or glycolic acid). In another embodiment, the one or more pentose- 5-phosphate intermediate is one or more of

Sucrose can be utilized as a major source of energy. Sucrose includes sugar beets, sugar cane, sorghum, maple sugar pineapple, ripe fruits and honey Corn syrup is recognized as high fructose corn syrup which gives the impression that it is very rich in fructose content but the difference between the fructose content in sucrose and high fructose corn syrup is only 5-10%. HFCS is rich in fructose because the sucrose extracted from the corn syrup is treated with the enzyme that converts some glucose in fructose which makes it more sweet.

    Isolation and characterization of a mutant liver aldolase in adult hereditary fructose intolerance. Identification of the enzyme variant by radioassay in tissue biopsy specimens Timothy M. Cox, … , Michael Camilleri, Arthur H. Burghes J Clin Invest. 1983;72(1):201-213. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI110958. Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) is a metabolic disorder caused by enzymic deficiency of aldolase B, a genetically distinct cytosolic isoenzyme expressed exclusively in liver, kidney, and intestine. The molecular basis of this enzyme defect has been investigated in three affected individuals from a nonconsanguineous kindred, in whom fructose-l- phosphate aldolase activities in liver or intestinal biopsy samples were reduced to 2-6% of mean control values. To identify a putative enzyme mutant in tissue extracts, aldolase B was purified from human liver by affinity chromatography and monospecific antibodies were prepared from antiserum raised in sheep. Immunodiffusion gels showed a single precipitin line common to pure enzyme and extracts of normal liver and intestine, but no reaction with extracts of brain, muscle, or HFI liver. However, weak positive staining for aldolase in hepatocyte and enterocyte cytosol was demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescence of HFI tissues. This was abolished by pretreatment with pure enzyme protein. Accordingly, a specific radioimmunoassay (detection limit 7.5 ng) was established to quantify immunoreactive aldolase B in human biopsy specimens. Extracts of tissue from affected patients gave 10-25% immunoreactive enzyme in control samples; immunoreactive aldolase in intestinal extracts from four heterozygotes was reduced (to 55%) when compared with seven samples from normal control subjects (P < 0.05). In extracts of HFI tissues, there was a sevenfold reduction in apparent absolute specific […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/110958/pdf Isolation and Characterization of a Mutant Liver Aldolase in Adult Hereditary Fructose Intolerance IDENTIFICATION OF THE ENZYME VARIANT BY RADIOASSAY IN TISSUE BIOPSY SPECIMENS TIMOTHY M.

Lieu †, Neil Kelekar †, Pratibha Bhalla † and Jiyeon Kim * Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL 60607, USA; [email protected] (E.L.L.); [email protected] (N.K.); [email protected] (P.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Abstract: History suggests that tasteful properties of sugar have been domesticated as far back as 8000 BCE. With origins in New Guinea, the cultivation of sugar quickly spread over centuries of conquest and trade. The product, which quickly integrated into common foods and onto kitchen tables, is sucrose, which is made up of glucose and fructose dimers. While sugar is commonly associated with flavor, there is a myriad of biochemical properties that explain how sugars as biological molecules function in physiological contexts. Substantial research and reviews have been done on the role of glucose in disease. This review aims to describe the role of its isomers, fructose and mannose, in the context of inborn errors of metabolism and other metabolic diseases, such as cancer. While structurally similar, fructose and mannose give rise to very differing biochemical properties and understanding these differences will guide the development of more effective therapies for metabolic disease. We will discuss pathophysiology linked to perturbations in fructose and mannose metabolism, diagnostic tools, and treatment options of the diseases.

    APPLIED AND ENVIRONMENTAL MICROBIOLOGY, Oct. 1979, p. 565-569 Vol. 38, No. 4 0099-2240/79/10-0565/05$02.00/0 Distribution of Membrane-Bound Monoamine Oxidase in Bacteria YOSHIKATSU MUROOKA,* NOBUYUKI DOI, AND TOKUYA HARADA The Institute ofScientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University, Yamadakami, Suita, Osaka (565), Japan Received for publication 22 March 1979 The distribution of membrane-bound monoamine oxidase in 30 strains of various bacteria was studied. Monoamine oxidase was determined by using an ammonia-selective electrode; analyses were sensitive and easy to perform. The enzyme was found in some strains of the family Enterobacteriaceae, such as Klebsiella, Enterobacter, Escherichia, Salmonella, Serratia, and Proteus. Among strains of other families of bacteria tested, only Pseudomonas aeruginosa IFO 3901, Micrococcus luteus IFO 12708, and Brevibacterium ammoniagenes IAM 1641 had monoamine oxidase activity. In all of these bacteria except B. ammoniagenes, monoamine oxidase was induced by tyramine and was highly specific for tyramine, octopamine, dopamine, and norepinephrine. The enzyme in two strains oxidized histamine or benzylamine. Correlations between the distri- butions of membrane-bound monoamine oxidase and arylsulfatase synthesized in the presence of tyramine were discussed. Monoamine oxidase catalyzes the oxidative monoamine oxidase had broad substrate speci- deamination of monoamines by the following ficity, the enzyme in bacteria can be assayed reaction: R-CH2NH2 + 02+ H20 -+ R-CHO + conveniently by potentiometric measurement of NH3 + H202. ammonia formation with an ammonia-selective The enzyme usually has a broad substrate electrode by the method used for the brain en- specificity in animals and plays a major role in zyme by Meyerson et al.

Although urea cycle enzyme levels rise in response to a high protein diet, signaling networks that sense dietary protein intake and trigger changes in expression of urea cycle genes have not been identified. The aim of this study was to identify signaling pathway(s) that respond to changes in protein intake and regulate expression of urea cycle genes in mice and human hepatocytes. Mice were adapted to either control or high (HP) protein diets followed by isolation of liver protein and mRNA and integrated analysis of the proteomic and transcriptome profiles.
