  • Thermophilic Bacteria Are Potential Sources of Novel Rieske Non-Heme
    Chakraborty et al. AMB Expr (2017) 7:17 DOI 10.1186/s13568-016-0318-5 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Thermophilic bacteria are potential sources of novel Rieske non‑heme iron oxygenases Joydeep Chakraborty, Chiho Suzuki‑Minakuchi, Kazunori Okada and Hideaki Nojiri* Abstract Rieske non-heme iron oxygenases, which have a Rieske-type [2Fe–2S] cluster and a non-heme catalytic iron center, are an important family of oxidoreductases involved mainly in regio- and stereoselective transformation of a wide array of aromatic hydrocarbons. Though present in all domains of life, the most widely studied Rieske non-heme iron oxygenases are found in mesophilic bacteria. The present study explores the potential for isolating novel Rieske non- heme iron oxygenases from thermophilic sources. Browsing the entire bacterial genome database led to the identifi‑ cation of 45 homologs from thermophilic bacteria distributed mainly among Chloroflexi, Deinococcus–Thermus and Firmicutes. Thermostability, measured according to the aliphatic index, showed higher values for certain homologs compared with their mesophilic relatives. Prediction of substrate preferences indicated that a wide array of aromatic hydrocarbons could be transformed by most of the identified oxygenase homologs. Further identification of putative genes encoding components of a functional oxygenase system opens up the possibility of reconstituting functional thermophilic Rieske non-heme iron oxygenase systems with novel properties.

  • Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway
    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] 10 Protein & Peptide Letters, 2014, 21, 10-14 Medium-Chain Dehydrogenases with New Specificity: Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway Yanbin Wu, Jeffrey Arciola, and Nicole Horenstein* Department of Chemistry, University of Florida, Gainesville Florida, 32611-7200, USA Abstract: Azasugar biosynthesis involves a key dehydrogenase that oxidizes 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol to the 6-oxo compound. The genes encoding homologous NAD-dependent dehydrogenases from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42, B. atrophaeus 1942, and Paenibacillus polymyxa SC2 were codon-optimized and expressed in BL21(DE3) Escherichia coli. Relative to the two Bacillus enzymes, the enzyme from P. polymyxa proved to have superior catalytic properties with a Vmax of 0.095 ± 0.002 mol/min/mg, 59-fold higher than the B. amyloliquefaciens enzyme. The preferred substrate is 2- amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol, though mannitol is accepted as a poor substrate at 3% of the relative rate. Simple amino alco- hols were also accepted as substrates at lower rates. Sequence alignment suggested D283 was involved in the enzyme’s specificity for aminopolyols. Point mutant D283N lost its amino specificity, accepting mannitol at 45% the rate observed for 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol. These results provide the first characterization of this class of zinc-dependent medium chain dehydrogenases that utilize aminopolyol substrates. Keywords: Aminopolyol, azasugar, biosynthesis, dehydrogenase, mannojirimycin, nojirimycin. INTRODUCTION are sufficient to convert fructose-6-phosphate into manno- jirimycin [9].

The metabolic alterations caused by these infections have never been directly compared and contrasted. We investigated groups of HBV-positive, HCV-positive, and uninfected healthy controls using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses of their plasma and urine. A robust regression analysis of the metabolite data was conducted to reveal correlations between metabolite pairs. Ten metabolite correlations appeared for HBV plasma and urine, with 18 for HCV plasma and urine, none of which were present in the controls.

Abstract: Metabolic regulation is the key mechanism implicated in plants maintaining cell osmotic potential under drought stress. Understanding drought stress tolerance in plants will have a signif- icant impact on food security in the face of increasingly harsh climatic conditions. Plant primary and secondary metabolites and metabolic genes are key factors in drought tolerance through their involvement in diverse metabolic pathways. Physio-biochemical and molecular strategies involved in plant tolerance mechanisms could be exploited to increase plant survival under drought stress. This review summarizes the most updated findings on primary and secondary metabolites involved in drought stress. We also examine the application of useful metabolic genes and their molecular Citation: Kumar, M.; Kumar Patel, responses to drought tolerance in plants and discuss possible strategies to help plants to counteract M.; Kumar, N.; Bajpai, A.B.; Siddique, unfavorable drought periods.
