Indoleacetic acid was produced from tryptophan by only three of 23 intestinal anaerobes studied. Evidence is presented to show that the formation of indoleacetic acid proceeds through the intermediate, indolepyruvic acid, via transamination with alpha-ketoglutarate rather than by tryptamine pathway.
在所研究的23种肠道厌氧菌中,只有3种能从色氨酸产生吲哚乙酸。有证据表明,吲哚乙酸的形成是通过中间产物吲哚丙酮酸,经由与α-酮戊二酸的转氨作用,而不是通过色胺途径。
