Mannitol is dissimilated by Aerobacter aerogenes via an inducible pathway initiated by a phosphotransferase system dependent upon phosphoenolpyruvate as the phosphoryl donor. A mutational block in this pathway can be suppressed either at the phenotypic level by induction of d-arabitol dehydrogenase, an enzyme fortuitously capable of converting mannitol to fructose, or genotypically by a constitutive mutation in the d-arabitol system.
产气气杆菌通过由磷酸转移酶系统启动的诱导途径异化甘露醇,该磷酸转移酶系统依赖磷酸烯醇丙酮酸作为磷酰基供体。该途径中的突变阻断可以在表型水平上通过诱导d-阿拉伯糖醇脱氢酶来抑制,d-阿拉伯糖醇脱氢酶是一种偶然能够将甘露醇转化为果糖的酶,或者在基因型水平上通过d-阿拉伯糖醇系统中的组成型突变来抑制。
