purF mutants of Salmonella typhimurium are known to require a source of both purine and thiamine; however, exogenous pantothenate may be substituted for the thiamine requirement. We show here that the effect of pantothenate is prevented by blocks in the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway, gnd (encoding gluconate 6-phosphate [6-P] dehydrogenase) or zwf (encoding glucose 6-P dehydrogenase). We further show that the defects caused by these mutations can be overcome by increasing ribose 5-P, suggesting that ribose 5-P may play a role in the ability of pantothenate to substitute for thiamine.
已知鼠伤寒沙门氏菌的purF突变体需要嘌呤和硫胺素来源;然而,外源性泛酸盐可替代硫胺素需求。我们在此表明,戊糖磷酸氧化途径中的阻断,即gnd(编码葡萄糖酸6-磷酸[6-P]脱氢酶)或zwf(编码葡萄糖6-P脱氢酶),可阻止泛酸盐的作用。我们进一步表明,通过增加5-磷酸核糖可克服这些突变导致的缺陷,这表明5-磷酸核糖可能在泛酸盐替代硫胺素的能力中发挥作用。
