We show that epd (gapB) mutants lacking an erythrose 4-phosphate (E4P) dehydrogenase are impaired for growth on some media and contain less pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate (PMP) than their epd+ parent. In contrast to a previous report, we found that gapA epd double mutants lacking the glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and E4P dehydrogenases are auxotrophic for pyridoxine. These results implicate the GapA and Epd dehydrogenases in de novo PLP and PMP coenzyme biosynthesis.
我们发现,缺乏磷酸赤藓糖(E4P)脱氢酶的epd(gapB)突变体在某些培养基上生长受损,并且与它们的epd+亲本相比,所含的磷酸吡哆醛(PLP)和磷酸吡哆胺(PMP)更少。与之前的一份报告相反,我们发现缺乏3-磷酸甘油醛和E4P脱氢酶的gapA epd双突变体对吡哆醇营养缺陷。这些结果表明GapA和Epd脱氢酶参与了从头合成PLP和PMP辅酶的过程。
