Gluconobacter oxydans possesses a unique organization of metabolic systems, which are characterized by reduction of major dissimilation pathways, surface localization of main oxidative enzymes responsible for partial oxidation of carbon substrates, high performance of electron-transport chains, and accumulation of partially oxidized metabolites in the medium. These features allow us to use the cells of these microorganisms in biotechnology for production of several food products and medicines. The use of G. oxydans in biosensors for estimation of concentrations of sugars, aldoses and polyalcohols is promising. Physiological and biochemical features of these microorganisms enabling their use in biotechnology and receptor elements of biosensors are reviewed.
氧化葡萄糖杆菌拥有独特的代谢系统组织架构,其特点是主要异化途径减少、负责碳底物部分氧化的主要氧化酶定位于细胞表面、电子传递链性能高效以及在培养基中积累部分氧化的代谢产物。这些特性使我们能够在生物技术中利用这些微生物的细胞来生产多种食品和药品。将氧化葡萄糖杆菌用于生物传感器以估算糖、醛糖和多元醇的浓度很有前景。本文综述了这些微生物能够用于生物技术的生理生化特性以及生物传感器的受体元件。
