lüll Malonate metabolism: biochemistry, molecular biology, physiology, and industrial application Kim YSJ Biochem Mol Biol 2002[Sep]; 35 (5): 443-51Malonate is a three-carbon dicarboxylic acid. It is well known as a competitive inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase. It occurs naturally in biological systems, such as legumes and developing rat brains, which indicates that it may play an important role in symbiotic nitrogen metabolism and brain development. Recently, enzymes that are related to malonate metabolism were discovered and characterized. The genes that encode the enzymes were isolated, and the regulation of their expression was also studied. The mutant bacteria, in which the malonate-metabolizing gene was deleted, lost its primary function, symbiosis, between Rhizobium leguminosarium bv trifolii and clover. This suggests that malonate metabolism is essential in symbiotic nitrogen metabolism, at least in clover nodules. In addition to these, the genes matB and matC have been successfully used for generation of the industrial strain of Streptomyces for the production of antibiotics.|*Bacterial Proteins[MESH]|Amidohydrolases/chemistry/metabolism[MESH]|Base Sequence[MESH]|Carboxy-Lyases/chemistry/metabolism[MESH]|DNA[MESH]|Fabaceae/metabolism/microbiology[MESH]|Industrial Microbiology[MESH]|Malonates/chemistry/*metabolism[MESH]|Malonyl Coenzyme A/biosynthesis[MESH]|Molecular Sequence Data[MESH]|Protein Structure, Tertiary[MESH]|Rhizobium/genetics/metabolism[MESH]|Symbiosis[MESH] |
