D-Glucarate and D-Galactarate Degradation

Escherichia coli DH1
Galactarate is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid analog of D-galactose. E. coli can use both diacid sugars galactarate and D-glucarate as the sole source of carbon for growth. The initial step in the degradation of galactarate is its dehydration to 5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D-glucarate(2--) by galactarate dehydratase. Glucaric acid can also be dehydrated by a glucarate dehydratase resulting in water and 5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D-glucarate(2--). The 5-dehydro-4-deoxy-D-glucarate(2--) is then metabolized by a alpha-dehydro-beta-deoxy-D-glucarate aldolase resulting in pyruvic acid and a tartonate semialdehyde. Pyruvic acid interacts with coenzyme A through a NAD driven Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex resulting in a carbon dioxide, an NADH and an acetyl-CoA. The tartronate semialdehyde interacts with a hydrogen ion through a NADPH driven tartronate semialdehyde reductase resulting in a NADP and a glyceric acid. The glyceric acid is phosphorylated by an ATP-driven glycerate kinase 2 resulting in an ADP, a hydrogen ion and a 2-phosphoglyceric acid. The latter compound is dehydrated by an enolase resulting in the release of water and a phosphoenolpyruvic acid. The phosphoenolpyruvic acid interacts with a hydrogen ion through an ADP driven pyruvate kinase resulting in an ATP and a pyruvic acid. The pyruvic acid then interacts with water and an ATP through a phosphoenolpyruvate synthetase resulting in the release of a hydrogen ion, a phosphate, an AMP and a Phosphoenolpyruvic acid.

D-Glucuronate degradation

Escherichia coli str. K-12 substr. MG1655
D-Glucuronate degradation is a metabolic pathway in bacteria that allows the utilization of D-glucuronate, a sugar acid commonly found in plant cell walls and in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans such as heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. D-glucuronate is derived from the breakdown of plant-derived polysaccharides, especially from the hydrolysis of hemicellulose and pectin, or from the degradation of glycosaminoglycans in animal tissues. Once in the environment, D-glucuronate is transported into bacterial cells via specific transport systems, typically a **sodium-coupled symporter** or **ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporter**. These transporters actively import D-glucuronate into the cytoplasm, utilizing either a proton gradient or ATP hydrolysis for energy. After entry, D-glucuronate is converted into D-glucuronate-6-phosphate by the enzyme D-glucuronate kinase. It can then be further metabolized via a series of enzymatic steps, eventually entering central metabolic pathways like the pentose phosphate pathway or glycolysis. This pathway is especially important in bacteria that inhabit plant-rich environments, where D-glucuronate serves as a key carbon and energy source, contributing to the degradation of plant materials and the recycling of carbon.

D-Glutamine and D-Glutamate Metabolism

Bacteroides intestinalis
L-Glutamine is transported into the cytoplasm through a glutamine ABC transporter. Once inside, L-glutamine is metabolized with glutaminase to produce an L-glutamic acid. This process can be reversed through a glutamine synthetase resulting in L-glutamine. L-glutamic acid can also be transported into the cytoplasm through various methods: a glutamate/aspartate:H+ symporter GltP, a glutamate:sodium symporter, or a glutamate/aspartate ABC transporter. L-Glutamic acid can proceed to L-glutamate metabolism or it can undergo a reversible reaction through a glutamate racemase resulting in D-glutamic acid. This compound can also be obtained from D-glutamine interacting with a glutaminase. D-Glutamic acid reacts with UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine through an ATP-driven UDP-N-acetylmuramoylalanine-D-glutamate ligase resulting in a UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamate which is then integrated into peptidoglycan biosynthesis. UDP-N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine comes from the amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism product, UDP-N-acetylmuraminate which reacts with L-alanine through an ATP-driven UDP-N-acetylmuramate-L-alanine ligase.
