Folate BiosynthesisEscherichia coli
The biosynthesis of folic acid begins as a product of purine nucleotides de novo biosynthesis pathway. Purine nucleotides are involved in a reaction with water through a GTP cyclohydrolase 1 protein complex, resulting in a hydrogen ion, formic acid and 7,8-dihydroneopterin 3-triphosphate. The latter compound is dephosphorylated through a dihydroneopterin triphosphate pyrophosphohydrolase resulting in the release of a pyrophosphate, hydrogen ion and 7,8-dihydroneopterin 3-phosphate. The latter product reacts with water spontaneously resulting in the release of a phosphate and a 7,8 -dihydroneopterin. 7,8 -dihydroneopterin reacts with a dihydroneopterin aldolase, releasing a glycoaldehyde and 6-hydroxymethyl-7,9-dihydropterin. Continuing, 6-hydroxymethyl-7,9-dihydropterin is phosphorylated with a ATP-driven 6-hydroxymethyl-7,8-dihydropterin pyrophosphokinase resulting in a (2-amino-4-hydroxy-7,8-dihydropteridin-6-yl)methyl diphosphate.
Chorismate is metabolized by reacting with L-glutamine through a 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate synthase resulting in L-glutamic acid and 4-amino-4-deoxychorismate. The latter product is then catalyzed via an aminodeoxychorismate lyase resulting in pyruvic acid, hydrogen ion and p-aminobenzoic acid.
(2-amino-4-hydroxy-7,8-dihydropteridin-6-yl)methyl diphosphate and p-aminobenzoic acid react with the help of a dihydropteroate synthase resulting in pyrophosphate and 7,8-dihydropteroic acid. This compound then reacts with L-glutamic acid through an ATP driven bifunctional folylpolyglutamate synthease / dihydrofolate synthease resulting in a 7,8-dihydrofolate monoglutamate. 7,8-dihydrofolate monoglutamate is then reduced via a NADPH mediated dihydrofolate reductase resulting in a tetrahydrofate which will continue and become a metabolite of the folate pathway

Glutathione MetabolismEscherichia coli
The biosynthesis of glutathione starts with the introduction of L-glutamic acid through either a glutamate:sodium symporter, glutamate / aspartate : H+ symporter GltP or a
glutamate / aspartate ABC transporter. Once in the cytoplasm, L-glutamice acid reacts with L-cysteine through an ATP glutamate-cysteine ligase resulting in gamma-glutamylcysteine. This compound reacts which Glycine through an ATP driven glutathione synthetase thus catabolizing Glutathione.
This compound is metabolized through a spontaneous reaction with an oxidized glutaredoxin resulting in a reduced glutaredoxin and an oxidized glutathione. This compound is reduced by a NADPH glutathione reductase resulting in a glutathione.
Glutathione can then be degraded into various different glutathione containing compounds by reacting with a napthalene or Bromobenzene-2,3-oxide through a glutathione S-transferase.

Fucose and Rhamnose DegradationEscherichia coli
In E. coli, L-fucose and L-rhamnose are metabolized through parallel pathways. The pathways converge after their corresponding aldolase reactions yielding the same products: lactaldehye. Proton symporter can facilitate the import of alpha-L-rhamnopyranose, methylpentose and beta-L-rhamnopyranose into cell for further metabolism, which allow E.coli to grow with carbon and energy. For alpha-L-rhamnopyranose, it is isomerized by a l-rhamnose mutarotase resulting in a beta-L-rhamnopyranose which is then isomerized into a keto-L-rhamnulose by a l-rhamnose isomerase. The keto-L-rhamnulose spontaneously changes into a L-rhamnulofuranose which is phosphorylated by a rhamnulokinase resulting in a L-rhamnulose 1-phosphate. This compound reacts with a rhamnulose-1-phosphate aldolase resulting in a dihydroxyacetone phosphate and a lactaldehyde. For beta-L-rhamnopyranose, it is isomerized by a L-fucose mutarotase resulting in a alpha-L-fucopyranose. This compound is then isomerized by an L-fucose isomerase resulting in a L-fuculose which in turn gets phosphorylated into an L-fuculose 1-phosphate through an L-fuculokinase. The compound L-fuculose 1-phosphate reacts with an L-fuculose phosphate aldolase through a dihydroxyacetone phosphate and a lactaldehyde. Two pathways can both be used for degrading L-lactaldehyde, which the aerobic pathway facilitates the conversion from L-lactic acid to pyruvic acid via L-lactate dehydrogenase, and the anaerobic pathway facilitates conversion from lactaldehyde to propane-1,2-diol via lactaldehyde reductase. Under aerobic conditions, L-lactaldehyde is oxidized in two steps to pyruvate, thereby channeling all the carbons from fucose or rhamnose into central metabolic pathways. Under anaerobic conditions, L-lactaldehyde is reduced to L-1,2-propanediol, which is secreted into the environment.

Phenylalanine BiosynthesisEscherichia coli
The phenylalaline biosynthesis pathways is connected with the chorismate biosynthesis pathway. Chorismate biosynthesis produce the chorismate, which further be converted to prephenate by P-protein. Combined with cofactor, H+, prephenate has been further converted to phenylpyruvic acid by P-protein with generated water and carbon dioxide. Phenylalanine transaminase catalyzes phenylpyruvic acid to phenylalaline, and also convert glutamic acid to oxoglutaric acid. Phenylalaline will be further used in phenylalaline metabolism.

D-Alanine MetabolismEscherichia coli
L-Alanine is an essential component of both proteins and Peptidoglycan. Peptidoglycan also contain about three molecules of D-alanine for every L-alanine, comprising of only about 10% of the total alanine synthesized flowing into peptidoglycan. (More info can be found at L-alanine metabolism pathway: PW000788 or SMP0000810) In this pathway, D-amino acid dehydrogenase degrades D-alanine to form pyruvate, pyruvate then serving as a source of carbon for central metabolism. D-alanine can be formed by either biosynthetic alanine racemase or catabolic alanine racemase. D-alanine is required for forming cell wall peptidoglycan (murein). D-alanine is metabolized by ATP driven D-alanine ligase A and B resulting in D-alanyl-D-alanine. This product is incorporated into peptidoglycan biosynthesis.

Aspartate MetabolismEscherichia coli
Aspartate is synthesized from and broken down to oxaloacetate, a TCA cycle intermediate, via a reversible transamination reaction with glutamate. This reaction is catalyzed by the aminotransferase AspC or TyrB. Aspartate is a component of proteins and is involved in many biosyntheses pathways like NAD biosynthesis and beta-alanine metabolism. Aspartate can also be synthesized from fumaric acid through an aspartate ammonia lyase. Aspartate also participates in the synthesis of L-asparagine through two different methods, either through aspartate ammonia ligase or asparagine synthetase B. Aspartate is also a precursor of fumaric acid. Again it has two possible ways of synthesizing it. First set of reactions follows an adenylo succinate synthetase that yields adenylsuccinic acid and then adenylosuccinate lyase in turns leads to fumaric acid. The second way is through argininosuccinate synthase that yields argininosuccinic acid and then argininosuccinate lyase in turns leads to fumaric acid.

Lipoic Acid MetabolismEscherichia coli
Lipoic acid metabolism starts with caprylic acid being introduced into the cytoplasm, however, no transporter has been identified yet. i) Once caprylic acid is in the cytoplasm, it can react with a holo-acp through an ATP-driven 2-acylglycerophosphoethanolamine acyltransferase/acyl-ACP synthetase resulting in pyrophosphate, AMP, and octanoyl-[acp]. The latter compound can also be obtained from palmitate biosynthesis. ii) Octanoyl-acp then interacts with a lipoyl-carrier protein L-lysine through an octanoyltransferase resulting in a hydrogen ion, a holo-acyl-acp, and an N6-(octanoyl)lysine. iii) N6-(octanoyl)lysine reacts with an S-adenosylmethionine, a sulfurated[sulfur carrier], and a reduced ferredoxin through a lipoate-protein ligase A, resulting in a 5-deoxyadenosine, an L-methionine, an unsulfurated [sulfur carrier], oxidized ferredoxin, and protein N6-(octanoyl)lysine.
Caprylic acid can also interact with ATP and a lipoyl-carrier protein-L-lysine through a lipoate-protein ligase A resulting in an AMP, pyrophosphate, hydrogen ion, and protein N6-(octanoyl)lysine. The latter compound reacts with an S-adenosylmethionine, a sulfurated[sulfur carrier] and a reduced ferredoxin through a lipoate-protein ligase A, resulting in a 5-deoxyadenosine, an L-methionine, an unsulfurated [sulfur carrier], oxidized ferredoxin, and a protein N6-(octanoyl)lysine.
R-Lipoic acid can be absorbed from the environment, as seen in studies by Morris TW. In this pathway, the lipoyl-protein ligase LplA utilizes pre-existing lipoate that has been imported from outside the cell, and thus catalyzes a salvage pathway. Lipoic acid interacts with ATP and hydrogen ion through a lipoyl-protein ligase A, resulting in a pyrophosphate and a lipoyl-AMP (lipoyl-adenylate). This compound then interacts with a lipoyl-carrier protein-L-lysine through a lipoate-protein ligase A resulting in an AMP, a hydrogen ion, and a protein N6-(lipoyl) lysine. It has been suggested that the conversion of octanoylated-domains into lipoylated ones described in this pathway may be a type of a repair pathway, activated only if the other lipoate biosynthetic pathways are malfunctioning.

Either of these compounds interacts with a water molecule and a hydrogen ion through a fused diaminohydroxyphosphoribosylaminopyrimidine deaminase / 5-amino-6-(5-phosphoribosylamino)uracil reductase resulting in an ammonium and 5-amino-6-(5-phospho-D-ribosylamino)uracil. This compound then interacts with a hydrogen ion through a NADPH dependent fused diaminohydroxyphosphoribosylaminopyrimidine deaminase / 5-amino-6-(5-phosphoribosylamino)uracil reductase resulting in the release of a NADP and a 5-amino-6-(5-phospho-D-ribitylamino)uracil. This compound then interacts with a water molecule through a 5-amino-6-(5-phospho-D-ribitylamino)uracil phosphatase resulting in a release of a phosphate, and a 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil.
D-ribulose 5-phosphate interacts with a3,4-dihydroxy-2-butanone 4-phosphate synthase resulting in the release of formic acid, a hydrogen ion and 1-deoxy-L-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate.
A 5-amino-6-(D-ribitylamino)uracil and 1-deoxy-L-glycero-tetrulose 4-phosphate interact through a 6,7-dimethyl-8-ribityllumazine synthase resulting in the release of 2 water molecules, a phosphate, a hydrogen ion and a 6,7-dimethyl-8-(1-D-ribityl)lumazine.
The latter compound then interacts with a hydrogen ion through a riboflavin synthase resulting in the release of a riboflavin and a 5-amino-6-(d-ribitylamino)uracil.
The riboflavin is then phosphorylated through an ATP dependent riboflavin kinase resulting in the release of a ADP, a hydrogen ion and a FLAVIN MONONUCLEOTIDE.
The flavin mononucleotide interad with a hydrogen ion and an ATP through the riboflavin kinase resulting in the release of a pyrophosphate and Flavin Adenine dinucleotide. This compound is then exported into the periplasm through a FMN/FAD exporter.
