Energy conservation by pyrroloquinoline quinol-linked xylose oxidation in Pseudomonas putida NCTC 10936 during carbon-limited growth in chemostat culture.

FEMS Microbiology Letters 1993 Februrary 16
When grown in carbon source-limited chemostat cultures with lactate or glucose as the carbon and energy source and xylose as an additional source of reducing equivalents. Pseudomonas putida NCTC 10936 oxidized xylose to xylonolactone and xylonate. No other products were formed from this pentose, nor was it incorporated into biomass. The presence of xylose in these cultures resulted in higher Yglucose and Ylactate values as compared to cultures without xylose indicating that biologically useful energy was conserved during the periplasmic oxidation of xylose. As the Y0 values for growth on glucose or on lactate alone were equal to the Y0 values for growth with xylose as co-substrate, it is concluded that for glucose- or lactate-limited growth energy conservation by PQQH2 oxidation is as efficient as by NADH2 oxidation.
