  • Title: [Bacterial ribulose monophosphate pathway and formaldehyde assimilation].
    Author: Song ZB, Chen LM, Li KZ, Pan ZB.
    Journal: Wei Sheng Wu Xue Bao; 2007 Feb; 47(1):168-72. PubMed ID: 17436647.
    Abstract:
    Ribulose monophosphate pathway (RuMP), which was originally found in methylotrophic bacteria, is now recognized as a metabolic pathway widespread in most bacteria and involved in formaldehyde assimilation and detoxification. 3-Hexulose-6-phosphate synthase (HPS) and 6-phospho-3-hexuloisomerase (PHI) are the key enzymes of this pathway. This review describes the physiological significance of RuMP pathway derived from a variety of bacteria, the organizations and expressional regulations of HPS and PHI genes and the perspectives for applications of the two genes.
