Metabolic Regulation as a Consequence of Anaerobic 5-Methylthioadenosine Recycling in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Rhodospirillum rubrum</named-content>

ABSTRACT Rhodospirillum rubrum possesses a novel oxygen-independent, aerobic methionine salvage pathway (MSP) for recycling methionine from 5-methylthioadenosine (MTA), the MTA-isoprenoid shunt. This organism can also metabolize MTA as a sulfur source under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that the...
