Regulation of Glutarate Catabolism by GntR Family Regulator CsiR and LysR Family Regulator GcdR in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Pseudomonas putida</named-content> KT2440

ABSTRACT Glutarate, a metabolic intermediate in the catabolism of several amino acids and aromatic compounds, can be catabolized through both the glutarate hydroxylation pathway and the glutaryl-coenzyme A (glutaryl-CoA) dehydrogenation pathway in Pseudomonas putida KT2440. The elucidation of the re...

In this study, it was found that a GntR family protein, CsiR, and a LysR family protein, GcdR, regulate the catabolism of glutarate by repressing the transcription of csiD and lhgO, two key genes in the glutarate hydroxylation pathway, and by activating the transcription of gcdH and gcoT, two key genes in the glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenation pathway, respectively.
