Widespread bacterial lysine degradation proceeding via glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate

Lysine degradation and the role of the metabolites glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate have remained elusive in many organisms including Escherichia coli. Here authors present a pathway for catabolism of lysine to succinate in E. coli involving glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate as intermediates.
