General description: |
3-Deoxy-2-keto-6-phosphogluconic acid (KDPG) is a primary metabolite of the Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway. It plays an important role in cyanobacteria, algae, higher plants, etc and is estimated to be utilized by 27% of the heterotrophic prokaryotic microorganisms for sugar and sugar acid degradation. Its production using the Entner-Doudoroff dehydratase (EDD) from Caulobacter crescentus (CcEDD) is investigated. |
