Popis: | According to incorporations of 13 labelled glucose, 2-C-methyl-d-erythritol was most likely synthesized by Corynebacterium ammoniagenes from glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and from pyruvate via a condensation and a rearrangement. The observed labelling patterns for methylerythritol were identical with those of the isoprenic units of dihydromenaquinones from the same bacterium, suggesting for this tetrol an intermediate role in the non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis. |
