| Popis: | The dynamic behavior of the metabolism of Corynebacterium glutamicum during L-glutamic acid fermentation, was evaluated by quantitative analysis of the evolution of intracellular metabolites and key enzyme concentrations. Glutamate production was induced by an increase of the temperature and a final concentration of 80 g/l was attained. During the production phase, various other compounds, notably lactate, trehalose, and DHA were secreted to the medium. Intracellular metabolites analysis showed important variations of glycolytic intermediates and NADH, NAD coenzymes levels throughout the production phase. Two phenomena occur during the production phase which potentially provoke a decrease in the glutamate yield: Both the intracellular concentrations of glycolytic intermediates and the NADH/NAD ratio increase significantly during the period in which the overall metabolic rates decline. This correlates with the decrease in glutamate yield due in part to the production of lactate and also to the period of the fermentation in which growth no longer occurred. |
