Fig. 1From: Metabolic engineering of a xylose pathway for biotechnological production of glycolate in Escherichia coliThe metabolic pathway for production of glycolate from xylose in glycolaldehyde oxidation pathway and glyoxylate reduction pathway. Enzymes associated with the reactions were showed and the over expressions of which were marked in bold. d-xylose was converted to d-xylonate by xylose dehydrogenase (xdh) and xylonolactonase (xylC) from C. crescentus. All other genes were from the native E. coli BL21(DE3)Back to article page
