Cloning of the Lactococcus lactis adhE Gene, Encoding a Multifunctional Alcohol Dehydrogenase, by Complementation of a Fermentative Mutant of Escherichia coli

Abstract: The Lactococcus lactis adhE gene, which encodes a multifunctional alcohol dehydrogenase, has been cloned and characterized. A DNA fragment encoding the putative alcohol dehydrogenase domain of the AdhE protein was cloned by screening anL. lactis genomic library in a fermentative mutant ofEscherichia coli and selecting for the ability to grow anaerobically. Further analysis of the clone obtained allowed the cloning of the entire adhE gene sequence. Analysis ofadhE expression in L. lactis during anaerobiosis sho… Show more

“…ldh is expressed 37-and 14-fold higher than ldhX and ldhB, respectively; gapB is expressed seven-fold higher than gapA; and adhE is expressed 10-fold higher than adhA. These results are consistent with those obtained with other lactococcal strains [21][22][23]. For instance, the K M value of LDH of strain ATCC 19435 for NADH (Table 1) was identical to the LDH coded by ldh (K M = 0.06 mm), but not to the one coded by ldhB (K M = 0.2 mm), as found in L. lactis strain NZ9000 and strain NZ9015 [21], respectively.…”

“…different ways to reoxidize the NADH,H 1 produced during glycolysis. The transcriptional induction of the adhE gene in L. lactis was previously reported to take place under conditions leading to medium acidification (24). AdhE overproduction in M17 also suggests that the bacterium changes its metabolism from the production of acid to neutral compounds.…”

“…SPBC29A3.19 has 38% overall identity to Lactococcus lactis orfb (Arnau et al , 1998) a multifunctional alcohol dehydrogenase that catalyses the reduction of acetaldehyde to ethanol during fermentation. Five other alcohol dehydrogenases have been identified in S. pombe.…”
