Overlapping riboflavin supply pathways in bacteria
(2017)
Riboflavin derivatives are essential cofactors for a myriad of flavoproteins. In bacteria, flavins importance extends beyond their role as intracellular protein cofactors, as secreted flavins are a key metabolite in a ...
Extensive Identification of Bacterial Riboflavin Transporters and Their Distribution across Bacterial Species
(2015)
Riboflavin, the precursor for the cofactors flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide, is an essential metabolite in all organisms. While the functions for de novo riboflavin biosynthesis and riboflavin ...
Overview on the Bacterial Iron-Riboflavin Metabolic AxisOverview on the Bacterial Iron-Riboflavin Metabolic Axis
(2018)
Redox reactions are ubiquitous in biological processes. Enzymes involved in redox metabolism often use cofactors in order to facilitate electron-transfer reactions. Common redox cofactors include micronutrients such as ...
Differential regulation of riboflavin supply genes in Vibrio cholerae
(2017)
Background: Riboflavin is the precursor of important redox cofactors such as flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide, required for several biological processes. Vibrio cholerae, a pathogenic bacterium ...
Transcriptomics reveals a cross-modulatory effect between riboflavin and iron and outlines responses to riboflavin biosynthesis and uptake in &ITVibrio cholerae&IT
(2018)
Vibrio cholerae, a pandemic diarrheagenic bacterium, is able to synthesize the essential vitamin riboflavin through the riboflavin biosynthetic pathway (RBP) and also to internalize it through the RibN importer. In bacteria, ...
Contribution of riboflavin supply pathways to Vibrio cholerae in different environments
(2017)
Background: The waterborne diarrheagenic bacterium Vibrio cholerae, cause of the pandemic cholera disease, thrives in a variety of environments ranging from estuarine waters to the human intestinal tract. This species has ...
