Chimeric Structure of the NAD(P)+- and NADP+-dependent Malic Enzymes ofRhizobium (Sinorhizobium) meliloti *
Abstract
Malic enzymes catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of malate to pyruvate in conjunction with the reduction of a nicotinamide cofactor. We determined the DNA sequence and transcriptional start sites of the genes encoding the diphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent malic enzyme (DME, EC 1.1.1.39) and the triphosphopyridine nucleotide-dependent malic enzyme (TME, EC 1.1.1. 40) of Rhizobium (Sinorhizobium) meliloti. The predicted DME and TME …
