A Broad Spectrum Racemase in Pseudomonas putida KT2440 Plays a Key Role in Amino Acid Catabolism
The broad-spectrum amino acid racemase (Alr) of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 preferentially interconverts the l- and d-stereoisomers of Lys and Arg. Despite conservation of broad-spectrum racemases among bacteria, little is known regarding their physiological role. Here we explore potential functional...
