L-serine degradation in Escherichia coli K-12: a combination of L-serine, glycine, and leucine used as a source of carbon.

E B Newman and C Walker

ABSTRACT

Escherichia coli K-12 strain CU1008 cannot use L-serine as the sole carbon source, but it could use L-serine as an auxiliary carbon source with glucose, L-alanine, or pyruvate and could derive energy from L-serine to support oxygen uptake. CU1008 grew with L-serine if it was also provided with glycine and leucine. These may act by increasing the available activity of L-serine deaminase; other explanations are also explored.
