| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A novel oxidation of pentonates to 4-keto- pentonates was analyzed with Gluconobacter thailandicus NBRC 3258. Pentonate 4-dehydrogenase activity in the membrane fraction was readily inactivated by EDTA and it was reactivated by the addition of PQQ and Ca2+. The enzyme oxidized pentonates to 4-keto-pentonates at the optimum pH of 4.0. In addition, the enzyme oxidized fructose to 5-keto- fructose, psicose to 5-keto-psicose, including the other polyols such as, glycerol, ribitol, arabitol, and sorbitol. Thus, pentonate 4-dehydrogenase was found to be identical with glycerol dehydrogenase (GLDH). The reaction versatility of quinoprotein GLDH was notified in this study. Oxidative fermentation of hydroxypyruvate was examined and two oxidizing systems have been indicated: System 1: Glycerol - Dihydroxyacetone - Hydroxypyruvic aldehyde - Hydroxypyruvic acid. System 2: Glycerol - Glyceric acid - Hydroxymalonaldehyde - Hydroxymalonic acid
