Three catabolic enzymes, UlaD, UlaE, and UlaF, are involved in a pathway leading to fermentation of l-ascorbate under anaerobic conditions. UlaD catalyzes a beta-keto acid decarboxylation reaction to produce L-xylulose-5-phosphate, which undergoes successive epimerization reactions with UlaE (L-xylulose-5-phosphate 3-epimerase) and

3-Keto-L-gulonate 6-phosphate decarboxylase (KGPDC) and orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (OMPDC) are homologous enzymes that share the (beta/alpha)(8)-fold but catalyze mechanistically distinct reactions [Wise, E., Yew, W. S., Babbitt, P. C., Gerlt, J. A., and Rayment, I. (2002) Biochemistry 41, 3861-3869]. KGPDC

A silent gene encoding a kinase that specifically phosphorylates L-xylulose was activated and rendered constitutive in mutant cells of Escherichia coli. L-Xylulose kinase was purified to homogeneity and found to be a dimer of two subunits of 55 kDa, highly
