General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction the glpD mutant strain GPM52 (glpD gene disrupted between nucleotides 555 and 556, resulting in a truncated protein of 185 amino acids) does not grow at all in glycerol-containing medium Mycoplasma pneumoniae
metabolism glycerol is one of the few carbon sources that can be utilized by Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Glycerol metabolism involves uptake by facilitated diffusion, phosphorylation, and the oxidation of glycerol 3-phosphate to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, a glycolytic intermediate. Glycerol metabolism is important for cytotoxicity of Mycoplasma pneumoniae with the enzyme being important but not essential, overview Mycoplasma pneumoniae
physiological function the formation of hydrogen peroxide by GlpD is crucial for cytotoxic effects of Mycoplasma pneumoniae. The glycerol 3-phosphate oxidase encoded by glpD is essential for glycerol utilization Mycoplasma pneumoniae
