Pseudomonadal itaconate degradation gene cluster encodes enzymes for methylsuccinate utilization
Abstract Branched-chain C5-dicarboxylic acids (e.g., citramalate, mesaconate or methylsuccinate) and their CoA-esters are important intermediates in bacterial metabolism, while itaconate is an antimicrobial agent, a potent immunomodulator and a growth substrate for many bacteria. The itaconate degra...
