Gluconobacter oxydans converts glucose to gluconic acid and subsequently to 2-keto-D-gluconic acid (2-KGA) and 5-keto-D-gluconic acid (5-KGA) by membrane-bound periplasmic pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent and flavin-dependent dehydrogenases. The product pattern obtained with several strains differed significantly. To increase the production of 5-KGA

We isolated thermotolerant Gluconobacter strains that are able to produce 5-keto-d-gluconic acid (5KGA) at 37 degrees C, a temperature at which regular mesophilic 5KGA-producing strains showed much less growth and 5KGA production. The thermotolerant strains produced 2KGA as the major
