Application

Suitable for the determination of acetoacetate and D(-)-3-hydroxybutyrate by the method of Williamson, D. H., and Mellanby, J., Methods of Enzymatic Analysis, Bergmeyer, H., ed., 2nd edition, 4, 1836 (1974).

Biochem/physiol Actions

In mammalian systems, β-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase is localized on the inner mitochondrial membrane and requires phosphatidyl choline for activity. In contrast, the enzyme from Rhodopseudomonas is a soluble cytosolic enzyme that does not require a phospholipid allosteric activator. The enzyme is required for the utilization of ketone bodies as a source of metabolic energy. It catalyzes the oxidation of 3-hydroxybutyrate to acetoacetate, the first step in the conversion of ketone bodies to citric acid, which is then further metabolized via the tricarboxylic acid cycle (Krebs cycle).

Unit Definition

One unit will oxidize 1.0 μmole of D-β-hydroxybutyrate to acetoacetate per min at pH 7.8 at 37 °C.

Two autotrophic carbon fixation cycles have been identified in Crenarchaeota. The dicarboxylate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle functions in anaerobic or microaerobic autotrophic members of the Thermoproteales and Desulfurococcales. The 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutyrate cycle occurs in aerobic autotrophic Sulfolobales; a similar cycle may operate in autotrophic

In this study, a methylotrophic bacterium, Methylobacterium rhodesianum MB 126, was used for the production of the chiral compound (R)-3-hydroxybutyrate (R-3HB) from methanol. R-3HB is formed during intracellular degradation of the storage polymer (R)-3-polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB). Since the monomer R-3HB does
