Cell-free extracts of Rhizopus arrhizus contain exclusively cytosolic pyruvate carboxylase and NAD-glutamate dehydrogenase, a single mitochondrial isoenzyme of NADP-isocitrate dehydrogenase, and both mitochondrial and cytosolic isoenzymes of NADP-malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating). Other enzymes examined have sub-cellular localisations similar to those characteristic

The LYS12 gene from Candida albicans, coding for homoisocitrate dehydrogenase was cloned and expressed as a His-tagged protein in Escherichia coli. The purified gene product catalyzes the Mg(2+)- and K(+)-dependent oxidative decarboxylation of homoisocitrate to α-ketoadipate. The recombinant enzyme demonstrates
