Tanifuji R, Kimura Y
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2024 Jul; 371. PMID: 39038987
Thioredoxin (Trx) is a disulfide-containing redox protein that functions as a disulfide oxidoreductase. Myxococcus xanthus contains five Trxs (Trx1-Trx5) and one Trx reductase (TrxR). Trxs typically have a CGPC active-site...

Curr Microbiol . 2024 Jul; 81(8):248. PMID: 38951187
Myxococcus xanthus synthesizes polyphosphates (polyPs) with polyphosphate kinase 1 (Ppk1) and degrades short- and long-chain polyPs with the exopolyphosphatases, Ppx1 and Ppx2, respectively. M. xanthus polyP:AMP phosphotransferase (Pap) generates ADP...

Harita D, Nishida K, Kimura Y
FEMS Microbiol Lett . 2023 Feb; 370. PMID: 36731866
Polyphosphate kinase 1 (Ppk1) generates polyphosphates (polyPs) by catalyzing phosphate transfer from ATP. In the presence of ATP, Myxococcus xanthus Ppk1 showed the highest activity with polyP60-70 but also showed...

Proteins . 2022 Mar; 90(8):1547-1560. PMID: 35277888
Glutathione (GSH) is synthesized in two ATP-dependent reactions by glutamate-cysteine ligase (Gcl) and glutathione synthetase (Gs). Myxococcus xanthus, a gram-negative bacterium belonging to δ-proteobacteria, possesses mxGcl and mxGs, which have...

Harita D, Kanie K, Kimura Y
Biochim Biophys Acta Proteins Proteom . 2021 Apr; 1869(8):140660. PMID: 33857634
Myxococcus xanthus possesses two exopolyphosphatases, mxPpx1 and mxPpx2, which belong to the family of Ppx/GppA phosphatases; however, their catalytic properties have not been described. mxPpx1 and mxPpx2 contain 311 and...

Kimura Y, Kamatani S
J Biosci Bioeng . 2020 Nov; 131(2):147-152. PMID: 33132038
Myxococcus xanthus generates polyphosphates (polyPs) during starvation and forms fruiting bodies through the activity of polyphosphate kinase (Ppk). M. xanthus polyP:AMP phosphotransferase (Pap), a class II Ppk2, catalyzes the transfer...

Kimura Y, Kamimoto T, Tanaka N
Curr Microbiol . 2019 Nov; 77(2):173-178. PMID: 31741028
NAD kinase is a crucial enzyme for production of NADP. Myxococcus xanthus is a gram-negative soil bacterium that forms fruiting bodies and spores under starvation, and it accumulates polyphosphate (poly(P))...

Kimura Y, Kajimoto S, Yamamoto Y, Tanaka N
J Gen Appl Microbiol . 2019 Jul; 66(1):46-50. PMID: 31292314
Myxococcus xanthus Nudix hydrolase 2 (Nud2) hydrolyzed oxidized deoxynucleotides, such as 8-oxo-dGTP, 8-oxo-dGDP, 8-OH-dTP, and 2-OH-dATP, and showed the highest specific activity toward 8-oxo-dGTP. Mn was the most effective co-factor...
