Résumé

The halophilic archaeon Haloarcula hispanica utilizes the sugar alcohols mannitol and sorbitol as carbon and energy sources. Genes, enzymes, and transcriptional regulators involved in uptake and degradation of these sugar alcohols were identified by growth experiments with deletion mutants and enzyme characterization. It is shown that both mannitol and sorbitol are taken up via a single ABC transporter of the CUT1 transporter family. Then, mannitol and sorbitol are oxidized to fructose by two distinct dehydrogenases. Fructose is further phosphorylated to fructose-1-phosphate by a haloarchaeal ketohexokinase, providing the first evidence for a physiological function of ketohexokinase in prokaryotes. Finally, fructose-1-phosphate is phosphorylated via fructose-1-phosphate kinase to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, which is cleaved to triosephosphates by a Class I fructose-1,6-bisphosphate aldolase. Two distinct transcriptional regulators, acting as activators, have been identified: an IclR-like regulator involved in activating genes for sugar alcohol uptake and oxidation to fructose, and a GfcR-like regulator that likely activates genes involved in the degradation of fructose to pyruvate. This is the first comprehensive analysis of a sugar alcohol degradation pathway in Archaea.
