Widespread bacterial lysine degradation proceeding via glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate

Lysine degradation has remained elusive in many organisms including Escherichia coli. Here we report catabolism of lysine to succinate in E. coli involving glutarate and L-2-hydroxyglutarate as intermediates. We show that CsiD acts as an α-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase catalysing hydroxylation...
