a reliable, enzyme-coupled assay for measuring glycerol dehydratase activity in crude-cell extract is developed using 1,2-propanediol as the substrate. In the assay, 1,2-propanediol is converted to propionaldehyde, which is quickly converted to 1-propionic acid by aldehyde dehydrogenase (with the production of NADH) or to 1-propanol by yeast alcohol dehydrogenase (with the consumption of NADH). The change in NADH concentration, as monitored at 340 nm spectrophotometrically, manifested as a straight line for 3 min, from which the glycerol dehydratase activity can be determined. The assay method should prove to be applicable to recombinant strains developed for the production of 3-hydroxypropionic acid and/or 1,3-propanediol from glycerol | Klebsiella pneumoniae |
