Table 1. List of reactions for rhamnolipids biosynthesis added to the P. putida model.
| Code | Reaction formula | Reversibility |
|---|---|---|
| RHLA | (3R)-3-Hydroxydecanoyl-acyl-carrier protein + Coenzyme A ⇒ (S)-3-Hydroxydecanoyl-CoA + acyl carrier protein | Irreversible |
| RHLB | 3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoate + dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-L-mannose + H+ ⇒ dTDP + L-rhamnosyl-3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoate | Irreversible |
| RHLC | dTDP-4-dehydro-6-deoxy-L-mannose + H+ + L-rhamnosyl-3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoate ⇒ dTDP + L-rhamnosyl-Lrhamnosyl-3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoate | Irreversible |
| 3H3H | 2 beta-hydroxydecanoyl-beta-hydroxydecanoyl-S-CoA + H2O ⇒ 3-hydroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoate + Coenzyme A | Irreversible |
| PHAC | (S)-3-Hydroxydecanoyl-CoA ⇒ 2 beta-hydroxydecanoyl-beta-hydroxydecanoyl-S-CoA + Coenzyme A | Irreversible |
Note:
Reactions RHLA, RHLB and RHLC represent the rhamnosyltransferase chain A, rhamnosyltransferase chain B and rhamnosyltransferase 2 respectively. Reactions 3H3H and PHAC are involved in the poly(3-hydroxyalkanoic acid) synthase.
