摘要
It is shown by C-13 NMR spectroscopy that, in Escherichia coli mutant WG2, the C-2,-3 bond of [2,3-C-13(2)]-1- deoxy-D-xylulose 2 enters C-4,-5 of the thiazole unit of thiamin (B-1) 1 and C-2,-3 of pyridoxol (B-6) 3, providing the first direct evidence that the intact C-5 chain of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose is incorporated concurrently into each of the two B Vitamins.
