Dataset describing the amino acid catabolism of Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus.

ABSTRACT: The dataset depicts the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids by Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus in the presence of thiosulfate under different culture conditions. The results reveal that the strain can degrade all three branched-chain amino acids resulting in the production of their corresponding branched-chain fatty acids and branched-chain alcohols with the fatty acids always being the dominant product. The highest amounts of 2-methyl-1-butanol from isoleucine were at pH 6.5, liquid-gas ratio of 0.98, and at 20 mM thiosulfate concentration. A kinetic experiment of the branched-chain amino acids was done in the presence of thiosulfate as are data on selected enzyme activities related to alcohols and aldehydes. Finally, an NMR study using ¹³C1 methyl-1-butyrate du
