In another phase I trial, i.d. injections of LPS from Pantoea agglomerans were given to patients who suffered from disseminated cancer and received cyclophosphamide, and ibuprofen, to attenuate fever. Increases in the serum concentrations of TNF-a, IL-6 and G-CSF were observed, without tolerance [188],... 

A/ -alanyl, O-acyl and O-methylzeatin were discovered in Lupinus species [16-18], Fig. (1). Double glycosylated derivatives of cytokinins sucb as zeatin-9-(glucop3nianosyl riboside) were found to be most abundant components of cytokinin pool in mature pine buds [19]. Recently, a barley pathogen Pantoea agglomerans was found to excrete 2-methylthio-A/ -isopentenyladenine and its deoxyriboside, both having cytokinin activity, to the culture medium [20]. 

Spiroacetal-fused 26-membered ring maerolides, oligomycins, are generally produeed by actinomycetes (see Seetion II.F), but oligomycins SC-1 and 2 (81) are produced by a bacterium Pantoea agglomerans [102]. BE-56384, isolated from Streptomyces sp., has a strueture identical to that of 81 [103].

Precursor balancing and alteration of metabolic fluxes in the central pathways play major roles in the high-level production of metabolites. Redirection of carbon flux from pyruvate to G3P by overexpression of phosphoenolpyruvate synthase and inactivation of competing pathways resulted in improved lycopene production in E. coli [107]. In one study, P-carotene synthetic genes of Pantoea agglomerans were first integrated into the E. coli chromosome. P-Carotene synthetic pathway in recombinant E. coli was then divided into five modules P-carotene synthesis, MEP, and three central metabolic modules. Expression...

C A from pig intestine and Lipid A (LA) from Escherichia coli (L A-E) and Salmonella minnesota (LA-S) were obtained from Sigma Chemical Co. (St. Louis, MO). LPS (MW, 10,000 g mole ) was prepared from Pantoea agglomerans (ATCC 27996) as described earlier (De Lucca et al., 1992). All other chemicals were reagent grade. Water and laboratory-ware were pyrogen-free.
