Two enzymes are responsible for the oxalate that is produced in the Burkholderia species. The first enzyme, ObcA, catalyzes the formation of a tetrahedral C6-CoA adduct from the substrates acetyl-COA and oxaloacetate. The second enzyme, ObcB, produces three products from the C6-CoA adduct. These products are oxalate, acetoacetate and CoA. The oxalate produced from the ''Burkholderia species'', is necessary for bacterial growth and maintaining environmental pH.<scene name='79/799595/Cartoon_view/1'> Here is the rotating image of the ''Burkhloderia species'' as a cartoon. </scene>

Species of Burkholderia can be involved in plant or human pathogenesis. Several diseases, such as ''B. Glumae'' which causes bacterial panicle blight in rice, or'' B. cepacia,'' which is an opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised individuals, like those with cystic fibrosis or chronic granulomatous disease. It can also be involved with ''B. pseudomallei'' which can cause meliondosis, a lethal infection that leads to the formation of abscesses in internal organs.

This Sandbox is Reserved from October 22, 2018 through April 30, 2019 for use in the course Biochemistry taught by Bonnie Hall at the Grand View University, Des Moines, IA USA. This reservation includes Sandbox Reserved 1456 through Sandbox Reserved 1470.
To get started:
  • Click the edit this page tab at the top. Save the page after each step, then edit it again.
  • Click the 3D button (when editing, above the wikitext box) to insert Jmol.
  • show the Scene authoring tools, create a molecular scene, and save it. Copy the green link into the page.
  • Add a description of your scene. Use the buttons above the wikitext box for bold, italics, links, headlines, etc.
