Critic acid metabolism of Aerobacter aerogenes.
Aerobacter aerogenes is able to utilize citric acid as sole source of carbon for growth in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. From an analysis of fermentation liquors Deffner and Franke (1939) and Brewer and Werkman (1939) concluded that citric acid is decomposed anaerobically to oxalacetate and acetate as initial products. Manometric studies by the latter workers, using Aerobacter indologe...
متن کاملAcetic acid oxidation by Escherichia coli and Aerobacter aerogenes.
Evidence against the occurrence of the Krebs oxidation cycle in bacterial respiration has been steadily accumulating. Escherichia coli and many other bacteria do not readily metabolize the three tricarboxylic acids. Aerobacter aerogenes will not readily attack citrate when measured manometrically unless the organism is grown in the presence of this acid as the sole source of carbon. Recently Le...

متن کاملBiosynthesis of ethylene. 4-methylmercapto-2-oxobutyric acid: an intermediate in the formation from methionine.
The enzyme responsible for the conversion of methionine into a precursor of ethylene in cauliflower florets is a transaminase. The formation of 4-methyl-mercapto-2-oxobutyric acid by this enzyme has been shown. The oxo acid stimulates the synthesis of ethylene when added to floret tissue, and tracer experiments have shown that (14)C is incorporated into ethylene from the labelled oxo acid. The ...
متن کاملBiosynthesis in Aerobacter aerogenes
Two pathways for methionine methyl formation, one cobalamindependent and one cobalamin-independent, corresponding to those observed in Escherichia coli PA 15 have been found in Aerobacter aerogenes. An initial difficulty in showing the cobalamin-dependent pathway in cellfree extracts proved to be due to the presence of enzymes which caused the removal of adenosylmethionine, a cofactor required ...
