Abstract

Pseudomonas sp. strain A grew with 2-chloro-1,3,5-triazine-4,6-diamine as the sole and growth-limiting source of nitrogen. The substrate was utilized quantitatively and concomitantly with growth and with excretion of a product which was identified as 2-chloro-4-amino-1,3,5-triazine-6(5H)-one. The reaction yielded 1 mol of organic product and 1 mol of NH4+ per mol of substrate.
