a

Phenylethylamine- and 3-nitrotyramine-dependent O2 uptake in extracts of cells grown on phenylethylamine or glycerol (as the carbon source) or on 3-nitrotyramine (as the nitrogen source). Cultures were grown at 30°C in defined medium containing 5 mM phenylethylamine or 40 mM glycerol as the carbon source or containing 11.1 mM glucose as the carbon source with 2.56 mM nitrotyramine as the nitrogen source.
