Abstract

Raps, Shirley (University of Illinois, Urbana) and R. D. DeMoss. Glycolytic enzymes in Zymomonas mobilis. J. Bacteriol. 84:115–118. 1962—An enzyme extract of Zymomonas mobilis (Pseudomonas lindneri) was capable of fermenting glucose-6-phosphate to CO2 and ethanol. The extract was found to contain phosphohexoisomerase, aldolase, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, but no demonstrable phosphohexokinase. The lack of isotope-mixing found in earlier studies is, thus, explained on an enzymatic basis.
