Abstract
Citrate stimulated growth, totally induced citrate lyase, partly induced acetolactate synthase activity and partly repressed both diacetyl and acetoin reductases in Leuconostoc lactis NCW1. Similar results were obtained with 2 other leuconostocs and a heterofermentative lactobacillus. In 2 of the 3 leuconostocs tested, diacetyl reductase and acetoin reductase were NADPH specific, while in the 2 heterofermentative lactobacilli, they were NADH specific.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
