Abstract
Several organisms, which are able to degrade abequose and 3-deoxy-galactose, were isolated from soil by enrichment culture on abequose (3,6-dideoxy-D-galactose). One of these strains was identified as Pseudomonas putida. 2-Oxo-3-deoxy-D-galactonic acid whose structure was proved by several reactions, was formed in large amounts when resting cells of this organism were shaken with deoxygalactose (0.5 percent). Crude extracts of P. putida contain no 3-deoxygalactose isomerase.
