GLYCOLYTIC ENZYMES IN ZYMOMONAS MOBILIS

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 CO 2 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.
