Abstract
The enzyme system that decomposes ethanolamine into ammonia and acetaldehyde was found in Proteus morganii and it was named ethanolamine dehydrase. The acetaldehyde formed during the course of this decomposition was also found to undergo concurrent dismutation to be changed into ethanol and acetic acid.Keywords
