## Abstract Different methylated glucose derivatives and cellobiose were examined as the carbon sources for growth and cellulose formation by __Acetobacter xylinum__. HPLC studies were carried out to gain information about the kinetics of the utilization of the C sources used. The type and yields o
Three cellulose-negative (Cel-) mutants of Acetobacter xylinum strain ATCC 23768 were complemented by a cloned 2.8 kb DNA fragment from the wild type. Biochemical analysis of the mutants showed that they were deficient in the enzyme uridine 5'-diphosphoglucose (UDPG) pyrophosphorylase. The analysis
