✦ Synopsis
L-Arabinose has been described as a gratuitous inducer of the yeast c~-galactosidase. This has been found to be an artefact resulting from galactose contamination of commercial samples of >-arabinose. The inactivation produced on UDP-glucose 4-epimerase by the pentose does not amplify the inducer activity of contaminating D-galactose.
