Whole cells of Desulfobulbus propionicus fermented [1-13C]ethano 1 to [2-13C] and [3-13C]propionate and [1-13C]acetate, which indicates the involvement of a randomizing pathway in the formation of propionate. Cell-free extracts prepared from cells grown on lactate (without sulfate) contained high ac
