In order to assess the functional significance of the quinoprotein glucose dehydrogenase recently found to be present in K+-limited Klebsiella aerogenes, a broad study was made of the influence of specific environmental conditions on the cellular content of this enzyme. Whereas high activities were

By means of an allometric relation between the oxygen consumption rate and the body mass of an animal a metabolic coefficient is derived that can be used as a measure of standard metabolism in different animal species. This coefficient increased in the course of evolution corresponding to the time o
Glucose kinase in Streptomyces coelicolor has a molecular weight of about 110,000. In crude extracts, the enzyme exhibited apparent Km values of 0.20 mM for ATP, 0.27 mM for glucose, and 2.2 mM for the glucose analogue 2-deoxyglucose. Mutations (glk) to 2-deoxyglucose-resistance, which greatly reduc
