Oxidations by Acetobacter Suboxydans
Acetobacter suboxydans is known to bring about oxidation of polyhydroxy compounds. The action of the bacterial enzyme is limited, however, to substances with specific configurations. According to the generalization of Bertrand,’ only those hydroxyl groups are oxidized which are situated between a primary hydroxyl group and a secondary one in a cis position. Hann, Tilden, and Hudson,2 in a compa...
متن کاملOxidations in Acetobacter suboxydans.
It has been shown that glycerol can be oxidized beyond the dihydroxyacetone (DHA) stage by resting Acetobacter suboxydans cells (1). Through washing and centrifuging of the cells at room temperature, most of the oxidative activity was destroyed, which, however, could be restored by the addition of inorganic phosphate and diphosphopyridine nucleotide (DPN). 2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP), a phosphate “...

متن کاملOxidation of acetaldehyde by Acetobacter suboxydans.
Acetobacter suboxydans has a powerful system for the oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid, as might be expected from the fact that the acetic acid bacteria have long been used for the commercial production of vinegar. Alcohol dehydrogenase in soluble extracts has been found to be DPlSspecific1 (1). It has now been observed that either TPN or DPN can be used as coenzyme for the oxidation of aceta...
متن کاملOxidative dissimilation in Acetobacter suboxydans.
Interest in this laboratory has focused upon the metabolism of the acetic acid bacteria since the superior activity of bound forms of pantothenic acid (PAC) ((1, 2); coenzyme A (3, 4)) over the free vitamin was discovered. The disclosure that pantetheine (Lactobadus bulgaricus factor) is a mercaptan capable of coexisting with an oxidized disulfide form (5) has led to speculation as to whether c...
