The vitamin requirements for glycerol oxidation by Streptococcus faecalis.
Gunsalus and Sherman (1943) have shown that oxygen is necessary for glycerol fermentation for the majority of the lactic acid bacteria. These organisms, though considered devoid of those iron enzymes usually necessary when oxygen is involved as a hydrogen acceptor, could aerobically utilize glycerol. Because of the anomaly of these observations Gunsalus and Umbreit (1945) studied the mechanism ...
متن کاملDiacetyl oxidation by Streptococcus faecalis, a lipoic acid dependent reaction.
In the over-all reaction, one molecule of diacetyl is oxidized to two molecules of acetate, and another molecule of diacetyl is reduced to acetoin. The reaction was shown to require cocarboxylase (DPT).2 Subsequently, Schweet et al. (1951) expanded this finding and pointed out the similarity between the diacetyl reaction and pyruvic acid oxidation, with respect to the metabolism of the "active ...
متن کاملaureus, and Streptococcus faecalis
SYNOPSIS The incidence of trimethoprim resistance in coliforms and multiresistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated in Bristol from 1970 to 1972 is low-2-3 and 1 0% respectively. The resistance is probably intrinsic; there is no evidence that it is R-factor or plasmid mediated. A single mechanism that confers resistance to both trimethoprim and sulphamethoxazole has not been detected. N...
متن کاملStreptococcus suis, Streptococcus mitis, what is the problem?
In recent months Hong Kong citizens have learned much about a lethal bacterium— Streptococcus suis— which has caused at least 38 deaths among 204 people infected in Sichuan province alone. They were told that this bacterium is widely spread among pigs; many carry it without developing any illness. Environmental factors such as high temperature or humidity might trigger off a clinical infection ...
متن کاملPhospholipids of Streptococcus faecalis.
Autoradiograms of total lipid extracts from Streptococcus faecalis ATCC 9790, harvested in the stationary phase from a medium containing (32)P-orthophosphate, showed six major spots. The corresponding compounds were identified as diphosphatidylglycerol (possibly with a penta acyl structure); phosphatidylglycerol; a provisionally identified mixture of alanylphosphatidylglycerol and of the 2'-lys...
