energies of activation and uncoupled growth in streptococcus faecalis and zymomonas mobilis.	growing cultures of streptococcus faecalis at temperatures above 30 c have activation energies for both rates of growth and glycolysis of 10.3 kcal mole(-1), and a constant growth yield; when growth takes place below this temperature, the growth yield decreases and the activation energy for growth increases to 21.1 kcal mole(-1), but the activation energy for glycolysis is unchanged. the adenosine triphosphate pool in the organisms behaves differently above and below 30 c, suggesting that the en ...	1967	4964479
the route of ethanol formation in zymomonas mobilis.	1. enzymic evidence supporting the operation of the entner-doudoroff pathway in the anaerobic conversion of glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide by zymomonas mobilis is presented. 2. cell extracts catalysed the formation of equimolar amounts of pyruvate and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from 6-phosphogluconate. evidence that 3-deoxy-2-oxo-6-phosphogluconate is an intermediate in this conversion was obtained. 3. cell extracts of the organism contained the following enzymes: glucose 6-phosphate de ...	1966	4287842
sucrose utilization by zymomonas mobilis: formation of a levan.	1. molar growth-yield coefficients of zymomonas mobilis for glucose, fructose, glucose plus fructose, and sucrose are reported. yield coefficients for sucrose are appreciably lower than those for the equivalent concentrations of glucose plus fructose. 2. only 2.6% of [u-(14)c]glucose supplied in the growth medium is incorporated into cell substance by z. mobilis utilizing glucose as the energy source. 3. during growth on sucrose a levan is formed. it has been characterized and shown to resemble ...	1966	4287843
influence of aeration and of pantothenate on growth yields of zymomonas mobilis.	belaïch, jean-pierre (centre national de la recherche scientifique, marseille, france), and jacques c. senez. influence of aeration and of pantothenate on growth yields of zymomonas mobilis. j. bacteriol. 89:1195-1200. 1965.-the growth yields and rates of zymomonas mobilis were measured in aerobic and anaerobic cultures on glucose medium containing yeast extract, amino acids, or ammonium chloride as the nitrogen source. in the absence of yeast extract, pantothenate was required. the growth yield ...	1965	14292985
glycolytic enzymes in zymomonas mobilis.	raps, shirley (university of illinois, urbana) and r. d. demoss. glycolytic enzymes in zymomonas mobilis. j. bacteriol. 84:115-118. 1962-an enzyme extract of zymomonas mobilis (pseudomonas lindneri) was capable of fermenting glucose-6-phosphate to co(2) and ethanol. the extract was found to contain phosphohexoisomerase, aldolase, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, but no demonstrable phosphohexokinase. the lack of isotope-mixing found in earlier studies is, thus, explained on an enzym ...	1962	14490400
