Coenzyme B12-dependent diol dehydratase: regulation of apoenzyme synthesis in Klebsiella pneumoniae (Aerobacter aerogenes) ATCC 8724. 1978

T Toraya, and S Honda, and S Kuno, and S Fukui

Immunochemical studies demonstrated that Klebsiella pneumoniae (Aerobacter aerogenes) ATCC 8724 produces only a single diol dehydratase whether grown on glycerol or on 1,2-propanediol. The enzyme was subject to induction by 1,2-diols and to catabolite repression reversed by cyclic AMP.
