| Popis: | Diauxic growth was observed upon incubation of Agrobacterium tumefaciens 15955 on a mixture of succinate and mannopine as the carbon source. Diauxic growth was also observed when either fumarate or L-malate was mixed with mannopine. No diauxie was detectable when A. tumefaciens 15955 was grown on a mixture of mannopine and glucose, fructose, sucrose, or L-arabinose. Preferential utilization of succinate was observed in the initial growth phase of diauxie, whereas the final growth phase occurred at the expense of mannopine. Cells harvested during the initial growth phase exhibited a capacity for uptake of [14C]succinate but not of [14C] mannopine. A capacity for [14C]mannopine uptake was expressed during the final growth phase. Extracts from cells grown on a mixture of succinate and mannopine exhibited a low level of mannopine cyclase activity in the initial phase of diauxie. This activity increased substantially in the final phase of growth. Added succinate had no effect on the rate of [14C]mannopine uptake or mannopine cyclase activities of cells previously grown on mannopine. Diauxie was also observed during growth of strain 15955 on a mixture of succinate and octopine. |
