Abstract

The inducing potential of formaldehyde on the synthesis of hexulose phosphate synthase, a key enzyme of the RuMP cycle in Arthrobacter P1, was investigated in resting cell suspensions. Induction of this enzyme only occurred at formaldehyde concentrations of 0.5 mM and below. No evidence was obtained for the involvement of an inactivation-activation mechanisms that controlled the activity of existing hexulose phosphate synthase molecules.
