Abstract
It is confirmed by a new method for the determination of D-glutamic acid, that Aerobacter strain A rapidly metabolizes D-glutamic acid, while it only shows feeble metabolic activity towards L-glutamic acid when it is grown on a DL-glutamate-K2HPO4 medium. A specific D-glutamic oxidase is demonstrated in the cell-free extracts of Aerobacter strain A. This enzyme seems to be different from D-glutamic-aspartic oxidase obtained from Aspergillus ustus by the authors, since the former has no activity towards D-aspartic acid.
