Abstract:
:Goldman, Manuel (The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor), and Harold J. Blumenthal. Pathways of glucose catabolism in Bacillus cereus. J. Bacteriol. 87:377-386. 1964.-Estimates by a radiorespirometric method of the pathways of glucose catabolism of resting-cell suspensions of Bacillus cereus strain terminalis indicate that the Embden-Meyerhof pathway predominates at every stage of development, including the sporogenic and germinative phases. At the filamentous, granular, forespore, and transitional stages, 98% of the glucose was catabolized by the Embden-Meyerhof pathway, and the remainder by the hexose monophosphate oxidative pathway. Estimates of the pathways in resting spore-suspensions arrested at defined stages of development indicate that 20% of the glucose was catabolized through the hexose monophosphate pathway in germinated spores, and 10% in the swollen and elongated stages of postgermination. In cells which had completed the first cell division, the figure fell to about 2%, a level similar to that found for vegetative cells at later stages of development. The key Embden-Meyerhof enzymes, hexokinase, phosphohexoisomerase, phosphofructokinase, and aldolase, as well as several other enzymes, were present at all stages of germination and postgerminative development, supporting the radioisotopic data obtained with whole cells. As indicated by the release of C(14)O(2) from glucose-6-C(14), terminal respiration of resting-cell suspensions operates maximally in vegetative cells at the granular, fore-spore, and transitional stages. There was marked inhibition of terminal respiration during the development of spores into vegetative cells. Only slight activity occurred in the earliest vegetative stages, and maximal operation developed after about ten cell divisions. Fumarase was absent in spores until sometime late in the elongation stage. At this point, a weak but definite activity appeared which increased during later stages of development so that, by the end of about the sixth cell division, fumarase had a specific activity about 80 times that observed at elongation.
