suspensions of Mycobacterium 8megmati8 and Mycobacterium butyricum. 2. The oxidation is completely inhibited by cyanide and partially inhibited by selective agents such as arsenite, iodoacetate and fluoride. Pyruvate accumulates extracellularly in the presence of arsenite only. 3. Study of dialysed extracts has shown that the primary step in the degradation of glycerol is phosphorylation with adenosine triphosphate. Glycerophosphate is subsequently oxidized to triose phosphate and broken down to pyruvate by reactions of the Embden-Meyerhof scheme.
