“…In Arthrobacter P1 the levels of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase and other enzymes of the pentose phosphate pathway were enhanced in gluconate-grown cells as compared to glucose-grown cells, while no activity of the xylulose-5-phosphate cleavage enzyme phosphoketolase was found (Table2). This indicates that the metabolism of gluconate in Arthrobacter P1 is by way of the pentose phosphate pathway and, subsequently, the Embden-Meyerhof route, as reported for Arthrobacter globiformis and Arthrobacter ureafaciens [12]. It is therefore concluded that in Arthrobacter P1 cleavage of hexose phosphates into C 3 compounds only occurs via the Embden-Meyerhof route (Fig.…”

“…The tendency in the past few years has been to assign species to the genus Arthrobacter mainly on the basis of morphology, often despite distinct differences in nutritional requirements (Zagallo and Wang, 1962). This practice is understandable in view of the fact that all too often it is difficult to obtain significant physiological response from these organisms.…”

, AND JOHN G. HOLT. Numerical taxonomy of certain coryneform bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 20:921-927. 1965-An electronic computer was used to sort 32 strains of coryneforms into groups with the tree-sort program. The similarity values obtained in this procedure were then used to construct a dendrogram depicting the. phenetic resemblance among the taxa. The results indicated that all the phytopathogens studied were sufficiently distinct from the type species, Corynebacterium diphtheriae, to be excluded from the genus Corynebacterium. The grouping of some of the phytopathogens with Microbacterium lacticum is discussed. C. fascians appeared so distinct from the other strains studied that it should probably be excluded from the Corynebacteriaceae. The phenetic resemblance of Brevibacterium linens and Arthrobacter globiformis was emphasized, and the new combination, Arthrobacter linens, was proposed. In addition, because of distinct dissimilarity from the type species, it would seem desirable to exclude Arthrobacter tumescens from the genus Arthrobacter. The justification for classifying Kurthia zopfii in a family separate from the Corynebacteriaceae would appear to be open to serious question. It was concluded that the present taxonomic positions of Listeria monocytogenes, Cellulomonas biazotea, and Cellulomonas fimi are satisfactory.

“…Though the reasons for the temporary fall in metabolic activities during morphogenesis remain to be investigated, changes in glucose assimilation pathways (Zagallo and Wang 1962;Krulwich and Ensign 1969), variations in cell wall structure (Krulwich et al 1967a(Krulwich et al , 1967b, or a combination of these factors might be the major events involved in the phenomena observed. …”

Respiratory activity, molar growth yields, and ATP content in. an Arthrobacter sp. ammonium-limited chemostat culture. Can. J. Microbiol. 29: 11 36-1140.ArthrobacterfIuorescens was grown in chemostat culture under ammonium-limited conditions and respiratory activity; molar growth yields and ATP content were determined over a wide range of dilution rates. Within a range of dilution rates between 0.10 h-' and 0.20 h-', morphological transition occurred, the ratio of cocci to rods appearing inversely related to growth rate. Molar growth yields for both glucose and ammonium decreased with increasing dilution rates because of the higher intracellular polysaccharide content at the lower growth rates. Different metabolic activities were shown in cocci, in rods, and during morphogenesis. A sharp decrease in in situ and potential oxygen quotient (Q(02)) and in ATP content was observed in the range of dilution rates in which morphological changes occurred.CACCIARI, I., D. LIPPI, S.
