Enzymes of D-fructose catabolism in species of Beneckea and Photobacterium.
Cell-free extracts of strains representative of the genera Beneckea and Photobacterium catalyzed a P-enolpyruvate dependent phosphorylation of D-fructose. The resulting product, fructose-1-P, was converted to fructose-1,6-P2 by 1-P-fructokinase. Both activities were inducible, being present in D-fructose-grown cells and reduced or absent in D-gluconate-(or succinate-) grown cells.
