title: Glutathione-independent maleylacetoacetate isomerase in gram-positive bacteria.
abstract: Nocardia globerula CL1 produced a glutathione-independent maleylacetoacetate isomerase after growth on L-tyrosine. Partial purification of this isomerase demonstrated its independence of low-molecular-weight cofactors such as glutathione. Similar glutathione-independent maleylacetoacetate isomerases were present in three other gram-positive bacteria grown on tyrosine.
