  • Title: Some comparative observations on the relative contributions of alternate pathways in the metabolism of glucose by Candida utilis.
    Author: Dawson PS, Okada W, Steinhauer LP.
    Journal: Can J Microbiol; 1976 Jul; 22(7):996-1001. PubMed ID: 986868.
    Abstract:
    Candida utilis was grown in batch, chemostat, and continuously synchronised (phased) culture on a nitrogen-limited glucose mineral salts medium: phosphorus- and carbon-limited phased cultures were also used. The 14CO2 evolved from [G-1-14c]and [G-6-14c] was used, as a simple C1/C6 ratio, to observe the relative changes in EMP and HMP contributions during growth of the cultures. The ratio varied during the cell cycle, and changed with growth rate, and with nutrient limitation. The changes generally indicated that the HMP predominated, most notably in the early part of the batch-growth sequence and early in the cell cycle. The overall results reflected the relative merits of the different cultivation techniques for examining microbial metabolism: the advantage of a greater resolution by the synchronised method, based upon the unit performance rather than the randomised mean performance of the cell population...
