Abstract
Glutamate was converted to glutamine by Corynebacterium glutamicum permeabi lized by ethanol (10 %). ATP was supplied to the reaction by dried Saccharo myces cerevisiae or regenerated by acetyl kinase. High glutamine synthetase activity in C. glutamicum was induced by cultivation of the microorganism in media containing glutamate as the sole source of nitrogen.
