A 3, 5-Diaminohexanoate-Decomposing Brevibacterium

Department of Biochemistry, University of California, Berkeley, California 94720

ABSTRACT

An obligately aerobic bacterium that grows on DL-erythro-3, 5-diaminohexanoate as a sole carbon, nitrogen, and energy source was isolated by the enrichment culture method. The organism utilizes only the L isomer by means of an inducible enzyme system. The organism has been tentatively identified as a member of the genus Brevibacterium.
