Activity of Uridine Diphosphate N-Acetylglucosamine-4-Epimerase During Spherulation of Physarum polycephalum

¹ Department of Microbiology, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195

ABSTRACT

The specific activity of uridine diphosphate N-acetylglucosamine-4-epimerase increases during spherulation of Physarum polycephalum, a process that involves the synthesis of galactosamine walls. This increase is prevented by the addition of cycloheximide.
