Abstract

Glucose inhibits the inducible synthesis of β-D-glucosidase inStreptomyces granaticolor. Neither cAMP nor cGMP influence the inhibitory effect of glucose. Glucose also inhibits the inducible synthesis of the cellobiose uptake system but has no effect on its activity. This may be the mechanism underlying glucose inhibition of induction of β-D-glucosidase inS.granaticolor.
