Abstract
Distribution of hydrolytic deamidation and simultaneous deamidation-hydroxamate formation activities was determined with 4 species. Mycobacterium smegmatis showed both activities towards nicotin-, benz- and acetamides; M. avium had both towards nicotin- and benzamides; M. phlei possessed amidase for nicotinamide and transferase for L-glutamine. L-Asparagine amidase was distributed in the above 3 species and M. tuberculosis var. bovis.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
