Abstract
The regulation of nitrile-hydratase biosynthese was studied in Brevibacterium sp R 312. Enzyme biosynthesis was not influenced by any carbon and nitrogen source used in the growth medium. It was, however, repressed by amide and amide analogues. Acetamide repressed nitrile-hydratase biosynthesis and induced the wide-spectrum amidase. Therefore, it appeared reasonable to hypothesize a single repressor gene for the nitrile-hydratase/wide-spectrum amidase system.Entities:
