Abstract

The uptake of d-glucose by glucose-adapted cells of C. thermocellum ATCC-27405 seems to be mediated by an ATP-dependent permease transport system. The existence of this transport system can hypo-thetically explain the observation that d-glucose is energetically less favorable than cellobiose in sustaining the growth of this microorganism. © 1982, Applied Microbiology, Molecular and Cellular Biosciences Research Foundation.
