Control of Fatty Acid Metabolism I. Induction of the Enzymes of Fatty Acid Oxidation in Escherichia coli

Escherichia coli grows on long-chain fatty acids after a distinct lag phase. Cells, preadapted to palmitate, grow immediately on fatty acids, indicating that fatty acid oxidation in this bacterium is an inducible system. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that cells grown on palmitate oxidize...
