Distribution of Neuraminidase and N-Acetylneuraminate Lyase Activities Among Corynebacteria, Mycobacteria, and Nocardias

In Corynebacterium diphtheriae and closely related neuraminidase-producing corynebacteria, we have found an N-acetylneuraminate (NAN) lyase activity which cleaves NAN into N-acetyl-d-mannosamine and, presumably, pyruvate. In vitro, these lyases can be shown to synthesize NAN. A survey of representat...
