In vitro biosynthesis of acetan using electroporated Acetobacter xylinum cells as enzyme preparations

Acetobacter xylinum strain NRRL B42 and its derivative RCGr1 produce a complex exopolysaccharide, acetan, containing glucose, mannose, glucuronic acid and rhamnose in a 4:1:1:1 molar ratio. The in vitro synthesis of acetan, employing electroporated cells as the enzyme system and the respective 14C-l...
