Isolation and characterization of the (NAD(P)-independent)polyol dehydrogenase from the plasma-membranes of gluconobacter oxydans ATCC strain 621

Gluconobacter species rapidly perform limited oxidations of a large number of different polyhydroxy alcohols (polyols). These oxidations are catalyzed by constituitively synthesized plasma-membrane bound dehydrogenases. These bacteria would have to expend much energy to constituitively synthesize a...
