Propionate oxidation in Escherichia coli: evidence for operation of a methylcitrate cycle in bacteria

Escherichia coli grew in a minimal medium on propionate as the sole carbon and energy source. Initially a lag phase of 4-7 days was observed. Cells adapted to propionate still required 1-2 days before growth commenced. Incorporation of (2-13C), (3-13C) or (2H3)propionate into alanine revealed by NMR...
