EPIMERIZATION OF THYMIDINE DIPHOSPHATE GLUCOSE IN BACTERIAL EXTRACTS.

Abstract	Tinelli, Regina (Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, Mo.), A. M. Michelson, and Jack L. Strominger. Epimerization of thymidine diphosphate glucose in bacterial extracts. J. Bacteriol. 86:246-251. 1963.-Extracts of Pasteurella pseudotuberculosis type IV and several other bacteria catalyzed the reversible interconversion of thymidine diphosphate (TDP)-d-glucose and TDP-d-galactose. Moreover, extracts of P. pseudotuberculosis catalyzed the synthesis of TDP-d-glucose from thymidine triphosphate and alpha-d-glucose-1-phosphate. The limitations of these observations and their possible significance are discussed.
