Notes:
Abstract Morganella morganii produced CO when cultured in a medium containing casamino acids or peptone as the sole carbon source. Although the production of CO was distinctly enhanced by the addition of hemin to the medium, the amounts of CO produced in the absence of hemin were nearly proportional to the amounts of peptone added to the culture media. Examination of 20 amino acids for their ability to produce CO by resting cells revealed that phenylalanine, tyrosine, histidine and tryptophan were the sources of CO. Oxygen and hemin were necessary for CO production from the amino acids except tryptophan which produced CO in the absence of hemin. When cells were incubated for 4 h at 30° C in the mixture containing 40 μmol tyrosine and 1 μmol hemin, about 15 μmol CO was produced; the activity of CO production was about 1.2 μmol CO/h · mg cell nitrogen. Phenylpyruvic acid, p-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid and imidazolepyruvic acid also produced CO in the presence of hemin, while indolepyruvic acid produced CO regardless of the presence or absence of hemin. The production of CO by the 2-oxo acids proceeded spontaneously and did not require the presence of M. morganii cells.
