Induction studies on pyrimidine metabolizing enzymes in E. coli B have shown that the enzymes fall into three distinct groups according to their induction pattern. a) Cytidine deaminase and uridine phosphorylase, are induced by cytidine, CMP and adenosine; no induction was observed with uridine and AMP; b) thymidine phosphorylase is induced by cytidine, adenosine, all deoxyribonucleosides, CMP, deoxyribonucleotides, deoxyribose and deoxyribose-1-phosphate; c) uridine-cytidine kinase, uracil phosphoribosyltransferase, 5'-nucleotidase, thymidine kinase, are uninducible enzymes. Simultaneous addition of cytidine and glucose partially overcomes the cytidine deaminase and uridine phosphorylase induction. Cytidine deaminase reaches its maximum activity levels, in E. coli growing cells in presence of cytidine, two hours before the uridine phosphorylase activity. Maximum glucose repression of cytidine deaminase and uridine phosphorylase was obtained in correspondence of maximum cytidine induction.
