【 摘 要 】

Uric acid enters Bacillus fasitidiosus spores by a constitutive carrier-mediated mechanism. The extent of uptake was proportional to the external uric acid concentration up to the limit of solubility. Most of the uric acid taken up after 2 min of incubation was not exchangeable with cold uric acid, suggesting that the uric acid was being quickly metabolized. Allantoin (an uric acid degradation product) was not incorporated by spores unles they were triggered to germinate with uric acid and the induced by allantoin. The induction of this uptake system was inhibited by chloramphenicol. The inability of spores to germinate in the sporulation medium was found to be due to the high pH of the sporulation medium after growth and sporulation.
