Studies on the Metabolism of Lactose, Melibiose, Sucrose and Raffinose by Erwin/a Chrysanthemi
(University of Fort Hare, 1995) Mabinya, Leonard Vuyani
One of the challenging problems for a bacterial cell is to detect chemical changes that constantly occur in its environment, and to regulate and integrate its metabolism in response to such changes. The primary function of many cellular activities in these organisms is directed towards this task. These activities may include transport processes‚ cellular locomotion and chemotaxis, and the secretion of digestive enzymes (Saier, 1977; Dills et al.‚ 1980; Postma and Lengeler, 1985; Mitchell, 1985).
