Notes:
Catabolic pathways of long-chain n-alkanes in the range of C8 to C18 are demonstrated and results of investigation about the regulation of monoterminal oxidation are given: - Enzymes of monoterminal alkane oxidation usually are inducible- Several intermediates of alkane oxidation can inhibit the primary oxidation of concerned alkane-Substances, e.g. glucose and glycerol, which ordinary don't be developed in catabolic alkane reactions, in many cases have an inhibitory effect on alkane oxidationThe regulation of catabolic pathways has a great influence on the formation of specific products This influence is demonstrated examplarily at the production of biotin, fatty acids and citric acid.
