Conteúdo: | Stemphylium loti develops a tolerance for hydrogen cyanide when incubated in a medium containing cyanide. Tolerance apparently involves an ability of the fungus to alter cyanide. Tolerant fungal spores or enzyme preparations from these spores convert hydrogen cyanide to formamide. Formamide is the only product of the reaction. The enzyme has optimal activity at pH 7-9. This apparently is the first report to establish the occurrence of an enzyme catalyzing this reaction; consequently, the enzyme is named formamide hydro-lyase.
