Enzymatic evidence supports that succinate mediates repression of hexose-catabolising enzymes in fast-growing Rhizobium sp. (Cicer arietinum). Enzymes of the Embden-Myerhof-Parnas, Entner-Doudoroff and pentose phosphate pathways were found present in hexose-grown cells but not in succinate-grown cells. These however could be induced by the presence of hexoses.
