Glucose metabolism in Pycnoporus cinnabarinus

Can J Microbiol. 1978 May;24(5):620-2. doi: 10.1139/m78-101.

Abstract

It was demonstrated by the measurement of enzyme activities and by radiorespirometric assays that the basidiomycete Pycnoporus cinnabarinus metabolizes glucose through the glycolytic pathway and the pentose phosphate cycle.
