The adenine nucleotide levels and derived energy charge value of a tyrothricin-producing strain of Bacillus brevis under aerobic conditions were in good agreement with published values for other bacteria. When growing cultures of B. brevis underwent a transition from aerobic to anaerobic conditions, cyclic variations in the level of adenine nucleotides were observed and the energy charge value oxcillated between 0.87 and 0.70. The significance of these changes is considered in relation to antibiotic production as a possible regulatory mechanism in energy metabolism. It is concluded that tyrothricin is not directly involved in the observed changes in energy charge value.
在需氧条件下，一株产短杆菌肽的短芽孢杆菌的腺嘌呤核苷酸水平及衍生的能荷值与已发表的其他细菌的值高度一致。当短芽孢杆菌培养物从需氧条件转变为厌氧条件时，观察到腺嘌呤核苷酸水平呈周期性变化，且能荷值在0.87至0.70之间振荡。这些变化的意义与抗生素生产相关，被认为是能量代谢中一种可能的调节机制。得出的结论是，短杆菌肽并未直接参与观察到的能荷值变化。
