Characterization of phosphate transport in Streptomyces granaticolor.

Transport of inorganic phosphate in Streptomyces granaticolor was characterized in two growth stages; kinetic parameters were determined and two transport systems were found in both stages, with the following values: KT1 = 0.06 mM, Jlim1 = 0.95 nmol min-1 (mg DS)-1, and KT2 = 1.
