Abstract
An enzyme which catalyzes the cleavage of l-rhamnulose i-phosphate has been purified about 15-fold from extracts of l-rhamnose-grown Escherichia coli. The products of the reaction were characterized as dihydroxyacetone phosphate and l-lactaldehyde. The enzyme has been named l-rhanulose-phosphate aldolase. It is distinct from muscle hexose-diphosphate aldolase.
