Intracellular and extracellular cyclic adenosine 3′,5′‐monophosphate (cAMP) levels were determined during the growth of Streptomyces granaticolor . The intracellular level of cAMP represents not more than 10% of the total amount. cAMP synthesis varies in cultures growing on different carbon sources. The activity of adenylate cyclase in intact cells is strictly dependent on the presence of a metabolizable carbon source.
