    Transport of 2-deoxyglucose or glucose in Streptococcus agalactiae was strongly inhibited if the cells were first exposed to a combination of lactoperoxidase-thiocyanate-hydrogen peroxide (LP-complex). The inhibition was completely reversible with dithiothreitol. N-ethylmaleimide and p-chloromercuribenzoate inhibited sugar transport, and the inhibition was also reversible with dithiothreitol. Sodium fluoride also inhibited sugar transport. Glucolysis was completely inhibited, and dithiothreitol completely reversed the inhibition. Phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase activity in S. agalactiae was not strongly inhibited by the LP-complex. Interference of the entry of glucose into cells of S. agalactiae by the LP-complex could well account for its growth inhibitory properties with this organism. The inhibition of glucose transport by the LP-complex and its reversibility with dithiothreitol suggest the modification of functional sulfhydryl groups in the cell membrane as a cause of transport inhibition.
