The relation between Kac-Moody groups and algebras and the determinant line bundle of the massless Dirac operator in two dimensions is clarified. Analogous objects are studied in four space-time dimensions and a generalization of Witten's fermionization mechanism is presented in terms of the topology of the Dirac determinant bundle.
