Mutations of the glucose-pts in sublancin-resistant B. subtilis 168 ΔSPΒ
… the deletion of and mutations in the glucose phosphotransferase system confer resistance to sublancin. In this work we add to this knowledge by generating new sublancin-resistant mutants in B. subtilis 168 ΔSPβ. The mutations found support previous findings but also demonstrate the need to …

Chemotactic Sensory Transduction in Bacillus Subtilis: A New Enzyme and a New Pathway
… substrates of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent-phosphotransferase system (PTS) in E. coli is accomplished using a chemoreceptor-independent signaling circuit in which phosphoryl flux through the PTS is monitored and used directly to modulate the activity of the chemotactic kinase. In contrast, …

Regulation of HPr phosphorylation in Mycoplasma pneumoniae
… (HPrK/P) aus dem Phosphoenolpyruvat:Zucker-Phosphotransferase-System. In dieser Arbeit wurde das in vivo Aktivitätsprofil der HPrK/P unter verschiedenen Wachstumsbedingungen mit nativen Western-Blots untersucht. Die HPrK/P ist nur in Gegenwart von Glycerol als C-Quelle aktiv und …

Biochemistry and regulation of CheA in Bacillus subtilis chemotaxis
… to date. Studies on the enteric chemotaxis system revealed that taxis toward certain sugars is mediated solely through a separate phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS), involved in sugar transport. In B. subtilis, we have determined that taxis toward PTS carbohydrates …

Microbial glucosinolate metabolism: Characterization of Enterococcus faecalis XL1 and functional analysis of a GH4 enzyme
… analyses identified multiple β-glucoside phosphotransferase system (PTS) transporters and glycoside hydrolases (GHs) responsive to sinigrin, with a GH4 enzyme Ef5510, showing the strongest induction. Functional studies revealed that Ef5510 is an NAD+/Mn2+-dependent hydrolase, and the …

The dynamics of genetic networks
… the response of a cell to external stimuli. The phosphotransferase system of Escherichia coli regulates the metabolism of several sugars. We used a biochemical model of the system to investigate the range of possible metabolic responses it could generate.

Structure and function of enzyme I of the PTS
The phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) is responsible for the uptake and concomitant phosphorylation of many sugars in several species of bacteria. The first step of the PTS involves the phosphorylation of histidine containing phosphocarrier protein (HPr) by enzyme I (E.C. …

Untersuchung der Spezifität von Antiterminationsproteinen in Bacillus subtilis
… und Saccharose werden durch das sogenannte Phosphotransferase-System aufgenommen. Die Expression der Permeasen wird durch Antitermination reguliert. Ein Antiterminationsprotein bindet hierbei an die sogenannte RAT-Struktur der mRNA der jeweiligen Permease und verhindert so die Termination …

Signal Processing in Bacterial Chemotaxis
… of convergence of the methylation-independent systems of chemotaxis with the methylation-dependent system. The site of ATP utilization was localized at the CheY protein/switch point. In an Eaeheriehia call strain (BT3077) containing the cheY, motor and switch genes, ATP depletion, accomplished …

Examination of Glucose Transport in Clostridium Beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and the Solvent Hyper-Producing Mutant BA101
… of a phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS) associated with cell-free extracts of C. beijerinckii BA101 by glucose phosphorylation by PEP. The PTS activity associated with C. beijerinckii BA101 was 50% of that observed for C. beijerinckii 8052. C. beijerinckii …

The Influence of The Pep-Pts and Other Metabolic Systems On The Master Virulence Regulator Atxa and to xin Gene Expression In Bacillus Anthracis
… to phosphorylation by the phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PEP-PTS), termed PTS Regulatory Domains (PRD), and for their impact on virulence gene expression. Generally, the phosphorylation of a PCVR regulates protein activity and multimerization. AtxA is phosphorylated at two …

Functional Characterization of Atxa, The Bacillus Anthracis Virulence Regulator
… associated with phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) regulation. These PTS-regulated domains, PRD1 and PRD2, are within the central amino acid sequence. Specific histidines in the PRDs serve as sites of phosphorylation (H199 and H379). Phosphorylation of H199 increases …

Control of glucose and xylose utilization by Clostridium thermohydrosulfuricum Rt8.B1
… a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent carbohydrate: phosphotransferase system. Glucose and xylose transport was not driven by a proton motive force (ΔμH⁺) nor coupled to sodium and potassium ion gradients. An involvement of ATP in the uptake process was indicated by the reduction of glucose and …
