Anaerobic regulation of Bacillus subtilis Krebs cycle genes.
Krebs cycle enzyme activity in Bacillus subtilis was examined under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. Citrate synthase and aconitase activities in cells grown anaerobically in the presence of nitrate were reduced by as much as 10- and 30-fold, respectively, from levels observed under aerobic culture conditions. The maximum level of isocitrate dehydrogenase activity during anaerobic growth was o...
متن کاملEssential Bacillus subtilis genes.
To estimate the minimal gene set required to sustain bacterial life in nutritious conditions, we carried out a systematic inactivation of Bacillus subtilis genes. Among approximately 4,100 genes of the organism, only 192 were shown to be indispensable by this or previous work. Another 79 genes were predicted to be essential. The vast majority of essential genes were categorized in relatively fe...
متن کاملRegulators of aerobic and anaerobic respiration in Bacillus subtilis.
Two Bacillus subtilis genes, designated resD and resE, encode proteins that are similar to those of two-component signal transduction systems and play a regulatory role in respiration. The overlapping resD-resE genes are transcribed during vegetative growth from a very weak promoter directly upstream of resD. They are also part of a larger operon that includes three upstream genes, resABC (form...
متن کاملRegulation of glutamate dehydrogenase in Bacillus subtilis.
The activity of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase in Bacillus subtilis was influenced by the carbon source, but not the nitrogen source, in the growth medium. The highest specific activity for this enzyme was found when B. subtilis was grown in a minimal or rich medium that contained glutamate as the carbon source. It is proposed that glutamate dehydrogenas...
متن کاملRegulation of xylanolytic enzymes in Bacillus subtilis.
The synthesis of the xylanolytic enzymes beta-xylanase and beta-xylosidase of Bacillus subtilis was studied. In contrast to many catabolic extracellular enzymes, beta-xylanase was synthesized constitutively during exponential growth and was not repressed by glucose. beta-Xylosidase synthesis was induced 100-fold by xylose and repressed 100-fold by glucose. Carbon catabolite repression was aboli...
