The HPr protein of the phosphotransferase system links induction and catabolite repression of the Bacillus subtilis levanase operon.
The LevR protein is the activator of expression of the levanase operon of Bacillus subtilis. The promoter of this operon is recognized by RNA polymerase containing the sigma 54-like factor sigma L. One domain of the LevR protein is homologous to activators of the NtrC family, and another resembles antiterminator proteins of the BglG family. It has been proposed that the domain which is similar ...
متن کاملCcpA-independent carbon catabolite repression in Bacillus subtilis.
The past decade has witnessed an exiting unveiling of numerous molecular mechanisms that characterize signal transduction by protein-protein interaction. The recent findings encouraged an increasing effort to understand the sequential metabolism of different sugars available as energy sources at the same time. It seems probable that at least three principle mechanisms which act together or sepa...
متن کاملEvidence for a dimerisation state of the Bacillus subtilis catabolite repression HPr-like protein, Crh.
The Bacillus subtilis catabolite repression HPr (Crh) exhibits 45% sequence identity when compared to histidine-containing protein (HPr), a phosphocarrier protein of the phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase system. We report here that Crh preparations contain a mixture of monomers and homodimers, whereas HPr is known to be monomeric in solution. The dissociation rate of dimers is...
متن کاملCatabolite repression and activation in Bacillus subtilis: dependency on CcpA, HPr, and HprK.
Previous studies have suggested that the transcription factor CcpA, as well as the coeffectors HPr and Crh, both phosphorylated by the HprK kinase/phosphorylase, are primary mediators of catabolite repression and catabolite activation in Bacillus subtilis. We here report whole transcriptome analyses that characterize glucose-dependent gene expression in wild-type cells and in isogenic mutants l...
متن کاملThe Bacillus subtilis crh gene encodes a HPr-like protein involved in carbon catabolite repression.
Carbon catabolite repression (CCR) of several Bacillus subtilis catabolic genes is mediated by ATP-dependent phosphorylation of histidine-containing protein (HPr), a phosphocarrier protein of the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP): sugar phosphotransferase system. In this study, we report the discovery of a new B. subtilis gene encoding a HPr-like protein, Crh (for catabolite repression HPr), composed o...
