Catabolite repression in Lactobacillus casei ATCC 393 is mediated by CcpA.
The chromosomal ccpA gene from Lactobacillus casei ATCC 393 has been cloned and sequenced. It encodes the CcpA protein, a central catabolite regulator belonging to the LacI-GalR family of bacterial repressors, and shows 54% identity with CcpA proteins from Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus megaterium. The L. casei ccpA gene was able to complement a B. subtilis ccpA mutant. An L. casei ccpA mutant ...
متن کاملGlucose transport by the phosphoenolpyruvate:mannose phosphotransferase system in Lactobacillus casei ATCC 393 and its role in carbon catabolite repression.
A 2-deoxy-D-glucose-resistant mutant of a pLZ15-cured derivative of Lactobacillus casei ATCC 393 was isolated on agar medium containing 10 mM 2-deoxy-D-glucose and 5 g lactose I-1. The mutant was impaired in the main glucose transport mechanism, a PTSman-type system. Additionally a proton-motive-force-dependent glucose permease was detected. The growth response and the sugar consumption rates o...
متن کاملThe functional ccpA gene is required for carbon catabolite repression in Lactobacillus plantarum.
We report the characterization of the ccpA gene of Lactobacillus plantarum, coding for catabolite control protein A. The gene is linked to the pepQ gene, encoding a proline peptidase, in the order ccpA-pepQ, with the two genes transcribed in tandem from the same strand as distinct transcriptional units. Two ccpA transcription start sites corresponding to two functional promoters were found, exp...
متن کاملCcpA-dependent carbon catabolite repression in bacteria.
Carbon catabolite repression (CCR) by transcriptional regulators follows different mechanisms in gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. In gram-positive bacteria, CcpA-dependent CCR is mediated by phosphorylation of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system intermediate HPr at a serine residue at the expense of ATP. The reaction is catalyzed by HPr kinase, which is activated by...
متن کاملCatabolite repression of the Bacillus subtilis gnt operon mediated by the CcpA protein.
Inducer exclusion was not important in catabolite repression of the Bacillus subtilis gnt operon. The CcpA protein (also known as AlsA) was found to be necessary for catabolite repression of the gnt operon, and a mutation (crsA47, which is an allele of the sigA gene) partially affected this catabolite repression.
