CcpA-dependent regulation of Bacillus subtilis glutamate dehydrogenase gene expression.
The Bacillus subtilis rocG gene, encoding catabolic glutamate dehydrogenase, was found to be subject to direct CcpA-dependent glucose repression. The effect of CcpA required the presence of both the HPr and Crh proteins. The primary CcpA binding site was identified by mutational analysis and DNase I footprinting. In the absence of inducers of the Roc pathway, rocG was still expressed at a low l...
متن کاملCatabolite regulation of Bacillus subtilis acetate and acetoin utilization genes by CcpA.
The Bacillus subtilis acsA (acetyl coenzyme A synthetase) and acuABC (acetoin utilization) genes were previously identified in the region downstream from the ccpA gene, which encodes a protein required for catabolite repression of the amyE (alpha-amylase) gene. The acsA and acuABC genes are divergently transcribed, with only 20 bp separating the -35 sequences of their promoters. Expression of t...
متن کاملAllosteric regulation of Bacillus subtilis NAD kinase by quinolinic acid.
NADP is essential for biosynthetic pathways, energy, and signal transduction. In living organisms, NADP biosynthesis proceeds through the phosphorylation of NAD with a reaction catalyzed by NAD kinase. We expressed, purified, and characterized Bacillus subtilis NAD kinase. This enzyme represents a new member of the inorganic polyphosphate [poly(P)]/ATP NAD kinase subfamily, as it can use poly(P...
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.
متن کاملCloning of the glycerol kinase gene of Bacillus subtilis.
A 3.5 kb fragment of Bacillus subtilis DNA which contains wild type alleles of mutations in glpK (glycerol kinase) and glpD (glycerol-3-phosphate [G3P] dehydrogenase) was cloned in plasmid pHV32 in Escherichia coli. The cloned fragment expresses glycerol kinase in B. subtilis mutants carrying the mutations glpK11 and recE4 after induction with glycerol or G3P whereas it does not express G3P deh...
