Phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system enzyme III and plasmid-encoded sucrose transport in Escherichia coli K-12.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent carbohydrate:phosphotransferase system enzyme IISCR, specific for and regulated by sucrose, was analyzed in derivatives of Escherichia coli K-12 carrying the sucrose plasmid pUR404. Enzyme IIScr, coded for by gene scrA of the plasmid, depended for its transport and phosphorylation activity directly on the phosphotransferase system enzyme IIIGlc, Scr, coded for by the chromosomal gene crr.

Plasmid-mediated uptake and metabolism of sucrose by Escherichia coli K-12.
The conjugative plasmid pUR400 determines tetracycline resistance and enables cells of Escherichia coli K-12 to utilize sucrose as the sole carbon source. Three types of mutants affecting sucrose metabolism were derived from pUR400. One type lacked a specific transport system (srcA); another lacked sucrose-6-phosphate hydrolase (scrB); and the third, a regulatory mutant, expressed both of these...
متن کاملEscherichia coli Phosphoenolpyruvate Dependent Phosphotransferase System. Copurification of HPr and C Y - 6 Glucant
A rapid, high-yield procedure has been developed for the purification of HPr from the Escherichia coli phosphoenolpyruvate dependent phosphotransferase system. During this procedure, the protein copurifies with a 2500dalton homopolysaccharide which we have identified as (Y 1-6 T h e phosphoenolpyruvate dependent hexose transport system is, relative to the number of macromolecules involved, a ra...
متن کاملEnzyme III stimulation of cyclic AMP synthesis in an Escherichia coli crp mutant.
Cyclic AMP (cAMP) synthesis in Escherichia coli is altered in cAMP receptor protein mutants and in phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase transport system mutants. The stimulation of cAMP synthesis observed in cAMP receptor protein-deficient mutants is largely dependent upon enzyme III of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase transport system. The phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phos...
متن کاملCharacterization and nucleotide sequence of the cryptic cel operon of Escherichia coli K12.
Wild-type Escherichia coli are not able to utilize beta-glucoside sugars because the genes for utilization of these sugars are cryptic. Spontaneous mutations in the cel operon allow its expression and enable the organism to ferment cellobiose, arbutin and salicin. In this report we describe the structure and nucleotide sequence of the cel operon. The cel operon consists of five genes: celA, who...
متن کاملCharacterization of soluble enzyme II complexes of the Escherichia coli phosphotransferase system.
Plasmid-encoded His-tagged glucose permease of Escherichia coli, the enzyme IIBCGlc (IIGlc), exists in two physical forms, a membrane-integrated oligomeric form and a soluble monomeric form, which separate from each other on a gel filtration column (peaks 1 and 2, respectively). Western blot analyses using anti-His tag monoclonal antibodies revealed that although IIGlc from the two fractions mi...
