The gene that encodes the catabolite repressor/activator, Cra (FruR), of Pseudomonas
putida is divergent from the fruBKA operon for the uptake of fructose via the …

Abstract Fructose-1-phosphate (F1P) is the preferred effector of the catabolite
repressor/activator (Cra) protein of the soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida but its ability to …

Fructose uptake in the soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida occurs through a canonical
phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent sugar transport system (PTSFru). The logic of the …

The genome of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 encodes only five recognizable proteins
belonging to the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-carbohydrate phosphotransferase system …

The catabolite repressor/activator (Cra) protein is a global sensor and regulator of carbon
fluxes through the central metabolic pathways of Gram-negative bacteria. To examine the …

Two branches of the phosphoenolpyruvate-phosphotransferase system (PTS) operate in the
soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida KT2440. One branch encompasses a complete set of …

Numerous bacteria possess transcription activators and antiterminators composed of
regulatory domains phosphorylated by components of the phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar …

The bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP): carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS)
carries out both catalytic and regulatory functions. It catalyzes the transport and …

Although DNA is the ultimate repository of biological information, deployment of its
instructions is constrained by the metabolic and physiological status of the cell. To this end …

The phosphoenolpyruvate: carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS) catalyses the
transport of carbohydrates by coupling carbohydrate translocation and phosphorylation. In …
