Escherichia coli can synthesize trehalose in response to osmotic stress and is able to utilize
trehalose as a carbon source. The pathway of trehalose utilization is different at low and …

The disaccharide trehalose acts as an osmoprotectant as well as a carbon source in
Escherichia coli. At high osmolarity of the growth medium, the cells synthesize large …

Escherichia coli can use the nonreducing disaccharide trehalose as a sole source of carbon
and energy. Trehalose transport into the cell is mediated via the phosphotransferase system …

Trehalose production in Escherichia coli DH5α was explored by overexpressing otsBA
operon encoding trehalose-6-phosphate synthase and trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase …

Trehalose transport and metabolism in Escherichia coli are induced by trehalose in the
growth medium but only at low osmolarity. In contrast, synthesis of internal trehalose as an …

Trehalose metabolism in Escherichia coli is complicated by the fact that cells grown at high
osmolarity synthesize internal trehalose as an osmoprotectant, independent of the carbon …

It has been reported previously that Escherichia coli K-12 carries an amber mutation that
prevents osmotic stress-dependent accumulation of trehalose (ML Rod, KY Alam, PR …

The treA gene of Escherichia coli K12 codes for a periplasmic trehalase that is induced by
growth at high osmolarity. The position of treA within a cloned chromosomal DNA fragment …

Trehalases play a central role in the metabolism of trehalose and can be found in a wide
variety of organisms. A periplasmic trehalase (α, α-trehalose glucohydrolase, EC 3.2. 1.28) …

We have studied trehalose uptake in Salmonella typhimurium and the possible involvement
of the phosphoenolpyruvate: carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS) in this …
