During growth on benzoate-minimal medium Pseudomonas putida mt-2 (PaW1) segregates
derivative ('cured') strains which have lost the ability to use the pathway encoded by its …

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the ability to use proline as a nitrogen source requires the
Put3p transcriptional regulator, which turns on the expression of the proline utilization …

Bacterial degradation of xylose is sequentially mediated by two enzymes–an isomerase
(XutA) and a xylulokinase (XutB)–with xylulose as an intermediate. P seudomonas …

The Pm promoter of the TOL plasmid of Pseudomonas putida is expressed at high level
along the growth curve. This transcription is dependent on the positive regulator XylS …

Despite the importance of the oxidative pentose phosphate (PP) pathway as a major source
of reducing power and metabolic intermediates for biosynthetic processes, almost no direct …

Pseudomonas putida F1 can assimilate benzene, toluene and ethylbenzene using the
toluene degradation pathway, and can also utilize p-cymene via p-cumate using the p …

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: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) plays a key role in
sugar uptake and metabolic regulation in bacteria. PTS proteins form a divergent …

Enzymes involved in (methyl) phenol degradation of Pseudomonas putida H are encoded
by the catabolic operon (phlA-L) on plasmid pPGH1. Transcription of this operon by the …

Divergent transcription of a regulatory gene and a cognate promoter under its control is a
common theme in bacterial regulatory circuits. This genetic organization is found for the …
