The phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP): carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS) is found
only in bacteria, where it catalyzes the transport and phosphorylation of numerous …

Metabolically versatile free-living bacteria have global regulation systems that allow cells to
selectively assimilate a preferred compound among a mixture of several potential carbon …

Glucose catabolism of P seudomonas putida is carried out exclusively through the E ntner–
D oudoroff (ED) pathway due to the absence of 6‐phosphofructokinase. In order to activate …

In this study, we show that glucose catabolism in Pseudomonas putida occurs through the
simultaneous operation of three pathways that converge at the level of 6-phosphogluconate …

Transcriptional activation of many bacterial promoters in their natural environment is not a
simple on/off decision. The expression of cognate genes is integrated in layers of iterative …

In addition to the sugar phosphotransferase system (sugar PTS) dedicated to carbohydrate
uptake, many Gram-negative bacteria possess a so-called nitrogen PTS (PTS Ntr). Although …

While the natural niches of the soil bacterium P seudomonas putida are unlikely to include
significant amounts of free glycerol as a growth substrate, this bacterium is genetically …

The Crc protein is a global translational regulator involved in catabolite repression of
catabolic pathways for several non‐preferred carbon sources in Pseudomonads when other …

In Pseudomonas putida, genes for the glucose phosphorylative pathway and the Entner-
Doudoroff pathway are organized in two operons; one made up of the zwf, pgl, and eda …

Pseudomonas putida KT2440 channels glucose to the central Entner-Doudoroff
intermediate 6-phosphogluconate through three convergent pathways. The genes for these …
