Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli BglF protein catalyzes transport and phosphorylation of beta-glucosides. In addition, BglF is a membrane sensor which reversibly phosphorylates the transcriptional regulator BglG, depending on beta-glucoside availability. Therefore, BglF has three enzymatic activities: beta-glucoside phosphotransferase, BglG phosphorylase, and phospho-BglG (BglG-P) dephosphorylase. Cys-24 of BglF is the...
