Abstract excerpt
The role of the Lactobacillus pentosus phosphoenolpyruvate:mannose phosphotransferase system (mannose PTS) in sugar transport and control of sugar utilization was investigated. Growth experiments and measurements of PEP-dependent phosphorylation of sugars, of sugar transport and of catabolic enzyme activity were performed, to compare a wild-type strain with an EIIB(Man) mutant, LPE6, and a ccpA mutant, LPE4....
