Abstract excerpt
An investigation was made into the role of the ptsO gene in carbon source inhibition of the Pu promoter belonging to the Pseudomonas putida upper TOL (toluene degradation) operon. ptsO is coexpressed with ptsN, the loss of which is known to render Pu unresponsive to glucose. Both ptsN and ptsO, coding for the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) family proteins IIA(Ntr) and NPr, respectively,...
