Abstract excerpt
In Bacillus subtilis, carbon catabolite repression (CCR) is mediated by the pleiotropic repressor CcpA and by ATP-dependent phosphorylation of the HPr protein of the phosphotransferase system (PTS). In this study, we attempted to identify novel genes that are involved in the signal transduction pathway that ultimately results in CCR in the presence of repressing carbon sources such as glucose. Seven mutants...
