Abstract excerpt
Catabolite repression of the Lactobacillus plantarum bglH gene is mediated by the catabolite control protein A (CcpA). Here we show that the binding site for the protein is a catabolite-responsive element (cre) sequence overlapping the start site of transcription. Two single and one double base substitutions in the cre sequence caused derepression of a plasmid-borne bglH-cat transcriptional fusion in L. plantarum...
