Ammonium utilization in Bacillus subtilis: transport and regulatory functions of NrgA and NrgB.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Nov 2003

Detsch Christian, Stülke Jörg

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus subtilis uses glutamine as the best source of nitrogen. In the absence of glutamine, alternative nitrogen sources such as ammonium can be used. Ammonium utilization involves the uptake of the gas or the ammonium ion, the synthesis of glutamine by the glutamine synthetase and the recycling of the glutamate by the glutamate synthase. In this work, ammonium transport in B. subtilis was studied. At high...
