Abstract excerpt
A proteome analysis of Lactobacillus casei mutants that are affected in carbon catabolite repression revealed that a 15-kDa protein was strongly overproduced in a ptsHI47T mutant. This protein was identified as EIIA of a mannose class phosphotransferase system (PTS). A 7.1-kb DNA fragment containing the EIIA-encoding open reading frame and five other genes was sequenced. The first gene encodes a protein...
