Abstract excerpt
SCO2127 and SCO2126 (glkA) are adjacent regions located in Streptomyces coelicolor DNA. glkA encodes glucose kinase (Glk), which has been implicated in carbon catabolite repression (CCR) in the genus Streptomyces. In this work, the glkA and SCO2127 genes from S. coelicolor were used, either individually or together, to transform three mutants of Streptomyces peucetius var. caesius resistant to CCR. These mutants...
