The maltodextrin system of Escherichia coli: metabolism and transport.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 2005

Dippel Renate, Boos Winfried

Abstract excerpt

The maltose/maltodextrin regulon of Escherichia coli consists of 10 genes which encode a binding protein-dependent ABC transporter and four enzymes acting on maltodextrins. All mal genes are controlled by MalT, a transcriptional activator that is exclusively activated by maltotriose. By the action of amylomaltase, we prepared uniformly labeled [(14)C]maltodextrins from maltose up to maltoheptaose with identical...
