Abstract excerpt
Bacterial regulons involved in carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus metabolism must interact for purposes of coordination, but the mechanisms involved are not understood. We here report that the carbon control pro-tein-A (CcpA) of Bacillus subtilis, primarily concerned with carbon metabolism, influences expression of various phosphorus (pho) regulon genes including the two alkaline phosphatase structural genes, phoA...
