A new piece of an old jigsaw: glucose kinase is activated posttranslationally in a glucose transport-dependent manner in streptomyces coelicolor A3(2).

Abstract excerpt

Members of the soil-dwelling prokaryotic genus Streptomyces are indispensable for the recycling of complex polysaccharides, and produce a wide range of natural products. Nutrient limitation is likely to be a major signal for the onset of their development, resulting in spore formation by specialized aerial hyphae. Streptomycetes grow on numerous carbon sources, which they utilize in a preferential manner. The...
