Abstract excerpt
To explore the possible occurrence of sources, other than GlgC, of ADPglucose linked to bacterial glycogen biosynthesis we characterized Escherichia coli and Salmonella DeltaglgCAP deletion mutants lacking the whole glycogen biosynthetic machinery. These mutants displayed the expected glycogen-less phenotype but accumulated ADPglucose. Importantly, DeltaglgCAP cells expressing the glycogen synthase encoding glgA...
