Positive regulation of the pts operon of Escherichia coli: genetic evidence for a signal transduction mechanism.
Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jan 1991

Abstract excerpt
The pts operon of Escherichia coli is composed of the genes ptsH, ptsI, and crr, which code for three proteins of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS): the HPr, enzyme I (EI), and EIIIGlc proteins, respectively. These three genes are organized in a complex operon in which the major part of expression of the distal gene, crr, is initiated from a promoter region within ptsI. Expression...
