Genetics and regulation of the major enzymes of alanine synthesis in Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 2010

Kim Sok Ho, Schneider Barbara L, Reitzer Larry

Abstract excerpt

Genetic analysis of alanine synthesis in the model genetic organism Escherichia coli has implicated avtA, the still uncharacterized alaA and alaB genes, and probably other genes. We identified alaA as yfbQ. We then transferred mutations in several transaminase genes into a yfbQ mutant and isolated a mutant that required alanine for optimal growth. For cells grown with carbon sources other than pyruvate, the major...
