Levanase operon of Bacillus subtilis includes a fructose-specific phosphotransferase system regulating the expression of the operon.

Journal of molecular biology - 5 Aug 1990

Martin-Verstraete I, Débarbouillé M, Klier A, Rapoport G

Abstract excerpt

The levanase gene (sacC) of Bacillus subtilis is the distal gene of a fructose-inducible operon containing five genes. The complete nucleotide sequence of this operon was determined. The first four genes levD, levE, levF and levG encode polypeptides that are similar to proteins of the mannose phosphotransferase system of Escherichia coli. The levD and levE gene products are homologous to the N and C-terminal part...
