Abstract excerpt
We have isolated and characterized a highly pleiotropic Escherichia coli mutant affected in the activity of a number of enzymes involved in different metabolic pathways, all of which are regulated by leucine. Selected for its ability to grow with L-serine as sole carbon source, the rbl-1::Tn10 mutant had high levels of L-serine deaminase activity (due to increased transcription of the structural gene) and of...
