A comparative study of the evolution of cellobiose utilization in Escherichia coli and Shigella sonnei.

Archives of microbiology - 1 Mar 2017

Joseph Asha Mary, Sonowal Robert, Mahadevan Subramony

Abstract excerpt

The chb operon of Escherichia coli is involved in the utilization of chitooligosaccharides. While acquisition of two classes of mutations leading to altered regulation of the chb operon is necessary to confer the ability to utilize the glucose disaccharide cellobiose to wild-type strains of E. coli, in the closely related organism Shigella sonnei, Cel+ mutants arise relatively faster, requiring only a single...
