Role of Glutamate Synthase in Biofilm Formation by Bacillus subtilis.

Journal of bacteriology - 25 Jun 2020

Kimura Tan, Kobayashi Kazuo

Abstract excerpt

Bacillus subtilis forms robust biofilms in the presence of large amounts of carbon sources, such as glycerol. However, little is known about the importance of the metabolic systems, or the relationship between metabolic systems and regulatory systems, involved in biofilm formation. Glutamate synthase, encoded by gltAB, is an enzyme that converts 2-ketoglutarate (a tricarboxylic acid [TCA] cycle intermediate) and...
