A cellulase/xylanase-negative mutant of Streptomyces lividans 1326 defective in cellobiose and xylobiose uptake is mutated in a gene encoding a protein homologous to ATP-binding proteins.

Abstract excerpt

The uptake of monosaccharides (glucose and xylose) and disaccharides (cellobiose and xylobiose) was evaluated in the Streptomyces lividans mutant strain 10-164. The pleiotropic mutation had no effect on glucose uptake; however, the Vmax of xylose uptake was decreased 10-fold as compared to the wild-type strain, S. lividans 1326, and the transport system of cellobiose and xylobiose, the putative inducers of the...
