Abstract excerpt
The Escherichia coli glycine cleavage enzyme system catalyzes the cleavage of glycine, generating CO2, NH3, and a one-carbon unit. Expression of the operon encoding this enzyme system (gcv) is induced in the presence of glycine and repressed in the presence of purines. In this study, a mutant wit...
