Abstract excerpt
The proline utilization (put) operon from Salmonella typhimurium consists of the putP gene, encoding a proline transporter, and the putA gene, encoding an enzyme with both proline dehydrogenase and 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase activities. In addition to these two enzymatic activities, the PutA protein is a transcriptional repressor that regulates the expression of putP and putA in response to the...
