Abstract excerpt
The genes for cobalamin (vitamin B12) biosynthesis (cob) are coregulated with genes for degradation of propanediol (pdu). Both the cob and pdu operons are induced by propanediol by means of a positive regulatory protein, PocR. This coregulation of a synthetic and a degradative pathway reflects the fact that vitamin B12 is a required cofactor for the first enzyme in propanediol breakdown. The cob/pdu regulon is...
