Abstract excerpt
In Escherichia coli, expression of certain genes and operons, including the fructose operon, is controlled by Cra, the pleiotropic catabolite repressor/activator protein formerly known as FruR. In this study we have demonstrated that cra mutant strains synthesize 10-fold less cAMP than isogenic w...
