Abstract excerpt
Bacillus subtilis utilizes glucose as the preferred source of carbon and energy. Glucose is transported and concomitantly phosphorylated by the glucose permease (PtsG) of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system. The phosphate is transferred from enzyme I via HPr and domains IIA an...
