Expression of ptsG, the gene for the major glucose PTS transporter in Escherichia coli, is repressed by Mlc and induced by growth on glucose.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Aug 1998

Plumbridge J

Abstract excerpt

The gene for the glucose-specific transporter of the phosphotransferase system, ptsG, is expressed from two promoters separated by 141 bp. The expression of the major, shorter transcript is very strongly dependent upon cAMP/CAP. However, unlike other CAP-activated genes, the expression of ptsG is higher in glucose media than in glycerol, implying that ptsG is controlled by a glucose-inducible regulator. A...
