✦ Synopsis


PhoS64 is a mutation in the Phosphate Specific Transport (PST) region on the E. coli chromosome which lacks the periplasmic phosphate binding protein. In contrast to other phoS mutations (which have the same phenotype) it complements the mutations in phoT and pstB. A detailed genetic map of the PST region constructed by three point transductional crosses has revealed that phoS64 is located distally from other phoS mutations. The genetic order obtained was phoS64-phoU35-pstB401-phoT-phoS-ilvC. The data indicate that phoS64 belongs to a different complementation unit in the PST region not known hitherto. We propose to name it phoV.

The periplasmic phosphate binding protein is a product of the phoSgene and is an essential component of the phosphate specific transport (PST) system, which mediates Pi uptake in Escherichia coll. The binding of Pi to periplasmic protein(s) and the kinetic parameters of Pi uptake were studied in pho

An inorganic phosphate transport mutant has been isolated as a sn-glycerol-3-phosphate auxotroph and characterized genetically. Two lesions are responsible for the transport defect. One lesion, pst, is located at minute 74 of the E. coli genetic map while the other lesion, pit, is located at minute

## Abstract The cold osmotic shock procedure releases a protein (GLPT) from the cell envelope of Escherichia coli that is related to the transport of sn‐glycerol‐3‐phosphate in this organism. The evidence for this correlation is as follows: (1) GLPT is under the regulatory control of the glpR gene.

The ugp structural genes, coding for the pho regulon dependent sn-glycerol-3-phosphate transport system, were cloned in pBR322 and characterized. The expression of the cloned ugp system was phoB dependent. Cells containing the ugp plasmid overproduced the G3P binding protein upon phosphate starvatio

Starting with a strain containing a malK-lacZ fusion, a series of lambda plaque-forming phages which carry varying amounts of the malE,F operon have been isolated. We have used these phages to construct a deletion map of the malE,F operon. The construction of this deletion map has led to the identif
