Abstract

Sugar uptake and cytoplasmic inducer generation as well as cyclic AMP synthesis are regulated by the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) in Gramโ€negative enteric bacteria. In these organisms, the free form of the glucoseโ€specific Enzyme IIA (IIA^glc^) of the PTS, which can be phosphorylated on a histidyl residue by PEP and the PTS energy coupling proteins, inhibits the activities of nonโ€PTS carbohydrate permeases and catabolic enzymes. By contrast, the phosphorylated form of IIA^glc^ appears to activate adenylate cyclase, the cyclic AMP biosynthetic enzyme. What is known of the molecular details of these regulatory interactions will be summarized, and a novel regulatory mechanism involving the fructose repressor, FruR, which controls the transcription of genes encoding enzymes which catalyze reactions in central pathways of carbon metabolism, will be presented. ยฉ 1993 Wileyโ€Liss, Inc.

HPr of the Gram-positive bacterial phosphotransferase system (PTS) can be phosphorylated by an ATP-dependent protein kinase on a serine residue or by PEP-dependent Enzyme I on a histidyl residue. Both phosphorylation events appear to influence the metabolism of non-PTS carbon sources. Catabolite rep
