Abstract

The main mechanism causing catabolite repression in Escherichia coli is the dephosphorylation of enzyme IIA Glc, one of the enzymes of the phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS). The PTS is involved in the uptake of a large number of carbohydrates that are phosphorylated during transport, phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) being the phosphoryl donor. Dephosphorylation of enzyme IIA Glc causes inhibition of uptake of a number of non‐PTS carbon sources, a process called inducer exclusion. In this paper, we show that dephosphorylation of enzyme IIA Glc is not only caused by the transport of PTS carbohydrates, as has always been thought, and that an additional mechanism causing dephosphorylation exists. Direct monitoring of the phosphorylation state of enzyme IIA Glc also showed that many carbohydrates that are not transported by the PTS caused dephosphorylation during growth. In the case of glucose 6‐phosphate, it was shown that transport and the first metabolic step are not involved in the dephosphorylation of enzyme IIA Glc, but that later steps in the glycolysis are essential. Evidence is provided that the [PEP]–[pyruvate] ratio, the driving force for the phosphorylation of the PTS proteins, determines the phosphorylation state of enzyme IIA Glc. The implications of these new findings for our view on catabolite repression and inducer exclusion are discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
