Nucleotide sequence of the Escherichia coli cad operon: a system for neutralization of low extracellular pH

Nucleotide sequence of the Escherichia coli cad operon: a system for neutralization of low extracellular pH.

Lysine decarboxylase of Escherichia coli has been the subject of enzymological studies, and the gene encoding lysine decarboxylase (cadA) and a regulatory gene (cadR) have been mapped. This enzyme is induced at low pH in the presence of lysine and achieves maximal level under anaerobic conditions. The induction of lysine decarboxylase increases the pH of the extracellular medium and provides a ...

Glucitol-specific enzymes of the phosphotransferase system in Escherichia coli. Nucleotide sequence of the gut operon.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the glucitol (gut) operon in Escherichia coli has been determined. The glucitol-specific Enzyme II and Enzyme III of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system as well as glucitol-6-phosphate dehydrogenase which are encoded by the gutA, gutB, and gutD genes of the gut operon, respectively, are predicted to consist of 506 (Mr = 54,018), 123 (Mr = ...

Identification of elements involved in transcriptional regulation of the Escherichia coli cad operon by external pH.

Expression of the lysine decarboxylase gene (cadA) of Escherichia coli is induced upon external acidification. To dissect the molecular mechanisms responsible for this regulation, we analyzed a 4.2-kbp region upstream from cadA. DNA sequencing revealed two long open reading frames upstream of and on the same strand as cadA. One of these, cadB, is 444 codons long and is situated immediately upst...
