The bacterial phosphotransferase system (PTS) functions not only in sugar uptake but also as a central regulatory hub coordinating carbon and nitrogen metabolism, stress responses and pathogenic ...
Bacterial transport of many sugars, coupled to their phosphorylation, is carried out by the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP):sugar phosphotransferase system and involves five phosphoryl group transfer ...
The phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PTS) is ubiquitous in eubacteria and absent from eukaryotes. The system consists of two phosphoryl carriers, enzyme I (EI) and the ...
