| Abstract | Carbon catabolite repression of the gnt operon of Bacillus subtilis is mediated by the catabolite control protein CcpA and by HPr, a phosphocarrier protein of the phosphotransferase system. ATP-dependent phosphorylation of HPr at Ser-46 is required for carbon catabolite repression as ptsH1 mutants in which Ser-46 of HPr is replaced with an unphosphorylatable alanyl residue are resistant to carbon catabolite repression. We here demonstrate that mutation of His-15 of HPr, the site of phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation, also prevents carbon catabolite repression of the gnt operon. A strain which expressed two mutant HPrs (one in which Ser-46 is replaced by Ala [S46A HPr] and one in which His-15 is replaced by Ala [H15A HPr]) on the chromosome was barely sensitive to carbon catabolite repression, although the H15A mutant HPr can be phosphorylated at Ser-46 by the ATP-dependent HPr kinase in vitro and in vivo. The S46D mutant HPr which structurally resembles seryl-phosphorylated HPr has a repressive effect on gnt expression even in the absence of a repressing sugar. By contrast, the doubly mutated H15E,S46D HPr, which resembles the doubly phosphorylated HPr because of the negative charges introduced by the mutations at both phosphorylation sites, had no such effect. In vitro assays substantiated these findings and demonstrated that in contrast to the wild-type seryl-phosphorylated HPr and the S46D mutant HPr, seryl-phosphorylated H15A mutant HPr and H15E,S46D doubly mutated HPr did not interact with CcpA. These results suggest that His-15 of HPr is important for carbon catabolite repression and that either mutation or phosphorylation at His-15 can prevent carbon catabolite repression. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
