| Abstract | The inhibition of beta-galactosidase expression in a medium containing both glucose and lactose is a typical example of the glucose effect in Escherichia coli. We studied the glucose effect in the lacL8UV5 promoter mutant, which is independent of cAMP and cAMP receptor protein (CRP). A strong inhibition of beta-galactosidase expression by glucose and a diauxic growth were observed when the lacL8UV5 cells were grown on a glucose-lactose medium. The addition of isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactoside to the culture medium eliminated the glucose effect. Disruption of the crr gene or overproduction of LacY also eliminated the glucose effect. These results are fully consistent with our previous finding that the glucose effect in wild-type cells growing in a glucose-lactose medium is not due to the reduction of CRP-cAMP levels but is due to the inducer exclusion. We found that the glucose effect in the lacL8UV5 cells was no longer observed when either the crp or the cya gene was disrupted. Evidence suggested that CRP-cAMP may not enhance directly the lac repressor action in vivo. Northern blot analysis revealed that the mRNA for ptsG, a major glucose transporter gene, was markedly reduced in a delta crp or delta cya background. The constitutive expression of the ptsG gene by the introduction of a multicopy plasmid restored the glucose effect in delta cya or delta crp cells. We conclude that CRP-cAMP plays a crucial role in inducer exclusion, which is responsible for the glucose-lactose diauxie, by activating the expression of the ptsG gene. |

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.
