The phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP): carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS) is found
only in bacteria, where it catalyzes the transport and phosphorylation of numerous …

Numerous gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria take up carbohydrates through the
phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP): carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS). This system …

Bacteria synthesize a number of different sigma factors which allow the co‐ordinate
expression of groups of genes owing to the ability of sigma to confer promoter‐specific …

We report analyses of 202 fully sequenced genomes for homologues of known protein
constituents of the bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system …

Three-dimensional structures have been elucidated for very few integral membrane
proteins. Computer methods can be used as guides for estimation of solute transport protein …

The structure of many proteins consists of a combination of discrete modules that have been
shuffled during evolution. Such modules can frequently be recognized from the analysis of …

The phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase sys-tem (PTS) consists of two general
energy-coupling proteins, enzyme I and HPr, as well as the sugar-specific permeases …

Abstract In 1964, Kundig, Ghosh and Roseman reported the discovery of the
phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS), which they subsequently …

Purple photosynthetic bacteria exhibit great diversity in the metabolism of simple carbon
compounds. In this chapter, the reactions and metabolic schemes that the organisms …

Summary In 1964, Kundig, Ghosh and Roseman reported the discovery of the
phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS). Thirty years later, we find …
