Details | UNLABELLED:The absence of PtsN, the terminal phosphoacceptor of the phosphotransferase system comprising PtsP-PtsO-PtsN, in Escherichia coli confers a potassium-sensitive (K(s)) phenotype as the external K(+) concentration ([K(+)]e) is increased above 5 mM. A growth-inhibitory increase in intracellular K(+) content, resulting from hyperactivated Trk-mediated K(+) uptake, is thought to cause this K(s) We provide evidence that the K(s) of the ΔptsN mutant is associated with K(+) limitation. Accordingly, ... |
