Isolation of Bacillus subtilis mutants pleiotropically insensitive to glucose catabolite repression.
A pleiotropic mutant of Bacillus subtilis was isolated which overproduced in the presence of glucose several enzymes whose synthesis is subject to glucose catabolite repression. Examination of intracellular metabolites suggested that the mutation may have resulted in a defect in glycolysis, increasing phosphoenolpyruvate and decreasing pyruvate, 2-ketoglutarate, and oxaloacetate.
