Regulation of the raffinose permease of Escherichia coli by the glucose-specific enzyme IIA of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system.
In enteric bacteria, chromosomally encoded permeases specific for lactose, maltose, and melibiose are allosterically regulated by the glucose-specific enzyme IIA of the phosphotransferase system. We here demonstrate that the plasmid-encoded raffinose permease of enteric bacteria is similarly subject to this type of inhibition.
