Sensing by the membrane-bound sensor kinase DcuS: exogenous versus endogenous sensing of C(4)-dicarboxylates in bacteria.

2010

Bacteria are able to grow at the expense of both common (succinate, L-malate, fumarate and aspartate) and uncommon (L-tartrate and D-malate) C4-dicarboxylates, which are components of central metabolism. Two types of sensors/regulators responding to the C4-dicarboxylates function in Escherichia coli, Bacillus, Lactobacillus and related bacteria. The first type represents membrane-integral two-component systems, while the second includes cytoplasmic LysR-type transcriptional regulators. The difference in location and substrate specificity allows the exogenous induction of metabolic genes by common C4-dicarboxylates, and endogenous induction by uncommon C4-dicarboxylates. The two-component s…
