(Submitter supplied) The phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) is the major carbohydrate transport system in oral streptococci. The mannose-PTS of Streptococcus mutans, which transports mannose and glucose, is involved in carbon catabolite repression (CCR) and regulates the expression of known virulence genes. In this study, we investigated the role of EIIGlc and EIIABMan in sugar metabolism, gene regulation, biofilm formation, and competence. more...

(Submitter supplied) The glucose/mannose-PTS permease EIIMan encoded by manLMN in the dental caries pathogen Streptococcus mutans has a dominant influence on sugar-specific, CcpA-independent catabolite repression (CR). Mutations in manL affect energy metabolism and virulence-associated traits, including biofilm formation, acid tolerance and competence. Using promoter:reporter fusions, expression of the manLMN and the fruRKI operons, encoding a transcriptional regulator, a fructose-1-P kinase and a fructose-PTS permease EIIFru, respectively, was monitored in response to carbohydrate source and in mutants lacking CcpA, FruR, and components of EIIMan. more...

(Submitter supplied) The transport of carbohydrates by Streptococcus mutans is accomplished by the phosphoenolpyruvate-phosphotrasferase system (PTS) and ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. To undertake a global transcriptional analysis of all S. mutans sugar transporters simultaneously, we used a whole-genome expression microarray. Global transcription profiles of S. mutans UA159 were determined for several carbohydrates. more...

(Submitter supplied) Identification of the major PEP-phosphotransferase systems (PTS) for glucose, mannose and cellobiose of Listeria monocytogenes, and their significance for extra- and intracellular growth. Transcriptional profile of prfA, the dependent genes and the PTS genes after growth in MM (minimal medium (Premaratne et al. 2001)) (supplemented with 10 mM Glucose). Listeria monocytogenes EGD-e possesses 86 pts genes encoding 29 complete and several incomplete PEP-dependent phosphotransferase systems (PTS) for the transport of carbohydrates and sugar alcohols. more...

(Submitter supplied) CcpA is a global regulator of transcription in Gram-positive bacteria that controls gene expression in response to carbohydrate availability. Using the fructan hydrolase (fruA) gene of S. mutans as a model, we demonstrate that CcpA does indeed play a major role in carbohydrate catabolite repression. Using DNA microarrays, the expression of at least 170 genes differed in CcpA-deficient cells compared to the parental strains when cells are grown in the presence of glucose, but only 90 genes showed altered expression when cells were cultivated in the poorly-repressing substrate galactose. more...

(Submitter supplied) The genetic and phenotypic responses of Streptococcus mutans, an organism known to be strongly associated with the development of dental caries, to changes in carbohydrate availability were investigated. S. mutans UA159 or a derivative of UA159 lacking ManL, which is the EIIAB component (EIIABMan) of a glucose/mannose permease of the phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) and a dominant effector of catabolite repression, were grown in continuous culture to steady-state in conditions of excess (100 mM) or limiting (10 mM) glucose. more...

(Submitter supplied) In this study we showed that one PTS of S. mutans is specific for biofilm mode of growth in the presence of sucrose. Our data indicates that this PTS is involved in transport and metabolism of disaccharides and possibly oligosaccharides synthesized by GtfI and GtfSI.

(Submitter supplied) In this study we analyzed the transcriptional regulation of the operon (OBio) encoding the PTSBio and showed that it was repressed by NigR, a LacI-like transcriptional regulator. To elucidate the role of NigR in regulation of S. mutans carbohydrate transporters we performed full genome expression microarrays using custom Affymetrix chip. Expression microarray analysis was performed with ΔnigR grown in CDM supplemented with glucose and compared to that of WT grown under identical conditions. more...

(Submitter supplied) Streptococcus mutans, the primary etiologic agent of human dental caries, and a variety of oral Streptococcus and Actinomyces spp. synthesize high molecular mass homopolymers of fructose (fructans) with predominantly β2,1- (inulins) or β2,6-linkages (levans). The ability of S. mutans to degrade fructans contributes to the severity of dental caries. The extracellular product of fruA of S. mutans is an exo-β-D-fructofuranosidase that releases fructose from levan and inulin. more...

(Submitter supplied) Streptococcus mutans, the organism most frequently associated with the development of dental caries, is able to utilize a diverse array of carbohydrates for energy metabolism. One such molecule is trehalose, a disaccharide common in human foods, which has recently been implicated in enhancing the virulence of epidemic strains of the pathogen, Clostridium difficile. In this study, deletion mutants of all three genes in the putative S. more...
