Phenotypes of a mutant

  • unable to grow with gluconeogenic substrates as single carbon source, this can be suppressed by mutations in cggR, zwf, pgpH, ltaS, yfnI, or upon overexpression of glmS PubMed
  • filamentous or L-shape-like aberrant morphologies (suppressed by Mg2+) PubMed, this is supressed by overexpression of MreB or by deletion of PBP1, ltaS, or yfnI PubMed
  • a pgcA glmR double mutant is not viable, this can be suppressed by overexpression of GlmM PubMed
  • The protein

    Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity

  • stimulates GlmS activity to facilitate the diversion of carbon from fructose-6-phosphate to peptidoglycan synthesis PubMed
  • Protein family

  • gluconeogenesis factor family (single member, according to UniProt)
  • Domains

  • phosphorylated on Thr-304 by PrkC, dephosphorylated by PrpC PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity

  • binds UDP-GlcNAc PubMed, this prevents the stimulation of GlmS activity PubMed
  • Structure

  • 2O2Z (the protein from B. halodurans, 63% identity, 86% similarity)
  • Localization

  • localized as a helical-like pattern PubMed
  • Expression and Regulation

    Additional information

  • translation is likely to require Efp due to the presence of several consecutive proline residues PubMed
