Interactions
GapA-PtsH: [PtsH|search|HPr(Ser-46-P)] binds GapA resulting in a slight inhibition of enzymatic activity PubMedGapA-Crh: [Crh|search|Crh(Ser-46-P)] binds GapA resulting in a slight inhibition of enzymatic activity.PubMedGapA-YkzW PubMed Additional information
GAP dehydrogenases from different sources (incl. Geobacillus stearothermophilus) were shown to cleave RNA (PubMed)Moreover, mutations in gapA from B. subtilis can suppress mutations in genes involved in DNA replication (PubMed).extensive information on the structure and enzymatic properties of GapA can be found at Proteopedia Expression and Regulation
Operon
Sigma factor
Regulation
expression activated by glucose (10 fold) (CggR) PubMed Regulatory mechanism
Additional information
GapA is one of the most abundant proteins in the cell. In the presence of glucose, there are about 25,000 GapA molecules per cell (PubMed)belongs to the 100 most abundant proteins PubMedThe primary mRNAs of the operon are highly unstable. The primary mRNA is subject to processing at the very end of the 'cggR' open reading frame. This results in stable mature 'gapA' and 'gapA-pgk-tpiA-pgm-eno' mRNAs. PubMed The processing event requires the [Rny|search|RNase Y] PubMed.The accumulation of the 'cggR-gapA' mRNA is strongly dependent on the presence of the YkzW peptide, due to stabilization of the mRNA PubMed.the mRNA is substantially stabilized upon depletion of [Rny|search|RNase Y] PubMed Biological materials
