Phenotypes of a mutant
Loss of carbon catabolite repression. Loss of [protein|14ED1AF5038F43F3B151FCBABE6CFC5A2DA3AA6E|ptsI]-dependent sugar transport due to excessive phosphorylation of [protein|29B793660E4D30C0656248F3EF403FEF76FB9025|HPr] by [protein|771F205F818A755A661B8E1C95365A4F6AEB05C7|hprK]
The mutant is unable to grow on a minimal medium with glucose and ammonium as the only sources of carbon and nitrogen, respectively, this can be suppressed by mutations resulting in hyperactive [protein|41199C76DF8CA804B7B8878D61228B9542A96AE4|topoisomerase I] or in the inactivation of [gene|56CBEBCFEF5CFB4A0175498338C7AF2F45EAA3E3|rocG] [pubmed|29242163,17183217]
