This gene is a member of the following regulons

CggR regulon

The gene

Basic information

  • Locus tag: BSU33940

Phenotypes of a mutant

Database entries

  • DBTBS entry: [1]
  • SubtiList entry:[2]

Additional information

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity: D-glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate + phosphate + NAD+ = 3-phospho-D-glyceroyl phosphate + NADH (according to Swiss-Prot)
    • This reaction is part of the glycolysis.
  • Protein family: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase family (according to Swiss-Prot)
  • Paralogous protein(s): GapB

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information: Michaelis-Menten PubMed
  • Modification:
    • phosphorylated on Arg-199 PubMed
    • Phosphorylation on (Ser-148 OR Ser-151 OR Thr-153 OR Thr-154) PubMed1, PubMed2
    • Reversible thiol modifications after exposure to toxic quinones PubMed
    • Cys152-Cys156 form intramolecular disulfide in response to disulfide stress (diamide, NaOCl-stress) PubMed
  • Effectors of protein activity:

Database entries

  • Structure:
    • 1GD1 (from Geobacillus stearothermophilus)
    • 1NQO (from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, mutant with cys 149 replaced by ser, complex with NAD+ und D-Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate)
  • KEGG entry: [3]

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

  • 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 PubMed
    • The 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 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 RNase Y PubMed

Biological materials

  • GFP fusion:
  • two-hybrid system: B. pertussis adenylate cyclase-based bacterial two hybrid system (BACTH), available in Jörg Stülke's lab
