Abstract:
Histidine-containing protein (HPr) is a central component of the bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS). This brief review covers recent structure–function studies on the active center of this protein: the role of the active center residues in phosphotransfer; the residues contributing to the phosphohydrolysis properties of HPr; and the contribution residues in HPr make to the pKaof the transiently phosphorylated active-site residue, His 15. As well, the potential for HPr to be used as a model protein for studying problems not directly associated with its function in the PTS is discussed.Key words: phosphoenolpyruvate: sugar phosphotransferase system, histidine-containing protein, active center, structure–function, model protein.

Abstract:
Ten Spiroplasma species tested were found capable of fermenting glucose, mannose, fructose, and sucrose, but not ribose, maltose, 2-deoxyglucose, xylose, sorbitol, glactose, lactose, and arabinose. Sugar utilization was measured by a direct measurement of the changes in pH of a washed cell suspension upon the addition of the various sugars. Sulfhydryl reagents, uncouplers, and glycolysis inhibitors prevented the sugar-induced pH shifts. The spiroplasmas were capable of phosporylating α-methylgucoside in a reaction that required phosphoenolypyruvate, but not ATP, as a phosphate donor, suggesting that Spiroplasma species possess a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system. Key words: Spiroplasma, carbohydrate utilization, pH changes, phosphenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system.

Abstract:
A double-spontaneous mutant resistant to the growth inhibitory effect of α-methylglucoside and 2-deoxyglucose was isolated from Streptococcus salivarius. This mutant strain, called αS3L11, did not grow on mannose and grew poorly on 5 mM fructose and 5 mM glucose. Isolated membranes of strain αS3L11 were unable to catalyse the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of mannose in the presence of purified enzyme I and HPr. Addition of dialysed membrane-free cellular extract of the wild-type strain to the reaction medium restored the activity. The factor that restored the phosphoenolpyruvate–mannose phosphotransferase activity to membranes of strain αS3L11 was called IIIman. This factor was partially purified from the wild-type strain by DEAE-cellulose chromatography, DEAE-TSK chromatography, and molecular seiving on a column of Ultrogel AcA 34. This partially purified preparation also enhanced the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of glucose, fructose, and 2-deoxyglucose in strain αS3L11.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Plasmid-encoded His-tagged glucose permease of Escherichia coli, the enzyme IIBCGlc (IIGlc), exists in two physical forms, a membrane-integrated oligomeric form and a soluble monomeric form, which separate from each other on a gel filtration column (peaks 1 and 2, respectively). Western blot analyses using anti-His tag monoclonal antibodies revealed that although IIGlc from the two fractions migrated similarly in sodium dodecyl sulfate gels, the two fractions migrated differently on native gels both before and after Triton X-100 treatment. Peak 1 IIGlc migrated much more slowly than peak 2 IIGlc. Both preparations exhibited both phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent sugar phosphorylation activity and sugar phosphate-dependent sugar transphosphorylation activity. The kinetics of the transphosphorylation reaction catalyzed by the two IIGlc fractions were different: peak 1 activity was subject to substrate inhibition, while peak 2 activity was not. Moreover, the pH optima for the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent activities differed for the two fractions. The results provide direct evidence that the two forms of IIGlc differ with respect to their physical states and their catalytic activities. These general conclusions appear to be applicable to the His-tagged mannose permease of E. coli. Thus, both phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system enzymes exist in soluble and membrane-integrated forms that exhibit dissimilar physical and kinetic properties.

ABSTRACT We report that a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system, MalT, is the principal maltose transporter for Streptococcus mutans. MalT also contributes to maltotriose uptake. Since maltose and maltodextrins are products of starch degradation found in saliva, the ability to take up and ferment these carbohydrates may contribute to dental caries.

Abstract:
Bacillus sphaericus, a bacterium of biotechnological interest due to its ability to produce mosquitocidal toxins, is unable to use sugars as carbon source. However, ptsHI genes encoding HPr and EI proteins belonging to a PTS were cloned, sequenced and characterized. Both HPr and EI proteins were fully functional for phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent transphosphorylation in complementation assays using extracts from Staphylococcus aureus mutants for one of these proteins. HPr(His6) was purified from wild-type and a Ser46/Gln mutant of B. sphaericus, and used for in vitro phosphorylation experiments using extracts from either B. sphaericus or Bacillus subtilis as kinase source. The results showed that both phosphorylated forms, P-Ser46-HPr and P-His15-HPr, could be obtained. The findings also proved indirectly the existence of an HPr kinase activity in B. sphaericus. The genetic structure of these ptsHI genes has some unusual features, as they are co-transcribed with genes encoding metabolic enzymes related to N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) catabolism (nagA, nagB and an undetermined orf2). In fact, this bacterium was able to utilize this amino sugar as carbon and energy source, but a ptsH null mutant had lost this characteristic. Investigation of GlcNAc uptake and streptozotocin inhibition in both a wild-type and a ptsH null mutant strain led to the proposal that GlcNAc is transported and phosphorylated by an EIINag element of the PTS, as yet uncharacterized. In addition, GlcNAc-6-phosphate deacetylase and GlcN-6-phosphate deaminase activities were determined; both were induced in the presence of GlcNAc. These results, together with the authors' recent findings of the presence of a phosphofructokinase activity, are strongly indicative of a glycolytic pathway in B. sphaericus. They also open new possibilities for genetic improvements in industrial applications.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Bacillus subtilis can utilize maltose and maltodextrins that are derived from polysaccharides, like starch or glycogen. In this work, we show that maltose is taken up by a member of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system and maltodextrins are taken up by a maltodextrin-specific ABC transporter. Uptake of maltose by the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system is mediated by maltose-specific enzyme IICB (MalP; synonym, GlvC), with an apparent Km of 5 μM and a V max of 91 nmol · min−1 · (1010 CFU)−1. The maltodextrin-specific ABC transporter is composed of the maltodextrin binding protein MdxE (formerly YvdG), with affinities in the low micromolar range for maltodextrins, and the membrane-spanning components MdxF and MdxG (formerly YvdH and YvdI, respectively), as well as the energizing ATPase MsmX. Maltotriose transport occurs with an apparent Km of 1.4 μM and a V max of 4.7 nmol · min−1 · (1010 CFU)−1.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The fermentative metabolism of glucose was redirected to succinate as the primary product without mutating any genes encoding the native mixed-acid fermentation pathway or redox reactions. Two changes in peripheral pathways were together found to increase succinate yield fivefold: (i) increased expression of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and (ii) inactivation of the glucose phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system. These two changes increased net ATP production, increased the pool of phosphoenolpyruvate available for carboxylation, and increased succinate production. Modest further improvements in succinate yield were made by inactivating the pflB gene, encoding pyruvate formate lyase, resulting in an E scherichia coli pathway that is functionally similar to the native pathway in Actinobacillus succinogenes and other succinate-producing rumen bacteria.

Abstract:
The phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PEP-PTS) and adenylate cyclase (AC) IV (encoded by BB0723 [cyaB]) are well conserved in different species ofBorrelia. However, the functional roles of PEP-PTS and AC in the infectious cycle ofBorreliahave not been characterized previously. We examined 12 PEP-PTS transporter component mutants by needle inoculation of mice to assess their ability to cause mouse infection. Transposon mutants with mutations in the EIIBC components (ptsG) (BB0645, thought to be involved in glucose-specific transport) were unable to cause infection in mice, while all other tested PEP-PTS mutants retained infectivity. Infectivity was partially restored in an intrans-complemented strain of theptsGmutant. While theptsGmutant survived normally in unfed as well as fed ticks, it was unable to cause infection in mice by tick transmission, suggesting that the function ofptsGis essential to establish infection by either needle inoculation or tick transmission. In Gram-negative organisms, the regulatory effects of the PEP-PTS are mediated by adenylate cyclase and cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels. A recombinant protein encoded byB. burgdorferiBB0723 (a putativecyaBhomolog) was shown to have adenylate cyclase activityin vitro; however, mutants with mutations in this gene were fully infectious in the tick-mouse infection cycle, indicating that its function is not required in this process. By transcriptome analysis, we demonstrated that theptsGgene may directly or indirectly modulate gene expression ofBorrelia burgdorferi. Overall, the PEP-PTS glucose transporter PtsG appears to play important roles in the pathogenesis ofB. burgdorferithat extend beyond its transport functions.

Abstract:
Enzyme I (EI) is the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-protein phosphotransferase at the entry point of the PEP-dependent sugar phosphotransferase system, which catalyzes carbohydrate uptake into bacterial cells. In the first step of this pathway EI phosphorylates the heat-stable phospho carrier protein at His-15 using PEP as a phosphoryl donor in a reaction that requires EI dimerization and autophosphorylation at His-190. The structure of the full-length protein from Staphylococcus carnosus at 2.5Å reveals an extensive interaction surface between two molecules in adjacent asymmetric units. Structural comparison with related domains indicates that this surface represents the biochemically relevant contact area of dimeric EI. Each monomer has an extended configuration with the phosphohistidine and heat-stable phospho carrier protein-binding domains clearly separated from the C-terminal dimerization and PEP-binding region. The large distance of more than 35Å between the active site His-190 and the PEP binding site suggests that large conformational changes must occur during the process of autophosphorylation, as has been proposed for the structurally related enzyme pyruvate phosphate dikinase. Our structure for the first time offers a framework to analyze a large amount of research in the context of the full-length model.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The transport of cellobiose in mixed ruminal bacteria harvested from a holstein cow fed an Italian ryegrass hay was determined in the presence of nojirimycin-1-sulfate, which almost inhibited cellobiase activity. The kinetic parameters of cellobiose uptake were 14 μM for the Km and 10 nmol/min/mg of protein for theV max. Extracellular and cell-associated cellobiases were detected in the rumen, with both showing higherV max values and lower affinities than those determined for cellobiose transport. The proportion of cellobiose that was directly transported before it was extracellularly degraded into glucose increased as the cellobiose concentration decreased, reaching more than 20% at the actually observed levels of cellobiose in the rumen, which were less than 0.02 mM. The inhibitor experiment showed that cellobiose was incorporated into the cells mainly by the phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system and partially by an ATP-dependent and proton-motive-force-independent active transport system. This finding was also supported by determinations of phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase-dependent NADH oxidation with cellobiose and the effects of artificial potentials on cellobiose transport. Cellobiose uptake was sensitive to a decrease in pH (especially below 6.0), and it was weakly but significantly inhibited in the presence of glucose.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PTS) is a highly conserved phosphotransfer cascade that participates in the transport and phosphorylation of selected carbohydrates and modulates many cellular functions in response to carbohydrate availability. It plays a role in the virulence of many bacterial pathogens. Components of the carbohydrate-specific PTS include the general cytoplasmic components enzyme I (EI) and histidine protein (HPr), the sugar-specific cytoplasmic components enzymes IIA (EIIA) and IIB (EIIB), and the sugar-specific membrane-associated multisubunit components enzymes IIC (EIIC) and IID (EIID). Many bacterial genomes also encode a parallel PTS pathway that includes the EI homolog EINtr, the HPr homolog NPr, and the EIIA homolog EIIANtr. This pathway is thought to be nitrogen specific because of the proximity of the genes encoding this pathway to the genes encoding the nitrogen-specific σ factor σ54. We previously reported that phosphorylation of HPr and FPr by EI represses Vibrio cholerae biofilm formation in minimal medium supplemented with glucose or pyruvate. Here we report two additional PTS-based biofilm regulatory pathways that are active in LB broth but not in minimal medium. These pathways involve the glucose-specific enzyme EIIA (EIIAGlc) and two nitrogen-specific EIIA homologs, EIIANtr1 and EIIANtr2. The presence of multiple, independent biofilm regulatory circuits in the PTS supports the hypothesis that the PTS and PTS-dependent substrates have a central role in sensing environments suitable for a surface-associated existence.

ABSTRACTWhole-genome sequencing and cell membrane studies of three clonalEnterococcus faeciumstrains with daptomycin MICs of 4, 32, and 192 μg/ml were performed, revealing nonsynonymous single nucleotide variants in eight open reading frames, including those predicted to encode a phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent, mannose-specific phosphotransferase system, cardiolipin synthetase, and EzrA. Membrane studies revealed a higher net surface charge among the daptomycin-nonsusceptible isolates and increased septum formation in the isolate with a daptomycin MIC of 192 μg/ml.

Abstract:
SUMMARY We report analyses of 202 fully sequenced genomes for homologues of known protein constituents of the bacterial phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS). These included 174 bacterial, 19 archaeal, and 9 eukaryotic genomes. Homologues of PTS proteins were not identified in archaea or eukaryotes, showing that the horizontal transfer of genes encoding PTS proteins has not occurred between the three domains of life. Of the 174 bacterial genomes (136 bacterial species) analyzed, 30 diverse species have no PTS homologues, and 29 species have cytoplasmic PTS phosphoryl transfer protein homologues but lack recognizable PTS permeases. These soluble homologues presumably function in regulation. The remaining 77 species possess all PTS proteins required for the transport and phosphorylation of at least one sugar via the PTS. Up to 3.2% of the genes in a bacterium encode PTS proteins. These homologues were analyzed for family association, range of protein types, domain organization, and organismal distribution. Different strains of a single bacterial species often possess strikingly different complements of PTS proteins. Types of PTS protein domain fusions were analyzed, showing that certain types of domain fusions are common, while others are rare or prohibited. Select PTS proteins were analyzed from different phylogenetic standpoints, showing that PTS protein phylogeny often differs from organismal phylogeny. The results document the frequent gain and loss of PTS protein-encoding genes and suggest that the lateral transfer of these genes within the bacterial domain has played an important role in bacterial evolution. Our studies provide insight into the development of complex multicomponent enzyme systems and lead to predictions regarding the types of protein-protein interactions that promote efficient PTS-mediated phosphoryl transfer.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The effects of substrate analogs and energy inhibitors on glucose uptake and phosphorylation by Clostridium beijerinckii provide evidence for the operation of two uptake systems: a previously characterized phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS) and a non-PTS system probably energized by the transmembrane proton gradient. In both wild-type C. beijerinckii NCIMB 8052 and the butanol-hyperproducing mutant BA101, PTS activity declined at the end of exponential growth, while glucokinase activity increased in the later stages of fermentation. The non-PTS uptake system, together with enhanced glucokinase activity, may provide an explanation for the ability of the mutant to utilize glucose more effectively during fermentation despite the fact that it is partially defective in PTS activity.

Abstract:
The glucose transport system of the extremely thermophilic anaerobic bacterium Thermotoga neapolitana was studied with the nonmetabolizable glucose analog 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DOG). T. neapolitana accumulated 2-DOG against a concentration gradient in an intracellular free sugar pool that was exchangeable with external source of energy, such as pyruvate, and was inhibited by arsenate and gramicidin D. There was no phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphorylation of glucose, 2-DOG, or fructose by cell extracts or toluene-treated cells, indicating the absence of a phosphoenolpyruvate:sugar phosphotransferase system. These data indicate that D-glucose is taken up by T. neapolitana via an active transport system that is energized by an ion gradient generated by ATP, derived from substrate-level phosphorylation.

Abstract:
The phosphoenolpyruvate : carbohydrate phosphotransferase system (PTS) catalyses carbohydrate transport by coupling it to phosphorylation. Previously, we reported a Corynebacterium glutamicum R β-glucoside PTS encoded by bglF. Here we report that C. glutamicum R contains an additional β-glucoside PTS gene, bglF2, organized in a cluster with a putative phospho-β-glucosidase gene, bglA2, and a putative antiterminator, bglG2. While single gene disruption strains of either bglF or bglF2 were able to utilize salicin or arbutin as sole carbon sources, a double disruption strain exhibited defects in utilization of both carbon sources. Expression of both bglF and bglF2 was induced in the presence of either salicin or arbutin, although disruption of bglG2 affected only bglF2 expression. Moreover, in the presence of either salicin or arbutin, glucose completely repressed the expression of bglF but only slightly repressed that of bglF2. We conclude that BglF and BglF2 have a redundant role in β-glucoside transport even though the catabolite repression control of their encoding genes is different. We also show that expression of both bglF and bglF2 requires the general PTS.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTOenococcus oeni, the lactic acid bacterium primarily responsible for malolactic fermentation in wine, is able to grow on a large variety of carbohydrates, but the pathways by which substrates are transported and phosphorylated in this species have been poorly studied. We show that the genes encoding the general phosphotransferase proteins, enzyme I (EI) and histidine protein (HPr), as well as 21 permease genes (3 isolated ones and 18 clustered into 6 distinct loci), are highly conserved among the strains studied and may form part of theO. oenicore genome. Additional permease genes differentiate the strains and may have been acquired or lost by horizontal gene transfer events. The coreptsgenes are expressed, and permease gene expression is modulated by the nature of the bacterial growth substrate. DecryptifiedO. oenicells are able to phosphorylate glucose, cellobiose, trehalose, and mannose at the expense of phosphoenolpyruvate. These substrates are present at low concentrations in wine at the end of alcoholic fermentation. The phosphotransferase system (PTS) may contribute to the perfect adaptation ofO. oenito its singular ecological niche.
