Identification of the major PEP-phosphotransferase systems (PTS) for glucose, mannose and cellobiose of L. monocytogenes

ABSTRACT: Identification of the major PEP-phosphotransferase systems (PTS) for glucose, mannose and cellobiose of Listeria monocytogenes, and their significance for extra- and intracellular growth. Transcriptional profile of prfA, the dependent genes and the PTS genes after growth in MM (minimal medium (Premaratne et al. 2001)) (supplemented with 10 mM Glucose). Listeria monocytogenes EGD-e possesses 86 pts genes encoding 29 complete and several incomplete PEP-dependent phosphotransferase systems (PTS) for the transport of carbohydrates and sugar alcohols. By a systematic deletion analysis we identified the major PTS involved in glucose, mannose and cellobiose transport, when L. monocytogenes grows in a defined minimal medium in the presence of either of these carbohydrates. Under these conditions
