LurR is a regulator of the central lactate oxidation pathway in sulfate-reducing Desulfovibrio species.

PLoS ONE, 2019
The central carbon/lactate utilization pathway in the model sulfate-reducing bacterium, Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, is encoded by the highly conserved operon DVU3025-3033.

Characterization and Transcriptional Regulation of the 2-Ketogluconate Utilization Operon in Pseudomonas plecoglossicida

Microorganisms
Pseudomonas plecoglossicida JUIM01 is an industrial 2-keto-d-gluconate (2KGA)-producing strain. However, its regulation mechanism of 2KGA metabolism remains to be clarified. Among other reported Pseudomonas species, the 2-ketogluconate utilization operon

Expression of the entire polyhydroxybutyrate operon of Ralstonia eutropha in plants

Journal of Biological Engineering, 2017
Background Previously we demonstrated that an entire bacterial operon (the PRN operon) is expressible in plants when driven by the Tomato -yellow-leaf-curl-virus (TYLCV) -derived universal vector IL-60.

FucR Functions as a Transcriptional Regulator for L-Fucose Utilization in Campylobacter jejuni

Microorganisms
Campylobacter jejuni is an enteric pathogen and a major cause of foodborne illness worldwide. It has been shown that C. jejuni primarily utilizes amino acids as its preferred energy source, but its ability to utilize L-fucose can grant a competitive ...

Pensar con y a partir del operón

Revista Colombiana de Filosofía de la Ciencia
Este artículo sostiene que el operón lac propuesto por François Jacob y Jacques Monod en 1961 superó los campos de la cinética enzimática y la genética bacteriana en los que se estableció originalmente porque impulsó una metodología de análisis, el ...
