Characterization of the gltF gene product of Escherichia coli

The glt operon of Escherichia coli comprises the structural genes for the glutamate synthase subunits ( gltB and gltD) and gltF, whose product was previously suggested to have regulatory functions. The A/T-rich region between gltD and gltF contains a weak promoter and a translation initiation site f...

description The glt operon of Escherichia coli comprises the structural genes for the glutamate synthase subunits ( gltB and gltD) and gltF, whose product was previously suggested to have regulatory functions. The A/T-rich region between gltD and gltF contains a weak promoter and a translation initiation site for gltF. The GltF protein is preceded by a signal peptide, which is cleaved off during export into the periplasmic space. A gltF::Km R insertion mutant was constructed and shown here to have no detectable phenotype with respect to amino acid utilization or ammonium transport. Thus, GltF is apparently not involved in regulation of nitrogen catabolism.
