Mannitol-1-Phosphate Dehydrogenase (MtlD) Is Required for Mannitol and Glucitol Assimilation in Bacillus subtilis : Possible Cooperation of mtl and gut Operons

Abstract: We found that mannitol-1-phosphate dehydrogenase (MtlD), a component of the mannitol-specific phosphotransferase system, is required for glucitol assimilation in addition to GutR, GutB, and GutP in Bacillus subtilis. Northern hybridization of total RNA and microarray studies of RNA from cells cultured on glucose, mannitol, and glucitol indicated that mannitol as the sole carbon source induced hyperexpression of the mtl operon, whereas glucitol induced both mtl and gut operons. The B. subtilis mtl operon consis… Show more

“…This sugar was presumably taken up by the cells as F-6-P (Fig. 1), similar to what occurs in other Bacillus species (36). Both strains grew well on this sugar, suggesting that pBM19 genes are not critical for mannitol consumption in B. methanolicus.…”

“…150) B. subtilis MtlR is the regulator of the mtlAFD operon encoding the PTS for mannitol, 151) and it specifically interacts with DNA regions containing the mtl promoter. 152) Disruption of the mtlR gene prevented the utilization of mannitol, indicating that MtlR functions as a transcription activator of the mtlAFD operon. However, the role of PTSmediated regulation has not been studied yet.…”

“…Beside these three domains, the Lmo0501 protein also possesses PTS enzyme II motifs that resemble the EIIB bgl-like and EIIA fructose/mannitol subunits. While B. subtilis and B. stearothermophilus MtlRs are known transcription regulators activating the expression of mannitol assimilation and catabolism genes, the Lmo0501 functions in L. monocytogenes are presently unknown (Henstra et al, 2000;Henstra et al, 1999;Watanabe et al, 2003).…”

“…stearothermophilus (Henstra et al, 2000;Henstra et al, 1999;Watanabe et al, 2003). In addition to conserved DNA binding winged helix -turn-helix (HTH), MtlRs possess two PTS regulation domains, PRDI and PRDII, that are phosphorylation regulated by PTS components (van Tilbeurgh and Declerck, 2001).…”
