Interplay between CRP-cAMP and PII-Ntr systems forms novel regulatory network between carbon metabolism and nitrogen assimilation in Escherichia coli

In Escherichia coli, utilization of carbon sources is regulated by the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system (PTS), which modulates the intracellular levels of cAMP. The cAMP receptor protein (CRP) controls the transcription of many catabolic genes. The availability of nitrogen is...
