Cellobiose-Mediated Gene Expression in Streptococcus pneumoniae: A Repressor Function of the Novel GntR-Type Regulator BguR
The human pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae has the ability to use the carbon- and energy source cellobiose due to the presence of a cellobiose-utilizing gene cluster (cel locus) in its genome. This system is regulated by the cellobiose-dependent transcriptional activator CelR, which has been previo...
