The Bacillus subtilis ywjI (glpX) Gene Encodes a Class II Fructose-16-Bisphosphatase Functionally Equivalent to the Class III Fbp Enzyme

摘要

We present here experimental evidence that the Bacillus subtilis ywjI gene encodes a class II fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, functionally equivalent to the fbp-encoded class III enzyme, and constitutes with the upstream gene, murAB, an operon transcribed at the same level under glycolytic or gluconeogenic conditions.
