Po-independent termination if transcription of catabolite operons in Eschericha coli and Bacillus subtilis

摘要

The review discusses the Po-independent antitermination in E. coli and B. subtilis. The functional role of antiterminators Bg1G, SacY, SacT, Bg1G, LicT, and GicT is described. Special attention is paid to the role of antiterminators in connection with the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system involved in the carbohydrate transport in bacteria.
