Stimulation of Galactokinase Synthesis in Escherichia coli by Adenosine 3′,5′-Cyclic Monophosphate

Mariano Tao 1, Manfred Schweiger 1
PMCID: PMC284979  PMID: 4314475

Abstract

Adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyAMP) stimulates the rate of synthesis of galactokinase in glycerol-grown Escherichia coli both when production of the enzyme is induced by d-fucose and when it is repressed by glucose in the presence of inducer. cyAMP also stimulates the synthesis of galactokinase in constitutive strains B78A (R−) and R10 (Oc), and overcomes the transient repression of galactokinase synthesis caused by glucose.
