Cyclic 3′:5′-Adenosine Monosphate in Escherichia coli during Transient and Catabolite Repression

Peter K Wayne 1,2, O M Rosen 1,2
PMCID: PMC388244  PMID: 4364540

Abstract

Cyclic AMP concentrations were low for an adenylate cyclase-deficient mutant (cya-) and abnormally high for a catabolite receptor protein-deficient mutant (crp-). A fall in cellular cAMP concentration was always found when cells were subjected to transient repression. No consistent correlations were observed between catabolite repression and cellular cAMP levels.
