RESUMO
Carbon catabolite repression in Bacillus megaterium is mediated by the transcriptional regulator CcpA. A chromosomal deletion of ccpA eliminates catabolite repression and reduces the growth rate on glucose. We describe four single-amino-acid mutations in CcpA which separate the growth effect from catabolite repression, suggesting distinct regulatory pathways for these phenotypes.
