Description (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) EIIBgl
Comments (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) BglF, the aromatic β-glucoside (Arbutin/Salicin) PTS permease, belongs to the functional superfamily of the phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP)-dependent, sugar transporting phosphotransferase system (PTS). The PTS transports and simultaneously phosphorylates its sugar substrates in a process called group translocation. BglF takes up exogenous β-glucosides, releasing the phosphate esters into the cell cytoplasm in preparation for hydrolysis and metabolism, primarily via glycolysis [3][4][5][6]. The operon is subject to positive control by cyclic AMP and the cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP).
