Description (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) EIIFru
Comments (originally from EcoCyc[1][2]) FruAB, the fructose 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. FruAB takes up exogenous fructose, releasing the 1-phosphate ester into the cell cytoplasm in preparation for metabolism, primarily via glycolysis [3][4][5][6][7][8]. The fru operon is also subject to positive control by the cyclic AMP-cyclic AMP receptor protein (CRP) complex. The fru operon contains the fruB gene, the fruK gene (encoding fructose-1-P kinase) and the fruA gene in that order. The fruR gene does not map near the fru operon. FruK is a homologue of phosphofructokinase.
