Abstract:
Comparative computer-assisted analysis was used to study putative GlpR-regulons responsible for metabolism of glycerol and glycerol-3-phosphate in genomes of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-proteobacteria. New palindromic GlpR-binding signals were identified in gamma-proteobacteria; consensus sequences being TGTTCGATAACGAACA for Enterobacteriaceae, wTTTTCGTATACGAAAAw for Pseudomonadaceae, and AATGCTCGATCGAGCATT for Vibrionaceae. The signals in alpha- and beta-proteobacteria were also identified: they contained 3-4 direct TTTCGTT repeats separated by 3-4 nucleotide pairs.

What is Glycolysis?
Cells make energy by breaking down macromolecules. Cellular respiration is the biochemical process that converts "food energy" (from the chemical bonds of macromolecules) into chemical energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The first step of this tightly regulated and intricate process is glycolysis. The word glycolysis originates from the Latin glyco (sugar) and lysis (breakdown). Glycolysis serves two main intracellular functions: generating ATP and generating...
