The gene

Basic information

  • Coordinates:

Phenotypes of a mutant

essential

Database entries

  • DBTBS entry: [1]
  • SubtiList entry:[2]

Additional information

The protein

Basic information/ Evolution

  • Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity: glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, (NADH-dependent). Catalyzes the reaction from glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate to 1.3-bi-phosphoglycerate. This reaction is part of the glycolysis.
  • Protein family:
  • Paralogous protein(s): GapB

Extended information on the protein

  • Kinetic information: K(M) for NAD: 5.7 mM, K(cat) for NAD: 70/sec (determined for GapA from Geobacillus stearothermophilus) PubMed
  • Domains:
  • Modification: Phosphorylation (STY)
  • Cofactor(s):
  • Effectors of protein activity:
  • Localization: membrane and cytoplasm

Database entries

  • Structure:
    • 3CMC (from Geobacillus stearothermophilus)
    • 1NQO (from Geobacillus stearothermophilus, mutant with cys 149 replaced by ser, complex with NAD+ und D-Glyceraldehyde-3-Phosphate)

Additional information

GAP dehydrogenases from different sources (incl. Geobacillus stearothermophilus) were shown to cleave RNA (PubMed). Moreover, mutations in gapA from B. subtilis can suppress mutations in genes involved in DNA replication (PubMed).

Expression and regulation

The primary mRNAs of the operon are highly unstable. The primary mRNA is subject to processing at the very end of the cggR open reading frame. This results in stable mature gapA and gapA-pgk-tpiA-pgm-eno mRNAs. The processing event requires the Rny protein.

  • Sigma factor: SigA
  • Regulation: CggR represses the operon in the absence of glycolytic sugars
  • Regulatory mechanism: repression
  • Additional information: GapA is one of the most abundant proteins in the cell. In the presence of glucose, there are about 25,000 GapA molecules per cell (PubMed).

Biological materials

  • Mutant:
  • Expression vector: pGP90 (N-terminal Strep-tag, purification from B. subtilis), pGP704 (N-terminal His-tag) (available in Stülke lab)
  • lacZ fusion: pGP506 (in pAC7), pGP512 (in pAC6) (available in Stülke lab)
  • GFP fusion:
  • Antibody: available in Stülke lab

Labs working on this gene/protein
