Gene
Coordinates
467,130  469,214
The protein
Catalyzed reaction/ biological activity
binding to the promoter region of the mtlA-mtlF-mtlD operon and activation of expression
Protein family
N-terminal DNA-binding domains, two PTS-regulation domains (PRD1 aa 195-300 and PRD2 aa 305-410), EIIB (Gat)-like domain, EIIA (Mtl)-like domain
PTS EIIB domain type-2 (aa 413-502) (according to UniProt)
PTS EIIA domain type-2 (aa 536-683) (according to UniProt)
Structure
Modification
phosphorylated on His-342 and/or His-399 by PtsH PubMed
phosphorylation on His-599 by MtlA PubMed
phosphorylation on Cys-419 by MtlF PubMed
Effectors of protein activity
activity is stimulated by PtsH-dependent phosphorylation in PRD2 (mechnism of carbon catabolite repression) PubMed
activity is inhibited by MtlF-dependent phosphorylation in the EIIB(Gat)-like domain on Cys-419 (this prevents activity in the absence of mannitol and allows induction in presence of mannitol) PubMed
upon interaction with non-phosphorylated MtlA, the active MtlR localizes to the membrane PubMed
