During a simultaneous induction of three enzymes which are subject to catabolite repression (beta-galactosidase, tryptophanase and amylomaltase, or beta-galactosidase, tryptophanase and D-serine deaminase) in a batch culture, the rates of synthesis of beta-galactosidase and tryptophanase decreases, while the rates of synthesis of amylomaltase and D-serine deaminase remain unaffected. The addition of cAMP brings about a considerable increase of the rate of synthesis of D-serine deaminase and a partial synthesis rate increase of beta-galactosidase whihle the synthesis rate of tryptophanase remains lowered and the synthesis rate of amylomaltase remains unaffected. In a continuous culture beta-galactosidase, tryptophanase and D-serine deaminase are synthesized simultaneously at a maximum rate without mutual influence. The addition of cAMP increases the rate of synthesis of all three enzymes.

Pleiotropic carbohydrate-positive pseudorevertants have been isolated from a specific class of rho-crp double mutants of Escherichia coli carrying both defective transcription termination protein, rho, and cyclic AMP receptor protein. The modulation of catabolite repression of beta-galactosidase, amylomaltase, and tryptophanase has been studied in the pseudorevertants. It has been found that these mutants exhibit catabolite repression. Because catabolite-sensitive operons can be expressed in the absence of functional cyclic AMP receptor protein, this would suggest on the one hand that the cyclic AMP-receptor protein complex is not the exclusive mediator of catabolite repression and on the other hand that rho might be involved in the regulation of catabolite-sensitive operons.
