The phosphoenolpyruvate phosphotransferase system (PTS) component EIIIGlc is responsible for transport and phosphorylation of glucose via EIIGlc. It also regulates the catabolism of other carbon sources, such as lactose and maltose, by modulating both the intracellular concentrations of the corresponding inducers and of cAMP. Mutational analysis of EIIIGlc was performed in order to identify crucial residues mediating the interactions between EIIIGlc and its target proteins. Such mutations were isolated by in vitro hydroxylamine mutagenesis of the cloned EIIIGlc gene, crr. Five mutated EIIIGlc impaired in the function of inducer exclusion were obtained. However, these mutations did not abolish the function of EIIIGlc in the transport and phosphorylation of glucose, nor in activation of adenylate cyclase. A single amino acid change was found for each mutation, which is located in a restricted area of the polypeptide chain: Gly47-->Ser47 for the HA2 and HA5 mutations, Ala76-->Thr76 for HA4 mutation and Ser78-->Phe78 for HA3 mutation, indicative of quaternary interactions between the corresponding region of EIIIGlc and its target protein(s).
