Abstract：
:Escherichia coli K12 does not metabolize beta-glucosides such as arbutin and salicin because of lack of expression of the bglBSRC operon, which contains structural genes for transport (bglC) and hydrolysis (bglB) of phospho-beta-glucosides. Mutants carrying lesions in the cis-acting regulatory site bglR metabolize beta-glucosides as a consequence of expression of this cryptic operon (Prasad and Schaefler 1974). We isolated mutations promoting beta-glucoside metabolism that were unlinked to bglR; some of these mutations were shown to be amber. All of them were mapped at 27 min on the E. coli K12 linkage map and appeared to define a single gene, for which we propose the designation bglY. Utilization of beta-glucosides in bglY mutants appeared to be a consequence of expression of the bglBSRC operon, since bglB bglR and bglB bglY double mutants had the same phenotype. All bglY mutations analyzed were recessive to the wild-type bglY+ allele. Phospho-beta-glucosidase B and beta-glucoside transport activities are inducible in bglY mutants, as they are in bglR mutants. Metabolism of beta-glucosides in both bglR and bglY mutants required cyclic AMP. We propose that bglY encodes a protein acting as a repressor of the bglBSRC operon, active in both the presence and absence of beta-glucosides, whose recognition site would be within the bglR locus.
