  <description>Alpha-Lactose is the alpha anomoer of lactose.  It is a disaccharide that consists of galactose and glucose joined by an acetal oxygen bridge in the beta orientation  Lactose is a sugar substrate that can be readily used by E. coli.  The consumption of lactose by E. coli is controlled by the lac operon.  The operon includes  beta-galactosidase, lactose permease, and thiogalactoside transacetylase. The lactose permease, which sits in the cytoplasmic membrane, transports lactose into the cell. Beta-galactosidase, a cytoplasmic enzyme, subsequently cleaves lactose into glucose and galactose.</description>

      <name>Galactose metabolism</name>
      <description>Galactose can be synthesized through two pathways: melibiose degradation involving an alpha galactosidase and lactose degradation involving a beta galactosidase. Melibiose is first transported inside the cell through the melibiose:Li+/Na+/H+ symporter. Once inside the cell, melibiose is degraded through alpha galactosidase  into an alpha-D-galactose and a beta-D-glucose. The beta-D-glucose is phosphorylated by a glucokinase to produce a beta-D-glucose-6-phosphate which can spontaneously be turned into a alpha D glucose 6 phosphate. This alpha D-glucose-6-phosphate is metabolized into a glucose -1-phosphate through a phosphoglucomutase-1. The glucose -1-phosphate is transformed into a uridine diphosphate glucose through UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase. The product, uridine diphosphate glucose, can undergo a reversible reaction in which it can be turned into uridine diphosphategalactose through an UDP-glucose 4-epimerase.
Galactose can also be produced by lactose degradation involving a lactose permease to uptake lactose from the environment and a beta-galactosidase to turn lactose into Beta-D-galactose. 
Beta-D-galactose can also be uptaken from the environment through a galactose proton symporter.
Galactose is degraded through the following process:
Beta-D-galactose is introduced into the cytoplasm through a galactose proton symporter, or it can be synthesized from an alpha lactose that is introduced into the cytoplasm through a lactose permease. Alpha lactose interacts with water through a beta-galactosidase resulting in a beta-D-glucose and beta-D-galactose. Beta-D-galactose is isomerized into D-galactose. D-Galactose undergoes phosphorylation through a galactokinase, hence producing galactose 1 phosphate. On the other side of the pathway, a gluose-1-phosphate (product of the interaction of alpha-D-glucose 6-phosphate with a phosphoglucomutase resulting in a alpha-D-glucose-1-phosphate, an isomer of Glucose 1-phosphate, or an isomer of Beta-D-glucose 1-phosphate) interacts with UTP and a hydrogen ion in order to produce a uridine diphosphate glucose. This is followed by the interaction of galactose-1-phosphate with an established amount of uridine diphosphate glucose through a galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase, which in turn output a glucose-1-phosphate and a uridine diphosphate galactose. The glucose -1-phosphate is transformed into a uridine diphosphate glucose through UTP--glucose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase. The product, uridine diphosphate glucose, can undergo a reversible reaction in which it can be turned into uridine diphosphategalactose through an  UDP-glucose 4-epimerase, and so the cycle can keep going as long as more lactose or galactose is imported into the cell

      <description>When glucose is absent and lactose is present in the environment, cyclic AMP is present and binds to the catabolite activator protein (CAP) which in turn binds to the activator binding site and facilitates transcription.
Lactose binds to the repressor and prevents it from binding to the operator site. 
RNA polymerase can now bind to the promoter and carry out transcription of the lac operon.

      <description>When glucose is present, the concentration of cyclic AMP in the cell is low, hence cyclic AMP does not bind to the catabolite activator protein. This leads to the CAP-CAMP complex does not bind to the activator binding site. Therefore RNA polymerase can't bind efficiently to the promoter and transcription does not occur.</description>

      <description>The degradation of galactose, also known as Leloir pathway, requires 3 main enzymes once Beta-D-galactose has been converted to galactose through an Aldose-1-epimerase. These are:  galactokinase , galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase and UDP-glucose 4-epimerase. Beta-D-galactose can be uptaken from the environment through a galactose proton symporter.
