Identification
Name:Phosphocarrier protein NPr
Synonyms:
  • Nitrogen-related HPr
Gene Name:ptsO
Enzyme Class:Not Available
Biological Properties
General Function:Carbohydrate transport and metabolism
Specific Function:Component of the phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent nitrogen- metabolic phosphotransferase system (nitrogen-metabolic PTS), that seems to be involved in regulating nitrogen metabolism. The phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) is transferred to the phosphoryl carrier protein NPr by enzyme I-Ntr. Phospho-NPr then transfers it to EIIA-Ntr. Could function in the transcriptional regulation of sigma-54 dependent operons in conjunction with the NPr (ptsO) and EIIA-Ntr (ptsN) proteins
