Protein
Glycerol uptake operon antiterminator regulatory protein
Organism
Bacillus subtilis (strain 168)
Function
Regulates expression of the glpD operon. In the presence of glycerol 3-phosphate (G3P) causes antitermination of transcription of glpD at the inverted repeat of the leader region to enhance its transcription. Binds and stabilizes glpD leader mRNA. May also regulate expression of the glpFK operon.
