5.1.3.3 | evolution | the galM pseudogene has not been deleted during the evolution of Yersinia pestis to become a vector-transmitted systemic pathogen because its reactivation may be beneficial in certain environments. The galactose mutarotase (galM) gene of Yersinia pestis can be converted to a pseudogene by a single-base-pair deletion, overview | Yersinia pestis |
5.1.3.3 | metabolism | GalM function and regulation in the galactose network, overview | Yersinia pestis |
5.1.3.3 | physiological function | the two anomers of D-galactose are used for different purposes, alpha-D-galactose as a carbon source and beta-D-galactose for induction of UDP-galactose synthesis for biosynthetic glycosylation | Yersinia pestis |
