MtnK, methylthioribose kinase, is a starvation-induced protein in Bacillus subtilis
BACKGROUND: Methylthioadenosine, the main by-product of spermidine synthesis, is degraded in Bacillus subtilis as adenine and methylthioribose. The latter is an excellent sulfur source and the precursor of quorum-sensing signalling molecules. Nothing was known about methylthioribose recycling in thi...
