Biophysical and biochemical studies support TP0094 as a phosphotransacetylase in an acetogenic energy-conservation pathway in Treponema pallidum.
The mechanisms of energy generation and carbon-source utilization in the syphilis spirochete Treponema pallidum have remained enigmatic despite complete genomic sequence information. Whereas the bacterium harbors enzymes for glycolysis, the apparatus for more efficient use of glucose catabolites, na...
