Lactose metabolism

Description
Lactose enters the E. coli cell from the growth medium with the aid of permease. Most of the lactose has its galactoside linkage cleaved by-galactosidase to yield galactose and glucose. -galactosidase converts some lactose to its isomeric form, allolactose that acts as the inducer. Excess allolactose is cleaved by -galactosidaseLactose enters the E. coli cell from the growth medium with the aid of permease.
