The genes for phosphofructokinase and pyruvate kinase of Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus constitute an operon

In Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, the pyk gene coding for pyruvate kinase and the pfk gene coding for phosphofructokinase formed a bicistronic operon transcribed into a 2.9-kb RNA. The nucleotide sequence of the pyk gene indicated that the encoded protein possessed an extra C-terminal domain with a potential phosphoenolpyruvate- dependent autophosphorylation site.
