Abstract

•The role of FBP as effector of the Cra protein of soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida is unclear.•Biochemical, biophysical and genetic data show that Cra binds only F1P as metabolic agonist.•F1P is the only physiological effector of the Cra protein of P. putida in vivo.•This regulatory exaptation of Cra exemplifies how transcriptional factors can diversify in bacteria.
