Cells need safety valves

In Escherichia coli, the role of lacA,
the third gene of the lactose operon, has remained an enigma. I suggest
that its role is the consequence of the need for cells to have safety valves
that protect them from the osmotic effect created by their permeases. Safety
valves allow them to cope with the buildup of osmotic pressure under accidental
transient conditions. Multidrug resistance (MDR) efflux, thus named because
of our anthropocentrism, is ubiquitous. Yet, the formation of simple leaks
would result in futile influx/efflux cycles. Versatile modification enzymes
with low sensitivity solve the problem if the modified metabolite is the
one exported by MDR permeases. This may account for the pervasive presence
of acetyltransferases, such as LacA, associated to acetyl-metabolite exporters.
This scenario of constraints imposed by efficient influx of metabolites
provides us with a model that should be followed when constructing synthetic
cells
