A bacterial basic region leucine zipper histidine kinase regulating toluene degradation.
The two-component signal transduction pathways in bacteria use a histidine-aspartate phosphorelay circuit to mediate cellular changes in response to environmental stimuli. Here we describe a novel two-component todST system, which activates expression of the toluene degradation (tod) pathway in Pseudomonas putida F1. The todS gene is predicted to encode a sensory hybrid kinase with two unique p...
متن کاملA leucine zipper-like motif and a basic region-leucine zipper-like element in rat ribosomal protein L13a. Identification of the tum- transplantation antigen P198.
The amino acid sequence of the rat 60 S ribosomal subunit protein L13a was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in two recombinant cDNAs. Mature ribosomal protein L13a has 202 amino acids (the NH2-terminal methionine is removed after translation of the mRNA) and a M(r) of 23,330. Hybridization of the L13a cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 9-11 copies of the L13a gene. T...
متن کاملSaccharomyces cerevisiae basic region-leucine zipper protein regulatory networks converge at the ATR1 structural gene.
Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells express a family of transcription factors belonging to the basic region-leucine zipper family. Two of these proteins, yAP-1 and Gcn4p, are known to be involved in oxidative stress tolerance and general control of amino acid biosynthesis, respectively. Strains lacking the YAP1 or GCN4 structural gene have very different phenotypes, which have been taken as evidence...
متن کاملCommentary Do basic region - leucine zipper proteins bend their DNA targets . . . does it matter ? Paul
Protein-induced bending of DNA has been described for numerous members of the large family of "basic regionleucine zipper" (bZIP) transcriptional modulators (1-4). However, for this class of proteins, there exists some uncertainty as to how much (or even whether) the bound target DNA is bent. This issue has been most sharply focused for the bZIP protein heterodimer, Fos-Jun, with two recent art...
متن کاملThe importance of being flexible: the case of basic region leucine zipper transcriptional regulators.
Large volumes of protein sequence and structure data acquired by proteomic studies led to the development of computational bioinformatic techniques that made possible the functional annotation and structural characterization of proteins based on their primary structure. It has become evident from genome-wide analyses that many proteins in eukaryotic cells are either completely disordered or con...
