Functional expression of the Enterococcus hirae NaH-antiporter in Escherichia coli.
We recently described the cloning of napA, the putative structural gene for the NaH-antiporter of Enterococcus hirae (Waser, M., Bienz-Hess, D., Davies, K., and Solioz, M. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 5396-5400). To analyze the gene product of napA, we expressed it in Escherichia coli. When placed under the control of a T7 promoter, napA could be transcribed and labeled specifically with [35S]met...
متن کاملCloning and disruption of a putative NaH-antiporter gene of Enterococcus hirae.
When growing in a sodium-rich environment, wild-type Enterococcus hirae extrudes sodium by two mechanisms, ATP-driven sodium extrusion, and NaH-antiport. Mutant 7683 is unable to grow on sodium-rich media. This is due to two mutations, one inactivating ATP-driven sodium transport and a second rendering NaH-antiport inoperative. 7683 was transformed by electroporation with a gene bank, derived f...
متن کاملPURIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF THE CLONED HUMAN GM-CSF GENE EXPRESSED IN ESCHERICHIA COLI
The human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulation factor (hGM-CSF) gene was cloned in the pET 23a( +) expression vector under the control of strong bacteriophage T7 transcription and translation signals. The hGM-CSF gene was transferred into E. coli strainBL21 (DE3)pLysS andIPTG was used for induction of GM-CSF gene. Production of the target protein was obtained as revealed by ELISA and ...
متن کاملCloning, sequencing, and expression of the nhaB gene, encoding a Na+/H+ antiporter in Escherichia coli.
In Escherichia coli, expulsion of sodium ions is driven by proton flux via at least two distinct Na+/H+ antiporters, NhaA and NhaB. When the nhaA gene is deleted from the chromosome, the cell becomes sensitive to high salinity and alkaline pH (Padan, E., Maisler, N., Taglicht, D., Karpel, R., and Schuldiner, S. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 20297-20302). In the current work we cloned the nhaB gene...
متن کاملCloning of Clostridium perfringens iota toxin gene in Escherichia coli
Iota toxin is produced by Clostridium perfringens type E. This toxin causes antibiotic-associated enterotoxemia in lambs and calves. Iota toxin is a binary toxin that has two components including Ia (the enzyme component) and Ib (the binding component). Ib binds to the surface receptor of target cells and translocate Ia into the cytosol of cells. The aim of this study was to clone toxigenic epi...
