Characterization of the gcv control region from Escherichia coli.
We constructed a set of deletions upstream of the gcv promoter and analyzed the effects of the deletions on expression of a gcvT-lacZ gene fusion. A deletion that ends at position -313 upstream of the transcription initiation site (+1) results in reduced levels of gcvT-lacZ expression, but the fusion is still inducible by glycine and repressible by purines. A deletion that ends at position -169...
متن کاملThe characterization of dipeptidases from Escherichia coli.
The supernatant extracts from disrupted Escherichia coli had only low hydrolytic activity towards diglycine, divaline and prolylglycine, but latent peptidases were activated by Co2+ or Mn2+. Cd2+ caused no increase in peptidase activity while Cd2+, Zn2+ and Cu2+ antagonized the effects of Co2+ and Mn2+. Measurements of optimum cation concentration, of pH optimum and of effects of various buffer...
متن کاملCharacterization of β-Lactamases from Urinary Isolates of Escherichia coli in Tehran
Knowledge of antimicrobial resistance patterns in E. coli, the predominant pathogen associated with urinary tract infections (UTI) is important as a guide in selecting empirical antimicrobial therapy. Methods: To describe the antimicrobial susceptibility of E. coli associated with UTI in a major university hospital in Tehran (Iran), seventy-six clinical isolates of E. coli were studied for susc...
متن کاملCharacterization of molybdenum cofactor from Escherichia coli.
Molybdenum cofactor activity was found in the soluble fraction of cell-free extracts of Escherichia coli grown aerobically in media supplemented with molybdate. Cofactor was detected by its ability to complement the nitrate reductase-deficient mutant of Neurospora crossa, nit-1, resulting in the vitro formation of nitrate reductase activity. Acid treatment of E. coli extracts was not required f...
متن کاملKinetic characterization of dUTPase from Escherichia coli.
The enzyme dUTPase catalyzes the hydrolysis of dUTP to dUMP and pyrophosphate, thereby preventing a deleterious incorporation of uracil into DNA. The best known dUTPase is that from Escherichia coli, which, like the human enzyme, consists of three identical subunits. In the present work, the catalytic properties of the E. coli dUTPase were investigated in the pH range 5-11. The enzyme was found...
