Anatomy of Escherichia coli σ70 promoters
Information theory was used to build a promoter model that accounts for the -10, the -35 and the uncertainty of the gap between them on a common scale. Helical face assignment indicated that base -7, rather than -11, of the -10 may be flipping to initiate transcription. We found that the sequence conservation of sigma70 binding sites is 6.5 +/- 0.1 bits. Some promoters lack a -35 region, but ha...

متن کاملThiol-sensitive promoters of Escherichia coli.
Mu dX(lac) insertion mutants of Escherichia coli CSH50 in which the expression of the lacZ gene was sensitive to the presence of exogenous 1-thioglycerol or dithiothreitol were isolated. Both stimulatory and inhibitory mutants were found. The existence of several thiol-sensitive promoters suggests that exogenous thiols may provoke global stress responses in E. coli.
متن کاملEukaryotic promoters drive gene expression in Escherichia coli.
Eight eukaryotic promoters have been tested for their activity in vivo in Escherichia coli. The rat beta-actin, rat amylase, rat chymotrypsin B, mouse metallothionein I, rat insulin I, human insulin, Rous sarcoma virus long terminal repeat (RSV LTR) and hepatitis B viral precore promoter activities were measured by using the bacterial chloramphenicol acetyltransferase coding sequences as the re...
متن کاملStrength and Regulation of Seven rRNA Promoters in Escherichia coli
The model prokaryote Escherichia coli contains seven copies of the rRNA operon in the genome. The presence of multiple rRNA operons is an advantage for increasing the level of ribosome, the key apparatus of translation, in response to environmental conditions. The complete sequence of E. coli genome, however, indicated the micro heterogeneity between seven rRNA operons, raising the possibility ...
