Extragenic suppression of motA missense mutations of Escherichia coli.
The MotA and MotB proteins are thought to comprise elements of the stator component of the flagellar motor of Escherichia coli. In an effort to understand interactions among proteins within the motor, we attempted to identify extragenic suppressors of 31 dominant, plasmid-borne alleles of motA. Strains containing these mutations were either nonmotile or had severely impaired motility. Four of t...
متن کاملSuppression of a missense mutation in the L-ribulokinase gene of Escherichia coli.
HE L-arabinose gene-enzyme complex, except for the unlinked L-arabinose Tpermease gene, araE, is shown in Figure 1. araB and araA are the structural genes for the L-ribulokinase and L-arabinose isomerase, respectively; while araD is probably the structural gene for ~-ribulose-5-phosphate-4-epimerase ( ENGLESBERG 1961 ; ENGLESBERG et al. 1962; LEE and ENGLESBERG 1962,1963). The ma€ gene is a reg...
متن کاملStudy of Mutations in the DNA gyrase gyrA Gene of Escherichia coli
Quinolones are a large and widely consumed class of synthetic drugs. Expanded-spectrum quinolones, like ciprofloxacin are highly effective against Gram-negative bacteria, especially Escherichia coli. In E. coli the major target for quinolones is DNA gyrase. This enzyme is composed of two subunits, GyrA and GyrB encoding by gyrA and gyrB, respectively. Mutations in either of these genes cause qu...

متن کاملSpontaneous missense mutations in the rplX gene for ribosomal protein L24 from Escherichia coli.
Temperature-resistant pseudorevertants of the temperature-sensitive Escherichia coli mutant KNS19, harboring a mutation in rplX, the gene for ribosomal protein L24, were isolated, cloned, and sequenced. The codon GAC for the amino acid Asp in the temperature-sensitive mutant corresponding to position 84 in the protein chain mutated either back to the wild type (Gly) or to codons for the amino a...
