rhs gene family of Escherichia coli K-12.
Two additional members of a novel Escherichia coli gene family, the rhs genes, have been cloned and characterized. The structures of these loci, rhsC and rhsD, have been compared with those of rhsA and rhsB. All four loci contain a homologous 3.7-kilobase-pair core. Sequence comparison of the first 300 nucleotides of the cores showed that rhsA, rhsB, and rhsC are closely related, with only 1 to...
متن کاملChromosome position effects on gene expression in Escherichia coli K-12
In eukaryotes, the location of a gene on the chromosome is known to affect its expression, but such position effects are poorly understood in bacteria. Here, using Escherichia coli K-12, we demonstrate that expression of a reporter gene cassette, comprised of the model E. coli lac promoter driving expression of gfp, varies by ∼300-fold depending on its precise position on the chromosome. At som...
متن کاملMutations That Stimulate flhDC Expression in Escherichia coli K-12.
UNLABELLED Motility is a beneficial attribute that enables cells to access and explore new environments and to escape detrimental ones. The organelle of motility in Escherichia coli is the flagellum, and its production is initiated by the activating transcription factors FlhD and FlhC. The expression of these factors by the flhDC operon is highly regulated and influenced by environmental condit...
متن کاملGenome-wide expression profiling in Escherichia coli K-12.
We have established high resolution methods for global monitoring of gene expression in Escherichia coli. Hybridization of radiolabeled cDNA to spot blots on nylon membranes was compared to hybridization of fluorescently-labeled cDNA to glass microarrays for efficiency and reproducibility. A complete set of PCR primers was created for all 4290 annotated open reading frames (ORFs) from the compl...
متن کاملImpact of Various Environmental and Growth Conditions on Antigen 43 Gene Expression and Biofilm Formation by Uropathogenic Echserchia coli
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives: Biofilm is a population of bacteria growing on a surface and enclosed in an exopolysaccharides matrix, which increases resistance to antimicrobial agents and immune response. Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are biofilm-forming bacteria and the most common cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs). This study ev...
