A Small-Molecule Inducible Synthetic Circuit for Control of the SOS Gene Network without DNA Damage

The bacterial SOS stress-response pathway is a pro-mutagenic DNA repair system that mediates bacterial survival and adaptation to genotoxic stressors, including antibiotics and UV light. The SOS pathway is composed of a network of genes under the control of the transcriptional repressor, LexA. Activation of the pathway involves linked but distinct events: an initial DNA damage event leads to ac...

Radiation-induced oxidative damage to the DNA-binding domain of the lactose repressor.

Understanding the cellular effects of radiation-induced oxidation requires the unravelling of key molecular events, particularly damage to proteins with important cellular functions. The Escherichia coli lactose operon is a classical model of gene regulation systems. Its functional mechanism involves the specific binding of a protein, the repressor, to a specific DNA sequence, the operator. We ...

Non-equilibrium thermodynamics of gene expression and transcriptional regulation

In recent times whole-genome gene expression analysis has turned out to be a highly important tool to study the coordinated function of a very large number of genes within their corresponding cellular environment, especially in relation to phenotypic diversity and disease. A wide variety of methods of quantitative analysis have been developed to cope with high throughput data sets generated by ...

The Bradyrhizobium japonicum Irr protein is a transcriptional repressor with high-affinity DNA-binding activity.

The Irr protein is a global regulator of iron homeostasis in Bradyrhizobium japonicum, and a subset of genes within the Irr regulon are negatively controlled under iron limitation. However, repressor function, high-affinity DNA binding in vitro, or promoter occupancy in vivo of Irr for a negatively regulated gene has not been demonstrated. Here, we show that the blr7895 and bll6680 genes are ne...

The Influence of Repressor DNA Binding Site Architecture on Transcriptional Control

UNLABELLED How the architecture of DNA binding sites dictates the extent of repression of promoters is not well understood. Here, we addressed the importance of the number and information content of the three direct repeats (DRs) in the binding and repression of the icdA promoter by the phosphorylated form of the global Escherichia coli repressor ArcA (ArcA-P). We show that decreasing the infor...
