Differential Requirements of Two recA Mutants for Constitutive SOS Expression in Escherichia coli K-12
BACKGROUND Repairing DNA damage begins with its detection and is often followed by elicitation of a cellular response. In E. coli, RecA polymerizes on ssDNA produced after DNA damage and induces the SOS Response. The RecA-DNA filament is an allosteric effector of LexA auto-proteolysis. LexA is the repressor of the SOS Response. Not all RecA-DNA filaments, however, lead to an SOS Response. Certa...
متن کاملPhenylalanine biosynthesis in Escherichia coli K-12: mutants derepressed for chorismate mutase P-prephenate dehydratase.
Mutants were isolated which are derepressed for the synthesis of chorismate mutase P-prephenate dehydratase. No other enzymes involved in the synthesis of phenylalanine are derepressed in these strains. These mutants are able to grow in concentrations of o- and p-fluorophenylalanine that inhibit the growth of AB3259, the strain from which they were derived. They also excrete phenylalanine. Gene...
متن کاملPhosphoglucomutase mutants of Escherichia coli K-12.
Bacteria with strongly depressed phosphoglucomutase (EC 2.7.5.1) activity are found among the mutants of Escherichia coli which, when grown on maltose, accumulate sufficient amylose to be detectable by iodine staining. These pgm mutants grow poorly on galactose but also accumulate amylose on this carbon source. Growth on lactose does not produce high amylose but, instead, results in the inducti...
متن کاملOperator-constitutive mutants in the threonine operon of Escherichia coli K-12.
Three Escherichia coli K-12 mutant strains resistant to DL-alpha-amino-beta-hydroxyvaleric acid were isolated in which the expression of the thr operon is constitutive. The localization and dominance properties of the mutations involved, called thrO, are those of operator mutations. The gene sequence is OABC as suggested by earlier studies.
متن کاملRegulation of argA operon expression in Escherichia coli K-12: cell-free synthesis of beta-galactosidase under argA control.
Regulation of argA operon expression in Escherichia coli K-12 was studied in a cell-free, deoxyribonucleic acid-dependent, enzyme-synthesizing system. lambdaAZ-7 deoxyribonucleic acid, which carries a fusion of the lacZ structural gene to the argA operon so that beta-galactosidase synthesis is under argA regulation, was used as the template. To eliminate extraneous readthrough from lambda promo...
