Characterization of the Escherichia coli K-12 ydhYVWXUT operon: regulation by FNR, NarL and NarP.
In Escherichia coli K-12 the expression of many genes is controlled by the oxygen-responsive transcription factor FNR and the nitrate- and nitrite-responsive two-component systems NarXL and NarPQ. Here, the ydhY gene is shown to be the first gene of a six-gene operon (ydhYVWXUT) that encodes proteins predicted to be components of an oxidoreductase. Mapping the ydhY-T transcript start and site-d...
متن کاملPreferential site-specific hemimethylation of GATC sites in pBR322 DNA by Dam methyltransferase from Escherichia coli.
The methylation pattern of the 22 GATC sites of pBR322 (dam-) by Dam methyltransferase from Escherichia coli has been studied. Preferential hemimethylation took place at positions 3042 and 349. It was found that these preferential methylations were the same in supercoiled circular and linear DNAs. The flanking regions of these preferentially methylated sites contain three G.C pairs on one side ...
متن کاملLocation of sequences in the nar promoter of Escherichia coli required for regulation by Fnr and NarL.
Nitrate reductase, encoded by the nar operon in Escherichia coli, is produced only under anaerobic conditions and induced to its maximum level in the presence of nitrate. The anaerobic expression of the nar operon depends on the fnr gene product (Fnr), and the stimulation of anaerobic expression by nitrate requires the narL gene product (NarL). Distinct regulatory domains within the nar promote...
متن کاملSite-Specific Cleavage of Ribosomal RNA in Escherichia coli-Based Cell-Free Protein Synthesis Systems
Cell-free protein synthesis, which mimics the biological protein production system, allows rapid expression of proteins without the need to maintain a viable cell. Nevertheless, cell-free protein expression relies on active in vivo translation machinery including ribosomes and translation factors. Here, we examined the integrity of the protein synthesis machinery, namely the functionality of ri...
