Recognition of operator DNA by Tet repressor.
The recognition of operator DNA by Tet repressor was analyzed by fluorescence stopped flow measurements. The main part of the fluorescence change observed for the reaction of the repressor with operator DNA reflects a second-order binding reaction including the expected concentration dependence. Global fitting of transients measured at different concentrations reveal at least one intramolecular...
متن کاملUV-induced cross-linking of Tet repressor to DNA containing tet operator sequences and 8-azidoadenines.
The synthesis of 8-azido-2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-triphosphate is described. The photoreactive dATP analog was characterized by thin layer chromatography, proton resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy and UV spectroscopy. Its photolysis upon UV irradiation was studied. After incorporation of this dATP analog into DNA containing the tet operator sequence the investigation of the interactions ...
متن کاملTn10 tet operator mutations affecting Tet repressor recognition.
The effect of single base pair alterations of the Tn10 encoded tet operator on recognition of Tet repressor was studied in vivo using a repressor titration system and in vitro by dissociation rate determinations of the respective complexes. Both methods reveal that the two operators, O1 and O2, which are in a tandem arrangement in the wild type, are recognized with a two-fold different affinity...
متن کاملSelection for Tn10 tet repressor binding to tet operator in Escherichia coli: isolation of temperature-sensitive mutants and combinatorial mutagenesis in the DNA binding motif.
We have constructed a genetic assay which selects positively for a functional interaction between Tet repressor and its cognate operator in Escherichia coli. In this strain Tet repressor blocks expression of lacI and lacZ. This leads to derepression of a lacPO controlled galK gene. The strain can be selected by growth on galactose as the sole carbon source and screened for the beta-galactosidas...
متن کاملInteraction of Tet repressor with operator DNA and with tetracycline studied by infrared and Raman spectroscopy.
Tet repressor (TetR) is involved in the most abundant mechanism of tetracycline (Tc) resistance of gram-negative bacteria. Raman spectra were measured for the class D TetR protein, for an oligodeoxyribonucleotide with sequence corresponding to operator site O1, and for the TetR:oligonucleotide complex. TetR forms a complex with [Ni-Tc]+, which does not bind to operator DNA. Raman and infrared m...
