Galactose repressor mediated intersegmental chromosomal connections in Escherichia coli.
By microscopic analysis of fluorescent-labeled GalR, a regulon-specific transcription factor in Escherichia coli, we observed that GalR is present in the cell as aggregates (one to three fluorescent foci per cell) in nongrowing cells. To investigate whether these foci represent GalR-mediated association of some of the GalR specific DNA binding sites (gal operators), we used the chromosome confo...
متن کاملGalactose-Binding Protein by the Cell Cycle of Escherichia coli
The synthesis of the periplasmic galactose-binding protein of E. coli is regulated by events occurring during its cell cycle, and proceeds in synchronized cells for only a short period after cell division is completed. Transport activity mediated by the fl-methylgalactoside transport system follows closely the synthesis pattern of the binding protein. A mutant, E. coli BUG-6, exhibits temperatu...
متن کاملThe amino acid sequence of the D-galactose-binding protein from Escherichia coli B/r.
The complete primary structure of the Escherichia coli B/r galactose-binding protein was determined by the automated sequencing of fragments produced by cleavage with cyanogen bromide, o-iodosobenzoic acid, limited trypsin digestion, mild acid hydrolysis, and Staphylococcus aureus strain V8 protease. The protein, which has 309 amino acids, is notable in the extent to which it differs from the L...
متن کاملConformational stability and domain coupling in D-glucose/D-galactose-binding protein from Escherichia coli.
The monomeric D-glucose/D-galactose-binding protein (GGBP) from Escherichia coli (M(r) 33000) is a periplasmic protein that serves as a high-affinity receptor for the active transport and chemotaxis towards both sugars. The effect of D-glucose binding on the thermal unfolding of the GGBP protein at pH 7.0 has been measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), far-UV CD and intrinsic tryp...
متن کاملgalactose-H+ transport protein, GaIP, of Escherichia coli
The binding of the transport inhibitor, forskolin, to the galactose-HI symporter, GalP, of Escherichia coli was evaluated by equilibrium and time-resolved fluorescence measurements. A quench in protein fluorescence of 8-12% was observed upon the binding of forskolin. The overall dissociation constant (Kd) for forskolin determined by fluorescence titration ranged between 1.2 and 2.2 suM, which i...
